    There is a reason why it is extremely hard to find someone that actually does board level repair, because it is difficult! None of that seems hard for Alex. I would bet if it made business sense, he would never have to classify ANY board as a NO Fix and could potentially fix ANYTHING that came in given a little time. Good job Alex, you are my hero.

    • @brbrbrbrbrbrrb
      @brbrbrbrbrbrrb Před rokem +2

      100% agree. Man's good af. I bet he would even be replacing no fixes by ordering anotherd board just to solve the problem :) (big pcb damage is a no fix, like, if your layers get fused within pcb and short out or like, if a chip solders itself to a layer due to immense heat while failing - typically seen in rare cases with mosfets) - that's also a no fix. Probably if it was the gpu the best you could do if you luck out and no shorts just clean it up, cover with uv resin and suggest to run card undervolted and undercooked with a hard clock limit so that it never hits its full potential again. Hey, a 3080 working at 50% of its preformance is still better than a 1060 6gb :D

    Great skills and thanks for sharing.
    Just a question. When you plugged it in and used the hdmi. What would the effect be by having 1 less mosfet? Would the card just work slower?

    @jesuschal3802 Před rokem

    I wonder if by replacing the mosfets in most of these repairs we are solving the root cause. Is in most cases a problem with the manufacturing of the mosfet, e.g. wide tolerances, or problems with the design of the board, e.g. not enough heat dissipation?

    • @chilloutsloth
      @chilloutsloth Před rokem

      Notice how the customer stated the PC shut down during gaming, it's a common link between the mosfet shorted GPUs Alex gets. I'd assume heat is the issue, as every ASUS laptop has a shorted mosfet, whereas in desktop PCs you practically never see a shorted mosfet on the motherboard. Because they are sufficiently cooled, whereas laptops aren't.

    • @ACOnetwork
      @ACOnetwork Před rokem +2

      There are plenty of other MOSSFETs that do the same thing and if one is missing, still others work😁.
      On the PC motherboards, some of them has way more (some little more) than is needed for most powerfull CPU (processor) so the load can be distributed thru all of them and that means less heat they make, less stressful their work is and so they live longer. Same is for GPUs.
      Hope you understand now. You can also search on CZcams for example *what are mosfets* and learn more 😁👍.
