@@northwestrepair what are the common issues for used RX 470 msi miner not working? ) 3 year old already, whenever I connect the 8pin to gpu , psu will shutdown, lol.
ì like the powercolor devils graphics card have the 5700x myself, didnt even remember the brand ;p haha but it works very good, if you like to tweak it that is, atleast because the original drivers didnt work for me that well, but is nothing new @ amd i have heard they got way better driver wise but i still run 3rd party nimez pro radeon drivers instead of the commercial ones. component wise i wouldnt know.
for the gigabyte fan header pins being swapped, could be that just the plastic guide that goes around the pins on the PCB got removed and put on backwards, so the only way to plug it in was in the flipped direction.
Always awesome work great vid man you do a good job , been wanting to learn soldering better , anyway maybe you could do a pointers vid sometime when doing a repair but great vids keep up the great work !
i like your expertise aswell, i am interested in fixing electronics too but most i did see fixed was laptops, macs and ps5s/nintendo switches wich dont really interest me everything pc wise is other dimension for me, cool 5 out of 5 fixed or 4 out of 4 i dont know but you fixed them all, very inspiring content, thanks i come back to see more of your magiq hands @ work ;p good evening/night/day whatever it is when you read.
With the first video. I think what happened is the original owner tried to remove the fan header and the bracket on the motherboard came off with the header and they could not remember which way it went back on and put it on backwards I think.
If the fan pins are in reverse order I suspect that the connector shell was pulled off the board (leaving the pins in the board) at some point and put back the wrong way round. Real easy to do especially if the connector is warm. I've been trying to track down all the handy test equipment you use in your videos and I've got most of it worked out but I can't get anywhere with that "data line tester". I'm assuming it tests each PCIe lane for short/open by looking for the transmitter/receiver impedance, which sounds real handy. Any tips for finding one? Googling the name on the board doesn't work if everything on it is Chinese (at least not for me).
1. I OCR'd a screenshot of the name (after some tweaking and color reversal, cause free OCR is baaad) and here's what it came out with: [ AGP PCI-E顯卡維修栓 ] 2. I googl'd that and tweaked the search a bit and came out with the search term: [ AGP PCI-E 16X ] 3. Googl'd that yet again and found the product: [ AGP PCI-E 16X Dual-purpose socket tester ] - available on aliexpress for roughly $40 4. You're welcome.
very nice work! regarding the annoyance of needing to go via the igpu to see the console on amd cards, you could try to use ssh to access the terminal from another pc. you essentially would only need to make sure that there is some kind of ssh server running on the t-server and that you have a network connection between the two computers. maybe this helps :)
@@northwestrepair nah, it's not complicated. apparently i can't put any links here because my comments keep disappearing, but a video on youtube called "How to enable SSH on Linux Ubuntu (Easy step by step guide)" shows the setup well. but maybe ssh is already set up by default anyways :D one problem you might be running into though is that your ubuntu version may be too old and you can't simply download the openssh-server package (if not installed already). there is a thread on askubuntu called "How to install software or upgrade from an old unsupported release?" that should help out with that. so i'd suggest you try it out, it might save you quite some time in the long run :)
As an amd gpu owner i was disapointed that i didnt see the on-screen symptoms. Maybe it was bcuz my 8gb 470 displays pairs of 4 dots forming a square all over the screen and even a webpage with just text creates artefacts as black lines
Asus h81m cheapest board I could find. Also, be sure to book as UEFI or legacy if doesn't work. Some programs work only one way or another so manually ovveriding it may be the option for you. Turn off secure boot and enable legacy boot in your Bios.
Hi can you, can you give me advice on changing the memory on any gpu, problem is that when i replace a memory chip, in like 50% of the time same memory chip dies again after some time im use like one month, i think its the memory controler in gpu itself but is it that common to have bad mem controlers? and how can i suspect a bed memory controler.
You dont need to flash it, you just need to open Nvidia control panel and select your mining GPU as a primary source for gaming. mining gpus dont have video output but so this way image comes from onboard video while gpu power is from mining card.
If you need a repair, please contact me using a link in the description.

