The part where you're a little confused by the hdmi cable not going in made me laugh a little. That was literally the reason they sent in the card.
me too me too XD
I think it's just that he anticipated the possibility that bending the connector had broken circuits, which isn't unreasonable since that applies to so many of his repairs. All the same he worked through it.
arrogance make you dumb sometimes, thats what happened.
@@CharithaCn but it also helps, arrogance is a virtue of intelligent
the hdmi connector damage didn't look like a big deal....until it was...i hate it when i underestimate the power of a tenth of a millimeter....
I can't believe it works that way, re the holding hands part. Neat.
this guy is good at what he does. he sells you the products he uses... so when you can't fix it.. you send it in to him and he shows you how it's done.
I need to get hot air tweezers,anti glare light and will have everything from Alex.Great job on the repair Alex.
thank you for the flux tip. really great. thank you
Hey Alex. Put out more videos and don't worry about the editing so much. What you do for a living is driving for perfection married by what you do by way of TH-cam. I am a new viewer and have subscribed and absolutely love the technical stuff but equally your dry sense of humor analogies sub Psychology by way of customers, you are a true Entertainer by weigh of what you do and who you are.
I want Alex saying "solid" to be my text message alert. 🤣 Nice work as usual.
I love the way you solder the leg of connector. ❤️
really nice.
I thought this would turn out to be a no-fix, but i'm glad it's working.
Love your patience and sense of humor...........
another great vid,,,, mid morning here in the uk and excuse to watch and have a cuppa tea,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, thanks for taking the time to post
Please bring back the end music..... It's so satisfying to listen.
Anti-glare light ON , does that mean i can switch my RTX OFF ? 😎 You're saving tonnes of tech which otherwise would have landed on the e-waste pile! Green kudos for you! 😃
21:50 jajaj , relax , tranquilo. greetings from Argentina
How do you know what amperage rating the replacement fuse is?
I love how you show that experience beats best practice!
I always love watching a successful repair! Great job as always, sir. Well done.
Amazing Alex, you put us in the picture mate.
Thanks for these videos. I love troubleshooting and fixing things myself.
this is a brilliant example how NOT listening to the customer is sometimes a good thing. If you went by there word you would of replaced the connector and it still wouldnt have worked. They would never of guessed about the blown fuses. Also he could of took this to other places who possibly woudl just change it charged him and said well i did what you asked even though it didnt work when returned. well done sir
Way to go above and beyond!
We can replace the fuse! Bravo! I learnt lesson early not to have electrical equipment switched on whilst plugging HDMI cables in & out. ALWAYS turn equipment off - don’t be lazy arses else you’ll pay! But you can now replace the fuse!
What I like most about this is learning what brands NOT to buy.
A cheap shop would have bent that connector back in shape and forced the cable in it. You did a better than factory job, very impressive.
You are a pro and sometimes even an artist....
That was my personal card, I would have straightened out that port with a pair of strong tweezers, or small needle nose pliers. Didn't really look to awfully out of wack. I've straighten worse things out with success.
Sometimes I think you are a disguised wizard - because all your work is magic! 🧙♂👍
The shiniest thing I have ever seen after gold n silver is my daughter this time I have not agreed with you Alex. I learnt a laughter after a successful repair now I’m going to rehearse the yessssss when the job is done. Great job though
Alex amazing diagnose in a few minutes and solved fast and clean !! my respect !!
Alex!!!!any thoughts about replacement fuse ratings...the markings were different....
Awesome...
At end of video successful job I feel happy for you...
Its nice to see happiness on your face...
Yes yes we done it.... Mostly on video card jobs...
Love from India...
Keep it up..
don't you need to check if you can fit a displaycable into those displayports? since the bend ports were the reason it was sent in?
I bet big boss tested that when reassembling.
Is it only me or were the DisplayPorts also bend and needed to be replaced?
And you don't have to test them just put a cable in it to check if it fits.
exactly my thoughts as well.
this fix involved major issue , minor issue
major issue the gpu is working
minor issue the display ports
I never dealt with displayports so I don't know, there seem to be great uses for them, I heard they have a hub & you can display 3 monitors on a single line/port
Also the customer could be using multiple displays with the card. As it stands only one HDMIU port appears to be functional.
it's only you
Yes I would be pissed if i sendt it in then got it back without the ports beeing changed
I wonder how much time you would save by having a simple app where you scan a QR code stuck to the donor board and it tells you how many of each component you have on that board, if you use something you just click to minus 1. But I guess it would either take time to count at the start or require the schematics for the donor boards to know what is on it.
. . . There is usually an issue prompting client to yutz around with set . . .
Why the music and business address was removed from the end of the video? That was kind of a signature of the channel
Thanks for sharing your knowledge Alex! Could you please make more video's on the business side of things? I also have a computer repair business in the Netherlands, and I learn alot from your videos!
Und schon wieder einen tollen Job gemacht !
Thank you please more vga repair. What about cod 38 no boot and 3 beeps
Do fuses have a reference number showing, or do you have to measure to confirm the amps?
I think so. Theres a book with those tiny things . I wonder if there's a grab bag with bunch of them.
When fuses are at work they are always in emergency mode and always very delicate and simple vibration breaks the thin wire inside them that’s probably why they failed when there was nothing shorting it makes sense to me they failed when current is going through them and the bang on the ground broke the connection in them.
Do those fuses have 'thin wire' inside them?
