It all depends on your level of technical expertise and if you can't afford to replace the motherboard. There seems to be a good deal of reference out there, including this site: How ANYONE Can Replace Leaking Capacitors

Hi alittle extra advice.. It's not to hard I have done this many time the best method is to get some soderwick it's like braded coper wire you put this over the solder and put the iorn on top and it sucks up all the solder in the the wick this is a must becasue the motherboard is delicate and this protects it from burn and makes it easy to remove the faulty CAP then solder in the replacements
