- Reballing Sapphire Radeon HD 7870 XT With Homemade BGA Rework Station And Low Cost Equipment, the GPU shows red lines on the screen.
This video is showing you how to repair graphics cards AMD-ATI Radeon or Nvidia with BGA problem.
Why Reballing ? The graphics chip is soldered to the board with hundreds small solder balls (BGA) and one or more solder joints crack with time due to the thermal cycle which creates thermal stress (contraction and expansion en.wikipedia.o...) and the graphics card stops working, old thermal paste or paste with bad heat conductivity and clogged cooler increase the thermal stress, with this procedure we replace the solder balls and resolder the chip to the board and the graphics card works again.
I prefer reballing over reflow because reflow is not a long term solution and the black screen or artifacts will return again soon, reballing is more reliable and is the preferred GPU repair method.

*One Word, GENIUS.* I am a Tech enthusiast and my Sapphire 7870 XT is giving me no display and was searching around and i landed here.
If you know a solution to my problem, then do assist me too :D
Hello, probably BGA cracks, i think you need to do a reflow, watch this video ruclips.net/video/FU84qGSdE-s/видео.html
Excellent work! I really like how you do your tools, I'm also planning to build a machine for homemade rework, I hope to be able to do such professional work as is your case, congratulations!
You have tools but you have skills too :). Great work!
Thank you :)
thank you
Where did you get the heat stencil?
How do you know if the chip is aligned?
Good work sir
Que gran trabajo muy professional excelentes videos ! Saludos desde colombia
Thank you, hello Colombia greeting from Greece
what is the purpose of reballing?
Excellent video on this process!
so it mean any chips can repair just like new?
so the lines are because of a cracked solder joint? nothing to do with vram?
if you see the lines and artifacts during POST and PC can not load the drivers or even crashes then probably the issue is the GPU and not the VRAM
Grazie mille!!! thanks so much!! you can tell me where to buy stencil for gpu laptop and what type of paste flux is better for you. sorry for my english. thanks . Giuseppe.
Hi Giuseppe, to find the stencil that you need you must search the chip code on ebay and on the stencil you will find the solder ball size, i'm using warton metals future hf rework jelly for many years because it does a good job and leaves very little residue, amtech nc 559 is also good for reballing
thank so much, and nice to meet you, where do you live? you make this for work or for hobby ?
I live in Greece and i repair computers as a hobby but i also make some money from it :)
Hey Nik, may I use a tiny cut of this video and the reflow video as examples on a video I'm making?
Hello, yes you can use it.
Regards
@@NikTelio That's very kind, thank you.
Can you explain me why my GPU freeze randomly? Does this need to be reballed?
excuse me，which software is used to check if GPU or memory issue？for AMD card.

you are so good..
Great handmade work but question - isnt it cheaper buying another redeon ?
nice background music
at 6:45, are you applying solder or some of that low-temper solder removal stuff? Which tip (exact model) are you using and what's your soldering station? Finally can you do a video on motherboard LGA reball/replacement? Thanks!
i'm using leaded solder sn63pb37, for the soldering station and the tip watch this video ruclips.net/video/W5HECI1L3dg/видео.html , i would need a bigger rework station to repair big boards like pc motherboards
Is there a difference between leaded and unleaded solder for rework? Are there instructions with the T12 build kit from aliexpress/banggood?
leadfree solder replaced the old leaded solder not because it is better but because the lead is toxic. leaded solder has better mechanical properties and can tolerate thermal stress. one more difference is the melt temp, leaded solder sn63pb37 melt temp is 185°C , leadfree solder 220°C, and when using leaded solder the rework temp is lower and you don't stress the motherboard and other electronic components.
i bought my t12 controller on ebay and there was no instructions, i don't know about aliexpress/banggood
indication red and blue colour of the numerals-temperature,what colour what temperature shows? (top-bottom) on your DIY HomeMade BGA Rework Station.
the top temp gadget (red) shows the top heater temp and the other gadget (blue) shows the bottom hater temp
Nik Telio thank!
Hi Nik. How do you make the chip not present a bubble in the welding process? You put plate and chip in a greenhouse before? Hugs.
Hi, watch this video ruclips.net/video/qfuBX3RJbcc/видео.html
Nik Telio I watched it. Great. Thanks a lot.
Amazing work!
Thank you
I have a motherboard that needs processor socket replaced because some pins are broken. I do have a lga new socket. Can i purchase two small ceramic heating plates, one bottom one up and heat the chip while monitoring the temperature and try to remove the damaged socket? Which temperature will it move?
