First you need to ensure, whether the soldering pad is good(image not clear). The trivial part is to identify the capacitor value!!!! Difficult to get schematic, give a try in Google or you need to get an alternate graphics card to find the value!!!
If you have any service station nearby, ask them to check, shouldn't cost much.

he replaced capacitor from a dead mobo , he also told that type of capacitors have same value by their size .

Good to know it's working. I'd be careful with such replacements. I had once a similar fix on my old 9500GT once. Still working fine.
