Hey is this a good deal. I have a D2C board and I have no clue how to soldier so should I get this?
The article found: http://www.techsick.com/articles-comple … chip.shtml
Chips I can buy: http://www.techsick.com/shop/Completely … 16188.html
http://www.techsick.com/shop/Completely … 16187.html
Board info: Your Drive Chip is most likely GC2-D2C.
Your Drive Pins are most likely not cut.
Do I need a screwdriver with these, if so can someone point me towards one? Also I live in the US and without shipping being a ton can someone point me towards a US store that would sell the soldierless chips?
Also does the WiiClip have a problem with covering airholes on the dvd drive? Like for example would this cause over heating?

Modchipcentral will do all that for you. They are in Canada and you could possibly get your chip in less than a week. Just pick a clip, then pick from the dropdown that you want the chip included, soldered-on, and with the tri-wing screwdriver. It will all be bundled in a price and package for you.

I agree 100% with "KinG_Td" that's where I got mine from, they had a special price for the D2Pro9 v2 bundle($69.95 with $5 extra soldered together), they still have it in fact, it took about a week for mine to be shipped and received, I installed the clip in my brother's Wii and so far there are no problems, all games that I burned for him all loaded up including SSBB and Mario Kart, good luck

Which one should I get? Like the chip.
And is it pre modded? I don't want to soldier anything and with the link I have it's all read all i need to get is the screw driver.
Is the site I posted okay?

Hey KinG this is the one I need to get as well isn't it? My chips a GC2-D2B so this would be correct.
Got Modchips up at the moment just need to finish the payment.

D2B would NOT work this that clip. get the Wasabi clip if you have a D2B. All you have to do is just cut the 4 traces on the Clip

i guess that would be a better price. Thats odd because i compared the 2 last time and i swear it was more expensive for the bundle

hey no problem, I was shocked as well when I saw that, I jumped on it for my brother's Wii before it was too late,
hey they list it for the following chipsets D2C or DMS/D2A/D2B

I thought the D29Pro was the best? Doesn't matter just as long as it's upgradeable and lets me play backups which I have safetly stored in various locations all around the net lol
KinG I don't think I will be getting a clip with it, I'm a SMT solderer (sorry should be say "was") that was one off the best.

Then again I would probable be better getting the clip and soldering the chip on at home. Would be less hassle if I had to remove it.

you COULD do that. Its just for people who dont know how to solder.
BTW, the D2Pro9 is pretty much one of the best chips out there today. I said that the CLIP would not work for you since the Clip is made for D2C and D2C2 only, however you can get the D2Pro9 chip itself and solder it to a D2B, D2A, DMS

Hey no probs looks like I will be buying just the D29Pro then and tri-wing screw driver.
Time to dust off the soldering iron...... ![]()

oh yeah btw my wii is from ntsc is that okay with that clip, and its completely soldierless right? I'm just making sure cuz i dont wanna blow 100 dollars.
Yeah totally I can help with problems when i get this thing I think I'll order it on monday.

i dont think the region should be a factor on the clips. a few of the chips needed to be jumped for a certain region. need to double check and get back to ya on that
EDIT: seems like the region will matter on some chips. there should be a notes option when you're ordering. just let them know what region you are in NTSC-U/PAL/NTSC-J. I think they should be smart enough to set the region that you live in by default.
