I might be too old, but back in the days, graphic cards had free slots/sockets for memory upgrades. You could upgrade its ram as easy as you could upgrade the system's ram.
I remember reading or hearing somewhere that they stopped doing that because of the speed that VRAM needs to have in order to load assets and stuff fast. It supposedly is a much faster processor and needs higher speed to function properly. My opinion? Yeah, it would be awesome if we could add VRAM by switching sticks or something.

@@iitzfizzfalse, it's not only a vram difference between the 8 and 16gb. Texture rate and tmu is less on the 8gb than 16gb that's why there's a performance difference
@@vedob5163 I use it for stable diffusion image generation stuff, sometimes require a lot of vram to do certain things. The 2080ti is a very good card for it in terms of price/performance. And it undervolts very well, I'm running it at 150w. It as fast as a 4070 in terms of fp16 performance. You can do 16gb on a 3070 as well, slightly slower for SD work.
Very impressive! My question is: How did you know what to do ? From where? Could you tell more about "straps" ? What are they? For what? What are they doing? What exactly did you set to high. You are VERY VERY underrated. To change the chips is easy for you and all people who have to do with those kind of repairs but your knowlegde is much more interesting to me. In any case more knowledge than I have 🙂
All information about straps is available in the schematic of the GPU. It also mentions how the configuration should be. For example 1 stands for high and 0 stands for low and M strands for medium. 1 connects 100k resistor to 1.8v, for 0 the resistor is connected to ground. As you play around you will get the hang of it. Start reading schematics it's fun. It gives a lot of insights.
@@GraphicsCardRepairs-tk7ql Thank you! I would never had thought that I would have to read the GPU schematics for a VRAM replacement :-) Even for more VRAM. I thought it would be a firmware thing :-) Thank you!
I think I have the same questions like you 😉😅. I have here one Radeon VII who quit service some years ago. The only thing I have done at this time, is to install a new driver. I always uninstall the older version, before. I had asked the official support from AMD here in Germany, and they were very interested in that. They told me I should send this card to the service. I think I'll use this option for the first time. And when they say they cannot make anything, or repair, then I'll ask this technician. He's absolutely amazing. Such detailed knowledge, I wonder 🧐🤔 where he did got this learned.
BGA work isn't really that difficult if you have a general idea of what you're supposed to do and not do. My first foray into modding GPU's was upgrading my 750 Ti 2gb to 4gb. It was surprisingly easy.
Thank you for applying the thermal paste properly, man. I've seen so many videos of people maintaining or repairing graphics cards, and they don't spread the paste, meaning that parts of the silicon are at risk of not getting cooled properly. Spread paste if on bare core/silicon/diffusion barrier. Use whatever method you want if it's on a IHS.
@@GraphicsCardRepairs-tk7ql don't worry, I am. I use two coats of liquid electrical tape on SMCs before I spread it on a die. IHS application is easier.
AMAZING It will be ideal if you can post. 1. How much the upgraded RAM chips cost 2. How much for your work 3. What was the intention and EXPECTATIONS from the person who commissioned the work (game, video edit, blockchain or AI) 4. Did the person actually got the performance expected? more performance?, less performance? , what metrics were they using?
The cost of upgrading this 2080Ti including the memory is $220. This user wanted this upgrade for AI. The last conversation with the user was he was able to utilise the memory to run larger data sets. Since this was my first upgrade video I did not expect much interest. Mine is a small repair channel. I will include benchmarks and other stuff in my future videos.
@@GraphicsCardRepairs-tk7ql 220 bucks for all the work and the memory chips? Bro that's insanely cheap. Especially if you count all the hours of work and equipment you are using. I have swapped a single memory module once. And it was not easy.even with the right equipment. Hats off to you sir! Keep up the great job. But I am still curious how you managed to get the schematics of the 2080Ti strix. I'm also very interested in those
@@GraphicsCardRepairs-tk7qlI think this could be a hugely popular service especially for newer generation cards with the newer tensor cores. A 3080TI or 3090 with 40gb+ would be a game changer for AI models, and could easily be worth the cost being $1000+
Someday, I will be able to afford a PC again. Breaking ones neck and all really does hamper life. Nevertheless, I wanted to say thank you. It's wonderful to see all the work and efforts. To learn from you. I really appreciate you.
