Everyone: WOW the repair is amazing etc. Me: No one even noticed the "Make Earth Flat Again" hat i spent most of the editing time on I have no hope for humanity anymore.
I saw that and laughed a bit
I guess the joke fell flat.
i saw i was too busy trying to make more versions of the hat and failing.
I was busy contracting a local company to make them
Saw it😅 but I was even more amused by the flux smile face 😂😂
You know theres an AI server somewhere watching your videos thinking "this human is valuable"
This is absolutely correct :D
LOL no the AI is thinking that human has the wrong number of fingers.
There's an AI somewhere thinking dirty thoughts while watching his videos.
No its thinking how can i recycle this and make money from plagiarizing his content...
@@scottstamm7022"Whoa... exposed contacts... kinky"
Not many people can say they have a hand-built 4090 - bravo dude
Now how about a wire wound 4090. Skip the PCB and wire wind everything! Now that would be next level...
@@blahorgaslisk7763the amount of latency a wire would have would make it perform like a 20 year old gpu
@@thelespauldude3283 Well the latency would depend on the length of the connection, not if it's a wire or a path on a PCB. Both use coper and wires cab be shorter than the path of a signal path on a PCB. Remember Cray? they were once the absolute super computer masters. Well some of their early computers were using wrapped wires between the components instead of a PCB with traces. This allowed them to design the computer in 3 Dimensions rather than 2 Dimensions as a PCB forces you too do. That way the data paths were shorter and they could run the system at higher frequencies. This is part of how they were able to provide more performance than their competitors. So wire wrapping or soldering the components is harder to do, but theoretically they could be faster. Cut hey, even if you were forced to run it slower it would be a very cool GPU. Just a PCI-e connector and a blob of wires and components. In fact Cray were also water cooling their supercomputers, but of course in their own interesting way. I'm not sure how the cooling of the components were done, but they didn't use a radiator to cool the water. Instead they made the cooler a decorative waterfall that was letting the water fall down a panel and end up in a little pool. Today you can buy similar waterfalls that can be mounted to a wall as a decoration. Again to make their computers more art than equipment they made the chassi look like a round bench. In the middle there were a tower with parts of the computer. The "bench" was even covered with cushions. A little of topic but for real, wire wrapping was something Cray used to be able to make the fastest supercomputers on earth back in time.
What? Anybody who practically had to rma their gpu has one of these. What are u talking about lol.
I can't even desolder popped capacitors properly and then there's this guy... mad respect.
you need more flux
At one point in his life neither could he
just give up because its not possible to learn, the internet contains 0 information
It's not as hard as people think. You need lots of flux, heat, & practice.
takes time to learn, how much have you been doing doing this for?
I get $150 for Xbox X and PS hdmi replacements. And I have gotten them down to a science. Can have them done under an hour thats fully disassembled and reassembled. This is baby work compared to what you just did. Some comments saying $400 and $500. I see $1000 to $1500 value easy. The skill needed to do that work without damaging further is world class alone. Re-balling chips.... Serious work there.
at those prices might as well buy a new gpu? lol
@@LCJammer correct.
@@LCJammer There is good damn reason why repairmen is not exactly popular occupation. Especially for this kind of work.
@@LCJammer would you tho? or instead send it to repair for half the price of the new 4090?
@@calceus2640 $1000-1500 is not half the price of a 4090. i can get a brand new 4090 for $1600. why should i take the risk of fixing a broken one that has no guarantee that it wont break again later.
the first successful brain transplant. in a gpu for now....
Now we need someone try to transplant the GPU into our brain so we can render our po..i mean games directly in our brains at 4K ultra settings.
@@UnimatrixKZhead
@@UnimatrixKZhead dude i used to have a broken GPU for such a long time (aphantasia)
@@UnimatrixKZhead I mean, we already have infinitely powerful specs inside ourselves. It's our imagination.
I think EVGA does this for their returns/warranties. Well, used to do this anyway or at least until their stock runs out.
The amount of work needed for this repair was insane 😱
I'd really like to know how much this cost. This was an insane amount of work indeed!
at least half of New Card's price for repair cost.
