OK I NEED HELP!!! I PUT VIDEO CARD IN MICROWAVE BCZ I DONT HAVE OVEN... AND IT WAS MY ONLY CHANCE.. SO IT WAS GOING GOOD FOR THE FIRST 5 SECONDS AND THEN I START SEEING BLUE LIGHT EVERYWHERE... ITS STILL IN THE MICROWAVE RIGHT NOW BUT I COVER IT WITH BATHROOM TOWEL SO I THINK IT WOULD HELP?? .. WHAT DO I DO NOW? PLSS HELP I DONT KNOW IF I SHOULD OPEN MICROWAVE OR TRY TO TURN OFF???? MY DAD AND MOM GOING TO KILL ME IF THEY COME HOME!!! PLSS HELP THANKU
today i also put my XFX 8800 GTS in oven after my Pc wont boot at all...not even Post screen...after check graphic card was the problem...i had nothing to loose...i had bought it 5 years ago so i just tried this trick.....WELL HERE IT IS BACK TO LIFE...VERY HAPPY AT ALL....BELEIVE IT OR NOT,THIS IS HELL TRUE!!!!!I HAVE TO THANKS THE MAN WHO DISCOVERD IT....THANKS ALOT!!!!
I just did this, the GPU wasn't harmed at all. However I think this only fixes your GPU if you are getting weird artifacts on screen and lines and whatnot. I don't think it will fix a blank screen dead GPU.
@t3hPoundcake I did it when my 8800GTX was completely dead a few months ago and it worked, still using it now. It wouldn't even take my monitor out of power saver mode before I baked it.
@1CaptainAustralia1 Really? Mind telling me your exact temp and time? I tried this with my 8800, same problem wouldn't even go out of power save mode.
@t3hPoundcake 200C / 390F for 10 minutes, pre heated the oven first of course. Let it cool down for half an hour, put the fan and heatsink back on, and it worked like new straight away.
@1CaptainAustralia1 I'll give it one more try, I'm ordering a gts450 in like 5 days anyway so its not a huge deal, but I've been without a card for like a month, really ticks me off seeing that I just upgraded processors/ram/mobo etc.
@t3hPoundcake In most cases it will fix blank screen video cards. Believe me, i tried it. Also: if you do not cook it long enough, the issue will come back.
@t3hPoundcake hehe ok ok i wont put it in the microwave. My gas oven its not with a temperature control or with a timer so i think i will still take my chances with it. I have 2 dead 8800gt so im gonna try , at least with one of them.
This method is working only when the card artifacts! And another important thing is, if you do this method in an oven dont bake any food in it coz this proces is very toxic!
@n0f3aR629 My nvidia 9800gt when i try to paly a game it jsut freezes had the card for over a year now when ever i open say solitair for example the computer freezes and after around 15-30 mins teh pc just freezes when i use the computer without the card it runs fine know whats up? anyone!!!
@superman83kg The card was overclocked? Maybe its overheating try to change the thermal paste on the GPU or maybe the gpu cooler its full with dust....
@n0f3aR629 i meant it freezes in screen not the card the cards temps are fine 40-50 degrees the fan is spinning fine ive unscrewed all teh screws done them up again dusted it out its got a shit load of paste on tehre from when i bought it almost 2 eyars from now
i also heard that if u put the water on the card while in pc it will sparkle and start working again try it out it even sparkle the motherboard sow its cooler ^^ xD
i tried this on my 5 year old 6800gt... before i tried i had major artifacts everywhere even in bios.... also red lines, multicolor, and random letters and shapes on screen. i put it in the toaster oven and now! it doesnt even post.... killed my card even more, epic fail....
I "Baked" my two 8800 GTX's both at the same time in the oven. They are both working and i'm using them right now in SLI while i'm posting this comment =) Been playing Bad Company 2 with no problems.
I find it odd he says the RMA is a "long story", something there sounds fishy. I've sent 3x 295 back for RMA at eVGA and I didn't have to pay anything and the shipping was very fast.
By doing this you are actually voiding the warranty from eVGA, so hope they don't watch this video.
the oven thingy at the begging sounded so wack XD but now that you explained and i did some research it sounds like it might work :P, hope it does for you
Dude, once you bake it, I don't think you will be able to RMA it. Sorry to hear you been working a lot, I have been working no less than 60 hrs. a week, now thats a lot.
Maybe with the extra money from working, you could by a cheap light, so it doesn't look like you're in the dark all the time. lol just a thought
No wasn't intended to be harsh, I was just suggesting that it would improve the lighting on his vids.
Cameras/camcorders need a lot of light, for a cheap light the the payoff is tremendous. I use two $10 lights from Home Depot (any local hardware store) and the video quality is crisp, sharp and clear. Check out some of my vids if you have time and you will see for yourself.
that really sucks that beast of a card is pretty much a big expensive paper wait, hopefully the baking works, thats ok rick, we all know ur busy : ) , nice vid
I had an 8500GT that would freeze with colors when i turned in my pc sometimes. I would just unplug the pc for a few minutes then plug it back in and it would work fine.
haha that should be interesting!! would you like to barrow my heat gun? or maybe buy one at home depot for $17.99 idk just a though lol.. But don't do that rick becuase I want to see you put it in an oven lol! 5/5
This is why I got a 9600GT and refuse to upgrade for a while, lol. I actually kind of expected it to have the same problems as the 8800GTX/Ultra since it's huge and hot as hell. Guess I was right. :(
cant you heat gun it? i did it to my xbox 360. i had graphic problem like weird lines and green and pinky stuff everywere than i got a RROD. i heatguned it for 2 minutes. works fine now
its not always NVIDIA any video card manufacter will have problems. I havent had 1 problem with NVIDIA but ATi on the other hand all shit load of problems.
This is a waste of time and videos like this should be deleted. This shows nothing / proves nothing / is good for nothing. What a goof!

I have a questions icne your talking about your card dying.
is there a typical life span for video cards? before you decide to bake it?
or does a card just die out because of over clocking?
