You have the scaler chip (H/ANA), southbridge, ICS chip (network chip) the 4 or 8 ram bricks, the CPU and you also have the capacitors which can give up the ghost.

Your E74 is also not just related to a bad connection on the GPU but it can also mean the GPU has died, it only takes time and heat for this to happen. Getting it reballed just on it's own does not mean it will last forever, there is still the crappy little heat sink sat on the GPU which does not aid a lot in cooling so those marathon gaming sessions take their toll

haha I thought he said....troll

just elaborating on what was already said.....

I was reading over it so fast I glanced for a sec and though you were calling someone a troll. :pharte:
