You can paint the zero ohm resistors in using rear window defogger repair paint (from an auto supplier) or PCB repair paint (from an electronics supplier - same stuff, double the cost!) after desoldering the existing ones if you're unsure about soldering the existing ones back on - if you do that, use a toothpick t opaint it on. It's much more accurate than the brushes or pen tips these paints come with. Doing it like this rather than moving the original resistors also makes changing speeds much easier. I replaced the thermal compond pad (baaad) under the CPU heatsink with Arctic Silver 5
If/when I get brave enough to risk voiding the warranty on my 1.25 mini, I'll prolly choose to go for 1.50 by removing all three resistors. Is it fairly simple/easy to pop the resistors off without applying any heat to desolder (i.e., very carefully pry them off with exacto knife)?