@Tekilafiend33 Thanks, mydude... this neck brace sucks... and my arm is stuck to my chest, but... I can game still, kinda. It's likely why I'm having a hard time. But I can still walk and everything. So, I really can't cry about it. Broken clavicle is healing well, too. So... and... insurance coverage is finally going to pay out my GPU, only I won't be able to M&K.

First time on your channel... What a wonderful upgrade... I used to fix the motherboard using a hair dryer long ago not anymore 😂😂😂.... Watching you I was in a zone.. wow ... Keep uploading such wonderful videos...
Yes for gaming it does not make sense. There is no performance increase. Only games that exceed the 11GB buffer can benefit. In my opinion a handful of games. Unless you have a requirement for AI of something. 😁
damn that is a really is a great idea I would like to see a fallow up with the customer to see if the GPU is still stable over a long period of time other then that an amazing video. You said you would look at other GPU to do as well if you would be so kind as to upgrade an older card like a 1080 or 1660 just so we all know it can be done. your doing amazing work keep it up!
Thank you 😁. The user of this GPU has commented on this video. 1080 already uses the highest possible memory compatible with it GDDR5X. There is no upgrade path ahead. 1660 is barely able to exceed its current memory buffer. GPUs like 30 series can benefit from this upgrade.
@@GraphicsCardRepairs-tk7ql thank you for replying to my comment I see where your going with the memory for the 1660 I kind of figured and its good to know that the mod is still working as it should great video
The most relaxing video ever. I woulda thought tight smd work reflowing tiny part that want to swim away would be anxiety-inducing... but no, you got it covered :)
one reason to have more vram on an older card is so that you can do 3D animation rendering with it. GPU based 3D rendering requires you to load the model into VRAM for each card so the amount of VRAM becomes a limit to the complexity of scene that you can render. more VRAM equals more complex scenes. You can also use multiple cards and split which cell they render to improve render times but you cannot stack VRAM so having more VRAM is very helpful. keep up the good work.
hell yeah dude these are the people we need who can keep old tech in service just because it doesn't have enough memory doesn't mean it can't keep up with modern games.
for some reason, I find your videos relaxing. Maybe because of the background music. I sub right away. Now I know that GPU memory can be upgraded. I always thought that its a done deal and cannot be upgraded. More subs to your channel!
If I was a betting man I'd put money on the cut down die being fused off, regardless if the entire core was functional or not. It's also possible that the GPU is hard coded and it would just refuse to run but it'd be an interesting experiment. I just don't see Nvidia allowing this to happen but I'm surprised even the denser modules works on the same bios so who knows.
AMAZING. And I am only 10 minutes in. I wish I knew how to do this stuff. I wish I had the brain capacity to even learn just a little of what you know. I get very nervous just pulling the stock cooling off and adding waterblocks the few times that I have done it. This is next level! I actually have 2 2080ti Asus Strix just laying around not doing anything anymore as I have already moved up to 3090's and now a 4090 since. I wonder if they are still worth anything. Maybe a PC for my grandkids. Great video you are a master!
@@meade916 It is truly ridiculous that SLI has been abandoned. There is literally no legitimate reason except apathy. After I built my first gaming PC in 2008 I bought a second GTX 260 and used SLI until I upgraded to a GTX 570. I never attemped SLI again simply because there were so few games that benefited from it, and often if it worked, the gain was only 60% or less. SLI works --- it's just that nobody cared enough to properly code for it.
you have that heating mat in phone mode. It only heats the center of the pad. If you hold down the M button, it goes into tablet mode and heats the whole pad and also heats up faster.
Wow! Great technological wizardry/necromancy. Its always awesome to see these kind of technical upgrades that go level beyond overclocking. Re: your question, I think for a 2080ti, 11gb is more than enough. 2070S 8gb runs pretty much every game now within reason, but if the user wants to do this, its probably for some kind of vram intensive work like 4k editing or something. Idk. Theres use cases beyond mining and AI that doesnt really need raw gpu power.
I'm using an Infrared Cooker Plate (for cooking) and it's very good even for doing a GPU reball. I wanted to buy a Puhui T8280 but I saw a video of a russian dude doing GPU reball with a IR cooking plate and I tried to do it myself. It's very efficient for GPUs but not good with big PCB boards like ATX Motherboards because those need a big heating surface (the board flexes / wrap so bad when the temperature is not uniform on the whole board).
