bump plz tell me cuz i dunno weather to buy it

Sounds like it needs a reflow, im not knowledgeable about ps3 fixes but if a xbox has a video problem it needs a reflow.
im guessing this is the same principle
So if you can do it yourself (reflow that is, not w*nk) and it is on 3.55 and its cheap buy it!

ok thanks im still not sure tbf i no its on 3.55 ofw and it will cost me £85 altogether

wel i asked him y he cnt test it like 5mins ago

welll yhyh i will its on ebay anyway

a reflow is like a bandaid, it's a temporary fix. chances are it was already reflowed once since it says has been repaired. the proper way to fix it is to have it reballed( gpu is removed, all lead free solder is removed, and replaced with lead solder). It can cost $60-$100 depending on what places around you charge. sometimes with the pixelation and freezing problem, you need to replace the gpu, that could be another $40-$80 for a replacement gpu chip. so I'd say don't buy it, if you can't test it and even if you can test it think twice. A properly reballed system will never get ylod.

My mistake i did mean a reball, but you need a rework station.
