It's kinda impossible for someone without a good electronic background to do this. I can build and troubleshoot PC's with ease, can do electrical works and circuits but never can I do anything like this (without studying it from somewhere). Electronics is something that's really hard to be self taught and the max I can do is continuity check. This guy is an expert pro max ultra
thats how i started too. learned how to rebuild diesel engines when my truck broke. learned how to repair amplifiers when i wanted a big stereo but didnt have a lot of money. learned how to lots of things because it was needed.
@@wokeydokey6885 The first time I reballed and replaced any CPUs was just a passion project, no real background. All you got to do is want to and then buy the parts and equipment
@@wokeydokey6885the first time i did soldering is only because i dont have money to take my stuff to a repair shop and usually most of them refuse to fix that are actually very simple to work on or just lazy af (which is mostly the case in my area). I started repairing stuff with my dad's soldering iron, took me years to learn how to properly solder with the right amount of tin/lead and flux and a perfect dome point. Now im learning how to microsolder after i got a better but still cheap adjustable iron. Soon i will be trying to do hot air soldering once i have the money to buy a hot air station and maybe a better iron to go with as well. Im doing all of this as a passion project and its really fun to do. You just have to be willing to do it and with good materials and equipment youre good to go. Educational background DO help but in some cases, its not that necessary in my opinion.
I'm a medical doctor. The way you explain your thinking and approach diagnostics is not unlike what we are taught to do when diagnosing people. You're totally right - there's a meaningful difference between being 99% sure, 100% certain, and a 1000% right about complicated stuff. When lay people go to a doctor, they don't know what is wrong with them and trust the MD (and their reputation) to be dead certain about any conclusions they reach. The same applies to you - GPU microelectronics are complicated, and the majority of people will be lay people in this field. And therefore they trust you to be dead right on your conclusions. And you, Sir, do certainly deliver! Keep up the good work! Success lies ahead in your path!
Loving the content . keep up the great work and im so glad your subs have grown so quick you deserve it!!!! Also after watching this vid I thought your job entailed fixing GPUs motherboards etc but if you learned this on your own time then wow im blown away!!
The fact that you do not give up and (as you mentioned) you ensure that everything is checked out is something not a lot of people consider doing. Keep up the awesome work, since, as I mentioned, your subscibers are increasing quite a bit! And I am pretty sure that not only for me, but for others also, the time you release a new video, it is a good time. The fact that you can understand anything like that is literally beyond me, how did you learn everything, did you go to a school or just messing around in forums?
Dude, he literally explained that in the video. So obviously you didn't watch all of it. Or even half of it. He is self taught. He bought a bunch of GPUs and just started hammering away at em. He killed a few, he repaired a few.
This is like watching Louis Rossmann doing repairs on macs… Enjoyable to the max! I see this channel growing strong in the future. All the best from Serbia
Just recently started watching you, I thought you had at least 10+ years of experience. Only a few years you have been at this? You are extremely talented!
Thank you for ur hard work although I have no idea about how ur fixing these video cards. But the fact that u explain everything about how the card is good at what and what design has problems about the heating really helps a lot! Please keep it up thank you! With out EVGA it's really hard to say what card to buy now everyone that u take apart seems to have flaws with their cooling.
I just realized how much information you provide to everyone to get into this. You are a genuinely awesome individual and I love watching your content. Thank you!!!
i love that u go for 100 % to the best of you capability's, keep looking and maybe finding something is how you learn. I scrapped stuff that i later found the solution to and it does feel bad knowing that u could have fixed the other stuff :D
Even if today's repair was unsuccessful, I am glad the current GPU price environment means good guys like you can earn a bit of money repairing damaged GPUs. Then the fact GPU manufacturers are robbing us blind at least has one positive side-effect.
@@mtpstv94 Depend onthe country. Here for example This woudl be overtaxed and transport etc and would cost 4 times than in USA, while the repair would be cheaper (since labor is chaper here)
Great work. I started making decoders then working on amps with 3KV and 1amp. Schematics and boards are laborish at times having to flip from side to side. Sound cards for below the noise floor signals are pretty easy these days since you can buy the kits online.

