Time is often worth more than the parts. Intentionally trashed a Dell PowerEdge T620 motherboard because I was wasting my time coming back to it every couple of months trying to get it to work
I have had a couple of Asus code 79 boards in my shop. Asus list error 79 as a CSM issue and the only way I was able to fix them by replacing BIOS chip with a blank and programming using ch341a programmer. If the original BIOS is a "xxxx.cap" then need to extract the ROM 1st due to the 4k header Asus include. Best of my recollection it worked 50/50 :-)
Might be a stupid question, but did you try replacing the button battery on the board? I've seen a few of those boards with similar issues and replacing the battery fixed it
@@techyescity it could end up being the solder cracking over time, or blown parts on the bord that look okay, maybe re flowing the motherboard solder joints will work?
I had a Rampage IV Extreme that was dead and revived it by simply replacing the BIOS chip with a (pre-flashed) new one. Might be worth a go as it's potentially a very cheap fix. I just had someone from Ebay supply the new chip though (cost $10), as I don't have a flasher.

I just took a gamble on a listed “ Broken Z390 MSI Godlike” with a CPU error for $70 US! Got it home and fixed the pins in the socket that had been bent and now have a once $600 Motherboard or so for dirt cheap!!!
I built all my first computers from parts local companies and my school were throwing away because they were tested and found to be broken. Yet, somehow a teenage kid was able to fix them with some tinkering. Usually something just had bent pins or a blown component I could resolder, or it just needed cleaning or plugged in better. One hard drive that would not spin up, I fixed by loosening the screws and smacking the side against a table a few times while it was plugged in and attempting to spin up. After the third smack it spun up without issue. Whatever was stuck, I knocked it loose. I tightened up the screws then used it for the next ten years without any problems. I learnt through my experience that sometimes old parts just need some love and attention. Other times you've got to smack them around a bit until they obey.
Recently i bought an allegedly working office lenovo pc with an i7 4790s in it. When i got home and tested it, it didn't work and both the mboard and cpu turned out to be dead. Shit just happens sometimes. I can see how you're disappointed that motherboard didn't work. Cheers mate, love your vids!
Hi Bryan, I hope that you are holding up with that lockdown there. We have had some of it (being detained in the evenings and nights) but not nearly as bad as you guys have it. At least you and your dad have each others company. ;)
In my personal experience Brian (and to all) when a board is in this such stage. 9 times out of 10 it is related to the EPS. What ends up happening is some people mistake the PCI-e 8 pin power plug from EPS 8 pin CPU. From a modular power supply you may connect a 8 pin PCIE to a 8 pin EPS (on the power supply end. Some times people just do not pay close attention to the labels on the power supply unit.) Thus when plugging in the correct cable to the socket but the power supply isn't supplying the correct amps / voltage. It then ends up over volting a cap or a choke. sometimes you smell something burning. sometimes you just dont smell or see anything but will hear a pop. My advice; as I have seen in the comments below try moving some caps around / chokes to see if you may extract life out of it. then you'll know what to replace. I hope this helps. Cheers!
Hey Brian, it might seem odd but try to reflow the CPU socket with heat gun, you need flux put in the socket and heat resistant tape to isolate side components then apply the heat for about 2 minutes and let it cool down. I actually did that to one board (Asus Z97-AR) which had troubles initiating the cpu and it worked as a charm and it's now working in a rig perfectly fine. You won't loose anything giving it a shot (with care)
I luv the budget builds. Many tech tubers don't cover budget value DIY builds or making the best outta older generation tech to be eco-friendly about reduce e-waste. Just recently rebuilt a friend's old c2d e8400. Added 8GB ddr-1600 ram (2x4GB), added a Snowman 4 heatpipe tower cooler and a 430W thermaltake PSU. Using it for a spare PC to deal with data transfers for clients and a media PC. Running Linux 19.3 XFCE 64bit on it.
