Dang, he got some balls to do this
Yes you need balls to solder ;)
😂
Lol
allot of balls
balls of lead is preferred
Such patience to reball a core by hand, it still blows my mind you're doing this after watching you for 6 months. Good job!
No stencil? He indeed has some balls.
Reballing without a stencil is mad respect
Today I got about 3/4 of the way through reballing a NAND flash, heating it periodically to fuse the placed balls, and after a while I just start to get double vision and can't go further.
@@soundspark jesus. did you end up finishing it?
I stumbled upon your channel by chance, and I must say, I was blown away by the incredible skills you possess in repairing video cards! Watching you diagnose and fix these high-complexity chips with such precision and expertise felt like witnessing a true artist at work. It's mesmerizing to see the level of care and dedication you put into each repair, (the landfill delima), turning what might have been discarded GPUs into fully functional masterpieces.
In today's fast-paced world, it's unfortunately common for many to just throw away electronic devices when they encounter issues, contributing to the "throw it away" society. But you, sir, are making a significant difference. By providing a place for people to get their GPUs repaired, you're not just saving these valuable components from ending up in landfills, but you're also promoting sustainability and a more thoughtful approach to technology.
Your passion for what you do and the way you value the importance of giving these GPUs a second chance speak volumes about your good character. It's evident that you genuinely care about helping others and making a positive impact in the tech community and gamers lol. People like you inspire hope for a better, more conscious future, and I'm grateful to have come across your channel.
Keep up the fantastic work, and please continue sharing your incredible talent with the world. We need more individuals like you, who remind us that repairing and repurposing can be just as awe-inspiring as creating something new. To quote another U-Tuber AvE, "MORE STUFF FOR THE LANDFILL!" Not here!
I like that you're making the videos more artistic. It's a nice change of pace and also it was cool to see your workspace in full.
Thank you for ur work. Louis Rossmann sparked my interest in board repair videos and your videos are very calm and relaxing. I appreciate your work and admire your patience.
You just know there is something wrong with you when watching a high speed manual reball video gives you an intoxicating sense of satisfaction :) As an IT professional with OCD that never backs down from a challenge I really appreciate what you are doing here!!
This is amazing, thank you for uploading these to RUclips, I hope it brings you a lot of business!
NWR. Please don't think of yourself as a "Technician with NO LIFE" even in fun - negativity begets negativity. If you don't want it then don't make it a thing, simplez! I'm pretty sure you're above that. What you show on this channel far exceeds what you seemingly think your impact is on this slice of a RUclips/Industry speciality. We are lucky to know you!
See we've all got somethin' that we've trapped inside
That we try to suffocate, you know hoping it dies
Try to hold it underwater, but it always survives
Then it comes up out of nowhere like an evil surprise
Then it hovers over you to tell you millions of lies
You don't relate to that, must not be as crazy I am
The point I'm makin' is the mind is a powerful place
And what you feed it can affect you in a powerful way
It's pretty cool, right? Yeah, but it's not always safe
Just hang with me, this will only take a moment, okay?
Just think about it for a second if you look at your face
Every day when you get up and think you'll never be great
You'll never be great
Not because you're not but the hate
Will always find a way to cut you up and murder your faith
--NF - THE SEARCH(its a song)
I like the way you think but the reality is, I have no family of my own, no girlfriend, no friends.
I moved from a good paying job in Washington to a low paying job in Kentucky.
Two months later I got fired as if I was a criminal.
Right now this is all I do, rolling balls all day 😂
Even calling myself a "technician" is too much for who I am in reality.
But I wish I was more of a dreamer like most people. Thinking positive even when everything is falling apart.
@@northwestrepair sir, you have a problem of underestimating yourself.
If your mental health is bringing you down then go improving it again and again, at first is stupidly hard, it gets better with time.
@@northwestrepair
Don’t worry Tony, time will come to chill and rest. I have a feeling that sooner or later everyone become a miner and even old GPUs will rocket price. the more good person is the more kiks gets from life and you are a life example of this rule! I wish you all all best!!!