T8280 has slow cool down and uniform heating. The cooking plate do not have these features. It will popcorn your pcb. You will also need a 600w or higher hot air station, preferably Atten ST-862D.
I remember the days using ceramic plates and I killed a lot of cores. Luckily they were mine so I have no regrets. But I learned a lot. Since then I moved to a 3 zone rework station and never looked back.
@@NaN_INF it's safe with GPU PCB boards when you know how to use it. I've replaced a lot of Cores with it and I can say I have no problem anymore right know. Of course I've toasted a lot of cores before mastering it but knowledge requires experience so I'm okay today. But my goal is not the Puhui T8280 but at least an IR 6000 or higher.
Yes i agree. I still have my old modified gortak preheater with an external controller. Now a days its on the shelf retired. May be i will find some use of it again some day. I'm sure it still has its use case and the best suited when the 3 zone is too large for a job. I will make a video on it someday 😁.
It's hard to say if it's worth it for gaming, ie, 12GB is close to recommended 16GB min, but I do remember a Hardware Unboxed vid where extra memory allowed the textures to full form, ie, not enough memory and they are rough blob renders. They even showed a GPU render properly when started, but after 20min it ran out of memory and the pic became worse. Basically it's the cost, like is the $300 swap ok for a 10% better appearance in games.
Thank you for sharing 😁. An upgrade like this for gaming will hardly make any difference except for those AAA games which require a bigger buffer to load textures. Unless you have specific needs for higher memory this upgrade will make little to no difference. You guys using higher memory GPUs are the best source to tell the community if it's worth it. Happy to have you onboard.
I have not used VR. If you have used it then you are better equipped to answer this question and it will deffinitly help the community. Thank you for sharing 😁.
It should work but the firmware limits the maximum frequency and there's no practical way around this. Basically it'd let you overclock the memory as much as possible without any concern but stock chips can all typically handle a decent speed bump already so you really wouldn't get enough out of it to be worthwhile.
@@JJFX- more than just firmware (it can be modified) but also the core's imc must also be able to run at higher speeds to remain stable. At least as far as i know, unless you are able to change gearing or straps to allow different dividers / timing.
Well the capacity has increased but not the bandwidth or the bus width. Games with high VRAM usages will benefit from it to load textures but how this will impact frames is yet untested.
I have been tempted to do the same. But BM-HC14 and BM-HC16 are expensive chips, being 2GB. Maybe if I come across some extra chips I wouldn't mind using on my 2080Ti I will. But I never get the chance. Fun video man! Good music btw!
I am planning a similar upgrade on a 3060ti. What do you think? I have HC-16 memory which I would want to try. I'm wondering how this upgrade would stack this GPU against a 4060 ti
@@GraphicsCardRepairs-tk7ql Why not go with D8BGX GDDR6X (the 21Gb version)? As you know, there are 3060Ti's in the wild with GDDR6X, like the one I have here waiting to be picked up. However, given that 448.0 GB/s on the GDDR6 HC-14 (14 Gbps) vs 608.3 GB/s on GDDR6X (19 Gbps) version makes almost 0 difference in terms of performance, I highly doubt going from HC-14 to HC-16 would make sense. But going to GDDR6X with higher speeds might make a difference. The only way to find out is to actually try it :) Though I do not know if even with the GDDR6X BIOS, the card will run at the higher speeds and actually run the card at 21Gbps on D8BGX GDDR6X 😕
The GDDR6X 3060Ti trace connection on the PCB are different. GDDR6X will not work work on GRRD6 PCB. pin out layout is different. Data pins layout is not the same.
@@GraphicsCardRepairs-tk7ql Ah I did not know that! Since I use the same stencil for re-balling GDDR6 and GDDR6X. But the ball pinout having a different data layout is a deal breaker! But regarding your original idea, I think it would be a waste of VRAM, since GDDR6X has already been proven to make no performance difference against the Samsung HC14 chips, let alone HC16 which is still slower than GDDR6X D8BGW at 19Gbps. And HC16 is so expensive for me, I'm careful with it LOL
Wow the driver is just fine with a 22GB 2080Ti? I always heard these memory upgrades (like the 3070 16GB upgrade) resulted in a slightly confused/angry driver. A 22GB 2080Ti is probably a great choice for Stable Diffusion etc. I know 3090 24GB cards are highly prized by people running these applications and can be quite expensive/hard to find despite being quite old now. A 2080Ti with a 22GB upgrade might be quite appealing, I know the price of 2080 cards has fallen quite a lot and is maybe only 20-30% slower than a 3090 in these applications.
