WOW! Definitely the Anti Static Wrist Strap Band is a MUST as I most assuredly want to prevent ANY unwanted Electric Shock Discharge AT ALL COST!!!!!

 

Thanks for guiding me through this process. You THOROUGHLY give advice! I feel most blessed that my original question was routed to YOUR "inbox"!!!!!

 

With your blessings, I'M ALL IN!

My quad core processor is Out for Delivery TODAY! I have my anti-static wrist band and thermal compound applicator!

I have also found two more very helpful videos with clear instructions.  ANY FINAL SUGGESTIONS OR WORDS OF ADVICE???

 

I feel I am good to go!

UPDATE:

My CPU upgrade went very smoothly! I am so very thankful for being able to reach out to knowledgeable people who freely give of their time and talents to advise others in technology! I HAD a dual core processor a little over an hour ago, and now, I have a QUAD CORE PROCESSOR! Researching is very important, and I do feel a whole lot more knowledgeable now that I have gone through the process! MEGA KUDDOS!!!!!

 

Forever grateful!
