My cousin gave me a free broken motherboard that would be an upgrade over my MSI B350 Tomahawk and I'm trying to fix it and I found the problem by burning my finger. It sits between the PCIE slots and reads "GS7133" and "RK1G9AKWA". Google shows me nothing about this or where to get a new one. As you can see I tried to get it out but my cheap Ebay hot air and solder iron just doesn't get it hot enough. I tried mixing the solder with my leaded solder it still won't come off. I'm afraid to use more hot air so I was thinking of using a dremel to grind the chip away and then using my soldering iron to remove the legs.
Can someone point me to where to get another one of these and also any advice on how to get this out?
