There are a plethora of repairers on YT who do gfx card videos but none get the right mix of technical details, content length, visual indulgence and banter as you do. Others have attitudes and arrogance that just isn't here which makes the whole experience curiously enjoyable. And that you haven't done this for long on YT is exceptional. Keep it up!
It was very interesting watching my own fix, Card works like a charm and I learned alot from watching this. Would 1000% recommend this man, he's a beast. Thanks NWR.
Cool, thanks
next time i hope u will not open card buy yourself,its too expensive just too get 5 degrees.
@@wolfkane1986 I didnt send the card because of the temp, It didn't work... Maybe watch the whole video next time, and the price I paid wasn't stated. Compared to every other repair shop I checked the price of my repair was fair and reasonable.
someone went crazy on the thermal paste
Had a GTX 650 Ti from Gigabyte. Only lasted a few years of light use.
Really liking your attention to detail. And I appreciate that you diagnosed and fixed the card warping issue to normalize the temperatures. Outstanding!
Always a job well done and good learning in these vids keep up the great work .
Thanks 👍
The Thermal paste on the GPU looked like it was applied with hammer...
Since there was so much thermal paste when you opened it, I'd say a previous owner changed the pads and got the thickness wrong, not gigabyte. But... is the reason a previous owner would open a gigabyte card up to change pads is that the original gigabyte pads sucked, or were placed badly?
Some people think they can always do a better job than the factory. In very few cases, they are, but mostly, not.
@@reptilespantoso 😁🙉
It's uncommon, but sometimes, the manufacturer forgets to put the pads on the card. See some of the other videos on this channel. Even EVGA forgot one. I've seen it with one of my GPUs before when repasting, and it is hard to get the right thickness if you don't have calipers or shims and the manufacturer refuses to tell you (looking at you ASUS).
@@reptilespantoso that's why they made laptops easier to open up haha
these cards on release didn't have thermal pads or the ones that they came with were crap, the result was memory temps of 100c+. people took it upon themselves to put new pads/better quality in but where there's room for mistakes some people will make them. i personally own a 12g model of this card and it has no overheating issues as far as i can tell, 72c gpu core and 82c memory max under full sustained load
Great job. We need videos more often
Two today.
I was sick for a week.
Once my voice cleared, I was able to do voice over.
Can confirm, that thermal pad thickness matters. All it takes is just 0,5mm thicker pads than required and you may no longer be able to make the cooler touch the core.
Due to this, you may require various pad thickness for single GPU.
For example my 6600XT requires 1mm pads on VRAM, 1,5mm on VRM on the cooler side and 1,5mm VRAM, 3mm VRM on backplate side. When i tried to use 1,5mm on VRAM thinking the pressure will push it, the cooler was no longer touching the core. Also depends on pad consistency. Harder pads will have to be thinner, while softer pads can be thicker.
Always think ahead and buy more pads just to test, if there is contact everywhere, which will require multiple assemblies and disassemblies of the GPU. Just measuring the old pads can have various results due to stock pads often being different size, than those available on the market.
Gigabyte had top-notch cooling solution a few gens back. My GTX 970 G1 Gaming was an excellent GPU. I got it used, gamed on it for 2 years, did some bios modding (requirement, since Gigabyte tends to set their fans low rpms too high and the card was noisy in idle). I also disabled stock boost limit, baked in stock boost clock. As a result of this, the card real boost got unlocked and that GPU was boosting up to 1,49GHz, basically up to its voltage and power limits.
The card was still working, when i sold it.
I love your repair videos. If my GPU ever breaks I'm sending it to you for repair for sure.
So relaxing!! Love to you.
i like this videos so much
Short and sweet, thanks for the content
Learned and liked 👍
Could you maybe do a video where you explain some of the measurements and other things you do? It's fun watching you do them but i don't know what's happening xd
That's how I learned. Watch repair videos day and night.
As always a devil's in the details thank God you're a man of detail!
Thank you for sharing, keep it up 👍
Hey men I love this videos particularly this one , I had rtx3080 buts the name is eagle oc, the cooler size and shape looks the same at mine... My memory temps goes (80-90) Celsius degrees... Many people say it's normal...
(Sorry for my bad English!)
