Posted March 24, 2021 I made an account just to comment on this post. Why are people on forums so negative? try that repair. Seems super interesting and I'm curious. I have an old 780 ti that, i believe, has a bad vram chip. So if you're able to figure it out, it would be cool to know how you did it. Good Luck :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted March 24, 2021 so you think it broke from static how did you come to this conclusion? have you tried to put the card in a different computer and see if it works? what about a different slot in your computer?

I do really think that you are over estimating the tools, i did the same repair, broken module, RX470, just needed a hot air station, a template and some solder paste + flux. It's been doing great since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted October 15, 2021 There certainly are shops that can do this kind of work, and for less money than a new card. It is DIFFICULT and should not be attempted by even a "soldering expert" who does not have BGA experience (if the thought of BGA work concerns someone, they're not experienced enough) There is a guy on the internet who posts as northridgefix. I have seen many "impossible" repairs in his videos... and I've seen some inconclusive or unsuccessful stuff too, but at least he's honest. You'll just have to do some searching or long distance mailing depending on where you are in the country. I've even searched for someone willing to put faster memory modules on a card once, but in the end... it wasn't broken, so why risk it? But you're in a different situation... it's broke, so why not try? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
