      @@TechSource I would think that there are people out there watching a respectable and big channel like yours, seeing you opening it up and so on, makes them think it's essentially safe etc. Hence not knowing the potential dangers of doing so... Should never assume anything when it comes to people, especially when it literally involves potential injuries or even death.

      @TheGameBench 2 месяца назад +2

      @@chirayu781 Sure. I suggest using the spread method to ensure that you have even coverage on the GPU die. When you're securing the heatsink back down, just be sure to do a couple of turns on each screw, one by one, until you secure it down. This makes sure that the cooler seats on the die at an even level. If you just screw down one screw all the way and move on to the next, you can pump the thermal paste to one side creating a hot spot.

    Look at the little PCIe holding thingy. A ton of 40 series cards broke on this thing because they are to heavy. At 27:20 it looks like a little crack. That crack could be the issue because on this card you have multiple layers and even in this spot are traces.

    Hey ED I think its very smart you are bringing your truck to test the components, I know some are easier than others to test, but better safe than sorry. Also always meet at a public place (which it seems your doing) and I advise against meeting at night. Also a tip I learned while flipping this is to lowball a person, and if they reject, then likely the part works and you may not even need to test it (of course still test to be 100% sure). I also ask them before purchasing if its okay to test and if they say yes then thats another green flag they are not scammers.

    With the 4070 ti super, mine was doing the same thing until I installed drivers for it, I don't know why but the system couldn't recognize the card before. I installed the drivers, removing the card and plugging into the integrated graphics and it recognized the card when I reinserted it. May have been a fluke but I had previously tried reseating the card to no avail.

    Love this series!!! Thinking about flipping/building PC's to sell around my area as there aren't many places that do that kind of thing around here. Getting a lot of great advice and ideas from your videos and I appreciate it!!! I have one question, what site to you use to get you suggested retail price in your videos? Keep up the good work!!!

    Here in New Zealand used RTX 3070's start at $550NZD or about $332.88USD so similar used values when currency converted. Thats for cards that have been mined for a short term. Genuine cards from gaming rigs cost $100+ extra from private sellers.

    Did you try the bios switch for the 4070?
