BGA reballing isn't too expensive. You can get all the supplies for under $100 if you know where to look. (Much more economical if you buy a little extra solder paste and advertise that you fix consoles on craigslist to recoup the cost) Also, get some decent thermal paste like Arctic Silver 5, the tube of white goop that came with that PIII you have laying around won't cut it.
