Man, I wish I lived near his shop. I would be so fearless with my electronics purchases knowing someone so reliable was close.
I mean dudes device was from Dubai lol I don’t think it matters where you live unless the shipping is stupidly high 😂.
@@Tagerrun problem with shipping is that in my area they would drag my box behind the car.

I have been building and repairing computers for more that 20 years but can`t do what you do, you make it look so easy, but I know it is not, I enjoy your video`s very much, thanks and I wish you well.

I love your enthusiasm when you fix something. Recently bought some items from you and I can't wait until you have the short circuit injector so I can purchase one from you. Keep up the great work.
Thanks for posting your videos. I can legitimately fix electronics after watching you and others on RUclips. Had a lot of previous knowledge, but your put me over the top on trouble shooting and soldering.
can you fix my gpu ? :d
Huge appreciation for your work and effort to make these videos. Thank you.

That and "If you are gonna do it, do it right."

I don't know why I celebrate with Alex every time he finds the issue as if I was involved lol.
Same reason I do probably - he looks so happy and proud when he's fixed the device or debugged a difficult problem.
Every gamer who has had their cards busted knows the pain.. all of us celebrate life when a card is brought back to life 👍👍
@@CheekyBuns cringe
First time watching your videos. You're my new hero. I love seeing people work who know what they're doing.
За овакви ситни работи, навистина треба човек да има силни и јаки нерви 🙂 Браво мајсторе 👍
You should make a t-shirt with the logo and text "The short is gone!" :)
Yes I agree
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
You guys need to hire more GPU repair guys, we're dying out here!
Great job and impressive repair skills, from a 20yrs experienced electronic designer let me say that you can call yourself an electronic engineer more than most of my collegues.
just imagine how many of these would be wasted if people didn't have to pay through the nose for these cards?
You'e really helped me get my "mind right" regarding repairs. In the past I always fixated on the LSI chips. Millions and millions transistors and other internal elements. In a very basic way of thinking it seemed that if you had a group of millions of failure points or a hand full of discrete components, which one has a higher chance of failure. Of course that's not the case. The LSI chips are amazingly resilient and that a "hand full of discrete components" are usually where the smoking (pun not intended) is. Of course when a BIG BOY fails.. clearly it's additional cost and problems than a single FET, CAP, DIODE or... yada yada yads. Much appreciated. Live long, de-solderer and prosper. Cheers.
Hey man, just discovered your channel but just wanted to say thank you for talking out the entire problem and process.
Bummer you couldn't fix it in this video. Your technical abilities are awesome. I can't wait for the follow-up.
Waiting for part 2, your are doing a great job
This is first time I have seen your channel and so glad I came across it. This is awesome what you do!!!!
Honestly pretty impressed. Nice work!
It is not just what you do but how you do it, great hosting and top skills with a lot of exp gained over the years, thank you for sharing your knowledge and keep posting Videos.
Cheers
Love that power injecting tool. makes this work so much easier and time saver.
Awesome as usual. Thank you from Portugal.
Your teaching and sharing is a good thing. Thank you!
If the warrant devices is treated like from NorthridgeFix work the world work well...
I love your reaction when you remove a short!
You still was able to fix that graphics card. A potential fix is better than a no fix. Keep up the great work.
Hi Alex, Came across your channel a couple of weeks ago, needless to say sir you are a master of your craft. Enjoy your videos immensely. Being in the same trade for 20 plus years I truly have learned a lot from yourself. Keep it up ;-)
انا ماعرف شنو قاعد تسوي لكن جدا استمتع في اتقانك للعمل قال رسول الله :(ان الله تعالى يحب اذا عمل احدكم عملا ان يتقنه )
These 3000 series cards are practically brand new. Why aren't people returing those cards for under warranty replacement / repair.
Because here, better than factory
exactly, agree. never buy expensive card without warranty, never.
Bought it 2nd hand, Gigabyte refused to RMA.
Becuz they broke the warranty, by overclocking etc.
Or a benchtest that blow up the card.. It happens
Cos even if RMA it'll take forever to get it back.
I got so into this video. When it went to the ads as Alex is waiting for the card to cool, I waited patiently 😆. As always great job.
Love your facial expression on the caps not blowing, blessed brother.
i love how the proper procedure for finding a short is just shoving power at it and seeing what gets hot
Solid hard core hands ! You are an asset to mankind !
congratulations alex, keep up your excellent work, greetings from Brazil
Thanks for sharing your skill & knowledge Alex !
time to go pick up those discarded cards i once had the same issues with always informative when watching keep it up it is appreciated
