I wouldn’t say it’s surprising, ultimately it’s just a controlled thermal cycling to repair some physical defect. It’s counterintuitive because there is a large mythos around “heat is always bad” for electronics and delicate items.
With the gpu or motherboard something has warped out of shape or a solder joint has become defective. Akin to heating up the top of a jar with a stuck lid.

- StrangeDoctor 6y agoTo be honest I’ve not really linked these two concepts together before so I could be missing something. Surprises are emotional responses to sudden or unexpected events. Counter intuition deals with the truth value of facts that go against what you might otherwise expect. I guess you could have a surprise reaction to learning something counterintuitive but I don’t think I have.
