@@indang3r610 As current flows through a chip, it generates heat due to electrical resistance. As you increase power, the current rises, leading to greater energy losses in the form of heat. This heat must be dissipated to prevent damage to the chip,so this type of heat genarated by this way is diffrent. By design, these chips can withstand temperatures up to 500 degrees Celsius for a limited period, such as when exposed to a hot air gun during soldering or repair processes. Additionally, the circuit board must be made of heat-resistant materials to endure these high temperatures without degrading.

I once Had a Legion Y530 and gave it back last year. I just bought a Yoga S940 however it's got Intel UHD graphics, not even GTX.

Would love to swap for an RTX
There are high resolution, thin bezel laptops that have the stronger GPUs but will cost much more. Everthing is a balance between money and current technology

Send to shop for repair, he said I need to format. Format it and it doesn't fix it. Then I Google for solution and it might be because I never service the laptop. Do you think that's the cause?

It's definitely playable but I feel like it could be way better if I had like an actual GPU. I know that it's possible to get like an eGPU but I heard that doing it that way you are bottlenecking like 60% of the power of the GPU so it's kind of pointless to do.

@@PlasmaMan82 I understand that… but could it theoretically be done? :)
It was pretty interesting to watch.
Don't you have them problems with TDP (if the chips had it different) and driver issue?
Thanks for the video!
just replacing the old one its not different model
@@PlasmaMan82 ah... alright... If you remember after so many years, have there been any significant changes after replacing?
@@vladislavkaras491 this was long time ago that laptop is history now :)
@@PlasmaMan82 ah okay. Thank you, thank you. I don't know where do you live, so have either good morning, day or night! :D

thanks
Hello bro, can I ask you something? Is it better to replace the gpu with a new chip or just reflow it?
reflow is probably temp solution if it works
So can i replace a GT 540m with the same pins on the board as long as the GPU replacement has the same pins? And considering as an upgrade?... I am talking about dedicated graphics btw. Not integrated.. :)
video is not upgrade its just replacment of bad GPU and if you have same chip yes you can replace
I know there are external graphics cards could be connected to laptops (as using cable m.2 ngff -hdmi) using an external dock/adaptor.. i ask if there are External docks/adaptors for mobile graphics card?
hi, i havent seen but if you find something let me know :) thanks
temperature is around 340?
u dont place heat directly on middle chip but next to it
Can i just replace with better gpu which Has the same power consumption, as the old one?
How did the gpu stick to the motherboard? It did not need soldering?
yes soldering with hot air there is solders balls under the gpu
@@PlasmaMan82 Yeah, sorry I didn't know that there are small solder balls in flux XD
I feel like to the hardest thing to get is the will to do this, you could so easily brick the board.
where you buy that gpu chip? and i want to ask you something...
i cant find AMD-RADEON-HD-7450M chip for my laptop, then i found same chip but it from graphic card. so, can we replace chip from gpu card then replace the laptop gpu chip?
Use your old motherboard gpu
This video's great! If I don't care about the motherboard and just want to remove the chip do I need flux? :) Any help would be much appreciated
yes you need flux
Can i upgrade my acer Aspire V3-471g Nvidia Gt630M?
What gpu must i choose for it?
I was asking the same question but for my asus q534 did you ever find out
Can I upgrade my laptop's gpu like this ???
will it work just fine ???
Sorry this is not upgrade , it is just replacing the bad one.
can you post where you picked up the new cpu
Where did you buy a gpu chip for laptop from ..?
aliexpress
Definitely not for the average consumer
U need crazy skills to pull this off
just need tools ,will and patience :)
I have a question, I own a laptop HP pavilion gaming 15 dk0068wm that comes with GTX 1050, is it possible to upgrade it to a newer GPU ? the same laptop has other models that come with 1050TI for example, would it be possible to replace the 1050 with TI ?
that should be possible i think the diferences is just clock but teoreticly it will consume little more power if your powersupply allow that than i dont see the problem
@@PlasmaMan82 can we add vram module from existing like 4gb to 8gb vram using gtx 1650ti
I once Had a Legion Y530 and gave it back last year. I just bought a Yoga S940 however it's got Intel UHD graphics, not even GTX. Why is it that High Resolution,Thin bezel laptops have low GPU's, and Laptops with Low Resolution screens have major gpus. Is this because they have deals with Intel, or those laptops can't handle. Would love to swap for an RTX
Need decent cooling
There are high resolution, thin bezel laptops that have the stronger GPUs but will cost much more. Everthing is a balance between money and current technology
@@SamLoki That was a year ago. Haha. Ironically, since then, I've gotten a Razer book, wasn't enough for my liking{although, likable for balance}...Now, just two days ago, I got a Razer 15 Advanced 4kOled RTX3080 60hz. I must say, it feels nice knowing I don't have to edit any settings; or even wishful thinking such as what I wrote above.
How do the solder balls not stick together?
Hhah Hi, this is good question! The combination of surface tension, solder mask, flux, controlled reflow conditions, all work together to ensure that solder balls do not stick together during the soldering process.
Can you provide the link to purchase a gtx 1650ti graphics card?
Hi, note the GPU chip markings and search on aliexpress.
I have a question. Can I upgrade my gpu on my laptop.? I have dell inspiron n5110 with gt 525m nvidia.
there is no point !
if it's integrated you can't