Dear sir, thanks to you ive become interested at repairing GPUs at my area, your methods work amazingly well thank you
Glad to hear that
Wow you are great
With fun and useful information
Thanks for that and i hope your channel will keep growing you deserve it
I hope so too.

learning a lot watching your channel!!
i really enjoyed your video i hope you continue to grow.
This channel is amazing!

You may be right. Cannot confirm without taking a close look.
You are amazing! I was looking for some info,how to test mem. for radeon cards and here it is !

GG tips and DIY for buying and gaming with used GPU bought online.
Thank you for your help! It works perfectly!
Had a 1070 ftw since 2016 thing still works perfectly. Miss EVGA.

I'd love to see a video for laymen, showing what you're doing... flux, solder, all that, not instructional, just explaining how it works.
Amazing work.❤️
Well done, nicely done video, thanks 🙃

This videos help to go sleep faster ty asmr
how about if fans speed at low rpm at full load, and high rpm in idle . i have 2 cards like this.
If it ain't broke, fix it until it is. That's my motto!
How the.. that's really strange the first one with the fan pinout
Seriously i have no idea how it could have happened.
could you please tell me which rework station you are using, is it big enough to do PC motherboards and do you recommend it? Thanks in advance.

Cheers man!
7:39 so the GPU is 2x 8 pin u only plug in 8 pin and 6 pin? The 2 empty pins are they "empty"?
8 pin connector is actually 2 pins. Ground and 12V.
👏👏. What motherboard do you use? These programs don't run on all motherboards
I have Gigabyte H81 and more options doesnt work
Asus h81m cheapest board I could find.
Also, be sure to book as UEFI or legacy if doesn't work. Some programs work only one way or another so manually ovveriding it may be the option for you.
Turn off secure boot and enable legacy boot in your Bios.
Damn I wish I found your channel sooner.
This is so cool.
Hey man love your channel!
I wonder what is the WD-40 for
not sure. maybe was just sitting on the desk
Anyone else notice at 3:40 the version of Ubuntu was from April 2010?
its for motherboard comparability, not for the GPU testing software.
Hi can you, can you give me advice on changing the memory on any gpu, problem is that when i replace a memory chip, in like 50% of the time same memory chip dies again after some time im use like one month, i think its the memory controler in gpu itself but is it that common to have bad mem controlers?
and how can i suspect a bed memory controler.
What is the temp for reflow?
Where to find the Tserver software?
Hi, can you make a video on how to flash a mining gpu into a fully gaming gpu
You dont need to flash it, you just need to open Nvidia control panel and select your mining GPU as a primary source for gaming.
mining gpus dont have video output but so this way image comes from onboard video while gpu power is from mining card.
thank you so much
how i can contact you sir
You can contact me on discord discord.gg/vJdEUCs6
Why wd40 on the bench?
why there are so many gtx 1070 broken ? i have gigabyte gtx 1070 g1 gaming bought it same year was released
For the same reason why there are more NVIDIA cards then AMD.
Simply because there are more of them.
can you give a link of your pre heater?
puhui t8280 on vevor or anywhere else
Hi, what bootable ISO are you using to teste the GPUs?
tserver
👍
on second card MSI RX580... will gpu work with that bad memory block removed only with less memory? or we need to solder another?
GPU will not work with one memory removed. It needs all of them
@@northwestrepair thank you sir for answer, but theoretically it is posibble to edit vbios to work without?
@@britkasablja007 No....
This isn't a VBIOS issues, its an architecture issue.
northridgefix in shambles
his strategy is different from mine, he cannot afford to spend time fixing anything for longer then 15 minutes. His business will hurt otherwise.
İt reversed on board plastic not in fan section
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
NIce job :)
Thanks! 😄
Subbed!
I literally used my 17 minutes to browse through the comnts just to see how people is upset with themselves ahahhahaahah
you provide nice information here , i hope you do the same with your next new videos
Giving advices to the viewers is not necessary, 99,9% of us do not know whats going on.
Too bad u are from USA if not u might able to save my 1080 ti
