Thanks all done. The ps3 is working a treat

reflowing is not a very good idea considering there are many places that will do a reballing for no more than 50€, plus reflowing will make the ylod appear again, and since you've already scr..ed with the motherboard the risk of an unsuccessful reballing increases, on the other hand, a reballing, if done correctly, should give your ps3 a few more years of life, maybe even make it live forever (if proper care is taken of course)

far more expensive here in the states for a reball snake
plus a bad reball can git the tec killed

but totally worth it considering that, if done correctly, it can make your system live a lot more

plus a bad reball can git the tec killed

that's why you gotta go for techs with more reputation, or techs that do not charge you unless they actually fix it

Hi there !

there are many places that will do a reballing for no more than 50€ ?
everyone in paris said that it is not a perfect science, have you tried ? what result did you get ?

Peace.
