I am going to attempt a cpu socket reflow as a last resort to try and fix this motherborad: ASRock 970 Pro3 R2.0
I've got the gist of the procedure. Do correct me if I am missing anything.
1. Cover everything but the cpu socket with aluminum foil
2. Use pen type flux to flux the area around the cpu socket and let if flow between the socket and motherboard.
3. Use heat gun to heat the cpu socket to ~200^C.
4. .........
5. Profit!
Questions:
1. Won't the CPU Socket itself melt at 200C?
2. Won't the solder at the back of the motherboard melt?
