An Idea would be to send it back to XFX to have it repaired, or send them a picture of the card as you have posted it and see f they could tell you the capacitor type and model # and try and find one at an electronics outlet and replace it yourself. Was going to suggest Radio Shack as I know they carry them but then noticed your location.

XFX simply refused to help by saying they don't offer repairs though I got 2 cards from them :(

anyway i found the broken capacitor as well and reading on it says:

j9
100
16z

does anyone know what this mean and where can I find similar capacitor so I can use my card again?

Thanks

XFX offers a Double Lifetime Warranty on their cards. If you registered the warranty you might be able to RMA it and get a brand new one. I think I'd try that before I started soldering stuff to my card.

About the only things I would suggest are since you've found the capacitor try taking it to a electronics supplier (not a store) and see if they can match the one you have. And if so maybe they would fix it.

If you've already contacted XFX through their support ticket method chances are they're aware of the problem and won't honor your warranty.

The other would be to buy a broken card and hope that it failed not due to the capacitor you need and use it.
Unfortunately due to your location your options are limited compared to those of us in the U.S.