Great video, I found your channel through yt feed. I really like it. Didn't know these kind of repair can be done. I thought the company would load it into their machine to do all the test
I'm glad to see someone as dedicated as you doing real diagnostics and repairs, it warms my old heart. Sure, this one had a dead core but I've seen you do some remarkable repairs in other videos.
amazing skills, you make it look so easy i hate ball grid array so much ive never even tried, you inspire me to have a go ill start with qfn though! took me ages just to be able to swap 0.5mm pin pitch quad flat pack chips as its so hard not to get shorts between the back of the legs where solder wick cant get to it but then i never learned to use extra flux till youtube (self taught tv, video, audio repair in the 90,s)
Man love your videos, I watch them everyday for relaxation :D I would like to see in your channel tier lists. By generation, by manufacturer, by model all ways of tier lists would go (I think that may be a good clickbait as well hehe :). As you are ze best GPU repair specialist your opinion of tiering cards according to part analysis, build quality, failure rate from experience, etc, would be outstanding.
Bro you are inspirational! I d love to do the same, learn everything but i'm a student and sadly, no time to do that ! Keep the hard work the channel is blowing 👍
Brings back good memories fixing cards multiple times when our overclocking sessions go sideways :-). It's useful to take a good look with microscope on the GPU die, since shorted chip often would have visual discoloration or cracks on a surface. You see cracks or bubbles coming from the edge - no need to troubleshoot the PCB (unless you need a donor for another GPU).
I really appreciate your thoroughness. I'm a retired auto mechanic. I use to see techs write down that they had done a bevy of tests that led to a conclusion when they actually had not. As an example. An engine that is overheating. If it's a common occurrence on a certain engine to blow a head gasket, then that's what their diagnosis would be. Even if it was just a faulty thermostat, the thermostat will get changed when replacing the head gasket, or replacing the engine. So whatever the problem really was, was never actually diagnosed. I always did the full set of tests, no matter how sure I was of where the results would lead me. One time I asked a particularly crooked tech how he could live with himself. He said, "safe and sound knowing my kids and I have full belly's and a roof over our head". The service writers were happy to sell all the high ticket jobs he wrote up too, as their pay was based on the total amount of money they could sell each month. I simply cannot operate that way. I ended up leaving the dealerships and working for small independent shops where reputation was everything. That's how I was able to sleep at night.
I think for me the real magic is the microsoldering! I'm a hardware guy and can follow his diagnostics, but I struggle at times with through hole components, I genuinely cannot believe this guy's skills in soldering! Also, the way he casually reballs cores... my god, it's incredible!
@CompHwTipsAndTutorials so so true. I've always sucked at soldering. I recently tried to replace the joystick in a VR controller and realized my hands and eyes just couldn't do it and I've given up for good. This guy is unreal
My 1st gpu repair was on a GTX 745. replaced the fan and repasted the chip. Minor compared to grinding down the board and soldering micro circuitry into place. I come for the knowledge and hope it may help in the future
hey my current nitro r9 390 stopped working, not sure what it is, when i power on pc the light on graphics card is on (it gets power" but no fan spin (ik they may not spin if idle) and no display, been searching for a minute now, any ideas???
great origin story, one of these days ill have to look into what memory tests are, how many different ones there are and where to find them as an intro to learning more
Well wow, props to you. I wonder if you already had previous experience or knowledge in electronics, I’m pretty bad when it comes to volts, ohm, resistances, capacitors and everything about circuits. Anyway thanks for this video and keep it up 💪🏻
Very interesting to hear your story and yes, I did learn something definitely. Although I have almost no clue what you're doing when measuring resistances and stuff even despite the fact I study CS in Poland (where it's like 50/50 CS/Electronics), maybe because I always found it unbelievably boring and useless so it was a study -> pass -> forget process for me, I find it very interesting to watch you use this knowledge on something I'm interested in which is GPU diagnosis & repairs. Though I would lie if I said our knowledge is on the same level. With how complicated it was for me to comprehend the very basics of electronics when having 0 experience with it, I have a hard time wrapping my head around how you can self teach that stuff. Hats off to you and you people in the comments who shared some of their stories on how you self taught something yourselves - yall motivate me to put my hands on my car and learn and sort it out on my own.
I already did that, with my car. All the mechanics said no to me wanting to replace the heater core inside my car(Freelander 1 Td4, 2003). After so many rejections, I was like "you know what, screw the mechanics, I am fixing this myself". I took it upon myself and in one day, I finally did it.