Yes,for gddr6x its normal
Awesome video
Another GPU brought back to life. Awesome job as always.
love the voltage rollcall ,bueller....bueller...bueller...
good work man
Nice thumbnail 😁. Who's that lady in it. !!
I Learn something new every episode 👍😎
Well + 15C betwen gpu and hotspot gpu not bad. Bud on the video was cleartly bad touch beetween gpu and cooler. You schould see xfx quick 210 rx 6600 xt. 20C in some cases 25C. Card not open or thermal paste in good condition. Changing thermal paste, did not change thermals that much, maybe 3C, sometime even one.
@Stephan yes. But for example on ASUS RX 6600XT i have as usuall + 15C. Hot spot 110C is too high. What brand card is that ? Biostar ?
I owned this card, luckily sold it half a year after its puchase.
I have the 12G version of this card and they seem to have address the issues the old 10G has. There is also thermal pads on the backplate the PCB doesn't bend anymore. Would like to know if it is possible to buy their 2x 8 Pin Connector since they're just a plug in.
thanks for the info!
Love your content bro
Holy thermal pads what the thunder. What a mess that was. Also really odd the way PCIe power is done there.
Good . Thanks
every non reference Gigashyte card I have purchased has had issues in only a couple years. The worst AIB IMHO.
Looks like the owner took a Dump on the die! 😂
hi , i have a little question , i have this card and i saw that gigabyte card are cracking , i would like to know if it's the case for this model , ty verry much !
Generally gigabyte cards qre using bad OEMs for thermal pads, I've had and seen other people with the same issue of leaky pads, during only 2 months of ownership and a full time job not using the computer, my thermal pads leaked pretty bad, cleaned up all the liquid oil/grease from the sweaty pads and replaced the pads with decent gelid thermal pads. I wasn't mining either, other videos have shown what mining on gigabyte cards do.
I have same card. Im surprised no one has manufactures these plugs for purchase instead of soldering id prefer new plugs all together. You know where i can find them
Was this aftermarket stuff or manufacturer applied paste & pads? Bothers me that the memory phase MOSFET isnt cooled and seems like an oversight by Gigabyte. How is the Gigabyte 4000 series stuff looking so far?
They made a mess of that card... The caps don't have thermal pads on them stock, whoever replaced the thermal pads originally put too many back on. The VRAM chips get 2mm thick pads, the power stages/MOSFETs/chokes get 1mm. I think putting pads on the caps could actually do more harm than good, I bet they run hotter with them on than off because without they don't make contact with the heatsink.
I found a used gigabyte gaming oc 10gb 3080 , he says it never exceeded 70C but Utube is filled with this card having heating & thermal pads problems 👀
How would you rank the various GPU brands in terms of reliability? Gonna upgrade in 2023, and I'd hate to buy an 80-class card only for it to die 3 years in or something.
RIP EVGA
Gigabyte is the Rolls-Royce of GFX cards.
How did solder stick to aluminum wire? 🤔
Thanks bro, anyhow may I know the thickness of thermal pads please😊
Measure
i wouldnt touch anything zotac or gigabyte make with a 10 foot pole in the gpu space, they are absolutely terrible to deal with if something goes wrong
Lol 10 foot pole
Hi, can you please let me know what GPU brand are you using and how are you feeling about them? I am slowly getting ready to get a new GPU and not gonna lie Gigabyte was one of my choices but seeing how it can be with them sometimes and with EVGA gone I am lost. I'm aiming for a AMD GPU but if u have Nvidia one I'm also interested.
Gigabyte had *some* good GPUs. Mostly terrible, ye. Their RX 5700XT is one of the best tbh in terms of thermals.
@@matejss15 well, if AMD ur looking for then the current gen RX 6000 from XFX is THE best. u can't go wrong with Sapphire, PowerColor, Asus Strix as well.
Nice
Memory temp of this card is 80c on test... On Asus Strix model 90+c with new pads (14.8W/mk)... So soon i will trying copper mode on memory
and make sure to get some extra money laying around for upcoming repair.
Copper shims need to be done very carefully. Otherwise you fry your card.
