Recommend a good soldering iron

[KPJ]

I'm about to do a vmod on my 9800 Pro and my DFI LP NFII B.
Could you please recommend a good soldering iron (LINKS are appreciated :))?

Could someone please make a checklist, for what I need to buy for vmodding my video- and motherboard (again links are appreciated :)).

Thanks

We hada big thread on soldering a whyle aggo.
Might help to do a search

Personally Id recomend a 25watt antex with a thin flat tip.

[KPJ]

Yeah, I did a search, but the ones mentionend are quite expensive. I'm looking for a cheap, but still respectable soldering iron. Can you recommend such a soldering iron?

7 buck 40 watt one from radioshack

What should I use for soldering the wires on to the pins?

[bh2k]

Rosin core soulder

[KPJ]

Right. Thanks.

What about wire? Some UL or something?

[Holst]

for wire you want 30awg multicore copper wire.

Is it neccessary with a anti static wrist band, when you messing with your rig?

Here's the list:

30-Gauge Wire for Wrapping-White http://www.radioshack.com/product.asp?catalog%5Fname=CTLG&category%5Fname=CTLG%5F011%5F010%5F003%5F000&product%5Fid=278%2D502
2 X 10KW 0.75W 15-Turn PC-Mount Trimmer http://www.radioshack.com/product.asp?catalog%5Fname=CTLG&product%5Fid=271-343

But need to find some 200K VR for the vdimm mod and vcore mod on DFI LP B. I can use the same wire for vdimm and vcore right?

Holst,
Do you know any place in Europe, that sells the correct VR's?

safety advise for you and your components is a very bad thing so i had to remove it.