Hello, this would not be easy, you have to monitor the temp on bottom heater , the top heater and the board temp, the bottom heater needs to be a big heater (size and watts) because is the one that delivers the most heat, the top heater helps a little to rise the board temp to the solder melting point 220°C
and when you reach the liquid state...one wrong move and other components like small capacitors could fall of or move and the motherboard is useless :/
@@NikTelio too bad i removed the socket. I used a 100w ceramic heater in bottom. And used the hot air rework station to heat the socket and everything was fine until i removed the socket carelessly and all the resistors inside the socket went flying. I am going to resolder all the resistors and buy better ceramic heater for bottom and up. And buy a themorcouple. Do you think without heat controller and just with thermocouple i can grt the new bga sockst inplace?
wat if gpu no display but fan is spinning,thanks
i would do a reflow ruclips.net/video/FU84qGSdE-s/видео.html
Μπράβο φίλε, καταπληκτικός!!!!
Did you jerry-rig some laptop coolers to your CPU radiator? Why would you do that?
they are for cooling the northbridge and the VRM's
Poderia ensinar como é que faz essa máquina de reballing seria bastante interessante sendo que aqui no Brasil uma máquina profissional é muito cara
ele nao responde kk
search my channel and you will find a video about the bga rework station and in the description you will find a link with the materials and wiring diagram, to make a "how to" video i have to build a new rework station and film it from beginning to end
Muito Obrigado por responder compreendo perfeitamente
Mas gostei demais da sua estação show de bola muito criativa E aparentemente muito funcional
amazing work, ever think to try and replace the vram or see if it is upgradeable to a larger size by replacing all the chips with larger capacity ones?
Thank you. if the gpu and bios support larger capacity memory chips then it is possible to do this.
The lateral laptop fans are there to cooldown the board or the bottom heater?
Hi, the main purpose is to cool the board but at the same time they cool also the bottom heater
Thank you that's exactly what i wanted to know
I know you love to do reball and share the videos. But can you tell us how to to know if a gpu chip is dead or is the chip is OK ? How to test it ?
i also don't know if a chip is ok or dead, to inspect the BGA and chip and see if there are cracks you need a BGA scope and an Xray machine, very expensive tools, and none of us diy "technicians" have these tools, i do the reballing and say a few prayers and if it works i'm happy :) lol
Good video tho
Genius
can u show how to use profile for reballing ps3 RSX and CELLBE with your DIY BGA Rework,,,,tks
Hello, i have never reballed a ps3 :(
Doesnt stencil swell in middle why getting hot? Mine are swell so much
good quality stencils do not bend during the heating process
İ bought them from aliexpress, its no chance to understand how quality it is
@@RidvanKahveci on aliexpress and ebay most sellers sell cheap stuff, only a few of them have good quality items, have a look at this seller. www.ebay.com/usr/see-ic?_trksid=p2047675.l2559
Hi, great rework station and video! I was just wondering what you hooked up the bottom IR preheater to in order to power it?
Thank you. the bottom and the top heater are connected on 2 ssr (relays) and the power source is 220v, the pid controller controls the relays, this is the entire basic circuit, it is very simple
Thank you for the response! it would be ok to use something like a variac to control voltage of the 220v IR plate in the USA (110v) right?
Hi, i would use an electronic step up transformer 110 --> 220 volt 2000watt to power the rework station and a dimmer to control the bottom heater or a thermostat
Excellent, I'll do that then
son bolitas de estaño con plomo ?? es lo mismo decir las bolitas de 0.5 = 0.50 ?
yes the balls are with lead SN63PB37
and 0.5mm=0.50mm
oh yeah, what temperature do you use to remove the solder at 6:45?
i set the temp to 285°C
I wish i can do this .. good video
where do you get your stencils? i'm actually looking for a r9 280x/hd 7970 stencil too!
Hi, www.ebay.com/itm/Stencil-Template-HD7990-215-0821060-215-0821065-215-0821056-215-0821302/182841142885?hash=item2a922e6e65:g:xRcAAOSwh2RZ6W8l
reballing r9 280x ruclips.net/video/HoprTmwKfDk/видео.html
Nik Telio i didn't even thought about ebay....oh well, i'll try this and see if it'll work, Thank you so much!!!
:)
Epically impressive skills, would you be willing to try your expertise with a Peltier cooling Tec/Teg system. You know thermal differentials, perhaps you can make one work properly without condensation!
@189°C that's not an ordinary bought from the brick and mortar store grill! Or is it?