@@GraphicsCardRepairs-tk7ql Very cool, definitely a worthwhile upgrade. I calculate theoretical FP16 performance to be 25% less than 3090 so maybe worth it, how much would you charge for an upgrade like this?
@@GraphicsCardRepairs-tk7ql Wow! Just $75 ? In Germany you wouldn´t be able to do that work for such a price. Our government steal more than the half of our money. They call it tax. Otherwise I would offer it too - and much more 😕
I would to have this done to a 3080, to go from 10GB to 20GB of VRAM. That would make a real 4K high settings gaming GPU out of one that never had enough VRAM from new. I have nothing close to the knowledge or skill to pull this off.
I hope you like this video 😁. Yes, you will require skills to replace memory. but skill is built over time with practice. If you start to practice (starting with dead boards) you will build the required skill over time.
Just wow, your skill is amazing. I am stuned and in awe. The YT algorythm made a great recommendation too. I rarely do subscribe but you need to be seen and heard of. Now the toughts. Yes games are not gona even touch all the memory but Mining, ohh boy with all that fast memory etherium based algorythms gona love it. AI, rendering, folding, modeling, moding is going to be great. After all just the that flex on unlocking the full potential of a GPU is worth seeing.
Unfortunately none of the 40 series can be upgraded. It already uses 2GB memory modules which is the highest capacity produced on GDDR6X platform. It also has only 12 memory slots.
As of now, RTX 4090 cannot be upgraded beyond 24GB of VRAM. Micron GDDR6X is only available in 2GB modules in 21Gbps and 24Gbps. Though it is possible to install 24Gbps modules (supported) to increase the bandwidth however the capacity cannot be increased. The returns on investment in upgrading from 21Gbps to 24Gbps modules will be negligible and benefit minimal (It is a theory based on calculations and yet to be tested though.) If in the future I get my hands on a 4090 and a user is willing, I will put this to the test and measure the difference in performance. If in the future Nvidia launches an RTX 4090 Ti or a 5090 it will be launched with the 24Gbps modules. (Speculation) It's the same with 7900XT or XTX. 7900 XT and XTX use GDDR6 memory and the bandwidth of each module is 20Gbps. Samsung is sampling a 24Gbps memory but it is still sampled and not mass-produced. So for 7900 XT and XTX we are using the top possible memory.
@@GraphicsCardRepairs-tk7ql Thanks! I have zero soldering experience. Do you think it's possible for me to do this memory swap if I watch some UA-cam videos on how to solder (including yours) and buy a dead GPU to practice on? And are the soldering tools expensive?
@@tonyd7644 Buying dead boards to practice is a good idea. You can practice all sort of things. once you are confident practice on older working hardware then switch to the new ones. remember its much harder to remove a chip on a 30 series and 40 series card than a older generation. quality of solder is different. Higher temperature are required to replac components.
getting a 3090 is still probably better, 2080ti with the chips would cost 450€ and if u get a 3090 for 600€ u have a newer card, pcie 4.0, gddr6x, 2gb more, 32bit bigger bus, better performance overall
3090 went up in price last time I checked. 2080ti and 3080 have gone down. The 2080ti has much lower power draw, undervolts to 150w easily and still fast in stable diffusion. Priced could change a lot once next gen drops. I would do 2080ti if you were to run it for long sessions or go with 4000 series. 3090 is a good option too if you aren't too concerned about power usage. The repair guy games its possible on the 3080 as well.

@@GraphicsCardRepairs-tk7ql i got two in nv-link if you wanna do it again lol
21:30 I had no idea they used the resistors like old school dip switches or jumpers. Thanks for the videos! Helps demystify graphics cards!
can you explain what he did there? Why he replaced these resistors?
I've been wanting to do this for my GPU for the longest time. I will use your video as reference. I started getting all the equipment I need for it.
Great. I wish you all the best. Remember never give up
What does upgrading the memory do for it?
