My brother did this several times on his Asus laptop motherboard for over a year (“many” times he said) and got some extended life out of it before he was forced to replace the computer.
I recently did the procedure on an out-of-warranty GTX 780 Ti but sadly it was at a friend’s house and he only had a small toaster oven… the temperature was too hot and the capacitors begin to pop off the board like popcorn after only 8 minutes… a bit of entertainment, but no result
Sadly when you pulled back the bezel you missed that it’s not a separate LCD but part of the top cover those screws at the bottom just hold a panel in place at the bottom.
Good guide otherwise.

The card did eventually fail, i believe around 4 months later - the guy ended up buying a new card
Anyone reading this guide in 2016 - please note that the premise is a bit flawed, you're not really "re-flowing" the solder on the circuit-board, at least that's not the part that fixes the card usually, it's a temporary expansion or contraction of the "bumps" underneath the surface-mount chips the GPU or memory modules that causes the card to work again (at least for a while) the upshot of this is that even a temperature that doesn't melt the solder can actually work for a while as well.
you can also use a junk credit card or similar, or a plastic spoon
Final note: it might or might not work depending on the problem with your card, and the type of card, however if the card is a paperweight already, it's worth a shot! ;)
I fixed my friends dead out-of-warranty Leadtek Geforce 8800 GTS 640MB card using this procedure
That was 3 weeks ago, and he's still using it daily since then
We forgot to plug in the fan connector and his temperatures reached 124C while playing a game
Since then he reconnected his fan and it's working fine
Thanks for reading, hope it helps someone
