I wouldn't; especially when you can get a working used 7950 for $120.

When some soldering joints are broken you may can fit it with an oven. But I only give you 15% chance it works....

Mineral oil and 40 kg aluminium heat sinks are a perfect combination: 73 cores and a Titan X, Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Oil

If its a solder reflow problem I would give him higher than 15% upto 50% if he does it right. The issue is that we don't know that that is the problem.

Just don't even bother. The guy probably knows what he's doing and it's probably the core. Don't do it and save for something new.

Ah. Well I loved my Asus 7950, mine was the triple slot, didn't look closely but this may be the same card. Could handle 1.25 volts without getting toasty.

I seen them go for 80-100 on eBay, up to you If its worth the risk. Honestly wish you the best of luck to cut his price in half though
