    "If you are not willing to risk the unusual, you will have to settle for the ordinary." Great work, Joey! Great content with newer versions of these consoles, not many of them being torn down on RUclips so kudos for the attempt on camera :)

      @JoeyDoesTech  6 месяцев назад +6

      I see what you mean, but it's the same cap from 04:50 but the board is the opposite way around. You can see at 04:50 that the pads are indeed factory and have never had a component on them, whilst at this time stamp look at the pads to the top right and they are the same 😊😊

    In the US the warranty stickers means nothing SONY would have to warranty when the sticker is compromised if it is in the warranty period.

    • @t4nk3d402
      @t4nk3d402 13 дней назад

      while this is true they can deny a warranty request if the sticker is void if they can articulate that you damaged something causing the defect. If the sticker is in tact they cannot try that

    9:10 probably doesn't matter now but if you pause right at this timestamp, the pad directly below where you solder that cap back on looks like it where it was supposed to go to me? Just judging by what had solder on it and what didn't. Not sure if it even matters.

      Yes, it does. But if you gaslight your customers that don't know the law, they are less likely to fix things and will just buy a new one. Warranty stickers are meaningless in the US. Look up the magnuson moss warranty act. It's astounding that people these days still think corporations would never do anything shady.

    maybe i'm completely off base here and have no idea what im talking about but why did you not inject voltage and looked for a hotspot with a thermal camera? would that not have most likely told you which component/chip is faulty? also regarding the chips you were trying to salvage off those boards the 070 you probably have to get a donor board for but the 069 i was able to find online for pretty cheap... I've never personally fixed a ps5 but just curious, love the channel.
    actually after reflecting on it I guess the reason you don't buy just 1 chip is because you constantly need spare components so buying the donor boards ends up being cheaper, if that's the case it makes perfect sense. I suppose that is the main reason you got this ps5 slim anyway.