@@vedob5163 I use it for stable diffusion image generation stuff, sometimes require a lot of vram to do certain things. The 2080ti is a very good card for it in terms of price/performance. And it undervolts very well, I'm running it at 150w. It as fast as a 4070 in terms of fp16 performance. You can do 16gb on a 3070 as well, slightly slower for SD work.
Thank you for sharing that info. Its really helpful specially for someone looking for options in the same workspace.
Practice on dead gpus first. Never a good one
I love what people like you can do. Such talent
Thank you 😁
Your whole project from working on the video and working on the gpu "just looks perfect" 👌🏼
Thanks!😁
Very impressive! My question is: How did you know what to do ? From where? Could you tell more about "straps" ? What are they? For what? What are they doing? What exactly did you set to high. You are VERY VERY underrated. To change the chips is easy for you and all people who have to do with those kind of repairs but your knowlegde is much more interesting to me. In any case more knowledge than I have 🙂
All information about straps is available in the schematic of the GPU. It also mentions how the configuration should be. For example 1 stands for high and 0 stands for low and M strands for medium. 1 connects 100k resistor to 1.8v, for 0 the resistor is connected to ground. As you play around you will get the hang of it. Start reading schematics it's fun. It gives a lot of insights.
@@GraphicsCardRepairs-tk7ql Thank you! I would never had thought that I would have to read the GPU schematics for a VRAM replacement :-) Even for more VRAM. I thought it would be a firmware thing :-) Thank you!
If it's in the schematic then it is in the BIOS and drivers as well.
I think I have the same questions like you 😉😅.
I have here one Radeon VII who quit service some years ago. The only thing I have done at this time, is to install a new driver. I always uninstall the older version, before.
I had asked the official support from AMD here in Germany, and they were very interested in that. They told me I should send this card to the service. I think I'll use this option for the first time.
And when they say they cannot make anything, or repair, then I'll ask this technician. He's absolutely amazing. Such detailed knowledge, I wonder 🧐🤔 where he did got this learned.
I do a lot of fine pitch mods/installs, but I have so much respect for BGA work. I don't think I could ever reach this level of skill.
Thank you 😁.
BGA work isn't really that difficult if you have a general idea of what you're supposed to do and not do.
My first foray into modding GPU's was upgrading my 750 Ti 2gb to 4gb. It was surprisingly easy.
Easy for you,because you have the knowledge and the skill to do this things.
Apreciate your hard work!!
Thank you for applying the thermal paste properly, man. I've seen so many videos of people maintaining or repairing graphics cards, and they don't spread the paste, meaning that parts of the silicon are at risk of not getting cooled properly. Spread paste if on bare core/silicon/diffusion barrier. Use whatever method you want if it's on a IHS.
I have the same view as you. Happy to have you onboard. 😃
I'm so used to using liquid metal, I forgot about that
I would be very careful using liquid metal. 😁
@@GraphicsCardRepairs-tk7ql don't worry, I am. I use two coats of liquid electrical tape on SMCs before I spread it on a die. IHS application is easier.

It will be ideal if you can post.
1. How much the upgraded RAM chips cost
2. How much for your work
3. What was the intention and EXPECTATIONS from the person who commissioned the work (game, video edit, blockchain or AI)
4. Did the person actually got the performance expected? more performance?, less performance? , what metrics were they using?
The cost of upgrading this 2080Ti including the memory is $220. This user wanted this upgrade for AI. The last conversation with the user was he was able to utilise the memory to run larger data sets. Since this was my first upgrade video I did not expect much interest. Mine is a small repair channel. I will include benchmarks and other stuff in my future videos.
@@GraphicsCardRepairs-tk7ql outstanding!
@@GraphicsCardRepairs-tk7ql
220 bucks for all the work and the memory chips? Bro that's insanely cheap. Especially if you count all the hours of work and equipment you are using.
I have swapped a single memory module once. And it was not easy.even with the right equipment. Hats off to you sir! Keep up the great job.
But I am still curious how you managed to get the schematics of the 2080Ti strix. I'm also very interested in those
@@GraphicsCardRepairs-tk7qlI think this could be a hugely popular service especially for newer generation cards with the newer tensor cores. A 3080TI or 3090 with 40gb+ would be a game changer for AI models, and could easily be worth the cost being $1000+

nice video straight to the point good quality. subbed
Thank you. Happy to have you onboard. 😁
Well done for pointing out that this is pointless for gaming. I was going to comment that if you didn't say it but you covered it beautifully.
