ARandomOWL Posted April 21, 2011 Posted April 21, 2011 These PCBs get put through ovens when they are manufactured. Putting them back in won't burn the PCB Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy_Nate Posted April 22, 2011 Posted April 22, 2011 Please don't put it in an oven that you use for food... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waco Posted April 22, 2011 Posted April 22, 2011 Please don't put it in an oven that you use for food... Eh, none of the things coming off the card after being in the oven for a few minutes will hurt anything as long as the oven is aired out before the next use. Hell, I baked my engine mounts in the oven once to cure the silicone I was filling them with. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HydroFellow Posted April 25, 2011 Posted April 25, 2011 The success of baking a graphics card varies massively dependant on how well it is baked. For example, some people remove the card from the MO BOH and then bake it. Though this can yield pretty good results, I find that baking the entire system is far more effective. Here's a pic of my gaming PC which had a broken 5870 X4 in it. It now works perfectly after my friend let me use his blast furnace to heat up the system! http://maggiesfarm.anotherdotcom.com/uploads/dm-melted.jpg Regards, Ronald Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
