Infected Visuals

I looked into this more, and isolated the issue. The 2nd chip on my 3rd strip seems to be desoldering itself or dying in some other way. If I apply pressure in that exact point, it starts working again.

I have had this PC running for about a year now in this configuration, and all of a sudden my last sixteen LEDs on my commander pro's channel 2 just freeze, and it either requires me to unplug them, or a full reboot to correct it (which only works sometimes, and not for long.) Does anyone know the cause of this? Is it the controller, the strip or Icue? This just started happening 2 days ago.
