All of a sudden it lost display. I was cleaning it with a brush. So I took it to repair guy and he used heating gun on a board and changed the thermal paste but no luck. Wanna take it to professional and have it fixed.

There is no proper way to repair GPUs.

At most, you'll be able to get it run for a few hour.
Then it'll go back to being dead.


If you've lost display, then
Have you tried removing the GPU Drivers and then see what color your screen is?
If it has artifacts such as blue/purple screen lines, pixelated colors, improper screen propotion, then your GPU Is beyond help.


Alternatively, If you dont get those.
You should try using a different cable, such as DVI.


Eitherway,
I believe it is a goner and time to look for a new one.

Tried without GPU, it showed display. The guy did run on a system before doing any repairing. No display either.

Why were you cleaning it with a brush?

What kind of a brush? It is not good idea to clean your GPU with a brush as it can contain static electricity. Plus you have to be really careful. Could've used a blower or something instead

Bro IMHO just like FUEL2009 dont waste money on this GPU. If something is faulty and even if someone good enough to diagnose it, still you will have really hard time finding the replacement part. Also that heat repair is plain BS and temporary even if it would have worked. I have visited so soo many repair shops in rwp ( not GPU specific ) all have heat gun, not for SMD components but for heating the PCBs and mobos just k shyd chal jai kuch.
Idr repair waly 95% hit and try method use krty hain instead of proper troubleshooting steps. ( acha ye try kr lety hain ya ye ya ye )
Idr technician b mostly hit and try hi use krty hain. Ap k fridge ka compressor farig hai and i just replaced a 100Rs capacitor and got it working fine.
idr mechanic khty hain that hmary hth feeler gauge hain and we can adjust 0.05mm clearance with hands ( which is of-course BS ).

May be i am getting a bit too negative but idr waqai "anni" machi v hai.

All the above story to please avoid repairs as much as you can unless you are 100% sure about the person who will be repairing.

I havent given the answer you were looking for about " do you know someone who could give em another life? I mean a professional repairing guy..any? " but better not waste money or time.
I think [MENTION=9503]mave3[/MENTION] is an experienced person in GPUs and might give you some final words worth more then ours on experience base.
