I have done business with these guys in the past and they are great.!!! The kit looks interesting and you can't beat the price...if I remember correctly he sends by priority mail and he sends very fast too!

You can also do the same thing with a car rear window defog repair kit, some clear nail polish, some scotch tape, and a toothpick :)

Had to do this before there was any of these kits. I walked 10 miles to do it in the snow, too.

Really is pretty easy, though. I think the kit was like $6 or $7, and I've used it a couple of times.

Beyond the car defog kit, a soldering pen with a toothpick, an x-acto knife, or a needle will do fine. Never used the toothpick, but I assume that it would work...used the other two on my Thunderbird and XP processors....

The video was great !!! I Dloaded it and saved it for later reference... Wish it had a few extreme closeups, but it was very helpful otherwise...

Your gonna need some better cooling now... anyone reccomend a good mid/low cpu fan for Oclocking?

How would you say that this works? I have an XP 1600, and an XP 2000, 2 abit KT7A-Raid mobos with a Thermalright AX-7 with the fan called the: YStech 3 speed on each cooler.
