I hope I never have to send you a card for repair but I sure as heck am happy to know that you are out there in case I do.
He is the man. Super honest and great prices.
I feel the opposite way, kinda want to find one of my old dead cards to see if he can revive them. There'd be no use case for them though, as they're quite old.
@@CrackerSmith maybe just give him that maybe you could resuse its components
I'm glad I never bought Zotac . I always went 4 MSI , Evga or Asus.
@@adamtajhassam9188 agreed. My first choice was EVGA. Second MSI.
I'm sure the customer will be very happy!
Excellent repair and a lot of attention to details, that's what you need for a quality repair.
Thanks 👍
7:57 I know I would most certainly be happy.
Love the fixing those 3080Ti tho and finding 2 - 3 problems in 1 video solved correctly.
Can't wait for future 40-series fixing or odd problem :D
yep looks like his going to be busy soldering the new connecter when its available, having to unvolt mine at present only had it yesterday after RMA, melted connecter after 9 months
@@martinmalone6324 what model fo you have?
@@greggreg2458 gigabyte gaming oc.
@@martinmalone6324 the connector and the lack of the 4090ti are the 2 reasons i have no upgraded yet supper infuriating GeForce didn't listen to PCI sig (manufacture of the connector) when they told them it was bad and they didn't want to sell it
I wonder where that rust came from. Thanks for the video.
The bug
I'm surprised there is not a single comment about how a random insect got in the backplate of all places. Sure there are empty spaces because of chips and whatnot, but being so close to the core where the retention bracket is, really made me jump that a random inscet decides to take a stroll in a hot area.
I know right? What are the chances?
I feel like the bug was hanging out when the pc was off.As soon as it was started he was roasted
tiny bugs can go anywhere from ps4's to inside pc monitors
I hate the idea so much
This gpu reminded me of the time when my internet router slot got filled with dead ants... 😂
a stink bug shorted my ROG Extreme Encore mother board. I literally watched it bounce off a fan. Into another fan on the AIO which splatted it straight into the mother board. system instantly powered off. after cleaning the motherboard it wouldn't get out of Bios, i installed a fresh bios. system would not even boot to bios. i called it ruined there and starting tearing it down. found out it shorted something hard enough to melt 1 single pin on the mother board. Its a sad say when you loose a 1100$ Motherboard but it did end up prompting me to upgrade from the old 9980XE to the 12900ks (which was the best that was out at the time). Good content! sad to see another person was victim to bug juices. i count myself lucky i can afford to eat the cost. a lot of people cant. i cant image the stress.
Same mobo. Luckily I managed to flip the switch on my power supply as the stinkbug was bouncing off the fans. Got very lucky since it's still running perfectly. I've since moved to a different area with less bugs.
Wow 😂
Love watching your videos .. so well explained .. with no extra nonsense
Such gouges could be devastating especially considering the heft of those coolers.
Nuts to me that passes any inspection lmao
@@nicekeyboardalan6972 They definitely aren't looking that close. There was probably some metal debris in the manufacturing process.
wow, your working desk is much cleaner than mine, my tools have a tendency to hide in the most discreet places. ( sobbing and murmuring incoherently )
😂
Mine too but I try to keep it clean while recording.
@@northwestrepair thank you, i feel better now
a friend of mine had the amp extreme holo 3080 non TI, and at the beginning it was running decently well, not great but not super high either, but a year later the gpu started going so high under 50-60% utilization, high 80s and hotspot over 100"C and would immediately crash on anything even with a 200mv undervolt and underclock to decrease temps, he RMAd it and then returned it to him saying nothing was wrong with it, of course he got angry because the testing metodology was just "used some titles" and one of them was oblivion listed on their testing, he contacted zotac directly instead of CCL (which was the site that sold him the gpu) and zotac themselves said it wasn't right, he sent it back once more and they just gave him a full refund, no repair or replacement, just the whole money back
I've been using Zotac for over a decade and never had any major problems and their customer service was always excellent.
same story with my EVGA cards cant beat the customer support! Somehow i have had about 20 ish ASUS cards as I used to and still do run multiple rigs and i have never had a single fault with any of them sense the NVIDIA GeForce GT 640 was a thing.
its nice
this channel had like 24-26k subs today when yt recommended it to me. Now it has 30k. GJ youtube! lets make this guy famous
Great! Man, the things one learn watching your videos. Awesome work as usual!