Just snagged my first deal for PC flipping. I’ve watched this channel since I was 15, at 22 gonna get that grind going! $500 for as is cyberpower pc 2060 super i7 9700f Z370 h ROG 2 x 8gb ddr4 3000 1tb hdd Nvme crucial 500gb ssd 850w thermaltake toughpower gf1 And rgb puke Having issues with the motherboard or i7, I’ll break even with the rest
CPUs pretty much never break, especially that new and when you can't OC them. Get a cheap H370 or something to test it. That's easily a sweet deal either way.
Brian, I believe the term PC component makers use is "Planned Obsolescence". It's a 9 year old board. If it kept working forever some would never upgrade.
I had an ROG ASUS motherboard years ago and a few times it just quit working for days , weeks or months and it would just come back to life. I tried everything you should do to troubleshoot it whenever it stopped working but nothing would bring it back to life except time. It would work for at least six to twelve months before just giving up every time.
Had 3 Intel boards in my household, from around 2010 (2 Gigabyte and one AsRock), which all failed one after another, around spring. Now, 10 years is a win in my book, but I definitely would not replace them with hardware around that age anymore. There may be some expiration clock ticking in there...
@@laharl2k sure there's stickers, but it's always a good idea to put disclaimers becuase some people would see him doing it and they might assume it's safe. Most people will use common sense or read the stickers, that's not who the disclaimer is for.
Probably needed to fix a bad capacitor on the board or a bad trace. Have to go full Louis Rossmann or Tronicfix to get things like this to work. Doing an Ultrasonic Cleaning won’t fix everything and is like just step 1 to try and revive the board. They probably both have a bad capacitor that fails after 5 years or so.
Bad DDR RAM is the biggest issue with the x79, especially the faster sort. It seems the board doesn't like fast ram with tight timings at all, try some slower ram in it.
I thought for sure the problem was gonna be from stacking all those computer parts inside a giant vibrator... waiting for components to get knocked off from stacking like capacitors or resistors etc
try flashing the bios, if it still don't work get a new bios chip edit - if someone bricked the 1st bios they prolly bricked the 2nd. also unless ur using a sandy i7/chip the version of the bios may not support the cpu. I have had to update x79 bios once or twice for sandy xeons but mostly ivy xeons.
no boot issues are generally BIOS related where it cannot initiate a boot procedure which looks like a bricked BIOS,happend to my ASUS P5KC where BIOS and POST screen were scrambled at first even though it booted normally than next day decided to die on me (luckily i found blank chips and reflashed with clamps to a latest one which is 1203)
I've been buying faulty motherboards from ebay and so far the main problems have been with the BIOS so ive been getting some practice at fixing this these 😃👍
If you can’t figure out the problem of the mobo, maybe give it to a specialist to have a look and try a repair. Shouldn’t be too expensive to repair, hopefully!
I see a number of these boards for sale, all saying the board is faulty. Apparently it is a over-temp chip which causes the issue. Not sure how true this is.
What are the reasons for the graphics card not accepting the definitions, and when using the definition, an error appears in the operating system and the device reboots?
The X79 Rampage just doesn't last for whatever reason. I ran across a dead X79 Rampage Formula a little while ago as well. Also the clips for memory slots are also not very durable, I got another X79 Rampage board that also got broken clips.
I understand your frustration...... that's why I don't buy PC's now that are faulty coz it just messes with your head..... taking on other peoples issues..... you should do a video just smashing up those boards to get your frustrations out..... like if you wont work for me then you ain't gonna ever work again ;)
the problems with those motherboards is a failed capacitor somewhere on the power rail. i have repaired a couple but when i do that i just swap all the capacitors on the motherboard and they always come out working as good as new
Question, there are no i3, nor i5's for x79, right? The lowest end CPU you can get is an i7 3820, which is a Sandy Bridge E 4c/8t at 3.6Ghz, which I actually have in my P9X79 mobo that's been running well for a long time now. What x79 CPU did that DOA PC come with, does it still work? I'm also still running a P5Q mobo with a core 2 quad Q9300, that you've had nightmares with mate!
