his vids tell it all he doesn't clean the chips properly he is also grinding the iron on the bga not good. There is no need for all that tinfoil either. I use mek to clean the chips with two reasons it eats the hell out of the thermal paste and flux residues but most important removes moisture. I have never had an unfixable virgin console. Just because you have an expensive machine and slight knowledge doesn't mean you know what your doing. When I opened west coast consoles in Reno NV I was constantly repairing the other shops screw ups. I would only trust people on this site who know what they are doing. Reballing is a skilled trade and took me some time to learn well worth it I might add. He could have possibly reballed a dead gpu onto the board don't know why the hell you would first thing I do is check the resistance on c5d5 to see if it needs replacing and then again I check it after its been reballed. For ease on my part I just have about 50 reballed chips here so when I recieve your board I can just lift clean and flow all in one motion instead of taking hours it takes 10 minutes and then I reball the chips at night if they are good if the resistance is near the end of its lifespan I just toss them. I also have a 6 month guarantee on reballs.