@@venerandarain3 an RTX 4090 is $2000 CAD. You say this repair cost $1000? I highly doubt it.
You forget the experience of doing these kinds of repair
@@timarc9895 time he wasted on that card and transfering all that stuf it make sense to cost that much
Imagine repairing a board someone's been using as a donor.
Watching your videos, is like watching a master paint a masterpiece, and so relaxing.
Thank you! Cheers!
Just like Bob Ross the painter
If a guy who send this for repair see this video , trow some bonus $$$ in there , this was insane repair.
at this point its not even his graphic card
Theseus's GPU?
@@ArminasGondolin Trigger's 4090.
Holy moly, that was super impressive! Hope you could take some well deserved rest after that mega fix!
Nope.
@@northwestrepair in Romania they say: rest through work
@@northwestrepair Awesome rescue, and video. How many hours would you estimate this transplant took?
👏
"But what I do have are a very particular set of skills, skills I have acquired over a very long career." You have skills I will never have. It is nice to watch a master at work...I bend a few pins on a motherboard and I just trash it and go get another one cause I have zero skills :(
The amount of knowledge and time put into this repair is mind blowing. Turning Coal into Diamonds.
Not gonna lie, I love your repairs but this video with all the hard work that included all that transplant from a dead card onto the other one which already has been a donor (stripped off of almost everything), plus the epic music made me cry. Of happiness man. Bless you, and all your hard work! You are an incredible electrical & IT engineer ! May you live long, healthy, and may you find all the peace and love and happiness that you deserve, my friend!
At that point seems almost easier to build 4090 from the scratch :).......Keep Up The Good Work!!!!
This is the kind of work that is done out of passion, as otherwise it would be economically unviable. It is clear that you are passionate about your work. Congratulations and continue
That's what I was thinking, insane amount of work needing some specialised equipment. Can't be cheap to do that much unless you really like doing it
Yes and no, its worth it just to cut down on e-waste alone.
You deserve a technical and skill award for successfully completing this procedure.
Best episode of law & order yet!
My mom thought I was a genius when I replaced a couple of caps in her flatscreen TV and got it working again. Then there's this guy.
wtf... this guy is a literal God. The "Make Earth Flat Again" hat was truly amazing, well done, Sir! hats off to you!
Proud to be among the first ones to see this. What an awesome repair. Thanks for posting!
Bro, you are a legend, literally resurrected it from the dead.
1000 dollar worth repairs we’ll done captain 🎉
Your work ethic, attention to detail, and just the amount you *care* about the work you do is fantastic. We need more peeps like you.
Wow that was an insane amount of work. I hope you got paid well for all that!
Same pay. Repair complexity and time it takes is not a factor. At least for now.
@@northwestrepair At least take 2x because 2 cards were involved.
I agree - I'd expect it to be cheaper for him to get a new 4090 than transfer the components onto a donor board (which itself was damaged). Feel for him a little , there's no warranty which would cover obvious impact damage like that .
@@northwestrepair$500+ as far as I'm concerned, it is better than paying $2000 for a used one on eBay of unknown origin and condition. Keep up the great work and entertaining videos 👍 Cheers 🍻
@enkur1972 A 4090, I hope he charged at least $400, no make that $500+ for this repair. It's a 4090, a used one on eBay is around $2000+. At least this one had been looking at, all temps checked, serviced and has a guarantee on the repair. A used one from eBay is, well, it could be being sold for a bad reason. No, paying at least $500 for this 4090 repair is definitely better than paying $2000 for a used one from eBay of unknown origin and condition 👍
This repair left me speechless...super impressive, keep up with those! You're my biggest motivation!
The repair cost was probably 90% of the price of a new GPU. This channel amazes me deeply, the level of skill is absurd.
This guy asks only 50 bucks for repair, chill out😂
@@x2stefan2701 no way
@@metal_mo that's what I remember from his discord
@@x2stefan2701 This guy is highly skilled technician, it's 50$ an hour, not fifty for a whole repair. get real kid. Still probably much less than 90% of a 2000$ GPU. If it's 500$ it's a bargain.
