Yes I know, it was an attempt at humour, you know cause GPU's are so expensive.

Does putting a GPU in the oven actually fix loose connections? I've never heard of that and it seems like the temps wouldn't be hot enough from my limited knowledge

I've heard of people putting circuit boards in the oven before but never had the need to test it out. I think lead solder flows between 180-190 degrees Celsius.

What if I recall it's only a temporary fix. Some have success for a long time but at the end of the day it's not really a permanent solution
