@LiquidSnakeSSJ49 months ago accidentally spilt tea on my pc (3090) a few months ago and to my surprise after opening it up & drying it in IPA, replacing thermal pads ect it still works. while cleaning the pcb, i accidentally knocked off a filter cap and at first was freaking out about being able to solder it back on, but it works fine without it. really puts into perspective how skilled repair technicians are at dealing with things like this . crazy how anyone can achieve running a trace on such tiny pads .. ...Expand 42

@cldpt9 months ago I cannot recommend enough kriticalpads for evga cards, probably also great on other cards. I got some shipped frim us to europe because they were, at the note though one of the inductor sides (closest to the pcie metal bracket) does not make perfect connection with the heatsink on the top of its row, but i' ve monitored temps there with an ir thermometer and it' s fine. ...Expand 2

@jamsgames87429 months ago Temps are amazing on this card regarding the high wattage it uses. I undervolted my suprim x 3070ti to 906mv @ 1950mhz was getting 70% fan speed at 71c . ...Expand 1

@muramusan9 months ago What a guru but weird the temps werent better i get better temps on my 6900xt thanks to you im st 3090 performance but evga was the best in terms of cooling might just be a bad vapor chamber or something defective.

@sk0mi9 months ago I like your videos, very helpful and informative. Thank you
before you started repairing gpus what tools did you already own?
i am i id="hidden16"ntersted how much did you invest in tools.
did you buy them all at once or you procured all through time?
what' s the most basic tools we would need to have to start repairing like you did? Same goes for software.
i know, we should also have at least basic knowledge in electronics, how things work i mean, diodes, resistors, caps.
thanks again. ...Expand

@RadioactivePretzels9 months ago Are the torn pads under the memory the original problem? Or an unlucky side effect during removal? 1
@

@rinner28019 months ago Those temps are still better than my crappy 3080fe.
@

@MatthewSuffidy9 months ago Do memory chips go bad by themselves for some reason? Is overclocking a factor? Would you say those pads were damaged by the removal or the problem?

@kdizzy079 months ago Love the video. Hope you don' t get claimed for the music. 1
@

@MrNside9 months ago Tell the owner to try undervolting it a bit to mitigate higher vrm temps. Usually you can undervolt a little without losing any performance as the stock chances are the silicon in this card is at least a little better than the absolute worst. So it shouldn' t need all the volts to be stable. ...Expand

@silitekmodder56819 months ago Shows why i don' t bother with pads anymore, modern putties perform far better and easier to properly install. Worth the mess in my opinion.

@

@n0n0n0n09 months ago And by looking at the temps thats why i swear by quality liquid metal but its not for the faint at heart it needs to be done correctly not for the unexperienced.
@

@SkateClipsAndTips9 months ago 3080 runs hot like hell, same with 3090, i think it needs to be undervolted.
@

@UrokLizard9 months ago Theres just no mounting pressure for left vrm' s because no screws. It' s a design defect, probably why they use thermal putty.
