    How else would you suggest attaching them?

    I hand solder components in a 0805 package, that is about 1/4 the size of a 1206 package, as another side note 0805's are smaller than the body (no gull wing leads) of a SOT-23.

    i dont suggest attaching anything to the motherboard. they are not ment to be altered and you will screw it up if you dont know what you are doing.

    Frakk is right, if your not confident dont mess with it, I however have replaced caps and done other mobo\psu hacking in the past with no ill results, but I've been doing it for a while.
