Household CPU pin bridging material?

[new boy]

Anyone got an idea of what I can use to bridge some pins (or pin contacts if you like) on an e8400?

It should be reversible, but secure.

Really don't wanna be buying anything if I can help it, as its only a bit of fun.

Thanks

I'll check out that conductive paint sometime. Also, my rear window heating elements don't work as there is a big scratch through them lol, so perhaps 2 birds with one stone there.

I'll take a stab - pin modding to up the multiplier on a board which doesn't support FSB overclocking, like an OEM HP or something

This, except it ups the fsb not the multi.

Well... If you mess it up and short the wrong pins, then its probably bye bye CPU.

Theres a reasonable chance the e8400 wont do 3.6GHz @ stock volts, and theres a reasonable chance the OEM dell motherboard wont do 400FSB (though I know of at least one working fine at 400fsb).

Luckily dell put some 800MHz ram in it for some reason, so at least that's going to be ok lol.

Probably 49% it'll work 49% it will be unstable and 2% i paint the pins when I'm drunk and blow it up.

It ain't that bad. It's only joining two pins that are next to each other to change the fsb from 333 to 400. There's even no other pins on two of the sides surrounding them
