| + | [title] Solder Melting Point |
| [* icon_note] ***Be patient!*** -- if your oven has a window you'll probably see the solder melt when it gets really shiny. | |
| [* icon_caution] Heat the GPU slowly. | |
| [* black] 5 -10 mins at 200 - 220 C° (395 - 425 F°) | |
| [* icon_note] GPU completion times: PS3 - 6 minutes, Xbox - 4-6 minutes, desktop boards -12 minutes , laptop boards - 8-12 minutes, GFX - 8-15min. | |
| [* icon_caution] Use this as a guide only - not a golden rule, different materials will melt at different rates. | |
| [* icon_note] Re-flowing might work for some circuit-boards, but new more scientific data has revealed that most "quick, temporary" repairs like this are actually caused by expanding and contracting "Bumps" on the bottom of the surface mount chips such as the main GPU or the memory modules (which can happen at lower temperatures as well) |
