Well, we'll see what happens. If I don't come back within the night, I probably killed it. I've got clear nail polish, scotch tape, a magnifying glass, and a defroster repair kit. Any last minutes instructions, oh great OC Crusaders?

Good luck! :D
alright...what is the best way to remove the HSF? Its the biggest pain in the butt. Is there any secret way to do it that you would reccomend.
Umm... Very carefully? If you have to use a screw driver, it wouldn't hurt to put tape on it so it won't be so sharp should it slip and hit the mobo.
Good luck ;)
GL, sir! :D
Take your time and go slow. Make sure none of your connections are touching each otherQuote:

Don't worry...I'm taking plenty of time, letting each pit dry before I go on to the next one.Quote:

Saps...what exactly would happen if my connections were touching each other?
The multiplier will either not unlock or unlock improperly e.g. set it for 12 and get 11; wierd stuff like thatQuote:

Be VERY careful not to get any on the little triangle by the L1's either as this will void your unlock as well ;)
but all of that is reversable though...correct? I can put some rubbing alcohol on it and start over.Quote:

keep us updated
cant u feel the sweat coming on. from the fear of screwing up hehe?
But somepeople, work best under pressure :)
The suspense is killing me....
I went the OC route with one of those kits, and even with the ease of removal of starting again, it was quite nerve-wracking.
