Will that conductive grease dry up at all? If not, what if some dust got stuck in there?

This is fine for those people who have m/bs that allow multiplier adjustment but it is not a total solution for those (of us) who need to set the multiplier on the chip itself. This can involve cutting bridges which this kit does not address. However at $10 it's good value seeing as conductive paint is $7/mini-bottle alone.

This is a great kit. It has everything you need with easy to understand directions.
I used it and it worked great. However, I don't have the steadiest hand and have had to try several times to make it take.

serialb: I dont think it iwll dry and it should be fine if dust gets on it

BobSnob: Thats true however I would say 90% of motherboards that support Athlon XP CPUS will also let you change the multiplier in the BIOS.

xander5000: I also had to try a few times cause they are so small. I finally got it though
