ì like the powercolor devils graphics card have the 5700x myself, didnt even remember the brand ;p haha but it works very good, if you like to tweak it that is, atleast because the original drivers didnt work for me that well, but is nothing new @ amd i have heard they got way better driver wise but i still run 3rd party nimez pro radeon drivers instead of the commercial ones. component wise i wouldnt know.

learning a lot watching your channel!!

You are great to share your experience and knowledge

Always awesome work great vid man you do a good job , been wanting to learn soldering better , anyway maybe you could do a pointers vid sometime when doing a repair but great vids keep up the great work !

Thank you for your help! It works perfectly!

Amazing work.❤️

Well done, nicely done video, thanks 🙃

for the gigabyte fan header pins being swapped, could be that just the plastic guide that goes around the pins on the PCB got removed and put on backwards, so the only way to plug it in was in the flipped direction.

a similar thing that happened to the 1080 ti happened to my 3080 12 gb from msi, the single hdmi port has extreme artifacting when connected, but the display ports all work normally. thankfully all i use is display ports so its not the end of the world.

You could check connections. Sometimes it's a crappy HDMI cable or HDMI splitter or HDMI switch that's causing these issues.

I'd love to see a video for laymen, showing what you're doing... flux, solder, all that, not instructional, just explaining how it works.

could you please tell me which rework station you are using, is it big enough to do PC motherboards and do you recommend it? Thanks in advance.

Hi can you, can you give me advice on changing the memory on any gpu, problem is that when i replace a memory chip, in like 50% of the time same memory chip dies again after some time im use like one month, i think its the memory controler in gpu itself but is it that common to have bad mem controlers? and how can i suspect a bed memory controler.

how about if fans speed at low rpm at full load, and high rpm in idle . i have 2 cards like this.

Hey man love your channel! I wonder what is the WD-40 for

@northwestrepair

Жыл бұрын

not sure. maybe was just sitting on the desk

If the fan pins are in reverse order I suspect that the connector shell was pulled off the board (leaving the pins in the board) at some point and put back the wrong way round. Real easy to do especially if the connector is warm. I've been trying to track down all the handy test equipment you use in your videos and I've got most of it worked out but I can't get anywhere with that "data line tester". I'm assuming it tests each PCIe lane for short/open by looking for the transmitter/receiver impedance, which sounds real handy. Any tips for finding one? Googling the name on the board doesn't work if everything on it is Chinese (at least not for me).

1. I OCR'd a screenshot of the name (after some tweaking and color reversal, cause free OCR is baaad) and here's what it came out with: [ AGP PCI-E顯卡維修栓 ] 2. I googl'd that and tweaked the search a bit and came out with the search term: [ AGP PCI-E 16X ] 3. Googl'd that yet again and found the product: [ AGP PCI-E 16X Dual-purpose socket tester ] - available on aliexpress for roughly $40 4. You're welcome.

What is the temp for reflow?

If it ain't broke, fix it until it is. That's my motto!

With the first video. I think what happened is the original owner tried to remove the fan header and the bracket on the motherboard came off with the header and they could not remember which way it went back on and put it on backwards I think.

Hi, can you make a video on how to flash a mining gpu into a fully gaming gpu

@northwestrepair

Жыл бұрын

You dont need to flash it, you just need to open Nvidia control panel and select your mining GPU as a primary source for gaming. mining gpus dont have video output but so this way image comes from onboard video while gpu power is from mining card.

very nice work! regarding the annoyance of needing to go via the igpu to see the console on amd cards, you could try to use ssh to access the terminal from another pc. you essentially would only need to make sure that there is some kind of ssh server running on the t-server and that you have a network connection between the two computers. maybe this helps :)