Yes for gaming it does not make sense. There is no performance increase. Only games that exceed the 11GB buffer can benefit. In my opinion a handful of games. Unless you have a requirement for AI of something. 😁
but if the game requires more than 11gb of vram this will help him avoiding crashes because of vram limit
damn that is a really is a great idea I would like to see a fallow up with the customer to see if the GPU is still stable over a long period of time other then that an amazing video.
You said you would look at other GPU to do as well if you would be so kind as to upgrade an older card like a 1080 or 1660 just so we all know it can be done.
your doing amazing work keep it up!
Thank you 😁. The user of this GPU has commented on this video. 1080 already uses the highest possible memory compatible with it GDDR5X. There is no upgrade path ahead. 1660 is barely able to exceed its current memory buffer. GPUs like 30 series can benefit from this upgrade.
@@GraphicsCardRepairs-tk7ql thank you for replying to my comment I see where your going with the memory for the 1660 I kind of figured and its good to know that the mod is still working as it should great video

Thank you 😁
This is art. Well done!!!!!
Thank you 😁
one reason to have more vram on an older card is so that you can do 3D animation rendering with it. GPU based 3D rendering requires you to load the model into VRAM for each card so the amount of VRAM becomes a limit to the complexity of scene that you can render. more VRAM equals more complex scenes. You can also use multiple cards and split which cell they render to improve render times but you cannot stack VRAM so having more VRAM is very helpful. keep up the good work.
So much skill. Very impressive.
Thank you 😁 Happy to have you onboard.
hell yeah dude these are the people we need who can keep old tech in service just because it doesn't have enough memory doesn't mean it can't keep up with modern games.

Very interesting. I wonder what would happen if you put a chip on the empty 12th pad and flashed an RTX Titan bios to the card?
Hmmm now that's something on the table. If I get another 2080 ti I will experiment.
If I was a betting man I'd put money on the cut down die being fused off, regardless if the entire core was functional or not. It's also possible that the GPU is hard coded and it would just refuse to run but it'd be an interesting experiment.
I just don't see Nvidia allowing this to happen but I'm surprised even the denser modules works on the same bios so who knows.

As of now I am not doing any repairs or upgrades on laptops. Maybe in the future I may.
AMAZING. And I am only 10 minutes in. I wish I knew how to do this stuff. I wish I had the brain capacity to even learn just a little of what you know.

Maybe a PC for my grandkids. Great video you are a master!

*"I actually have 2 2080ti Asus Strix just laying around..."*
Did you ever try them in SLI?
@@bricaaron3978 of course. That is the only way I ever ran 2 cards back then. SLI is obsolete now though...
@@meade916 It is truly ridiculous that SLI has been abandoned. There is literally no legitimate reason except apathy.
After I built my first gaming PC in 2008 I bought a second GTX 260 and used SLI until I upgraded to a GTX 570. I never attemped SLI again simply because there were so few games that benefited from it, and often if it worked, the gain was only 60% or less.
SLI works --- it's just that nobody cared enough to properly code for it.
you have that heating mat in phone mode. It only heats the center of the pad. If you hold down the M button, it goes into tablet mode and heats the whole pad and also heats up faster.

not a bug ... a feature :D
Okay this is ACTUALLY crazy.
😁
Wow! Great technological wizardry/necromancy. Its always awesome to see these kind of technical upgrades that go level beyond overclocking.
Re: your question, I think for a 2080ti, 11gb is more than enough.
2070S 8gb runs pretty much every game now within reason, but if the user wants to do this, its probably for some kind of vram intensive work like 4k editing or something. Idk. Theres use cases beyond mining and AI that doesnt really need raw gpu power.

A bit like putting an Audi R8 gearbox on a Polo .
@@BarringtonRobinsonIIwell your not gonna believe this… it’s been done
I'm using an Infrared Cooker Plate (for cooking) and it's very good even for doing a GPU reball.
I wanted to buy a Puhui T8280 but I saw a video of a russian dude doing GPU reball with a IR cooking plate and I tried to do it myself.