I was in the middle of watching a TechYes video from couple years ago. So you know you gotta finish a TechYes vid in order to go to another TechYes vid. Thems a TechYes rule
Back in the day I had one of these boards, I had nothing but problems with it from day one, have always bought high end Asus motherboards, but this one kept crashing, in the end I sold it on and bought the premium model, had the tuf x79 too no issues. This one I'm guessing is a defective model. The way it crashed I suspect it was vrms they ran hooot when overclocking my 3930k I've still got the system on the Asus premium board 👍
Don't those boards require to have ram modules in both sides before it will fire up ? x79 board I had would not start with one side populated.....I might be grasping at straws.
7:02 -7:38 I'm still new to pcs but isn't there supposed to be a monitor cable hooked up to the gpu, or is it connected to the motherboard? I'm just not sure what I'm seeing here.
The GDP is quite a bad way to measure an economy because of a number shortcomings like how the money is divided, how much everything costs and other shortcomings. A more interesting way to measure an economy for the average citizen is to look at the price of something which exists in every economy and is sold a lot, like the Big Mac, and express how many of those you could buy every year with a modal salary.
Not too sure if it's only the rampage. I had an x79 extreme 6 from asrock. Strangely started having issues like you had with a 1650 0 and ECC ram. But I originally had the i7 think it was the 3930k so I put that back in with just non-ecc ram and it was fine. All the original parts worked fine in another mobo I had, a Dell prebuilt motherboard though that I borrowed them from originally when I put them back in... Wondering if it's just something weird with x79s
I can't get 2 mobos & 2 amd fx cpus to work. Both mobos giving ~1v vcore and spins fans, no matter combination (memory in different slots too) they are stuck at this god damn 1v with fans on. PCI post card just powers on, no codes at all. Did i got 2 mobos with bricked bios?
The same thing happened to me i had the best evga board for the first gen i7 and GG ended up doing what the guy did to you cause I didnt know if I could fix it and hoped someone else could get it going. Sold it for 80 usd in 2018
did you try switching display ports ? i know thats what helped with mine, after tearing it apart and stuff ... i felt silly lol somehow going from display port to hdmi got mine to work lol
oh no! someone unloaded their sheize on you. it's almost like you unload polished up sheize onto other people that ends up braking in the nearest future.
@@techyescity Im no expert in this area and it is rather difficult since the schematic of this board is not given publicly. However, from what I gathered from Northridgefix who specializes in board repair is that there are a number of things to check before calling it a "no fix". I would visually inspect the board for any obvious damaged components. If there are none, then I would set the multimeter to diode mode and start checking if any capacitor (electrolytic and SMT) or other component (like the VRMs or other IC chip) is shorted to ground. Another alternative is to use a thermal camera, or your hands, to see/feel if any spot of the board is getting hot as you turn it on, as that will lead you to the shorted component. It is a fairly time consuming process, but I guess its worth a quick check to see if you find anything. I hope for the best!
Have you tried to kontakt Asus about it? Just saying, sometimes the companys knows this and ”change” components even withouth warrenty or just to look good. (happend to me with steelseries)
This might be a stupid answer or question how ever you wanna take it lmao. This last clip you showed on the first half you never plugged in the graphics cable to the monitor lol and if you did then never mind.. Also did you try just skipping the integrated GPU or disabling it in the Bios all together? idk just spitballin but hope you can get it figured out!!

Tbh am not tired of seeing that active windows because with out it we wouldn't get these great sponsor spots
Not too sure if it's only the rampage. I had an x79 extreme 6 from asrock. Strangely started having issues like you had with a 1650 0 and ECC ram. But I originally had the i7 think it was the 3930k so I put that back in with just non-ecc ram and it was fine. All the original parts worked fine in another mobo I had, a Dell prebuilt motherboard though that I borrowed them from originally when I put them back in... Wondering if it's just something weird with x79s
I can't get 2 mobos & 2 amd fx cpus to work. Both mobos giving ~1v vcore and spins fans, no matter combination (memory in different slots too) they are stuck at this god damn 1v with fans on. PCI post card just powers on, no codes at all. Did i got 2 mobos with bricked bios?
Must be frustrating trying to polish turds all the time....
I need to get one of those ultrasonic cleaners for my vinyl records.