COPPER+CONDUCTIVE+ELECTRICITY=NOT GOOD
used to have a gigabyte 750ti. it was advertised as 4gb. figured out later that gigabyte essentially modded the graphics card to contain 4gb with no way of effectively using 4gb. felt scammed
Did you by chance make a note of the correct GPU pad thicknesses?
Did you byte off more giga than you can chew?
Look, I wouldn't presume to question your skills in this matter, but what you did to fix the broken off pin seems a bit potato to me. Surely that whole socket should have been replaced - maybe one from a donor card?
Hm, not too sure if "just soldering + duct taping the ground to the sense pin" is such a good fix, mean it works but would this mean any kind of other issues? As example only connecting one of the connectors and leaving the other unplugged?
no issues. look at the connector diagram. its grounded even on the diagram
what thermal pads thickness you installed? Id like to change mines gigabyte rtx 3070 gaming oc.
what is the overall opinion on gigabyte build quality? Seeing a lot of various gigabyte cards on the second hand market and wondering if it is worth getting.
Heavy. Causing PCB to crack. Very common issue with gigabyte that is also result of cheaper build PCB compared to EVGA.
EVGA 3090TI with HUGE and HEAVY heat sink will not crack but gigabyte 3070 ti with lighter heat sink will.
Zotak is even worse. Dont buy anything that heavy from zotak.
PCB can only be so thick, so material choice is critical.
@@northwestrepair Sto piangendo.....Ho comprato una Giga 3060 ti OC una settimana fa, mi deve arrivare, speriamo bene! Sei molto bravo. Saluti da Firenze Italia
Is there any GALAX in the line ?
The only thing I don't get what the difference is between the gpu temperature and hot spot, and how it is measured.
Hot spot should be roughly 10 degrees higher..that's all there is to know.
If it's hotter, something is not contacting properly.
@@northwestrepairdespite having no skills to repair something that complicated, I still like and watch your videos 🎉 I do have a xfx 6750xt and difference between hot spot and core temp is around 20 degrees and even greater when you try to overclock. My card is somewhat new and never opened. Would you recommend opening it and take look? I have mx4 paste on hand and maybe repasting would help?
all gigabyte fans are hard to disconnect
So what thermal thickness did you use in the end?
Probably a case of a melted power connector.
share part 1 link. Thanks
How to test amd card memory?
Can you make a video no basic repair
At least it's kinda better than the Asus ROG
Yes
I have a MSI 2080ti gaming x trio and I want to repad it. does anyone know the correct thickness for the pads before I take them off. I want to make sure i get the right sizes before i disassemble it. Thanks!
Either buy the cheapest thermal pads you can find but of all sizes (thickness) ranging from 0.5 mm up to 3 mm and compare them with the ones already installed on the graphics card, or buy a feeler gauge so you can measure the gap between the heatsink and the various components (memory, mosfets etc)!
A word of advice though: once you find the correct thickness don't cheap out on the thermal pads! Buy either thermal grizzly, alphacool, fujipoly or arctic (they are cheap but decent ones)!
Forget about thermalright, gelid and other generic made in china brands!
Igor's lab have done many tests regarding thermal conductivity of those chinese brands and you will be surprised if you check the results!
@@half101080 Oh yea, just wondering if anyone has ever repadded my card before so i don't have to guess and buy a bunch of stuff I'm not going to use.
How mutch must the hot spot be apart from the gpu ?
I think at the end he said 10 degrees was more like it..
@@OtherWorldExplorers wel on my 1660 ti from new ther temp is 13.5 over and thats from new
crusty! Mmmm!😶🌫
This was a non technical fix😉
I noticed all I ever see is nvidia cards the amd ones that good or am I just missing something?
So far only one person sent me AMD card for repair.
Not my fault
@@northwestrepair Your good buddy I was just curious lol I love these videos
Blame nVidia - not Gigabyte
nc
Ello
I DONT TRUST ANYTHING these guys build anymore
Why? Just get the card if you can get it cheap. Sure there might be some problems but it's always better than shitty PNY cards.
@@thatguy3000 I'm genuinely curious as to what's wrong with PNY cards?
Gigabyte is permanent No-no for me after every negative encounter with their products. And they're still at it I see...
Don't need someone telling me my 600+ dollar graphics card is trash unsubbed.
thinkness of pads ??
