Yeah, those larger caps can fail quite a bit, few times had caps that were exploded or had flare outs roasting the area around it. It's the smaller ones below that have a rare rate of failure.
Hi, since you mentioned this is a common failure on Asus laptop, I wonder if they cheapen out by installing the bare minimum amount of caps, running them to the limit. There are pads for additional caps which are unused.
Aslam o Alakum, hope you are doing well, I always watch your videos and love watching your work. I am from Pakistan. My brother keeps doing great work. My Allah bless you and your family and your big doss too.
Hi Alex. I have an older DELL laptop that when you go to charge it, the charger goes into safety mode and the blue light goes out. I suspect something has shorted on the power rail. I'd love to see a video on something like this someday.
can you do a speedrun for next Asus laptop with no power, put timer on screen and upload whole video without editing? that would be fun to watch... cheers, great job!
I have a problem with an older MSI Z87-g43 gaming motherboard, it doesn't turn on and only when I connect the green and black wires to the 24-pin power supply, it turns on, but it doesn't show a picture....is there anything that can be done....please everyone for help.
Asus has a 6-7% market share of laptops. Watching your channel they seem to be repaired more than 6-7% of the time. Would be interested in the statistics of what you repair.
I have a non powering Asus E510 laptop that I’m almost giving up on, because it’s not as expensive enough for me to ship for repair but also this laptop is barely 5 months old. I’m just in between right now.😢
*checks mofset* oh wait. Let's check over the board, wait hey found the bad cap. Let's fix it, 2 seconds later. So fixed! Haha. Fastest repair in history lol
my strix g15 with a 3070 & a 5900hx died two weeks ago, it boots up & stays in windows for a few minutes & then freezes and the screen turns black & nothing fixes it always the same thing.. even after formatting it freezes during windows installation i got a different ssd with windows installed on it and still five minutes in freezes and i have to force it off.. i tried everything even changing the ram sticks, removing the battery, changing the ssd hell i even replaced the wifi card not to mention repasting both the cpu & gpu and the vrms around them even though it never overheated in the first place. i actually lost my first job just a few days ago cuz i relied on the machine to do my work.. sucks how i spent all my savings on it and now i have laptop that doesn’t work.. never getting an asus laptop again
it might be a short video but it also shows that visual inspection is very useful.
It's still so insane to me that a single tiny capacitor that costs like... a quarter? can make a $1600+ laptop a paperweight.
A quarter cent maybe!? Definitely single digit cent value!
if it were a MacBook everyone would be commenting 'apple makes such crap'... components are components.
ASUS needs their customers to buy new laptops so the common weakpoint is required.
@@chox2001all products do the same thing, only we don't know which components are made that way
I'm pretty sure that the problem is they overheat
Possibly a world’s record. 8 second repair. Absolutely amazing work!
Short and sweet. Only true experts can make that repair look so easy.
Dang........ Appreciate the skill ..... Years of fixing issues to gain this wealth of knowledge !! Hats off to Alex !! Another fantastic job !!
That shirt is better than factory!
😂 indeed
😅
Short Video...Quick Repairing... Because of your several years of Experience & Expertise 👌🏻😉
Caught it on the visual inspection, nice!
Short and sweet, good job! Your skills are experience are obvious. Great to watch an expert at work.
Thanks a lot Akhi Hussain! You made it look really simple, but only an expert can do that! Truly a Gentleman and a Wizard at what he does!
Better than factory...... As always!!
I wish i had someone close like you to teach me these skills. Another nice video, thanks :)
Now that is a power of the visual inspection. Great job as always.
Yeah, those larger caps can fail quite a bit, few times had caps that were exploded or had flare outs roasting the area around it. It's the smaller ones below that have a rare rate of failure.
thanks to your videos i avoided buying an asus laptop, and got a lenovo instead. Thank you!
You have great smt skills. I used to do tons of analog pcb repairs and am anxious to try surface mount.
You look really good in that shirt Alex.
we need a grassroots movement to get Alex to make ONE Big Boss video!!!
Hi, since you mentioned this is a common failure on Asus laptop, I wonder if they cheapen out by installing the bare minimum amount of caps, running them to the limit. There are pads for additional caps which are unused.
Visual inspection on that shirt is awesome! Great job as usual.
How did the macbook ended?
Always BETTER THAN FACTORY ! 👍
What thermal is the best for laptop?
You look quite handsome in that shirt! With love from Pakistan ❤.
What was the value of the new cap?
Aslam o Alakum, hope you are doing well, I always watch your videos and love watching your work. I am from Pakistan. My brother keeps doing great work. My Allah bless you and your family and your big doss too.
Do you have any video on tools you use to repair laptop? If you have, send me a link kindly.