You are the best man!! If only i'd knew you exist few years ago, when my GPU died, you are a life saver. I had to trash it because no one was able to identify problem. Keep rocking man!!😎
Amazing work, very entertaining your the best. I have a bad Nvidia 3060 that works sometimes, but not with a load, I might be sending it to you to look at.
Hey man been enjoying the videos. I was wondering(if you have not already, I didn't see any) would you be willing to do a video on your workstation and all the common and not so common tools that you use. Just a run down (quick or I'm sure most of use would love In depth) of tool/materials you use, prefer, tips and try to avoid. Maybe even links for some of the things you highly recommend having on hand for those just working on their own cards/learning and even for those already ahead of the curve. Im sure a lot of us already know the basics but still love to hear it from someone like yourself
I really like your videos! Insane, what you can do and how deep your understanding of these kind of repairs are. Just out of curiosity, I have seen someone who swapped vram on a 3070 and upgraded it from 8gb to 16gb, do you mind to do a similar video? I think the making of and testing it in some games might be interesting!
ah man, i have nothing but component repairs on my mind right now, i want to be able to repair and not just replace. but you make it look a peice of cake haha. i build and repair PC's and its therapy for me now days, the last 18 months or so due so many things gone/going wrong and bad mental health. so to be able to just keep going and learn something extra is what im "trying" to do. gone as far as buying tips for the dremel gas solder i got given and buying a new multimeter so far haha. watched and watching a few of your vids now thankyou. oh i have 2 classic gaming boards with cpu sockets needing replacements if you wanted ;)
Please make a detailed video about where and why you probe on different points on the pcb. Also its hard to understand where exactly you are probing so a little magnifying those areas would really be great. Keep the great work :)
If it is a waste of time - it still isnt imo! I get alot out of your content (my fav of the electronics repair channels) and its nice to see things done in real time sometimes even though your segments that you speed up are done well! Im lost in alot of the intricate stuff you deal with, but Im slowly working to one day not be as lost. Im not trying to reach your level or anything, but I imagine you werent either early on in your journey? If you have any recommendations on where/how to learn more, informally, then Id appreciate that as well. If you dont mind, Id like to know which microscope your running, it does very well and you must have it mounted very well! I need to work on the education side before worrying too much about removing any cores ehh? Anyway, I know your a busy guy, so if you dont get a chance to respond here, its a-ok. Ill be watching for your next video!
You make your videos such a pleasure to watch. Some other repair youtubers are so arogant like that Northridge guy. Hes good but hard to listen to. Keep up the great work!
Thanks for all the great content. and enjoy watching your repairs. I do have a question, have you ever done a video on the equipment that you use, the type of Flux, Solder, and cleaners that you use. Thanks
Very nice vid! I’d love to be advanced as you tbh. I wish I could have the ability as you to buy a messed up or un responsive 4090 or 3090 and fix it and use it for myself instead of buying 2000 bucks for a new gpu. Your skills is impeccable!
My GPU isn't too high end ,It's a radeon HD6570 but that's all I can have with my budget ,It stopped working and I thought I should try to fix it myself ,I bought some tools like a Solder Iron ,Multimeter etc and ofcourse I didn't managed to fix it but this made me start loving hardwares and electrical engineering and now I am trying to learn this online and maybe Ill be able to fix it and maybe start my business as well ,and your video is making me more motivated and passionate about this
Hey, new sub here. Loving the gpu repair vids, it really is interesting and you being self taught is amazing as well. Just wanted to ask if you repaired any colorful brand gpus, i recently got one and i'm verry happy with it. I wonder how it compares to other brands in terms of build quality and board design.
I had a single slot Galax Katana GTX 1070 for many years, now it’s been running for a few more years in my partner’s PC. Great little card. Damn thing won’t die.
hello im a new subscriber and that was amazing i hope you can show us the temperature of hot air when removing components and the amps when you inject some voltage in 1volt etc. by the way thank you so much that was great
I just started out fixing some gpus as a hobby with different tools/soldeirng equiptment for smd repair and i am glad to hear that destroying a 1060 or similar isnt just my mistake...
This is insane, I was certain you had a background in electronic engineering or computer engeneering, but you are self-taught! genius

I'm so glad to see more people post their repair jobs, that's all I want to see on RUclips
This is one of the best how to channel on ne web !