Very informative video. The upmost of professionals good sir 🎉
Many many thanks
Very informative and enjoyable video. Thank you for another upload.
Thankyou so much for sharing the gouging of the core issue. I had no idea that was a thing!!!!! God damn, I learn several things with each of your videos.
Great vid as always , make it look to easy my friend . keep up the great work !
Thanks 👍
That's where a "bug in the program" phrase came from. First computers were programed using switches to flip bits on and off. Roaches had got in and chewed the wiring, causing a short, which caused it to not be able to be programmed properly
Nice value in the video showing the construction and room for improvement in such an expensive card
You remember me of James May, you both have the ability to make otherwise tedious and mundane tasks very entertaining... Maybe even therapeutic... 😅
What scares me is those "gouges" and things like air gapes in thermal paste applications. It becomes worse where there is no temp sensor in that area of the silicon chip
Man this channel is awesome - after way too much thought, I bought a Zotac AMP Extreme, another chipset, but read a lot before buying.
I was wondering if this "AMP /AMP Extreme" series is any good, I wondered how other cards of this series with different chipsets are made.
Guess it took some years to find Louis, to KrisFix, to NorthRidge to here to find your channel, nice!
Hope your business is doing well and you're around for many years and a lot of youtube content; couldn't figure a better way for making graphics card buying decisions myself than to look at what the guy who has to repair them all day long has to say about them.
Hope the damn YT algo does it's thing and puts your channel up in the recommendations of Louis's crowd
Hello, I am from Louis crowd and his channel was recommended to me.
@@TheSwayzeTrain Who cares about Macbooks anyway
how's your zotac 3090 bro? is it any good?
So cool, These GPU servicing videos are so interesting.
ZOTAC is absolutely well known for cutting corners and cheaping out on most of their designs, hardware and coolers selection lol
yeah that's totally the cause of the corrotion and a nasty bug, imagine the place this gpu is
Well done! 👏 Youre the best content maker on this platform! On the point, exceptionally explained, very knowledgeable and skilled.
Anf finallt no shenanigans, annoying BS with click to sub and turn notification on.. no product placement or adds.
THANK YOU for being one of the good ones ♥️
I got that 4 year warranty. Hope I never have to use it tho.
I do 6month upkeep in my pc. New thermal paste. Dust it out. Clean it. Etc
👍 Good Job Mate as always
Thanks 👍
Well done
Good job on the repair :)
Great video thanks 🎉
we saw the owner of the voice, nice repair mate!
It may be easy, but it was really nice. For me it would have been an impossible one. Thanks for your work. BTW, did you manage to get a job in another place?
Wonderful. The easiest repair in the world, why? You are brilliant. 🙏👏👏👏🙏
This video drew me in because I have this exact same card. Stock, hotspot hits nearly 105C under full load.
not good
Great video Tony really enjoy watching your work my dude. I miss doing that type of work myself. Where can I get those Schematics you were using?
I have almost no idea (although, I know what the transistor, resistor diode etc is), but I find your videos strangely fun to watch!
with all the gpu's you work on will you give us a graph/chart that shows us the vendors. that way we can see which brands are holding up better than others. Would be interesting to see out of 1000 cards for example. how many were msi, zodac, evga, ect..
Love the music, sounds like a KrisFix video :)
It's a European thing.
These videos are therapeutic for me, thank you.
Are you located in Oregon?

Another top job! Well done! gold star for you ⭐
"watches video.......... Buys a can of raid...."
For the algorithym
Yes !
Feed it!
Congrats on debugging it! You are a great debugger.
Better than.....y :-) So I feel that You are in good mood, any new job awaiting??? Thanks for always showing the diagnostic procedures!
