How i learned GPU repairs

This is insane, I was certain you had a background in electronic engineering or computer engeneering, but you are self-taught! genius

I'm a medical doctor. The way you explain your thinking and approach diagnostics is not unlike what we are taught to do when diagnosing people. You're totally right - there's a meaningful difference between being 99% sure, 100% certain, and a 1000% right about complicated stuff. When lay people go to a doctor, they don't know what is wrong with them and trust the MD (and their reputation) to be dead certain about any conclusions they reach. The same applies to you - GPU microelectronics are complicated, and the majority of people will be lay people in this field. And therefore they trust you to be dead right on your conclusions. And you, Sir, do certainly deliver! Keep up the good work! Success lies ahead in your path!

I find your structured way of repairing hardware like listening to classical music. Structured, calming and surprisingly pleasant.

The fact that you do not give up and (as you mentioned) you ensure that everything is checked out is something not a lot of people consider doing. Keep up the awesome work, since, as I mentioned, your subscibers are increasing quite a bit! And I am pretty sure that not only for me, but for others also, the time you release a new video, it is a good time. The fact that you can understand anything like that is literally beyond me, how did you learn everything, did you go to a school or just messing around in forums?

This is like watching Louis Rossmann doing repairs on macs… Enjoyable to the max! I see this channel growing strong in the future. All the best from Serbia <3

Even if today's repair was unsuccessful, I am glad the current GPU price environment means good guys like you can earn a bit of money repairing damaged GPUs. Then the fact GPU manufacturers are robbing us blind at least has one positive side-effect.

Just recently started watching you, I thought you had at least 10+ years of experience. Only a few years you have been at this? You are extremely talented!

Loving the content . keep up the great work and im so glad your subs have grown so quick you deserve it!!!! Also after watching this vid I thought your job entailed fixing GPUs motherboards etc but if you learned this on your own time then wow im blown away!!

This is so calming, amazing, and inspiring. Thank you for what you do!

first time ever seeing content this great, keep up the fantastic work buddy! truely a gem to this world

Thank you for ur hard work although I have no idea about how ur fixing these video cards. But the fact that u explain everything about how the card is good at what and what design has problems about the heating really helps a lot! Please keep it up thank you! With out EVGA it's really hard to say what card to buy now everyone that u take apart seems to have flaws with their cooling.

I'm just a lowly software developer, so what you do is magic to me. Love your channel.

I'm glad to see someone as dedicated as you doing real diagnostics and repairs, it warms my old heart. Sure, this one had a dead core but I've seen you do some remarkable repairs in other videos.

I just realized how much information you provide to everyone to get into this. You are a genuinely awesome individual and I love watching your content. Thank you!!!

i love that u go for 100 % to the best of you capability's, keep looking and maybe finding something is how you learn. I scrapped stuff that i later found the solution to and it does feel bad knowing that u could have fixed the other stuff :D

I very appreciate your ethics! Thanks for your work and please continue to share videos like this

I like the lesson you are teaching us. I certainly should follow it. Maybe not at work, because i dont have the luxury of damaging something there, because its not mine (i work repairing things like wachingmaschines, dryers, microwaves, etc). But with my own things, i definitely should be more insisting and dont give up that easily. Everyone makes mistakes but im always terrified of making them. I have to get over it at some point if i want to get better. Btw. I love your videos, because they are so chill and i can just do my own thing and have one of your videos in the background and still learn from it at my own pace

I really appreciate your thoroughness. I'm a retired auto mechanic. I use to see techs write down that they had done a bevy of tests that led to a conclusion when they actually had not. As an example. An engine that is overheating. If it's a common occurrence on a certain engine to blow a head gasket, then that's what their diagnosis would be. Even if it was just a faulty thermostat, the thermostat will get changed when replacing the head gasket, or replacing the engine. So whatever the problem really was, was never actually diagnosed. I always did the full set of tests, no matter how sure I was of where the results would lead me. One time I asked a particularly crooked tech how he could live with himself. He said, "safe and sound knowing my kids and I have full belly's and a roof over our head". The service writers were happy to sell all the high ticket jobs he wrote up too, as their pay was based on the total amount of money they could sell each month. I simply cannot operate that way. I ended up leaving the dealerships and working for small independent shops where reputation was everything. That's how I was able to sleep at night.

Thanks for the full walk-through. I had the brain knowledge on this, but lack of hands-on. This helps me a lot.

My 1st gpu repair was on a GTX 745. replaced the fan and repasted the chip. Minor compared to grinding down the board and soldering micro circuitry into place. I come for the knowledge and hope it may help in the future
