Help Idenitfy Component on GeForce 3

I've got a VisionTek GeForce 3 Ti 200. A couple of days ago, I pulled it out of my computer, and when I did, a small silver-colored round electrical component of some sort fell off of it. I don't know if the card still works correctly without it, but I'm sort of afraid to try it. I'd like to try to solder it back onto the card. The problem is that when it broke off, most of the two small leads coming out of it broke off also, and the tiny leads that are left are to small to solder with. So, I'm thinking I need a new one of whatever broke off, but I have no idea what I'm looking for. The thing I'm looking for is a small, cylinder-shaped, mostly silver-colored component. There are a total of 6 of these on the card, including the one I broke off. The one I broke is located just to the right of the rightmost memory heatsink on the card (there were originally two of these there, one right above the other). There are four more of these up near the VGA connector. The thing has a black stripe down one side of the top, and there are 3 rows of text on the top, which are as follows:

102
330
6E

I'd be very grateful if anybody can tell me what this is and where I can find a new one.
 
Take the capacitor to Radio Shack and see if they can locate one for you.
