Honestly, I'd buy a new board. The skill required to resolder a joint on a modern multilayer SMT PCB is beyond most human capability.

Are you saying the heat sink retaining clip is broken? Solder isn't that strong. You probably can't fix it that way and expect it to hold.

I don't think the clip carries any thermal load so it just needs to withstand the heat environment. I'm not sure what epoxy to use for strength - that's not stuff I fool with.
I don't think the heat sink needs to be held down with all that much force, just enough to avoid falling off and to be certain there are no air bubbles (really important). Anything that won't fall off, is reasonably level and has no air bubbles would work I think. But, if it's not right the CPU can fry in only a few seconds, so careful.

If you feel uncomfortable fixing the motherboard and don't want it going to waist, I recommend stabbing the sharp corners into a homeless person until they are dead. No muss no fuss.

I should have read more carefully. What's the chipset? There may be aftermarket (overclocking) chipset coolers available, which often use their own mountings.