Wow @230°C damn impressive too hold that temperature steady.
Show. Fantastic. Very good.
Thank you
How would you go about changing a socket on a motherboard?
pc motherboards require a more powerful and bigger size bottom heater, i replaced one LGA 775 socket once but my station was reaching his limits
Do you mean bigger watt heater?
I gotta motherboard that needs replacement with minimal budget. Will a lower heater and one upper heater with themometer do the job? What watts do you recommend. And the resistors inside the socket. Will the tape protect them from popping up?
Very impressed...
how many chances of revive a HD7950 with just a heat gun?
Hello, you should try and reflow the gpu, if you are lucky it can work for many months, sometimes even years,
watch this video about reflow using a heatgun ruclips.net/video/FU84qGSdE-s/видео.html
Hello Nik :), ty really for ur all BGA reballing videos really inspired me. in 18:10 this tool i cant find one like it , can u share me link for it or where i can find it .my regards :)
Hello, this tool is custom made , i bought this pcb holder and modified it.
www.ebay.com/itm/PCB-Fixtures-Repairing-Circuit-Boards-Metal-Holder-for-iPhone-Samsung/401783706405?hash=item5d8c2cd325:g:cwkAAOSw7A9c~gN3
Great work!
Thanks
Hi Nik. How are you? And so much so that you don't put video. I hope everything is OK. Finally I managed to find a housing for the creation of the rework machine. Except that I haven't found that little circuit that manages the operation yet. I have all the rest. Do you know how to do it to get it for me? It would be very nice if I made a video of the assembly of the machine. But I know it's an absurd request. With all its connections.
how do you know its a reballing issue and not a bad chip? Love your vids, thank you!
without an Xray machine and a bga scope i can't know, i do the reballing and then i test the gpu, sometimes it doesn't work but i don;t mind :)
Thank you for the reply. Your quality and workmanship are excellent!
Thank you, you should have seen me when i was still learning reballing lol i did so many stupid things lol
hi , what is ipa liquid ? link plz ebay amazon
Hello, IPA means isopropyl alcohol - isopropanol , www.ebay.com/itm/500ml-IPA-Isopropyl-Alcohol-99-pure-FREE-UK-POSTAGE-ISOPROPANOL/271019176623?epid=1334319429&hash=item3f1a0072af%3Ag%3AT4oAAOSwBahVSyjX&_sacat=0&_nkw=ipa+isopropyl&_from=R40&rt=nc&_trksid=m570.l1313&LH_TitleDesc=0
Wow bro your owsim
congratulations
Now i havent seen the end of video (I will), just at this time i wanted to write: did you notice at 22:22 when you placed the GPU and moved the rail, bump i saw a solder ball jumped off and trilled off. !!!
Allright, i assume you saw that and replaced it. After see you remove stencil and paused. looks good. !! heh
you are the first one that noticed that :) i saw it and added the solder ball and at 22:45 you can see that the ball is there :)
Good job.
nik clean work thank you
:)
What Ipa referse to?
Hi, IPA means isopropyl alcohol i use 99.5%
Thanks)
Γεια σου Ελλάδα
Where should I go to learn the basics of this stuff this is really cool
hy Sn 63 / Pb 37 ball?
Hello, yes i'm using sn63pb37
thanks! nice work
Bro how to make it at home
Hello, at home you can try to reflow your graphics card, is the easiest way to repair it , watch this video ruclips.net/video/FU84qGSdE-s/видео.html
taking a gas mask when you reworking bga, afterall, health is important for doing everything.
:) thanks , i have room ventilation to extract the fumes
and I have try, if the solder ball smaller than 0.7, you dont have to clean with solder wire.
you just using solderimg iron drag lead solder all over.
Because some PCBA quality is bad, even gets enough temprature preheating, It still get pad broken
P. S.
others video on youtube
People just using their finger to wire flux without any glove let me feeling disgusted.
becaus we using our hand to do is not just about repair, we have to eating. cooking etc.
I likes your good video show.
fluxes contain chemicals and the skin absorbs them , i would not do this
yes when the soldering iron temp is to high, for example ~400°C then you burn the pcb and the pads brake,
tat is why i set my bga soldering iron at 285°C max 320°C
9:43 что за жидкость ?
IPA, Isopropyl alcohol, Isopropanol
@@NikTelio спасибо ! 👌
👍👍👍 !
Show
too much thermal paste, but the rest its ok
You've Burnt and dehydrated your solder, diy tools yeah right, fake video, from 20 yes ex.
I'm not a hater I just do not like deception!
