I would really appreciate some help figuring out how to replace just the capacitor on my motherboard. I removed the back to replace the charge port and the smd capacitor had broke off loose in the casing. I have identified it as the light blue one in the photo attached. The identifying numbers are faded so all I can make out is “F 729” and what MAY say 330. I can't make out the voltage at all. I am trying to replace just the smd instead of the whole motherboard as the computer was still working fine before I took it apart and it looks like an easy fix if I can find the replacement. The “F729” is not bringing me any luck in finding a replacement.

Hi, sorry everyone for the inboxed message. The forum doesn't seem to work great on my phone.
stj - It is the silver can with the blue print. The writing on it is wore off but it doesn't look damaged. The black piece it sits in broke off with it and I immediately lost it. I don't know how to power up the board as I removed the charge port. I assume there are nodes I can touch with a multimeter but I wouldn't know where.
mon2 - I believe it is near the GPU. It is the light blue one in the photo I sent. I had already been looking at the schematic but I was unable to figure out which one it would be. I see you have two different voltages shown, can you explain why?
I would also appreciate help sourcing one without a long lead time too. The one below has a 15 week lead time.

Thank you for your patience as this is new to me but I am enjoying the learning experience.

In the linked schematics, there are 2 of the 330uf caps. One is near the gpu. The one you have linked is a good candidate. The lead time only applies if the part is out of stock. They are showing over 18,000 in inventory at this time. Be sure to solder in the same orientation since the capacitor has an orientation (+ and - side).
