Baking? Like, you were going to make a dessert?

[Jodomcfrodo]

You meant the power connector for the fan right? Easiest and least risky is to take the coolor off, plug it back in and put the cooler back on.

What do you mean by the fan header? If you mean you pulled the white plastic piece off of the pins, then you can just push it back on.

post a picture of the header

[Sharif]

post a picture of the header

i forced the header back through the hole but i had to remove the broken 1s on the header

i then put them in the fan header

so that when i connect them back they touch

@iNarcissist

can you tell me how can i test it,without putting it in the motherbourd? (so that it doesn't over heat = fire)

[iNarcissist]

okay, so from what i understand there should be 3 contact points under the header, try soldering the wires on to the contact points, other than that i dont know what u can do...

Can you take a picture of the actual damage done to the card? Then we'll have a better idea of what's going on

there is only 2 points ( i mean originally only 2 )

but its a 3 pin header with only 2 pins

Can you just take a picture

i have the header put inside those two pins i was talking about and took the broken pins and put them in the fans wire header 

and i put it in the oven after that,i can't take picture because i need to test if my experiment worked 

[iNarcissist]

well, if theres only 2 pins same thing applies, use a soldering iron and just solder the 2 wires on to the contactpoints, shouldnt be too hard? as long as you have a soldering iron that is

but i don't have the solder...... 

[iNarcissist]

solder costs like 1$ a soldering iron though costs alot more so i hope its the solder you dont have.

solder is around 4.5$ (converted)

thanks i have to go buy that and also learn how to use it

thanks

[iNarcissist]

Good luck, if you encounter any further problems dont be shy to ask

[Sharif]

Dude thanks!!!! a lot

with out your post,(when you talked about solder)

i never would have known what to do.i was thinking a lot and finally,know what to do 

basically i have to remove the previous solder and wires and add new ones but the problem is i have no (zero)experience to how to use solder  and how to remove,

so i was thinking and thinking,i finally got it,there is this tv repair store nearby

he can do it for me 

thanks i really appreciate it,without your post i would have never thought about this and i would have given up 

thanks and now to take it to him

but the odd thing is everytime i touched the GPU my hands were shaking......and i would have gotten depressed as its my fault,if i have been patient this wouldn't have happen

anyway thanks

Happened to me once. No big deal, attach fan to a fan controller, or the PSU, or even the motherboard, if you want to control it through software.

 

I really don't recommend taking the card to a repairs shop, unless you don't have to pay for the repair. Because baked (reflown) cards work only for a short while. It's very common for them to die again after a week/month. You don't want to invest money into a part that's going to die soon, or do you?