What you do and the knowledge you have is amazing! I’m surprised you aren’t a computer engineer or equivalent.
Sorry to hear that the move hasn’t worked out for you.
Perhaps join some clubs relating to some activities you enjoy outside of working? Some sort of sports team? Get some exercise at the same time. Make some new acquaintances and maybe some friendships will develop or you might even meet a lady friend.
Beautiful work sir
I can feel the pain from all over here. Thanks for showing the great work you do.
Admire the time spent on doing the reball. Thanks for sharing
Very impressive. Thank you for another informative upload.
This is impressive. Nice work.
dude! you earned my respect and a subscribe. hands down for your patience
It's very satisfying after seeing the positive results in every repair.
You sir, are an ARTIST!
I still think it is insane that you do this at all. This is basically art.
Damn bro, respect for this hard work
Your patience and dedication are truly inspiring :o
I try
@@northwestrepair You do succeed !
@@northwestrepairy dont you use a stencil and solder paste?, or even stencil with balls, y do it manually?
Manually recalling a 390 core, damn.
I personally bought a little ptc preheater to heat to whole core to around 120C, using my heatgun alone I often saw problems with the balls flying away etc.
High end of professionalism
Edge attention to details
best Master ever!
Dude you have patients of a saint to do that Amazing
Your sense of humor is on point, Tony. 😂
the dexterity involved in this work is amazing
Your hard work is being noticed, your RUclips Channel is growing friend, endure. We all suffer, it is in the end not for nothing.
Good job mate
Thanks
Meanwhile over at Northridge Fix: "OK so the GPU is dead we're gonna send this card back to the customer".
Thermal Camera shows no hotspots = GPU Dead. Also pay 100$ for repair attempt 🤡
It is smart to do like this,you will get paid for you inspection and you will not lose time .the most thing he do are connectors easy fix and if costumer send him a text with specific repair like changing an IC he will do it he will not care if it will work or not that's also smart getting money for what you are asked to do not for fixing the device
I believe we're going to be seeing cards coming to Tony that Northbridge fix just couldn't fix 😂
I've to say, this guy has really good hand-eye coordination. If I was doing that, I'd take it 10x more time at least.
well done!
Your videos are paying off. 3k more subs!
Not sure why
Nice work and dedication placing that many balls
You rock!
This is amazing to watch
beautyful!
These Videos are Fucking Art!
note: this video is not sped up, this guys is that much a pro, he is that fast.
Your a machine... Respect 💪
I thought you were gonna say *Technician with steady hands*🤣
And patience... I do hope you get things sorted soon.
What an absolute mad lad
Excellent video. I just wish you didn’t fast forward the part where they start to melt and align themselves, it’s the most satisfying part of this whole process.
Awesome video
Thanks!
I love building computers have been since I was 13 I'm 37 now. but I don't have the patience for all this. Mad props man
I like how when he heats the socket, when they reach whatever temperature they all just slide perfectly into place.
Amazing.
Awesome...
I am glad i’m not the only crazy person which reballs without a stencil :)))
Music has a nice groove.
You have so much patience
That's incredible. you would be a god in any mad max situation being able to breathe life into broke electronics like that.
dont ever stop doing what your are doing..
If anything, I need to do it even more.
Imagine sneezing after you just put the last ball
😂
Do you do motherboard socket replacement? How much is it to do a LGA 1700 socket?
Amazing work! Are you using the silkscreen as your alignment reference? And you did jiggle it at the end a little right?... presumably to persuade any stubborn balls to make contact? Sorry for the 20 questions (particularly if this is covered in another video) - just making sure I picked up all the tips.
The absolute madman.
I wish I had your skills dude!
you do, it's just not developed yet. practice practice practice
they absolute hell of this kind of thing makes me glad i didnt go down this route and just did a general technician and computer hardware specialist. But maybe it can be relaxing as you do it 4000x in a few hours and it fails to boot :D
Stencils are made to help. This is their purpose. The man showed his craft but it's way better to use stencils (if you can, if you have them).