@northwestrepair stop you making me blush XD new sub earned.
Hello Tony. Thank you!
You can easily determine the value of a corroded resistor. Corrosion usually affects only the contacts, so by gently scraping off the corrosion, you can reveal the resistive layer on the top and then measure it with a multimeter 😉
Not always. I could not measure the resistor.
really good content
Impressive! Good work
insane work
Love hi end cards, it is more worthwile, hoping to see your nemesis amd's soon tho.
DAMN NICE JOB
Zotac has improved over the years. I remember my 580 back in the day. That card was solid.
cant say the same for my zotac gtx 570, it was a really bad card
do you happen to do vram upgrades too? I heard someone figured out you can double the vram on those 3070s but havent found anyone that offers this service.
These videos are so addictive
So what are your overall thoughts about Zotac?
Is it possible for you to make a video/list of the tools required to get into refurb and maybe a detailed guide even just verbally in what your using for a specific part of the cards your repairing
Damn... what's with that corrosion? Does the guy game in the rainforest?
Ton of used card on the market right now are Zotac, i guess the rumor about them selling directly to miners is true.
Great job repairing that Buggy GPU! 🙂
Can you.... upgrade a 3070Ti memory from 8GB to its max?
Great video
Thanks!
Years ago I found out PMY is the maker of nVidias Quadro line. When I asked why the rep said frankly "because they overbuilt thier cards" while I cannot say that now that was good enough for me once EVGA left the market.
PNY is a trash brand tho
Rep saying rep thing is not surprising. They were probably the cheapest AIB offering, it's often just that simple
@@nicekeyboardalan6972 Not really. There's no good or trash brands only good or trash products. I have a PNY 3070 3-fan and it undervolts to .85mv. Temps are usually 30-40C and it's easily the most quiet card I've ever owned.
Anyway, I'm sure they have some trash products but their XLR8 lineup is quite good. I'd say comparable with MSI Gaming X Trio. They're also the only US-based AIB still alive.
is it possible to update rx 7600 8gb vram to 12gb or 16gb vram by memory upgrade??
because i saw you swap meomry though
I'd like to send a card, but it would cost an arm and a leg to get there across the ocean 😱
I have one of these cards. The lighting was beautiful but derped out. The card still preforms well tho so i just turned off the lighting.
great job... comments help
Thanks for watching!
very good temp for 400w card. other 3080 ti s 350w tbp.
Great work
According to your experience who makes the best GPUs from a cooling and overall build quality aspect? I wanna know where I'm gonna spend my hard earned dollar!! Thank you for the amazing videos
I have a holo amp 3070. I couldn't resist the eye candy
I like your work
Thanks 👍
Excellent work! Why wouldn't they send it for warranty exchange?
because it was water damaged....you missed that at the beginning
Hey N-W, do you think that it's safe for an untrained person to attempt to cut off gouges with a razor like you did? It looked like a very easy fix, so I'm considering doing it if my next graphics card has gouges on the heatsink's mating surface. Also, was that isopropyl alcohol you used to clean the mating surface?
Doing it on the heatsink should be fine as long as you take it slow and take care not to add any extra scratches or gouges.
I don't have the skills he has but I've always pulled apart my own parts to clean them.
Did you change your filming setup because the videos are looking much more blurrier than usual? streaming in 1080p and it's looking like 480p for some reasons...
Too many videos, we're gonna overdose.
Whats with System failed to find boot and No Card Info can be found errors at 6:10 starting here
You didn't identified the bug ;-)
Sorry. I should have.
My 2060 super is dead I loved that card 😢 you are in the other side of the world. My husband bought me 4060 ti instead, and from zotac too! I hope it's not broken like the zotac 3080 ti in the video 😢
Oh boy...
Your husband has got to stop burning money on bad video cards. Enjoy your new card
@@gateopssss I just asked him about the bad reviews of 4060ti he said he didn't know about it, he just bought it on a whim because he believes in nvidia for a long time now, even though he very rarely plays games anymore because of his work. And thanks, I have no complaints about my new 4060ti yet. It's very quiet than my old 2060 super.