Love your work brother. Love it all
I'm from Germany and I like electronic , you do a great job .thank you for the video's
A rare event indeed when Alex doesn't have a replacement component available. Very skillful use of hot air, only experience and a steady hand can do.
Nice Video. With the right equipment and most important thing are KNOWLEDGE and EXPERIENCE make you know what to check and identify the problem. You have my like, subscribe and respect man. Keep it up.
Alex u re the best bro . Trust me . I enjoy ur videos to the max
"My Master"!!!! Many Greetings from indonesia ... cheerrss
Always the best. Great Video
A graphics card from Dubai... awesome. Look how far your channel goes 👍. Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪
Your Explaining most clear god bless thank you Master.
Very nice and helpfull video. Hope you can do a second part of it. Damn, you have so many videocards to repair…thats really a lot of work.
Thanks for this video, i‘m looking forward to the next videos
I have to come back and check 3 times for the heat spot when you inject power. You're experience is amazing!
I honestly still dont see it. I would just inject more Amps.
I know this channel will grow rapidly.
Good luck Man.
@NorthridgeFix That mosfet is currently not possible to buy, because Gigabyte ask manufacturers to not sell them. Gigabyte is taking all produced parts for themselfs. That mosfet is available only in broken GIGABYTE 30XX series cards ONLY!
How nice of them. Refuse RMA and then prevent 3rd parties from repairing the card by ensuring parts are not available.
And this is why "Right to Repair" exists
Love your videos there awesome. You have helped me loads over the years Thanks Jon
Great video. Thanks for the helpful information.
Love and respect from LIBYA 😘😘😍😍😍😍
I was never great working on smd but I really enjoy watching you videos. I have to explain to my lady why I'm laughing sometimes.
For those who asks about why not to use warranty and RMA, I've bought 2 Aorus Extreme 3080, one for me and one for my friend for new builds, I've build the PC's and what I see - total overheating in any application, even in some games. Why that - because absolutely every new card from gigabyte out with garbage thermal pads, which can't handle high temperatures. So I decided to change thermal pads to Thermal Grizzly Minus Pad - gigabyte refused to change it for me officially, so I opened the cards and changed thermal pads, stock pads were already dead, absolutely new sealed videocards on second day after purchase have dead pads after gaming, imagine this garbage pads. So after opening cards I'm void the warranty and my temperatures become normal, especially abnormal memory chips temperature what was around 100°C and even higher, it's 70 degree now in any heavy load
I used the Gelid extreme in my 3090 dropped from 105°C to 65-70°C
It is so rare to see a blown fuse. More often other elements that are not supposed to blow get shorted or blow😁 thanks as always!
LOGIC!
@@Snecho lol yeah, a fuse, not supposed to ever be a FUSE!
We are all waiting for this moment hhhhhh the short is gone nice work again your follower from morroco 🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦♥️🇲🇦❤️❤️❤️
I used foil or kapton tape to covers caps to avoid any excessive heat. Also use fuse wire for jumper on fuse. 👍
I wish this guy was near me . I could really use your expertise.
Man I love these videos great work 👌👌👌
Man, NorthridgeFix is on top of this.
Wow! Great show!
Honestly what do people do to video cards. So many are broken. Good job 👏. Can't wait for part 2. Better than factory 💪.
Nothing. Besides gaming and streaming, nothing ^.^
But in this case, it's just poor card design. So many people with the same model are having the same issue.
idk how you dont get those other lil mlc an things loose when removing them hehe, love it man working on getting my skill there
most important thing, must have the right tools for the job, and then the skill to use those tools, you have both, it looks like you enjoy what you do for a living and that is also important, i hope they do pay you what you are worth, cause you are worth your weight in gold, keep up the good work
It seems the manufacturer of graphics card did not honour the warranty of the card. But awesome job. You are saviour of such gamers
I got my cards and miners at IMINERS,CO and they are great group of people. Cards and miners are awesome, support is insane, shipping is fast and they provide wholesale discount. My recommendation for them.
great miners out there. I owm them to and they are insane.
Please leave some GPU's left for us gamers as theyre all out of stock
You should use Kapton tape to heat shield surrounding components when applying hot air.
"(injecting voltage) right here...did you see it?" NO! :)) This is called "experience". Great job man!
alex has the experience that takes years of hard work.Thats tough stuff!
Your videos are addicting!
Definitely going to send in my old hardware to see if they can be repaired.
That being said, I'll be waiting until I see less inventory in your shop, because it seems that your queue has grown with your popularity lolol
