I've tinkered with electronics repairs for a couple decades, but you make it all look very easy, much easier than it really is. Really enjoy your videos.

I really appreciate your videos. Very informative. I'm also am in the Discord which is awesome also! I don't chat much, but always appreciate the knowledge shared. Thanks again.

Thank you for all your hard work.

The 4090 FE cards use Honeywell PTM7950 on the core. It phase changes above 50°C. Looks like the owner left that on the core and only changed the pads to the wrong size. Due to PTM7950's phase changing nature, it looks dry like that until it heats up. It's designed for extended life while still being highly efficient with thermal transfer. I've used it in laptop paste replacements. It's pretty awesome from my tests.

I was hoping you'd use the pad roller to squish the pads out. Thanks for the video!

When you first described the problem, I said “pad thickness” out loud thanks to watching your other videos.

[Simpleman]

well... brilliant as always. keep up the good work :)

I repaired a 970 earlier that had too thin pads and they weren't pressing on the memory properly for heat transfer. After replacing the pads with 1mm. That was it. Problem fixed. No more memory errors. Thank you for the tool name

[andrey.]

also planned to replace pads and paste. this video will serve as the right guide to it. i didnt even realize that the pads could make such problems to GPU if the thinckness is wrong.

Great job Congratulations, I 'worked on integrated circuits and prepared them for soldering with a FREON machine now I'm 54 years old and I would gladly do the PC and GPU repairer if someone taught me

[stuartX]

I bought some of the black and red screwdrivers you use. They’re very good but I learnt that if alcohol is spilled on them the size markings drip off with the solvent.

I have an old bfg 8600 GTS which have experienced moisture, smoke and rust damaged due to a house fire nealy two years ago aand i took my time without soldering but mainly cleaning with ipa spray and a soft brass brush and cleaned every inch of it and it came back from the dead nothing seems out of place as it the second graphic card I ever bought as I have fond memories of playing games on it

[DesiredHeadshot]

It might be just me but I always enjoy watching a reflow.

[ronlevin]

Amount of attention that you make for each card is amazing. Most technicians will not even bother with corrosion, maximum very fact cleaning with IPA.

[fadedninna]

i love your vids sir, keep doing them please

Hey my stock evga 2070 super's gpu hot spot reaches 99c while playing certain games.
Basically just shooting my shot here, but a simple step by step gpu thermal re-paste tutorial for an evga card would be amazing coming from someone as skilled as you are.
No problem if it can't be done, i appreciate your videos !

[dano]

You are an old world craftsmen. Great video.

Glad I found this! My 4090 is water cooled but I'm thinking of going back to air cooling in an ITX build.
Did you replace all the pads with 1mm thick pads?
I don't have the originals any longer as I thought I'd stay with water cooling.