This guy is a baller.
Love the opening with If I had a chicken
he's got a very lot of patience on this one 👌👌👌👌👍👍👍👍
well done
you da man!
I am a hard man to impress but this impressed me hugely NWR
hope the bill pays the intensive labor xD . question here. how you choose the right size of the balls that fit into the pads? having stencils is great because you have the reference balls size and placement, if you don't have one then have no idea what balls size would perfectly fit there
Dude. You rock hardcore.
This is also in a way an escape from depression if you view it in a fun way but after a while it does become very tedious at that point you need a break
I think you should put out a tutorial series on how to fix a GPU from the simple (cleaning) to complex (reballing, etc.). Release a trailer and make it somehow PPV and I would happily pay money for that. Cheers!
Amazing! What is the music? It puts me into a trance.
That was painful, even in fast mode!👍
This looks like fun although I'm not sure what you're doing. I have taken apart a GPU before and I also built my current PC but I want to do this it looks fun
Applause 👏👏
Just the thought of messing this up by accident is giving me anxiety.
0:17 I wish things get better for you soon.
Hey cmon now, don't say that, I know maybe that was a joke but it felt ... real, the no life paper thingy
You inspire me a lot, and you are doing a great thing for the world. I know it doesn't do anything for you, but if we could meet irl, I'd be honored to be your friend. I'd love to hear the stories you have fixing parts, explain to me what is what, and teach me, sensei!
Please value yourself a little bit more :)
Thank you for all the hard work you do!
I didn't know reballing cores was this manual, so much patience and steady hand required! I assumed you used the mask thingies for these like for the memory chips too!
He got the balls of lead!
0:18 relatable
Would it not make sense to put down some flux paste first to give the balls at least a little something to hold on to? Seems like they'd be less likely to get knocked around but I've never manually reballed this. I'm sure it's just as fun as it looks.
how much time did it take you to put all the balsl on their pads?
💪
Compared to those Smartphone SOCs, I'd say it's "tedious" rather than "hard"...
A shake in hand will ruin a lot of work...
But why don't use steel stencil? Is it a 4090 or something (too new to have a stencil available)?
He must have gotten those stencils I see in all his videos since this time.
I'd move 3 out of position every time I position 1 correctly. 😂😂😂
Wow you really got balls posting this, lmao. Thanks for the video
I need to make a Timestamp cut of these videos just in the Ambient Techno scenes and keep it on shuffle to display on my 65" monitor
Can we upgrade to any gpu chipset to any laptop mainboard? Or is there only a specific gpu chipset that can fit on a mainboard?
i dont understand why they dont make the gpu like the cpu plug and play with just 1 slide and its fixed
Impressive work ! Dumb(maybe) question, why not using a stencil and solder paste ?
Simple,He like the hard way.i think he had already everything he need for doing this like that I think he could do this easy if he had the IC holder it will take 2 minutes to rearrange all balls ,but that is his way we have nothing to complain about .
@@jeanmichel9207 yeah, this is HIS way. No complains...
need to start a GoFundMe to just buy this dude a video card
Do you think it would be worthwhile to make a masking template each generation so you could more easily handle work like this?
cheaper to buy already made once
Harder than reballing memory, easier than going an entire video with commentary that doesn't trash talk another RUclipsr 😂
I guess it's not practical to have a stencil for every chip out there? That is incredible patience.
hence the "technician with no life", most technician not gonna do it, maybe that graphic card are special to him
My heart felt pain watching this video. There has to be some way of acquiring stencil, maybe 3D print one, I don't know....
F that. That Was....Magical...!
i would do this once, it wouldn't boot, and i'd cry myself to sleep
And then the customer:
"Free!?"
What is the device at 3:46? I assume that was just to clean the GPU of any debris? What is it called?
Someone should make this man some stencils.
And then I read the comments. I imagine the market is flooded with cheap stencils, do you have a go to brand or shop?
This takes alot of balls
NICE (re)BALLZ!