It's very efficient for GPUs but not good with big PCB boards like ATX Motherboards because those need a big heating surface (the board flexes / wrap so bad when the temperature is not uniform on the whole board).
People find ways. I too started with ceramic plates and a controller..
T8280 has slow cool down and uniform heating. The cooking plate do not have these features. It will popcorn your pcb. You will also need a 600w or higher hot air station, preferably Atten ST-862D.
I remember the days using ceramic plates and I killed a lot of cores. Luckily they were mine so I have no regrets. But I learned a lot. Since then I moved to a 3 zone rework station and never looked back.
@@NaN_INF it's safe with GPU PCB boards when you know how to use it.
I've replaced a lot of Cores with it and I can say I have no problem anymore right know.
Of course I've toasted a lot of cores before mastering it but knowledge requires experience so I'm okay today.
But my goal is not the Puhui T8280 but at least an IR 6000 or higher.
Yes i agree. I still have my old modified gortak preheater with an external controller. Now a days its on the shelf retired. May be i will find some use of it again some day. I'm sure it still has its use case and the best suited when the 3 zone is too large for a job. I will make a video on it someday 😁.
i just saw your video title and auto subscribe your channel. cheers to the hard work.
Wow, thank you for subscribing! Your kind words mean a lot to me. I’m thrilled to have you on this journey!
It's hard to say if it's worth it for gaming, ie, 12GB is close to recommended 16GB min, but I do remember a Hardware Unboxed vid where extra memory allowed the textures to full form, ie, not enough memory and they are rough blob renders. They even showed a GPU render properly when started, but after 20min it ran out of memory and the pic became worse. Basically it's the cost, like is the $300 swap ok for a 10% better appearance in games.
Thank you for sharing 😁. An upgrade like this for gaming will hardly make any difference except for those AAA games which require a bigger buffer to load textures. Unless you have specific needs for higher memory this upgrade will make little to no difference. You guys using higher memory GPUs are the best source to tell the community if it's worth it. Happy to have you onboard.
it benefit for VR gameing, because it need to render two same high resolution scene
I have not used VR. If you have used it then you are better equipped to answer this question and it will deffinitly help the community. Thank you for sharing 😁.
The cards that need this are the 3070 and 3080 lmao, Nvidia is criminal with their planned obsolecense
3070 video will be coming soon. Also working on 3080 Ti but that's a mile away.
we need gaming benchmarks, before and after memory upgrade!
Very excellent.
I am curious, would this also work with K4ZAF325BM-HC16 memory? or must it be 14gbit memory chips?
It will work with K4ZAF325BM-HC16 also.
It should work but the firmware limits the maximum frequency and there's no practical way around this. Basically it'd let you overclock the memory as much as possible without any concern but stock chips can all typically handle a decent speed bump already so you really wouldn't get enough out of it to be worthwhile.
@@JJFX- more than just firmware (it can be modified) but also the core's imc must also be able to run at higher speeds to remain stable. At least as far as i know, unless you are able to change gearing or straps to allow different dividers / timing.
It would be nice to see how it performs before and after the upgrade. Do you get better higher fps from the upgrade?
Hi bro. Upgrade 22 gb. Performance going more better ?
Well the capacity has increased but not the bandwidth or the bus width. Games with high VRAM usages will benefit from it to load textures but how this will impact frames is yet untested.
This is fantastic!
Thank you 😁
Its not that easy ,bro just know what he is doing, dedicated and discipline 😊
"Maybe I can do this"
[clicks video]
"Oh...they are evil BGA. Forget it."
Believe you can and you will 😁
I have been tempted to do the same. But BM-HC14 and BM-HC16 are expensive chips, being 2GB. Maybe if I come across some extra chips I wouldn't mind using on my 2080Ti I will. But I never get the chance. Fun video man! Good music btw!
Thank you brother. 😁
I am planning a similar upgrade on a 3060ti. What do you think? I have HC-16 memory which I would want to try. I'm wondering how this upgrade would stack this GPU against a 4060 ti
@@GraphicsCardRepairs-tk7ql Why not go with D8BGX GDDR6X (the 21Gb version)? As you know, there are 3060Ti's in the wild with GDDR6X, like the one I have here waiting to be picked up.
However, given that 448.0 GB/s on the GDDR6 HC-14 (14 Gbps) vs 608.3 GB/s on GDDR6X (19 Gbps) version makes almost 0 difference in terms of performance, I highly doubt going from HC-14 to HC-16 would make sense.