Thank you kindly.
Cheers m8.
This is the first video i need to watch :)
Great video thanks 🎉
Please make a detailed video about where and why you probe on different points on the pcb. Also its hard to understand where exactly you are probing so a little magnifying those areas would really be great. Keep the great work :)
I second this, I have no idea why he choses specific points to measure for each diagnosis and I would love to understand that.
He didn't explain anything
I LOVE UR VIDEOS BRO.
we've been blessed by daily uploads
If it is a waste of time - it still isnt imo!
I get alot out of your content (my fav of the electronics repair channels) and its nice to see things done in real time sometimes even though your segments that you speed up are done well! Im lost in alot of the intricate stuff you deal with, but Im slowly working to one day not be as lost. Im not trying to reach your level or anything, but I imagine you werent either early on in your journey?
If you have any recommendations on where/how to learn more, informally, then Id appreciate that as well.
If you dont mind, Id like to know which microscope your running, it does very well and you must have it mounted very well! I need to work on the education side before worrying too much about removing any cores ehh?
Anyway, I know your a busy guy, so if you dont get a chance to respond here, its a-ok. Ill be watching for your next video!
You make your videos such a pleasure to watch. Some other repair youtubers are so arogant like that Northridge guy. Hes good but hard to listen to. Keep up the great work!
New Sub, love your channel.
I was asking myself this same question today!!! Insane!
This man is a legend!
Thanks for all the great content. and enjoy watching your repairs. I do have a question, have you ever done a video on the equipment that you use, the type of Flux, Solder, and cleaners that you use. Thanks
No
keep in yhis way tnx we learning from you
Another great vid
Thanks for the mini class. :)
You deserve more. Respect.
Nice video sir one thump from my side.
Thanks 👍
A true artisan. Not really doing it for the money, more for personal growth/satisfaction. Respect. 👍
Very nice vid! I’d love to be advanced as you tbh. I wish I could have the ability as you to buy a messed up or un responsive 4090 or 3090 and fix it and use it for myself instead of buying 2000 bucks for a new gpu. Your skills is impeccable!
I'm just happy to see someone around computers who is smart enough to use a hand driven simple screwdriver.
your very good at troubleshooting the hard way.
You are genius!
I have little to no idea what is going on, but your videos are addictive viewing! Binging my way through your old hits, keep up the good work
same here, where am i?
My GPU isn't too high end ,It's a radeon HD6570 but that's all I can have with my budget ,It stopped working and I thought I should try to fix it myself ,I bought some tools like a Solder Iron ,Multimeter etc and ofcourse I didn't managed to fix it but this made me start loving hardwares and electrical engineering and now I am trying to learn this online and maybe Ill be able to fix it and maybe start my business as well ,and your video is making me more motivated and passionate about this
I've got an old 1080ti that fried. Thanks to wonderful people like you, I will be attempting to fix it. Thank you!
Did u fix it?
@@LordScrumpus yeah, just needed a scrub with alcohol 😅👍
Your very professional
Best of all, this board still will not become landfill. It`s parts will also keep a few other boards in working condition. That is always a win.
Increadible, we just looking on a genious work
The Bob Ross of gpus I guess.
Great job man
I like Bob Ross 😄
Lots of fluffy little shortcircuits.
Hey, new sub here. Loving the gpu repair vids, it really is interesting and you being self taught is amazing as well. Just wanted to ask if you repaired any colorful brand gpus, i recently got one and i'm verry happy with it. I wonder how it compares to other brands in terms of build quality and board design.
Hard work and discipline pays off.
You have to admire the man's optimism and care for computer parts.
i could watch bro fix stuff nonstop
I had a single slot Galax Katana GTX 1070 for many years, now it’s been running for a few more years in my partner’s PC. Great little card. Damn thing won’t die.
Great work
Thanks
thx for sharing
Very Impressive!
Damn straight keeping it 1000 round here
I admire this man
hello im a new subscriber and that was amazing i hope you can show us the temperature of hot air when removing components and the amps when you inject some voltage in 1volt etc. by the way thank you so much that was great
Genius inside!
I just started out fixing some gpus as a hobby with different tools/soldeirng equiptment for smd repair and i am glad to hear that destroying a 1060 or similar isnt just my mistake...
Hats off to you sir👏
I envy you