@@sirzebra 50$ an hour? Only if you pay in cash or in a low wage country.
Music is appropriately epic for this repair. Holy cow man, great work!
7:18 You missed an opportunity right there "the short is gone"
🤣🤣🤣from northbridgefix.... And from Sorin: "we have a picture! Can't believe!" 🤣🤣🤣
@@adaniel69 better than factory
Perfect, upload just before my sleep time
Same
perfect :)
Lol me with my insomnia
Very well done. I can't imagine the sick feeling of someone's 4090 shitting the bed and no longer working.
High-end GPUs usually comes with 3 to 5 years warranty. If the GPU stop working the user send it back to where he originally bought it and they should send him a new one.
@@iLeicha 2-3 years is standard for pc parts, high end or low end makes no difference. some manufacturers might offer an additional 1 year warranty on some products, but you're not getting a 5 year warranty from retailers unless you buy their extended warranty. they would go bankrupt if they did
Thinking of that BGA chips.. There's literally thousands of ways this repair could have gone wrong. But here you are, a true champion of rework. Even Louis Rossmann would salute to you, sir. At this stage, repair is probably way more fun than actually gaming on that 4090!
Damn this must be such a tedious task even for you. Btw, love how you separate two solder balls already joined together 😅
7:19 and the short is gone Magical!!
Just found your account. Holy crap this is the craziest repair I have ever seen on a PCB. I am an ET that only gets to replace component level items, so much respect for the rebuild. Had to of taken 20 hours easy, right? I would never even dare something so time consuming. If it didn't work I would of lost it.
None of his friends can recognize him anymore but he will live lol. Amazing work as usual!
I am speechless... Legendary repair🙌
I know a guy that wouldn't put that much work into a GPU.. respect to you, sir! Well done. Awesome repair and video!
Man, your work is incredible! “Number 5 is alive.”
I've done enough soldering work to know that takes skill and patience. Well done.
every time i watch a 4090 repair video im glad i bought a 7900xtx
Any GPU can break at some point. NVIDIA being the top of the star recently thanks to all melting connectors and some weird ass cables. I would rather solder them directly onto the PCB and not give a single F about the looks.
@@thisfeatureisbad That's how I fixed a grand son's 4090 after a melted connector that even had a safety clip to make sure the wire was secured. Works great now and been running that way for a long time now.
@@thisfeatureisbad Looks are useless in pc world to be honest. people dont even waste their time looking the hardware, they waste their time in the damn screen. i still dont get it with all this crap about looks lol
7900xtx is a nice card if your budget is tight
Amd lagged in all my games and has inferior drivers. Sad but true.
'What sorcery is this?' Great work from the Wizard once more.
The most extreme and amazing fix till now by far !! I'm shocked !
You should try to add a stopwatch just to show how much time you spend doing these repairs. This one looks like a full day job... Good one mate
That is pure surgery 😮 ❤❤ watching every single video on your channel and can tell that you do that with a lot of patience I know others who would say that's not economical nor practical 😂
Hats off to you sir. (Flat earth ones too). Amazing repair. Alex would have called it a no fix before taking the screws out. Well done!
Every video is fascinating to watch you repair. This was the best one yet! I can't imagine how time consuming it must be to setup video recording on such detailed and patient work like this. Great job!
im so impressed right now... knowing that someone can do this amount of work with such precise moves + knowledge... if im ur friend i would never buy new pc part again...
Hello Doctor... Good surgery as always! You're in different level.. Congrats.
your repairs are so fascinating to watch
I hope that the customer will appreciate your work and this card as well. you have incredible experience, great job, thanks for the video
That was ridiculous. Well done man. Best board repair / complete rebuild I have seen for a while.
Honestly very cool and very well done. Props to whoever sent that donor board.
I don't know if you saw that story from a while ago about some company in china basically buying 4090s just for the die and memory and they were making their own boards to convert them to be blower style AI cards, I wonder if the PCB and cooler came from somewhere like that after all they would have little reason to be careful with the original board.
