strip it down to the motherboard and put suspended on two blocks that can take substantial heatget a heat gun and slowly do circular motion moving up and down in coloums for 10 minutes about 4-5 inches away then circular motion over the cpu and gpu for about 3-5 minutes then back over the whole motherboard again and leave for about 2 hrs to cool down and wire back up

No point paying for it to be fixed as sooner or later it will YLOD again there is no escape just fix it yourself and trade it in at a game shop, hoping hey dont check the warranty sticker :P, of coruse it needs to be working or they wont take it
