oh man i need a computer with these broken capacitors, just to heat it up like some old tubes before running

Broken caps are EVIL!

They can - and DO EXPLODE!!! (I've seen it!)

However, you can get mainboards that have built in audio with a Pre-amp section that uses Valves.

ASUS (bless them) did a DUAL valve Stereo Pre-Amp on one of their boards...

I'd LOVE to own one of them!
