I have ordered this chip, but I can not find any info anywhere as to where does it require a gameshar/AP to play my backups or not? Thanks!

The magic 3 includes nothing but the chip. What size wires and soldering tip will I need to use for this? I have never soldiered anything before in my life, is it easy or would you sugest taking it somewhere and having it done professionally? Thanks!

It's not that hard. Which version PS2 do you have?
Just follow the install diagrams carefully and you should be fine.
Also, the Magic 3 is a noswap chip, so you will not need GS/AR to boot backups.
