MUST HAVE PC REPAIR TOOLS
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 14 июл 2024
- After working in computer repair for almost 10 Years, I have bought and tested a ton of tools over the years, and although there are tons of great options out here I compiled a set of my absolute favorites and most used tools that allow me to run my business as effectively as possible. This is by no means a complete list of everything, but it is a great start for anyone looking to start a pc repair business.

Tweezers. I knew I was missing something. Also you forgot one of the most useful tools - a soldering iron
I guess we did both forget something. The funny thing is I could see my hot air station across the room while I was recording this. I can’t believe I forgot that.
Ventoy flash drive,full of OS iso and bootable repair tools. USB wireless dongle, ethernet cables, flashlight, magnifying glass, double sided tape in case the ones in laptop bezel are useless,rulers, caliper, thermal pads, empty mechanical pencil to use restore bent pins, gloves and masks (given the state of some machines techs deal with) , cameras and finally command prompt or powershell cheat sheets
Couple of additions, A 5mm nutdriver, very useful installing motherboard standoffs. Soldering iron and soldering sucker, if your soldering iron can convert to a heat pen to use on heatshrink tubing thats super helpful. I like to use GD900 thermal paste, its inexpensive and just as good as many of the boutique brands. a USB power tester is very handy to verify voltage and current on laptops, tablets and gaming handsets. A flashlight and magnifier are also very handy, things are getting smaller and smaller all the time. Don't go cheap on screwdrivers, its not worth it. I have a long 9" blade P2 very useful, the thin blade allows you to get into places where the mag bit screw drivers cannot go. Also have a 9: blade Torx T15. A couple of pairs of nitrile gloves. If you work in datacenters a lot hearing protection cannot be over stressed. Lastly a good laptop. Enought said.
On that Datavac, I've actually had a very basic one for about 8-9 years and it's been invaluable. I mostly got it because I had an initial hesitancy to canned air. That hasn't gone away, I dont trust them, I dont like them.
It still works wonderfully, but I decided that I can use that for my power tools, woodworking and general shop/garage stuff, and wanted to get a more dedicated computer cleaner once I start delving into electronic repair stuff. Tuns out Metrovac, the people who made the Datavac, make not only ESD-proof blowers, but also specialty ESD-proof vacuum systems for computers and other delicate electronics that can be used for both vacuuming and blowing like a regular blower, and I am really digging the idea of that.
They're expensive, but if my experience is any indication they are very well built and last a long time even with quite a bit of abuse. They're also Made In America and thats never a bad thing.
Just to mention in order to properly test power supplies you need a load or even better a load tester because it can work on idle and have correct voltages but when you throw some load on it,it can fail
Great comprehensive video. The only items I'd add are heat shrink tubing, heat gun and flux. Somebody already mentioned a soldering iron. Maybe another addition might be the small battery powered precision screwdriver from iFixit. Thanks for the great video.
Love you dawg, great video
Glad you enjoyed!
The vampliers are a rebrand of the brand "Engineer", both from Japan. In case you like to look into those tools Engineer offers a bigger palette avalaible
Hello Matt this is very helpful for new builders like me doing a great job man appreciate it and thank you for such informative videos ❤❤
and
!!! Also I need some help I am currently using an Antec NX 200 case with 3 argb 120 mm fans 1 back and 2 up and I am currently taking fresh air from back and blowing out on top of case while this cabinet supports 120mm 5 fans but unfortunately there is no intake from front is this configuration good or should I change it
I’m so glad you enjoyed the video!
Well when it comes to the configuration I probably would say it depends on how your cpu cooler is setup and what style cpu cooler do you have?
@@mattscomputerservices I am using i7-3770 and it's stock cooler 2 days ago I performed a stress test and temperature goes to 105°C
Replace your LTT tools with another brand, preferably one who hasn't up employee abuse.