Edit: Also, you should likely buy a lot of components that this video card has, especially those related/sensitive to power. I don't know if you know, but the memory chips on the 3080/3090 (GDDR6X) can heat up to 110C , though miners / gamers are not supposed to push the card that far, I could see a lot of these chips failing due to factory crappy thermal pads not cooling the chip well. Most users don't want to replace the thermal pads, so temperatures suffer. Thus, I believe the memory chips will eventually need lots of replacements. Hopefully you can get your hand on those, though it may be difficult!
love it, thanks
you really do love your job
wicked problem solving keep it up. You need to get on those video cards customers need they games man :)
I subscribed you as my future insurance policy, if need be.
Also I’ll try to donate chips (with lesser air in packages 😉) if and when able. Will refer you to others if ever I come across anybody.
All the best. God bless you.
Nice repair man❣
Amazing my brother
great videos ! thanks
Nice job and video like always
by taking photos of graphics cards in 8k you help other services, knowing what parts are falling and see where on the pcb what has burned, the service will order parts faster and repair the graphics card faster
@selorius
Then they would be guessing not repairing.
Unless they are testing, it is just a shot in the dark
Love from BANGLADESH 🇧🇩
I have a card which produces no video signal, but I was able to get it appearing and reporting as an Nvidia device in lspci inside linux. I think this means that it does not have a short, but I think I should still hunt for shorts, since you made it look so easy!
Gigabyte been using those AL000U1N's for ages. Had one in my GTX 1080 Ti Waterforce blow up. Fixed the card by removing it.
Tip : Covering the aluminum caps with teflon tape will prevent it from blowing out.
Breaks my heart to witness all those sick vg cards laying around
My friend Northbridge here can do this on carpet and on water and still complete the job without worriying about ESD and any type of interferences. Hes one of the only real true onsite hardware technician master who doesnt NEED a Gamers Nexus mat unlike 90% of these other so called tech youtubers who Does have the GN mat but dont really present any uses nor any real Tech fixes. Northbridge fix, He presents Real live onsite fixes here NOT for views But for the PEOPLE. It doesnt matter what it is , on this channel he dont got time to be trying to make the studio look pretty in exchange for clout and views nor is he trying to sell you a gimmick, but Here hes trying to help fix the existing hardware problems for THE PEOPLE and teach.
The first revision of the Gigabyte 3080s & 3090s (that are based on the reference design with the small extra cable to the pci charging socket, ergo VISION, EAGLE, GAMING) have been known to have problems with a loose contact between motherboard and the pci socket. Best always check that first, might save some trouble. My card had the same problem and got quickly repaired by Gigabyte.
There are some lists online to check if your serial number is affected (old batch), but that is bogus. Officially my card (according to the SN) should have been part of the fixed version, but had to be repaired nonetheless.
Nice work bro! :=)
Alpha & Omega Semiconductor: First line = Part Number Code. First two symbols on second line are Year Code & Week Code respectively, the next two symbols on the second line are the Assembly Lot Code. Like the other guy said this appears to be similar to AOZ5332QI (Alpha & Omega Semiconductor).
Very impressive. Do you remember the resistance values for all the boards or do you keep a record of them to refer to?
Those flir cameras are expensive but they pay off for themselves so quickly!
When you have Alex's work volume it is always a good idea to invest in tools which shorten your work time, even if they are expensive. As the saying goes "Time is money".
Which model thermal cam is that?

Fixed an RX 580 that had a bad voltage regulator and a GTX 980 with a bad 10A fuse but barely see them come in until recently with the video card shortage. You certainly see way more cards though.
Keep the good work

Thank you for sharing this Informationen with us. But from where did you find this modellnommber? I mean the modell on the chip is different
@@omaribrahim2736 google search with bits of the printed model number, like "AL00 Mosfet" only. See what gets shown. In this case it showed me a chip on aliexpress. Once you see a component showing up, but other model number, look for data sheet of the new model, if that is what you are looking for you have hit the bullseye ;)

Great video . Very intressting .
I got the feeling when see all GFX cards that are not old on the shelfs there is no qulity builds . some years ago never heard about GFX cards failing . And this 3090 etc are damn expensive so the buildquality & componentsquality shuld be way better so they last atleast a decade or more .
Do you think so much demand pushed companies to cheapen their components?
Every time I see Alpha & Omega MOSFETs, my spidey sense starts tingling. 🤦♂️

This is why we need Right To Repair to pass already. We can't purchase replacement parts and chips unless we purchase it from shady vendors in China.
