Nintendo Switch With A Bluescreen: Does Heat Help?

Ғылым және технология

I bought this Nintendo Switch for $100 on eBay. Its fault is a bluescreen (BSOD). Can I fix this and rescue this Switch from the scrapyard, or did I waste my money?

    I used a small vice grip and clamped it hard enough to leave a dent on the top of shield above the CPU and it's been chugging along just fine since with some new thermal paste too

    Hi! Interesting approach, but I guess the problem might reoccur over time and with temperature changes. 😕 Keep me posted! 🫶

    heating chip with bad BGA connection is a well-know method of fixing faulty GPUs with artifacts, but it's always temporary. you need to properly reball the chip, heated chips don't survive more than a year usually

    Hi, sure, but even with a proper reball, you can't be sure it works for longer...

    @@CanWeFixThat it depends of the cooling system, if BGA mounting was done right during repair and chip doesn't overheat, it will live just as long as any other chip. Not saying anything against you though. Reballing is a very tedious procedure that requires expensive machines, so it's not like you could do anything better. It's still cool that it does work and it's always a pleasure to watch your videos. I'm bored of all repair shops that only change components on ribbon cables without any soldering or diagnostics.

    @user-xh3nm8oe2l I totally get it, and you are right. I realized afterward that the Switch was not getting any output via the dock. In the settings, it is just showing me the 480p setting. I am convinced that some connections underneath the BGA are getting me into trouble. 😉

    In the case of the switch soc, my reflowed blue screen switch is working for over a year now without any problem. GPUs from PC´s are way way different. Most of the time, not the solder balls of the gpu fail. Between the GPU Core and the PCB is also a layer with very tiny connections. These are the ones that fail and they cannot be replaced, so even reballing will not work long on GPUs. In case of the switch, the solderballs breaked due to excessive force, if they are properly reconnected, the switch will work like normal for years. I now what you are trying to say, but these 2 types are completely different. If the Reflow is properly done (lots of flux), it will last nearly forever.
