Very generous doing a "no fix no fee" for the person who wasted your time with the fully functional V64.

I have learned something new today. Thank you for the video.

the rx470 miner edition its from the panda miner custom miners sell on their own page as you could see theres no real bios for it but you can edit it manually with some hex editor or bios editor making things short gigabyte bios are the mose commun to fit and the board its the same as the reference one, well if i can help i have some bios i use to fix the same problem on the same gpus from acustomer that had 10 of these cards

With the Vega 64, it might have been overheating and just needed repasting. Those reference models benefited from having washers put in between all of the pressure screws to give the GPU/HBM better contact.

I had constant overheating issues with my 2x MSI Vega 64 reference models (they'd turn on and then shut off the entire PC during boot) before taking GamersNexus' advice to add the washers to add more contact pressure. After that, I had no issues, and just applied a bit more aggressive fan curb to keep the GPU's nice and cool.

wow 2 cards were ok..im glad. which every gamer needs that..thank you for the vids northwestrepair

That transition from the benchmark to your workstation was very smooth. I was like ive never seen that part. Then the realization hit me ypu cut scenes.😂 Great job as usual. You are the graphics card whisperer!

[POLARTTYRTM]

Another excellent video sir. You are an inspiration to many people hoping to get into eletronics repair. Is there any chance you will mess with the mining card again for a second attempt at fixing it? Doesn't matter how many times I watch these videos, it's insane how you can solder things that small and precisely. My shaky hands would never allow anything close to that.

This channel is going to grow a lot more, mark my words!

[pasindutharusha]

Your videos are very infomative. Good luck !

[n_ku]

Please do a livestream once in a while. It will boost your channel, we'll see your thought process from beginning to end and you'll make a few bucks on the side.

nothing beats northwestrepair's video before going to bed. 😅

In the future, plug in an RX400, 500 series, Vega, 5000 series and use ATIflash to flash the bios. This is common for miners to flash the bios and undervolt to save power during mining. You don't need to de solder the bios chip. I have done it many times, and the utility is really easy to use. Hope that helps! Oh, almost forgot, a lot of those AMD bioses have an auto backup internally. If you short two of the pins while on, it will restore automatically the original bios. I bricked an RX470, and brought it back to life like that (no dip switches, I had to solder the wire to two pins on the bios). Also, I believe the HBM starts to strip from the substrait on those Vega cards over time. This will cause the no posts, which eventually leads to error code 43. I have a card that still works, and after plugging and unplugging the card several times, it will come back to life, and the HDMI will work again. BTW... I use to mine. haha :)

Three for one? You're spoiling us! 😁👍

Ok, I see ... that capacitor on the 580 looked to be on the first PCIE lane.

[DMLelektronik]

I flash the gpu card bios spi IC use CH341A but with a special technique because the diffrent rom and bin files, so I manually convert the rom file into bin file first which is adjusted to the capacity of the spi IC then finally it works good.

[Nohan_Aryang]

hello sir what are linux are you using, what function withe the linux for checking the GPU? thanks

[huddy]

Is nobody gonna say nothing about how that Vega 64 processor setup looks like a modern delidded 5950x cpu?

[golimonkey]

I would love it if you commented your thoughts on why memory fails.

[cysrandomthoughts]

Fun and informative videos to watch, i was wondering though about the tool that you have on the right, right beside the tooth brush ? a link maybe, coz watching your videos it seems like a versatile tool