Man, your work is incredible! You deserve a lot more subscribers that you have!
They are all going to the other grumpy guy. lol 🤣
You have the patience of a very patient person.
Man this guy has balls to deal with so many ball grid arrays! Fantastic work!
Tony you are the goat of GFX card repair nice job.
No words... about your skills ... impressive
Your videos are so amazing to the point of soothing. They never dissappoint. Keep up the great work and the amazing content.
Amazing repair describes this fix perfectly. Way beyond anything I expected from a repair attempt. Customer owes you some candy.
What i think about this repair ? I think you are the goat , that's what i think . Amazing work .
God damn, what a beast of a repair.
Is it weird I use your videos as a way to meditate. After a hard day's work I can genuinely use them to relax
This was extremely impressive work and world class attention to detail…and you even filmed the entire process. Hats off to you my friend. Truly amazing!
Thanks
I know nothing about fixing electronics, but I do like to watch this kind of video.
Knowledge + Experience + Precision god bless you 🙏
You're a surgeon bro, you do whatever the eff you want with those PCBs...impressive every time.
This was the most extreme micro precision soldering I have EVER seen. Mad respect bro! Crazy you resoldered a GPU.. WHAT!?
I think you're capable of designing your own GPU after watching this.
Aww man, ya'll beat me to the comment section.
I’m a continually impressed by your electrical engineering knowledge. Brilliant sir. I’m envious. Keep up the great videos!
Best repair I have seen in over 30 years
How does this level of effort and skill not cost someone more than a new 4090?
what about $2k or $1500. if ya live in right place thats a good weeks work
I imagine this must have taken quite a bit longer to repair due to filming, but it was fantastic to watch. The Transfer was just a phenomenal sequence. What a vibe.
Unbelievable work. 90% of stuff you do I have no idea but it looks amazing
i wish someday to reach your level of patience XD amazing and unbelivable job
Bro straight up love your content. Love what you do and how you do it brother!! Keep it up!! I watch anything you put out and believe you are beyond talented and your doing the gpu gods work out here my guy!!
Your patience and determination are indescribable.. amazing job.. keep up the good work..👍🏻
I'm always impressed how much time and afford you spent at this repairs well done
Amazing how far you take this repair... The amount of work and the risks that sketchy board could have... Impressive
I think this repair is just amazing! All jokes aside. Great job once again Tony.
Your experience allows you insight to many things . It shows in the video ! Well done
I didn't watch everything. BUT. Serious kudos to you having the patience to be able to do all of that. Mad props.
You are scary good. I was precision soldering certified by the Air Force, and you make me look like an amateur. Good job and video.
Thank you for your videos, very chill and logical. Helps me destress watching you work these puzzles.
anyone can work a job. You can"t do this as a job and not love what you"re doing. Not only is this extremely tedious, but great skill is required. great video!
This is my jam brother, hit the sweet spot on this one for me. Thank you
That some Jensen Huang level repair!
Dude that repair was insane! You have great skills!
thank you for shearing your journey with us man that was epic!!
Damn, Tony isn't fuckin around. I hope my 4090 FE stands the test of time. I've been very gentle and caring with it.
Awesome repair job ! very impressed, God Bless You !!
A true Labor of Love indeed. this isnt normal repair takes a passionate guy who loves what he is doing to pull this off.. kudos. and lucky client too.
I'm so impressed by your work sir! The amount of skill and knowhow it takes. It's fascinating to watch. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
That was really crazy insane work.. you are the best!!
How is something like this even possible this is insane. This guy is a different breed
YOU. ROCK! And you revived it on my birthday, too! Nice!
that was a wild ride lol, thanks for bringing us along
Dang that must of been the biggest repair I have seen on this channel so far with so many components having to be moved from one board to the replacement with a complete success with the GPU restored to full functionality, congrats a job well done, wondering how long it took you to-do this repair job since I can see it was a certainly pain staking process carefully removing all the need parts then implant then on the new board.
That "Ventus" joke was a nice touch. 😆 And excellent repair and editing job, as always.
