I have started to have some problems with graphics, it manifests in having big pixeled lines, dotted lines in some dominating color. I can still see and play fifa 10 to some extent. I would post a pic but am at work now. I put new thermal paste but the problem is still there. Now this is the strange part, when I start xbox360 everything is ok. after a few minutes, problem appears, i restart again and can play for a longer period of time... normally it takes about 2 restarts and I can play longer.

Dont bother with the penny trick, get a reflow. If you cant afford a proper reflow, Take a look at w00lys guide for details how to do it with a heatgun.

All the penny trick does is add more pressure on to the chips so the solder points have better contacts with the board. Its a temp fix at best.

Plus this issue could be bad solder joints on the GPU also, so 2 birds with one stone and all that ;)
