well the title is already a question...is there any way to tell cpu or gpu (inegrated) is completely dead or solder joints cracked?
For example i was trying to repair one laptop and finally using ddr3 tester i found that cpu solder joints are cracked..because when i pressure the cpu towards the motherboard in some point the lights were on on ddr3 tester, but without pressure some lights were off indicating that something is wrong between cpu-memory comunication... so i reball it and now its fine...but what about gpu and other cpu but without ddr and other tester? is there any way of telling for sure that either dead cpu/gpu is dead or cracked in solder joints?
Thank you!