What type of microscope do you use 1x 1200x?
How do you know the right value of the capacitor?
Excuse my ignorance, how do I know which capacitor to replace if I don't have a schematic or donated motherboards? Thank you
Thank you for this amazing repair. can you tell us about the laptop's model ?
Awesome job Alex!!
lucky guy to find a awesome electronics technician
Hi Alex.
I have an older DELL laptop that when you go to charge it, the charger goes into safety mode and the blue light goes out. I suspect something has shorted on the power rail.
I'd love to see a video on something like this someday.
Try a new charger and see if that changes anything
We love long Alex videos but this was a quick fix !!!
Is the issue with these Asus laptops due to their parts supplier (bad MOSFETs) or design (overdriving MOSFETs)?
Cheap nasty parts
i googled - that ceramic cap you replaced is non-polarized! i was worried you could get them backwards :P thanks for the video
Wondering if it was damaged because of an impact (fall etc.) or some other reason it got cracked?
I do enjoy your videos very much your charisma your talent perfect
Great job ! Well done. Why don’t you sell hot tweezer on your site ‘
Hi dude, maybe is the boring question, but i want to know what is your pc spek for work, i mean for doin job with your monitor and microscope?
Could you please tell us all,
What brand is Rufus?
What is the model of the laptop?
im your number one fan since day one☺️
Amazing, makes me wanting to learn more
Where are you from my friend your accent sounds Russian? Awesome job you doing here!
I thought Alex had a wasp on his shirt, until I saw the cable for earpiece..😂🤣😂
Please, show me where is locate the CMOS battery on asus r515ja-bq127t? Thank you very much.
Can you repair a board with the chipset/pch is dead (0 ohms) but is part of the CPU?
How much charged this repair
*Bada bing, bada boom! Said like a true New Yorker.*
Extreamly skilled!
can you do a speedrun for next Asus laptop with no power, put timer on screen and upload whole video without editing? that would be fun to watch... cheers, great job!
What does it cause to dc failure? Is there a way to prevent our laptops to get broken
Why is the cap burned out like that? Is there a way to prevent the cap to burn out?
Yeah not buying a "laptop"
What about the mac book air motherboard?
You are too efficient. Just wow
It fixed it, thank you!!!
Short on a mosfet?
Do you offer fan cleaning services ? Potential revenue source, as this laptop must run at 90° idle with fans this dirty.
They all thermal throttle unlike Laptops from 2004
The Razer sticker broke it!😉
Hello sir i have asus rog G751jm. The issue is during working on laptop laptop is auto powered off and can't show light on/off. I live in Pakistan.

I'm surprised there hasn't been a class action lawsuit about the amount of laptops failing due to what's obviously bad design or component quality.
you have a thermal scanner in your eyes... you don't need a thermal camera😂 as usual, well done 👍
aw man I had planned on buying an asus rog strix g16 (2023) gaming laptop. thanks for the heads up👍
asus qc is ass don't buy anything from them they have been doing this shit alot lately
@@xvfdu4 Their PSUs don't last worth damn.
Dont bother with a "laptop" they all thermal throttle
Alex you look damn good in this white shirt ❤❤❤❤
"Flux is your friend!" 👈👀
Great job
let me guess... the short will go and the joint will be better than factory
a 5 min job, very nice experience make this
my strix g15 with a 3070 & a 5900hx died two weeks ago, it boots up & stays in windows for a few minutes & then freezes and the screen turns black & nothing fixes it always the same thing.. even after formatting it freezes during windows installation i got a different ssd with windows installed on it and still five minutes in freezes and i have to force it off.. i tried everything even changing the ram sticks, removing the battery, changing the ssd hell i even replaced the wifi card not to mention repasting both the cpu & gpu and the vrms around them even though it never overheated in the first place. i actually lost my first job just a few days ago cuz i relied on the machine to do my work.. sucks how i spent all my savings on it and now i have laptop that doesn’t work.. never getting an asus laptop again
Dont waste your money on any "laptop"
It was a piece of cake🎉🎉🎉
I love when you roast your viewers/customers bc of their stupidity. Can you roast me please?
Perfect 👍
Hello sir i need work please help me
They really should make heat resistent capacitors
great vid a tea time fix,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, thx for posting ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
I guess the question is "why would the cap crack"?
Poor qa
Mosfets & Caps are having 1yr lifespan compared in previous generations. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I try to smell first, then visual inspection!!
you are good.
What can you do? The short is gone!
Awesome ✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻
Yep
We have picture. Can't believe.
Good looking shirt.
I would guess a small barborshop vacuum
I think you're just a bit psychic, on top of very very experienced
I didn`t watch the video yet but i`m 99% sure is a short :))
