Reflow ? Reball ? Heat gunning ?
0020 - can be either a dead power core to a Gpu. Or the connection pins of the power core of the Gpu are not making good contact with their counterparts on the motherboard.
But you could also be having a false over heating. If the heat sinks are not seated perfectly.
So - there is lots of room for variance given only what you have told us

No other repairs besides the X-Clamp repairs have been done. It doesn't show visual signs of needing a reflow/reball, so I wouldn't think it would need it. The console does boot (sometimes) when I press down hard enough on the CPU heatsink and boot it up. Any ideas?
