Help me find Capacitors

I have an LG UltraWide monitor, which I love but at around 1.5 years old, it won't come back on. The light is on when it's on and off when it's off but now it just glows at about half brightness, regardless of how many times you hit the power button. I noticed all the menus where a bit slow right before this happened, which prompted me to unplug and plug it back in and then it wouldn't come back on.

I figured I would try and replace the capacitors because that has fixed two LG TVs but for the life of me, I can't find them. I think they are surface mount Aluminum Electrolytic but I can't find the correct ones, any help and do you think this will fix it?

Purchased on a corporate card so I don't know about the warranty thing and I'm pushing my office supplies budget as it is so no new monitor from the company.

I see these two and the following, all look normal, minus the weird ridge on the first two but from searching online, it appears normal.

The last time I tried to fix some surface mount thing it ended up going in the garbage.