Nice work Alex , you amaze me with your patience ,working on these sometimes aggravating video cards ! one of the reasons I enjoy your channel!
Thank for the content man ur videos have sparked an interest i didn't know I had will be ordering all I need to learn how to do the work you do
Ofcourse TRANQUILO todo es posible 😎
Awesome, love watching your work, 👍
Good work Alex
Spread the love hold hands
Bala Frome india...your videos and your works all good.. thank you sir
Nice job 👍
Cool technique replacing the fuse, I'm damn sure the same would work doing the same on LED lighting boards.
A fuse is a fuse but are the values the same ?
I still don't get why the fuses blew. It was not plugged in when it got dropped or was it?
I love the long videos 💪
still amazing after all gpu card repair videos ive seen. i hope my cards only has fuse problem.
Hello good Job! Regards from Germany 🇩🇪
You are a Master 👌🏼
would you recomend to buy that video card in these days?? i have a great offer to buy one just like it
How are you sure that it was a 10 amp fuse ? Thanks !
Should be 3 power plugs I see only 2?
Does the HDMI connector determine or play a role in the HDMI version?
Art 👌💛
Came in for repair.
My 3080ti fans went super sonic then shutoff the whole pc an refuses to boot. Need to send it I'm since still under warranty. I hope it gets covered. I cannot afford a new card an its stressing me out. My luck.
did linus send it to you?
If i lived in LA i would love to work in your shop i can learn a lot more than i already know
is the customer using HDMI port or DisplayPort?
Hi Alex do You know where can i get the boardview or squematics for grafic cards?
How does one obtain a donor card?
how can a fuse blow when the card isn't in the pc and has no power ? I mean it wasn't physically damaged itself
Shock? ..I don't know, just guessing
Also, cap power. Capacitors can store a difference in potential and, because they are designed to release that charge all at once, caps can easily blow fuses if there's a temporary short.
Static electricity
happy ! thx ya zalami
Awesome ✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻
Good thing about Cali is your containership gets there first 😂😂
Dude where do we get schematics for video cards?
You could have used a DP to HDMI convertor instead of replacing the HDMI connector
Awesome repair
Correct me if I am wrong.
3090 was launched on September 2020.
EVGA offers 3 years of warranty. Therefore, why not sending this with RMA to EVGA? 99% of the times, it would have been repaired for free. Unless there is water damage or evidence of burning, they always replace or repair for free.
Don't you know your rights as a customer?
Legend.
this surely got shocked or something. the owner might not be telling the whole truth...
Seems like now we have fuse blown season on 🤫
I have a nvme ssd. Can I upgrade hp probook 6470b with it? Are there enclosure adapters that can do this job?
No you can not. You may be able to get a case and make it an external hard drive but you will not be able to get the speeds that it is capable of. The connections are far too old.
Nice video
Just a tiny bit of hot air goes a long way :D
Advise against using shitty gigabyte doner cards for an EVGA ^_^ Gigabyte are well known for using cheap components. Love the vids BTW, excellent work.
Is worth it these days to buy a used rtx 3090 24 gb ?
Bet ya the customer complained about the extra charge cause Alex went beyound to make it work replacing the fuses too not having too. Saving the the customer to pay to ship it back to get the whole job done.
He was paid to fix the card. He has said many times he gets paid the same no matter how long it takes.
You are my inspiration 🥰🥰🥰
🥰🥰🥰 Dear
Sorry, but what do you mean by "the power cable got snatched"? Do you mean "snagged"? Thanks
No I mean snatched and not snagged. dictionary.cambridge.org/us/dictionary/english/snatched
@@NorthridgeFix So you meant it was pulled out or pushed in very roughly or with little care. Thank you for clarifying.
do you sell the soldering tweezers? i couldnt find them on the site??
what might be the repair charge for a fix like this?
Atleast $150 to look
Awesome
for gpu's you sholud use an heat bed.
Will you consider PayPal as a payment option on you site?
Alex explained in a previous video that he stopped using Paypal due to scams. One example he gave was a customer reporting him for combining two orders into one shipment. Customer reported only receiving one package. In the end, Paypal sided with customer and Alex had to eat the cost the cost of the larger order.
Teşekkürler emeğinize sağlık
Nice
Hey, man, I'm pretty new to this and I have a question. I have this ASUS Strix 1070ti that I bought for £81 not knowing it's faulty, and it isn't detected at all and has a black screen. My question is, what is most likely the issue and is it possible to send it to you all the way from Luton (UK)? Thanks :)
did you get it fixed? I would try finding a local repair shop first. The repair would 100% be more then what you paid for the card if you sent it to this guy.
@@NonLegitNation2 no i didnt :( the pcb is laying on a drawer with no hope of fixing, and I'm just using an RX 570 8gb. I have no clue what to do. I live in the UK so it's even more difficult.
@@agsechogd6406 I would definitely look for a local shop. I only say that because last weekend I ended up breaking my RTX 3080, I took it to a local repair shop and he fixed it for $60USD, but then I also contacted Northridge Fix and he quoted me $300 and then an additional $98 if I wanted it worked on in 1-9 days.
Better than factory. wow.
This pcb sucked. I murdered 2. After blowing fuses I bridged them and put the 1000w bios.
I’m going to hyperprostulate it’s the up9511 voltage controllers fault.
👍👍😘😘
U spread the flux then the love
There are DP -> HDMI adapters.
