Hello everyone, I'm new here, I am just stepping into the retro computer game and purchased a used computer for cheap, I've been basically cleaning the crap out of it and replacing parts with what I have and putting in a hard drive. Anyways I have an Asus A7V266-E and it has some capacitors that have some bulging at the top, no bursting yet, fortunately, however, I do want to replace the affected caps to prevent any hardware damage.
The caps I require are:
3300uF
6.3v
105*C
The current ones installed are Nichicons. I plan on buying my new caps on Digi-Key and I've found Rubycons:

This is a list of caps that a guy on digilink chat said would fit my specs.