@@aria.e If you ever encounter issues such as stuttering which may very likely happen on max settings on these newest games, dropping the settings to high should help out (unless its a badly optimized game)
AMD RX 6700 XT is highly recommended to any gamer who are on 1080p and 1440p, it is on par with RTX 3070 and it's 12 GB of VRAM is a huge plus in the long run :) I wrote this if you decide to switch, but i doubt since you're happy with the 4060 ti, enjoy! It's still a very good card overall, just it's price doesn't justify the given performance
@@gateopssss hi, nowadays I just play games like diablo 4, overwatch, a bit of black desert, cyberpunk and a lot of story of seasons and never experience any stutter, well once or twice, also I never use max settings and I'm playing on 1080p monitor with 75hz. No Im not going to switch it'll be bothersome, I'll take what I have.
That bug got what it deserves
Even if the intention was not to destroy the card
nice man good jop
Tanks
Dang nvidia now making a 3008ti they must really be desperate to get us to buy there bricks of greed 😂 jokes but i think zotac really came back from making bad low quality issue parts since 1080 ti days. But good repair and guess the customer had some cola 🥤 while gaming to hard hahah
Zotac got the message a long time a go to stop making bull crap or you will be selling your cards on Ally Express! not main streame anymore. I have a Zotac amp EX and love it
Bug took the hottest club in town too serious
Stock thermal pads on these are shite, change them asap.
well bugs are kinda conductive in a way 😂😂
What is the PSU are you using to testing this cards ? Thanks
Zotac,Manli etc wouldnt buy anything higher than a 3060, currently using a 1650 2fan DDR6 zotac in my htpc no complains.
Антошка, пойдём копать картошку. 😁
Is a good card i so own 3 of those generations. I am saving to send 1 for fix. Amd i meed to get a cooler also
amazing....
Does this count as ASMR? I find it relaxing for unknown reasons.
This guy is amazing af!!! You are awesome!
So you accept console repairs? I'm lost with some of my hardware 😢
never fixed a console on my life but willing to try anything really.
The repair cost is the same no matter the device so it has to make sense to fix it in the first place.
Bought a Zotac 3080/12 year and half ago for 650 euros. No problems whatsoever so far. Card is quiet, temps are good (74C is max I've seen during stress test) and runs all the games I play well at 4k.
Similar experience with my Zotac 2080 Super from 2019, around £650. Not a single problem in 4 years of pretty heavy use, temps are normally similar, but sometimes go up to 83°C during long gaming sessions, under full load.
My previous card was an ITX form factor GTX 970 from Gigabyte, which gave me no end of problems, with constant black screens after ~1-2 hours of gaming.
I'll definitely be buying a Zotac for my next GPU upgrade, primarily for the incredible 5 year warranty and reasonable pricing!
Were can you get that memorytest for tinycorelinux? Anone has a link?
I'm surprised that no one has mentioned that benchmark score. My MSI 3060 which is 5 rungs down the ladder with a mild overclock scored within 200 points on Superposition and only 800 points lower in stock trim. Not much performance gain for the extra $800-$1000 difference in price. Is that the Zotac under performing or is that an across the board score?
i just ran superposition with my 3080 non Ti from Msi and got 23789 score on the same settings as his. i think his score is so low because the core i5 in his system is bottlenecking the gpu
@boofygoofy3758 It's ridiculous to state facts? I never said that 3060's were as good as 3080ti's. I simply checked my score and even ran a fresh test to confirm my score. I anly compared my MSI 3060 to THIS Zotac 3080ti. I even asked if this was normal or just this card. I got an actual reply that stated his 3080 Non ti scored 11000 points higher than this card and even offered a possible explanation for the low score. Before getting all butthurt, or giving a half-assed reply, Try checking other reviews that show Zotac cards consistently score lower than other brands.
A rat did the same thing to my car. It's body shorted out the fuel filter pump
"fuel filter pump".....that's a good one
What is that circuit above and were to buy thanks
