            If you gently flex the board does the pattern change

              reflow would do for some time, if you want to do the job done you have to reball them, or buy new ones.

                Sid,

                give it a try... flux it nice and reflow evenly
                tried one like that and its about a year now and still ok...
                just did cleaning after six months

                good luck!

                    Because the VRAM can be stuck to the heatsink by the thermal paste, the VRAM can be pulled from the PCB.
