Has anyone used this? Any reviews tips or info on this chip? I've been softmodding, but thinking that this chip might be the way to go. Any advice would be quite helpful.

I know people that have love/hate relationships with their solderless chip. Firstly, some solderless chips actually even require a little soldering. But, the biggest complaint is the chip comes misaligned and loose causing your machine to not run.

I highly suggest using a pin header and solder method. It's much more stable. You dont' have to worry about chip movement or alignment. Also, some solderless chips can actually scratch the motherboard and damage traces causing motherboard damage and machine not working.

Im using the Xenium Ice solderless.........very easy to install and no soldering required. It does come mis-aligned every now and then but it doesnt bother me.
