What is the likelihood that the xclamp mod and a fresh coat of arctic silver on the cpu/gpu will fix an E74 error?

Xclamp fix can repair an e74, but not in all cases. E74 is one of those problems covered by the 3 year warranty. I'd go that route first if you can.

If xclamp fix doesn't work, you can try a heatgun to the HANA chip to reflow the solder. But getting the temp right is... delicate. Last time I tried it I overheated it, and the chip came off of the contacts. Oops.

Just get it reballed do use x clamp fix it breaks it even more.
X-Clamp Fix + Fresh coat of Arctic Silver 5 on the CPU/GPU = 360 now works great, no more RROD!
Thanks for the advice,
