Man, you have such a high success rate with faulty gpus. I know that if I ever have a gpu problem, I know where I am sending it. and it's not northridge fix lol
I keep telling everybody that has a GPU problem to go to you. I don’t get why so many people send their GPU to North Ridge Fix ( he states 100+ month somehow ) He has a 1-in 30? fix rate and charges a fee no matter what. I see too many cards he deems a no fix something you could do without an issue. If NRF doesn’t have a short on a basic component/cap that he can replace he just tells the customer the card is dead. No offense to him but he has no real clue fixing GPU’s imo. Just the basic’s of checking for a shorts and basic voltages. Some people are just clueless even though they watch his videos. He has skills just not GPU repair. I guess you can’t blame him. He charges what a $50 repair attempt fee for just take it apart. If people are stupid enough to send it to just loose it’s on them. We just need to get your name out there like his is. You have really grown as a channel so keep up the great work!
@@alext6933 - It’s a clever ploy which is suggesting to the customer ‘If you don’t want to pay $50 for the no fix repair attempt, I will retain your unfixable device which I can use for parts’ And as always with skilled trades, holes can be found which don’t exist due to the knowledge that the customer doesn’t have a clue - Mechanics, dentists and heating engineers are notorious for it.

I agree 100%. Alex is just not the right guy for GPU repairs. He is not a specialist in this type of repair. Although I do like Alex I think he is crossing the line a bit taking so big number of GPUs for repair. I wonder how many of those cards get repaired
@@alext6933 yup, that's what I thought. In that case we all have to support Tony's channel so that he is on the top list of YT search results. @northwestrepair you can count on us :)
RTX 50 series will be the first to have an official Underclock sku. At least it would if we weren't in the billionaire space race timeline. At least there will be plenty of repair work with all these mini hadron collider enthusiasts flashing the wrong bios to their cards in an attempt to overclock a ticking time bomb.
Tony only one thing I hate, when you say "who cares". WE CARE FOR YA'LL TONIKINS. And when yee fixx stuff it is simply great "your method". I have seen you be overzealous reballing the core. By that I mean sometimes it simply is as good as it can be already. Thanks for bringing lots of stuff destined for the landfill and you work your Merlin magic.
Tony, thank you for sharing a knowledge with us :) This was a great, interesting and entertaining repair. Top skills. The ending was hilarious. I owe you unlimited amount of likes. PS. I hope my GPU gets damaged one day to be in your hands
Lol that beep reminds me of how I was so nostalgic for it that I enabled the speaker beep in my motherboard bios and have a speaker connected to it just to hear the post code beep.
Ummm... I have a beeper ALWAYS connected to my MOBO, how are you supposed to know that your computer is working?!?!? ROG-Strix X470-i doesn't have one built-in and i would have been guessing TOO MUCH with out. Maybe tin-foil-thinking that they make "silent" mobos to make people dumber?
I have one of these, and it has the performance of a 3070ti. Had to flash it with a compatible Vega rom, then it performed as an actual 3080. It was used for mining eth back in the day; stock I could not get it above 80Mh, and after the evga it would rock between 98Mh and 101Mh.. as expected for a 3080.
hahahaha ending amazing :D I was reversing like 3 times confused about what is happening with the video is that 2 videos mixing? youtube bugging or what :D haha GG nice repair!
@@paugasolina5048 not all people have the knowledge and the ability to do the same job, buy rework station and lot of flux and thermal cam and ... Just to repair 200 bucks gpu, it doesnt worth it, especially micro soldering, when he show his skills, client trust him and send their gpu to the right guy As u see for northridgefix, a lot of gpu are waiting in the bench to be repaired, if new people learn how to fix it will be better... Than factory i guess lol
@@paugasolina5048nonsense. The repair community does not work with this mentality, the demand for competent technicians outpaces demand. You should check out the work Louis Rossmann is doing on this and his views, which are spot on. Tony is not obligated to teach anything, but anything he chooses not to probably has nothing to do with competition concerns but rather time and priority. Things like these different voltages are elementary compared to the secrets he reveals in these videos - hell he gave the practical order to check them, something probably learned by experience, and spoon fed them to us right in this very video, and reballs as if it were a simple oil level check. Dude is not concerned with competition...
:) :) :) :) What an amazing ending! :) :) :) Be careful with capacitors. I recently witnessed two healthy capacitors explode in another video, because of two left hands.. :) :) :)
I have an rx 6900xt dell oem and my bro was trying to change the thermal paste and he broke the 2 pin connector thats connect the fans with the card. He tryed soldering it but it did not work it shows light on the Radeon thing but no display.
Hey Tony, seeing as you're "not a specialist", please do a video on transient power spikes if you're able and set up for it. My brand new 4070ti appears to have given my brand new 650w PSU a knock to the extent that it (the PSU) won't power the PC under load any more. It started as a single hard reboot and has gotten progressively worse. It would be interesting to hear your comments on this phenomenon, and whether you have any tips and tricks for the average Joe. Thanks!
@@Unsocial200 I have an 850w 80+ gold PSU being delivered today - PCIe 5 ready with its own 12VHPWR connectors - I should be good I think. What concerns me now is the 650w is now giving 13.3v on the 12v rail so it's RMA time for it I reckon.
Hmm... 230 to 240+ W power draw in Furmark at 90% usage... is that a normal value for a 3070? Unless I'm looking at the wrong Palit Gaming 3070, this one should have the same 220W TDP as the reference 3070. Boost and VRAM clocks look almost exactly what they looked like under load on the GB 3070 Eagle OC I used to own (also a 220W TDP card), so maybe Furmark pushes the cards harder than other stress-tests/benchmarks? I noticed that on my current card, Furmark also seems to cause around 10 to 20W more power-draw than any other tests that I use.
@@northwestrepair Thanks! No idea how you find the time to repair all those cards, edit/upload all those vids *and* then respond to viewer comments, but I think this makes it mandatory for me to subscribe to the channel.. :)
hellonorthwestrepair i did like to ask you something, in my country georgia🇬🇪 that brand palit is so much popular and cost much less than like strix,msi,evga and other highend brand... and what you think about it? is palit good brand to buy fro long term? i want to buy 4070 from palit .
I have that model but RTX 3090. I am concerned about hotspot temperature. My gpu temperature is ok around 71-72c but hotspot are 104-105c. Should I be concerned?
It may be from the same brand, and use the same brand series name, but I definitely wouldn't call it the same "model", as the card in the video is just an RTX 3070, so the GPU and the cooling requirements are very different. Your model is very different, and much, much better.
Hey brother, I dig the channel. Was wondering what you think about electronics spray cleaner, like a crc or wd40 contact cleaner spray. I had a card with bad liquid metal contamination. So I hit the card with crc , I used an entire can, it cleaned off every spec. Pcb looked like is rolled right off the assembly line. Do you know if it causes issues or any down side? Well besides cost. Thank you, cheers...
power good is created by the chip when it produces correct voltage set by reference. enable usually comes from somewhere else except for phase controller. It generates its own enable signal. You can think of it as it enables it self but it allows external logic to disable it if something is not right.
@@thisoldminer It's also not bad, but just like other air-cooled gpu, you need to replace pads or paste quite often, depending on gaming or heavy mining.
Not when repair man blames mining for the issues. Takes apart a card, pull gpu die off main board and bench the card for a later video never to be seen again.
The ending of this video was better than factory.
Man, you have such a high success rate with faulty gpus. I know that if I ever have a gpu problem, I know where I am sending it. and it's not northridge fix lol
