I've read here and there about premature video card failure due to soldering issues. I've also read that some folks actually bake their cards in an oven to attempt to fix the problem, with varying degrees of success. 😮
Does anybody know which cards are affected by these solder issues? I've heard some say that it started with the GF4 Ti4x00 series, and the Radeon 9x00 series. I've also heard that it may have started with the GF 6x00 series, but I can't find a clear answer. Does anybody know for sure?
Also, how serious is this problem? What might be done to avoid these issues on an affected card?
