I think the kp 6.66 should do the work:p

@Crusty how would 560UF 4v work on the memory recapping?

Most people say use what you have as longe they are low ERS. I see a lot of people using 470UF 6.3v, also 560UF 4v. mostly everything works. But higher "voltage" value will say the cap can take more voltage. So if you have a 100UF 1.5v and run over 1.5v the cap will blow!

But don't use caps with higher UF than 1000 I think. Patch at Overclock.net had problems with his 1500UF 6.4v caps at his 5870.
