    I think it said someting like $15 bucks, i believe most good athlon OCing boards are going to unlock these chips automatically, and if it doesnt i believe you can wire mode your chip fairly easly.

    Seems like a hassle when you can just loop a wire around those 2 pins and unlock it that way. This is also $15..

    What a waste of $$. Chuck232 mentioned the 2nd easiest method I did the first myself which is merely to put the wire into the socket itself. No delicate hands are needed here.

    Looks like a good idea for people who don't want hassle or don't know what they're doing.

    Yeah I wish I had thought of this idea. Perhaps I can sell special unlocking wires that people can insert into their sockets. I'd only charge $10.

    Meh, might be something I'm considering. I have pretty large fingers so I hate messing with little parts (like this).

    Oh yeah, and I'm EXTREMELY lazy .

    This is true. This is coming from a kid who has the new Ultra's, yet he doesn't even have the rear speakers set up

    Hey, if I didn't have to bend over, then I would set them up. I'll probably give a pack of cigarettes to a friend and have him do it .
