    I seriously don't get why someone would laugh at what you do. You have proven time and time again that it works, you're enjoying it, legally making money in the process and doing something for the environment as a side effect, who cares if your methods are unorthodox? Instead of being a sheep that follows the herd you're doing things your own way and you're succeeding, this should only be admired and respected!

    Went for a jog through the woods a few weeks ago, came across a pc that someone had rummaged through and left there. It was so random.
    It had a 750w gold rated corsair power supply that caught my eye. Managed to clean it up very well with soap and water and blow it out, and is now in one of my main computers :)
    The mobo/ram/cpu is going in a web browsing computer for my mum.
    It is VERY satisfying to clean old parts and give them new purpose, i'm having a lot of fun. Thank you Tech Yes!

    As a former PC technician myself, I have to say that this has been the most interesting video I've seen of you. No, I haven't seen all of them, but most since summer time in the northern hemisphere. I really liked how you went in depth with the whole procedure and the taboo, water on PC components thing. Also addressing all those who not only laugh at you but think that you are a nut job for washing PC components. Also you gave a good insight on how you feel about it, and your process of thinking. Your smile the end spoke volumes, you definitely had this sense of achievement, nice 😊

    Brian your content has persuaded me to rescue old PCs and see if they can be turned into gaming rigs. I got really lucky one time and found an Intel 6th generation PC at a thrift store that was put in with some Windows XP dinosaurs and nabbed it for 10 bucks. I had also acquired an rx 560 4gb gpu for cheap and turned a good profit on it.

    I used to have a business of cleaning nasty computers and my choice of cleaning was hot water with detergent and a stiff nylon brush. Never failed me so long as I made sure to dry the components well and a dehydrator works fantastic for this stage of the process.

  • @fragalot
    @fragalot Před 2 lety

    Many youtubers use those ultrasonic cleaners but they don't cram in a dozen parts, and they don't use tap water and dish soap. They use distilled water mixed with 99% alcohol, and sometimes alcohol only. Usually they only clean one component, or two small ones since having so many components crammed in there can block the sonic waves to other components, so all you end up doing soaking other parts.
    I like to see you do an experiment Bryan. When you have a LOT of parts to clean, split them up and cram in parts in the sonic cleaner with tap water and soap, and do your normal routine, and then cram in parts in a small tub or bin, with water and soap and let them sit in the same amount of time, and see what the differences are. Because I think the real mojo you do is what you do AFTER the sonic cleaning, blowing air out, and using the all-purpose spray to displace any remaining water.

  • @BootedTech
    @BootedTech Před 2 lety +4

    As much as I love your videos, your cleaning methods are a bit out there.
    Using that ultra sonic is great and nice to see you stepped away from brake cleaner.
    ** Tips **
    After your ultra sonic clean, dump the entire parts in an IPA bath, then in an over that can do 50 degree for about 30 minutes, dries all the water.
    For those watching, never use a hard surface to clean thermal paste off the chips silicon die, use IPA and soft cloth, much safer.
    Bryan, if you have parts that don't work, let me know, I can solder your parts back on, fix and diagnose them. I'll even buy them if you don't want em.

    On the DDR-3 memory module - that missing part is a resistor network - four independent resistors, used to help manage the signal integrity on specific signals. The values of the resistors may vary from one module design to another, but you can often measure other parts on the same or a similar module to find the correct component values.

    I am up for a sonic tutorial. understanding the process is part of learning how to do it, so please and thank you.
    As to the blowers, well YMMV but I fond they don't do as good a job as I want so I manually dry my parts. it takes longer likely but I get to examine every little thing on them and any sketchy things are found.
    A hot air station is just thing instead of a soldering iron. These work fast and are reliable and accurate as to temperature. Under 100 USD and it should have most of the parts you'll need plus solder and flux. Your positive attitude as regards tackling GPU fixing is admirable. Sourcing the needed components can be troublesome but a decent local supply house is something to track down before you go whole hog into this. Good luck, mate.

    I was throwing out thrash a couple of days ago and saw a PC on the side of the road. Brought it back home to take a look. It was caked with dust, and definitely past its prime. There was a label that said that it was sold on October 2010. That was pretty interesting. I definitely wanted to refurbish it and make it look good again as that makes me feel good. However, I gave up after I realised that the system was a bit too old and not worth it. It had one stick of DDR2 800mhz ram, a 250gb HDD. Unfortunately, I could not check what CPU the system had as the cooler was probably stuck onto that. I wish I could find a better system one day haha

No matter how old a piece of tech is, somebody out there will find use for it. Perhaps because they don't have the money to afford the latest and greatest gear, or they simply take an interest in the history of past technology. I hope these motherboards find a good home.

    @kevlarandchrome Před 2 lety

    For anyone who's going to literally wash PC components, make sure that if you have hard water from the tap that you buy a large jug of distilled water to do a final rinse in. Mineral deposits from evaporated tap water can screw up electronics, so rinsing in distilled water removes any of that residue.
