Your HMDI. The small gold pins, are plated in 24K gold to make better connection with your PS3. If you want to replace it you'll need a Soldering Iron, Thermal/Heat Gun. Also to make sure you have the correct model of the HDMI port. No, you won't lose your Jailbreak at all. Make sure you protect your console with some aluminium tape...

How is it an idiotic question, he's actually asking valid questions. What's idiotic about this thread?

Yes, you'll need to use the heat gun. Just to melt the solder around the pins. Therefore, allowing you to pull the HDMI port out. You'll need some solder braid as well. YLOD will only be caused if you place it over the RSX and not spreading the heat evenly. Which will cause the solder balls to combine. But changing the HDMI port wont cause YLOD. Watch some tutorials on drag soldering, removing components and you should be fine :p