The same thing happened to me i had the best evga board for the first gen i7 and GG ended up doing what the guy did to you cause I didnt know if I could fix it and hoped someone else could get it going. Sold it for 80 usd in 2018
did you try switching display ports ? i know thats what helped with mine, after tearing it apart and stuff ... i felt silly lol somehow going from display port to hdmi got mine to work lol
have you tried to do a REFLOW of the CHIPSET??? try that it might work on 1 of the 2
Shouldn't you use distilled water in the sonic cleaner?
tried to remove the backplate if theres a short?
Whats the pc case that is shown in this video?
Ive had two asus ranger x79 boards just randomly die on me. So frustrsting as i did pretty much every thing to diagnose
how do you have the afterburner fps hud on cs go?
Nice Taichi Hoodie M8 :D
Thanks for showing the bad along with the good. Always great content.
oh no! someone unloaded their sheize on you. it's almost like you unload polished up sheize onto other people that ends up braking in the nearest future.
I'm actually running a gtx660 with that exact same model. guess this means i should clean it out a lil, even though I got it clean when bought
Put motherboard in oven before flux with tin layer all solder on the back and near integrated components legs
I didn't hear him say he checked for failed parts using a multimeter
Thinking the same here Byran never really do anything with multimeter for testing
That's too time consuming for him and also he already said many times he's not good with electronics.
Saying that he should try doing it sometimes
@@uvuvwevwevweossaswithglasses yeah as long as he's been "hustling" you'd think he'd learnt that by now...
Aussies like you and mighty car mods always have the best music. How do you find music like this 😭
Is it programmed obsolescence? A time bomb? Has anyone had a similar experience with that board?
If you have a multi meter you can try diagnosing the components on the motherboard!
Which are the main components to go through first?
@@techyescity Im no expert in this area and it is rather difficult since the schematic of this board is not given publicly. However, from what I gathered from Northridgefix who specializes in board repair is that there are a number of things to check before calling it a "no fix". I would visually inspect the board for any obvious damaged components. If there are none, then I would set the multimeter to diode mode and start checking if any capacitor (electrolytic and SMT) or other component (like the VRMs or other IC chip) is shorted to ground. Another alternative is to use a thermal camera, or your hands, to see/feel if any spot of the board is getting hot as you turn it on, as that will lead you to the shorted component. It is a fairly time consuming process, but I guess its worth a quick check to see if you find anything. I hope for the best!
Have you tried to kontakt Asus about it?
Just saying, sometimes the companys knows this and ”change” components even withouth warrenty or just to look good.
(happend to me with steelseries)
I wanted an MSI GTX 560 Twin Frozr II so bad back in the day.
Try to bake them a little bit?
Looking well Brian!
Got that Tech YES glow! 😎
Great content
Awesome channel too.
Thank you for everything! 👍
what about mounting pressure on the cpu?
I have a chinese X79 motherboard & sometimes I must wiggle the CPU cooler so all memory channels work. Same happened with LGA 1155 Optiplex boards.
What Thermaltake case is that?
Hey Brian... tried taking a heat gun to it?
Bad idea
This might be a stupid answer or question how ever you wanna take it lmao. This last clip you showed on the first half you never plugged in the graphics cable to the monitor lol and if you did then never mind.. Also did you try just skipping the integrated GPU or disabling it in the Bios all together? idk just spitballin but hope you can get it figured out!!
Could it be a capacitor problem might be akin to like the ps3 cap problem the newer caps should be good but Worth a look
A- how about the CPU, what kind was it?
B-why not to stick it into some X79 motherboard???
Loving this series Mr. Tech Yes City!
Have you ever tried sending those defective highend parts to an electronic repair shop? There are people who can repair them.
Giving it that tech yes lovin baby!
Including tech yes BJs 😜
Try a hotair soldering gun on the chipset, worked on quite a few of my boards!
Yeah but how long would last after that?! I would trash it, it's just not worth it.
Only a temporary fix to be honest
Is 140€ ok for a 5820k and x99 gaming 7?
Great deal
