Classic. This was a common failure mode for the 360 as well. Used to fix friends 360s that had the red ring of death by tearing them down, tightening the braces underneath the heat sink, and adding an additional case fan.

Never actually had to escalate to reflowing the BGA mount underneath the GPU but recall tutorials of how to do that in a consumer oven.. thank goodness I never tried that one at home.

The real hack with the 360 with that issue was to wrap it in towels and turn it on so it'd cook and reflow itself. Absolutely bonkers that trick worked for anyone at all, let alone for enough people for it to be a "thing".
