Hi Kyle, I have seen these things and honestly I was about to buy one since I do hardware repairs. Thanks for covering them in your video! Also there are equivalent for ram slots and ram sticks too. I wonder how they would work, perhaps you can test these too in a future episode! As always, great video!!!

Thanks for sharing that one. It sure was a frustrating series of experiences for you, but it was quite instructive for me. I had never seen that socket gadget, it was pretty neat
