I've had my R2 since September and I'd like to do a repaste. How hard is it to do? I don't want to mess anything up and have an issue.

Thanks a bunch.
I don't have the confidence to do the cooling mod. Will that be okay? I know with it, I could get better efficiency, but I feel like just the repaste should be adequate.
