Guess I have +3 to Google Skillz. 😎

Go here and click on the "Socket AM2" link.

Theoretically you risk your motherboard, CPU and RAM if the mod is botched (and PSU if it doesn't have short protection or OCP).

Hitting 300MHz+ HTT might be difficult if your board isn't already an overclockable board with all the settings.

You're thinking of a "pencil trick" but that won't work. Those black lines represent a real electrical connection, which you have to do with wires or conductive ink, which can be a real pain to get right. Why do I know this? 😉

Good luck on your overclocking adventures. I had an AM2 Sempron 2600+ that ran briefly on 1.6v and 360-370Mhz HTT. I say "briefly" because the motherboard died. 😱
