I know my way around a motherboard, but have never used a soldering iron (nor do I currently possess one).
I need to (re-)solder a loose power jack to a motherboard and was hoping for some advice on what type/power/type of tip of soldering iron I should purchase for the job?
Also, do I need a specific type of solder to work with motherboards?
I've been looking on ebay and there are soldering irons ranging from about 20w to 100w and some come with de-soldering pumps and some don't etc.....
Help!
