Thats pretty awesome and it probably causes some of the solder in damaged areas to reconnect, but hey if the card is already dead it shouldn't be a problem at least testing this

You might want to check out that mobo too... It's very similar price and spec wise to the Gigabyte one you picked, but has no onboard video (but you're getting an awesome gfx card anyway), but gives you the ability to get faster RAM.

Awesome video cards don't do any good when they break and you can't use your awesome PC untill you get a new one because it's video-less.

FYI... baking the card in the oven fucking worked...... haha insanity.  I ran tf2 on higher graphics than i usually do for 15 mins and no sign of crash....

now wtf do i do? keep the new stuff that arrived today and be poor, or send it back... ahhh i guess i'm keeping it, but fuck! who wouldda thunk it?

Yeah my friend does this all the time. We were about to do it to my old video card until we realized a couple transistors blew up. Oh well I have a shiny new one now.

yea so on a side note.. 1. I built my pc last night and it went as smooth as possible.  1 boot up and all drivers up and running within a few minutes.  2. the quality of PSU is absolutely out of this world.. if you need a new PSU, BUY the one i did... jeez it's awesome! so organized and has options for fan running post power off and sensors with lights ive never seen such crazyness on a damn psu haha
