Raspberry Pi Throwdown

Ok i finaly got round to buying some caps and going to try and mod this thing, i will post this effort in here rather than in the vmod section, i will need input from you Ed (bobnova) as i don't know a great deal about the ins and outs of these sort of things.
first things first these things are tiny to replace, just to get an idea of the scale of these things i took a pic of them next to piece of chewy
I don't know if these things have correct way round to mount them or are they universal, i don't want to put a negative end on top of a positive end lol
And one last thing, where are the voltage read points on the pi?

Cheers mate, I will try and get them soldered on over the weekend. I need to get one of those helping hands things to keep them secure while I try and solder them on as there slightly bigger than the ones underneath them and don't sit on very well (fall off just looking at them) it doesn't matter which way round they are mounted does it?
Need to find out what this guy is doing as it is impossible to score that high at 1200 arm freq unless its tweaked somehow, even massman has asked how!!!

Hahahah this is awesome. Totally reminds me of this: Arduino, same thing.
I would personally figure out what's failing -- memory, flash, voltage, etc, and redo that. You might have to go with internal memory if it has any for example.

Easiest way is going to be to buy an EPower and use that. Failing that, you're in for some soldering putting one together.
Or you could zombie a GPU, or even run a cable off a AMD motherboard to use that VRM (with a CPU installed and running, so you can change it in BIOS).
In any event, getting a high enough quality buck regulator is step1.

I haven't ever had a chance to do any of this, so we will change it to an ongoing thread. My htpc plans fell through, so my rpi is still acting as a streaming/htpc for a tv in my house. As soon as I get some kind of replacement, I will give this a try.
Top score so far is keny at 564.58 pps!! Well done!
