    Update on other GPUs for memory upgrades. I am currently working on a 3060 Ti to upgrade it to 16GB. Other 3000 series are work in progress. A BIOS edit would be required to double the memory on these GPUs. Once the 3060 Ti is completed a video with step by step process will be uploaded. RTX 4000 series cannot be upgraded as they all use 2GB modules and are the highest capacity modules produced to date. GPUs that can be upgraded are 3060Ti, 3070, 3080 10GB, 3080 12GB, and 3080 Ti from the 3000 lineup. The 3000 series is a work in progress starting with the 3060 Ti. Don't forget to subscribe and hit the bell to get notified when the video is released.

      What is the price on that upgrade? U should simply make a video before after performance and compare performance to 4000 series.

      My setup is more suited for repairs as i use older hardware. For example my CPU is i7 3rd gen. Older hardware works well with the testing software needed for repairs. Since i am also getting into upgrade i do intend to have a benchmarking setup with the latest hardware (CPUs, GPUs etc.) so i can pitch it against each other. Until i can afford to set this up I ill try and make a basic comparison in my future videos like before and after kind of thing. 😁

It supposedly is a much faster processor and needs higher speed to function properly. My opinion? Yeah, it would be awesome if we could add VRAM by switching sticks or something.

  • @MelanieNewbery
    @MelanieNewbery 3 месяца назад +23

    one reason to have more vram on an older card is so that you can do 3D animation rendering with it. GPU based 3D rendering requires you to load the model into VRAM for each card so the amount of VRAM becomes a limit to the complexity of scene that you can render. more VRAM equals more complex scenes. You can also use multiple cards and split which cell they render to improve render times but you cannot stack VRAM so having more VRAM is very helpful. keep up the good work.

Spread paste if on bare core/silicon/diffusion barrier. Use whatever method you want if it's on a IHS.

    If you are wondering about the memory upgrade and why someone would want this , it does allow play at higher resolution for gaming. Most importantly tho , it allows multiple graphic intensive processes to run at once. This benefits Virtual machines , 3d modeling , game developers , and video editors. Even with multiple monitors this will make a difference.

      All information about straps is available in the schematic of the GPU. It also mentions how the configuration should be. For example 1 stands for high and 0 stands for low and M strands for medium. 1 connects 100k resistor to 1.8v, for 0 the resistor is connected to ground. As you play around you will get the hang of it. Start reading schematics it's fun. It gives a lot of insights.

    Maybe for an other Video.
    Is it possible to double the VRAM on a RTX4090 or RX7900XTX?
    And why is no Chip on M11?

    • @GraphicsCardRepairs-tk7ql
      @GraphicsCardRepairs-tk7ql  8 месяцев назад +7

      As of now, RTX 4090 cannot be upgraded beyond 24GB of VRAM. Micron GDDR6X is only available in 2GB modules in 21Gbps and 24Gbps. Though it is possible to install 24Gbps modules (supported) to increase the bandwidth however the capacity cannot be increased.
      The returns on investment in upgrading from 21Gbps to 24Gbps modules will be negligible and benefit minimal (It is a theory based on calculations and yet to be tested though.) If in the future I get my hands on a 4090 and a user is willing, I will put this to the test and measure the difference in performance.
      If in the future Nvidia launches an RTX 4090 Ti or a 5090 it will be launched with the 24Gbps modules. (Speculation)
      It's the same with 7900XT or XTX. 7900 XT and XTX use GDDR6 memory and the bandwidth of each module is 20Gbps. Samsung is sampling a 24Gbps memory but it is still sampled and not mass-produced. So for 7900 XT and XTX we are using the top possible memory.

      @@tonyd7644 Buying dead boards to practice is a good idea. You can practice all sort of things. once you are confident practice on older working hardware then switch to the new ones. remember its much harder to remove a chip on a 30 series and 40 series card than a older generation. quality of solder is different. Higher temperature are required to replac components.

    I would to have this done to a 3080, to go from 10GB to 20GB of VRAM. That would make a real 4K high settings gaming GPU out of one that never had enough VRAM from new. I have nothing close to the knowledge or skill to pull this off.

      3090 went up in price last time I checked. 2080ti and 3080 have gone down. The 2080ti has much lower power draw, undervolts to 150w easily and still fast in stable diffusion. Priced could change a lot once next gen drops. I would do 2080ti if you were to run it for long sessions or go with 4000 series. 3090 is a good option too if you aren't too concerned about power usage. The repair guy games its possible on the 3080 as well.
