Cool! Keep up the good work.

You made that look very easy ! I have subscribed looking forward to more videos.
Do you have any video with chipset change and how do you check if chipset has secure boot and married to the CPU.

[@DVRepairs]

Usually chipsets can be replaced without issues after cleaning ME region in bios. But 10th gen onwards gets tricky though.

[@jorgeemilianodiazfuentes148]

With newer laptops there is something called ME region or something like that, do you know what is? and what to do?

[@DVRepairs]

ME region is a part of bios. Usually you clean that after replacing the pch chipset to avoid issues.

[@jorgeemilianodiazfuentes148]

@DVRepairs with cpus with integranted pch is necessary to do something?

[@jaggiemccool7384]

may i ask what temps and air flow do u use for such large chip?
also what temp do you use for the preheater pad?

[@DVRepairs]

Start with 250 and go higher. Max air

[@dontrotter1099]

so do you do intel chipsets as well? i know some are on the cpu package. i watch Sorin and he always says that any replacement cpu/chipset is too suspect to buy from china. any ideas on that? thanks

[@DVRepairs]

I bought many chips from China without issues. Hopefully it stays that way.