I thought I could exchange my 940mx for a gtx 1050 ti mobile, because the chip of the two are very similar, would it be possible?
@@alanian4668 i want to change 1050 to 1060ti
hi, when you remove the gpu does it leave little holes behind where the pins of the new gpu can be inserted?
no its solder balls .
If the GPU different but match with it shape, can it work?
Hi, no ! you need same chip !
@@PlasmaMan82 ouch, bottleneck of my laptop is mor than 60% cause GPU
If i remove the broken nvidia gpu from it and just let it unreplaced a d operating with integrated gpu, does it works? Just wondering.
Bro can u say which oilment that flux name
toko co. amtech flux
is it possible to upgrade it to a more powerful one? i got a laptop with a dead nvidia gt220m and probably gonna replace it so would it be possible to upgrade it to something better?
My laptop didn't have any GPU with but but there is a place for GPU, Can I solder GPU in there will it work ?
Mishkat Tashdid that's something that i don't know i need to see that :) or try
What of you removed that chip and switched that PC without that GPU, would it automatically switch to Intel graphics?
Hi , this laptop was not dual GPU. But i assume in that case probably it will switch.
I have a question, Example: I have a Nvidia GeForce 9600M GT chip and i wanna replace with a GTX 760m ti, it will work?
if the laptop you bought had an option for 760m ti and the motherboard is the same for that version then maybe
Very instructive, thanks.
Bro, am having VAIO,, after 8yrs of using that now its switching on but display isn't showing,, I tried with external display still the same... Suddenly,, one day the display came back after many days of try it switching on,, but it's showed some about' graphic card drivers error'... I later installed the driver,, it's forced me to restart,, but after that same problem occurs.. But one of my friend told it maybe the GPU failure... Is that true ?? Pls reply.
GPU : RADEON 7650M 2GIG
சிறுத்த குட்டீஸ் it sounds like GPU maybe first try to rehot if that not help you need to replace GPU
@@PlasmaMan82 so you mean,, need to heat up the GPU ???
சிறுத்த குட்டீஸ் yes about 250 degre

Hi PLASMAMan. Is it possible to replace the Nvidia GT 525m gpu on my Dell XPS L502X laptop? The gpu crashes often, most often when its connected to an external moniter from HDMI. It somtimes will recover and give a "LiveKernelEvent
" type of message regarding the crash.
yes you can but first try rehot GPU maybe will fix the problem for some time
Can we change a laptops current gpu to any gpu chipset we want?
no

Does it have to set a particular way for it to install properly?
Hello PlasmaMan..I have Sony Vaio VPCCB35FN with AMD Radeon HD 6630M GPU..Can I upgrade the GPU?
Bonbon Kamz its pointless with any upgrade if its possible you need more power and usualy lap tops are disigned with calculated power consumption and minimal space inside and also cooling
you can just replace with same type if you have problem
Hello, please, could you Tell me If I can change my GPU of Dell Alienware?
Vinícius Oliveira Gomes da Silva sure !
@5:15 that satisfying sink in 😁
i live for that :D
Hello quick question. My laptop can't use the Nvidia graphics and can't update the driver. Tried everything TH-cam and Google tells to do, doesn't work. Send to shop for repair, he said I need to format. Format it and it doesn't fix it. Then I Google for solution and it might be because I never service the laptop. Do you think that's the cause? Will servicing my laptop will fix my graphics not functioning? Or the graphics is damaged for good?
is your laptop with dual GPU?

Hey quick question. I have a 2021 HP laptop and I wanted to know would it be possible to take a 30 series gpu from an old broken laptop and somehow put it into my HP? Currently I'm running on an i7 1165G7 and have Intel Iris Xe. This is a great laptop and I've only had it for about a year now but it's not so good when it comes to games like Fortnite for example. It's definitely playable but I feel like it could be way better if I had like an actual GPU. I know that it's possible to get like an eGPU but I heard that doing it that way you are bottlenecking like 60% of the power of the GPU so it's kind of pointless to do. Get back to me and let me know please, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks!
I dont think you can do that , better take external GPU with external monitor ,nowadays GPU are realy cheap
@@PlasmaMan82 Gpus are not cheap right now lol they're all above MSRP. Unless you're talking about like a 3060 or something then yea those are pretty fairly priced
@@MoneyGuil instead they are very cheap you can find 3080 or 3070ti for less than 500eu
@@PlasmaMan82 Where???? I'm in the US and can't find a 3080 for anything less than like $1000 unless used but even used it's still like $800 and a 3070ti is around that same price like $800-$850.
usualy on Ebay or Tradera
isnt it dangerous for something to explode like the capacitors or cmos battery?
battery should be removed and capacitors are SMD so they are designed for that temp. always need manual for board temp. specification