But going to GDDR6X with higher speeds might make a difference. The only way to find out is to actually try it :) Though I do not know if even with the GDDR6X BIOS, the card will run at the higher speeds and actually run the card at 21Gbps on D8BGX GDDR6X 😕
The GDDR6X 3060Ti trace connection on the PCB are different. GDDR6X will not work work on GRRD6 PCB. pin out layout is different. Data pins layout is not the same.
@@GraphicsCardRepairs-tk7ql Ah I did not know that! Since I use the same stencil for re-balling GDDR6 and GDDR6X. But the ball pinout having a different data layout is a deal breaker! But regarding your original idea, I think it would be a waste of VRAM, since GDDR6X has already been proven to make no performance difference against the Samsung HC14 chips, let alone HC16 which is still slower than GDDR6X D8BGW at 19Gbps. And HC16 is so expensive for me, I'm careful with it LOL
This is great, Makes me want to research into this for a 3080 10GB
Wow the driver is just fine with a 22GB 2080Ti? I always heard these memory upgrades (like the 3070 16GB upgrade) resulted in a slightly confused/angry driver.
A 22GB 2080Ti is probably a great choice for Stable Diffusion etc. I know 3090 24GB cards are highly prized by people running these applications and can be quite expensive/hard to find despite being quite old now. A 2080Ti with a 22GB upgrade might be quite appealing, I know the price of 2080 cards has fallen quite a lot and is maybe only 20-30% slower than a 3090 in these applications.
Nvidia made these cards with plans to launch with high capacity memory but never released it. Maybe because of the lack of competition.
@@GraphicsCardRepairs-tk7ql Very cool, definitely a worthwhile upgrade. I calculate theoretical FP16 performance to be 25% less than 3090 so maybe worth it, how much would you charge for an upgrade like this?
75 USD for the repair. Does not include memory.
@@GraphicsCardRepairs-tk7ql Wow! Just $75 ? In Germany you wouldn´t be able to do that work for such a price. Our government steal more than the half of our money. They call it tax. Otherwise I would offer it too - and much more 😕
Hmmm. 50% in tax is a stretch. I hope they add a lot of value in terms of services to citizens.
I would to have this done to a 3080, to go from 10GB to 20GB of VRAM. That would make a real 4K high settings gaming GPU out of one that never had enough VRAM from new. I have nothing close to the knowledge or skill to pull this off.
I hope you like this video 😁. Yes, you will require skills to replace memory. but skill is built over time with practice. If you start to practice (starting with dead boards) you will build the required skill over time.
yes that will help ray overdrive
Just wow, your skill is amazing. I am stuned and in awe. The YT algorythm made a great recommendation too. I rarely do subscribe but you need to be seen and heard of. Now the toughts.

I'd happily pay a good amount to put 48gb on a 4090
I'm gonna send you my 4090 to upgrade it to 48GB. Sound good?
Unfortunately none of the 40 series can be upgraded. It already uses 2GB memory modules which is the highest capacity produced on GDDR6X platform. It also has only 12 memory slots.
Love this video! If I were to send my rtx 3070 to upgrade to 16gb? What would be the cost and time to upgrade?

New subscriber nicely done wouldn't mind sending my GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 4060 TI AORUS ELITE upgrade from that prethtic 8gb to 16 or evin 18gb
Unfortunately none of the 40 series can be upgraded. They all use 2GB memory modules.
Maybe for an other Video.
Is it possible to double the VRAM on a RTX4090 or RX7900XTX?
And why is no Chip on M11?
As of now, RTX 4090 cannot be upgraded beyond 24GB of VRAM. Micron GDDR6X is only available in 2GB modules in 21Gbps and 24Gbps. Though it is possible to install 24Gbps modules (supported) to increase the bandwidth however the capacity cannot be increased.
The returns on investment in upgrading from 21Gbps to 24Gbps modules will be negligible and benefit minimal (It is a theory based on calculations and yet to be tested though.) If in the future I get my hands on a 4090 and a user is willing, I will put this to the test and measure the difference in performance.
If in the future Nvidia launches an RTX 4090 Ti or a 5090 it will be launched with the 24Gbps modules. (Speculation)
It's the same with 7900XT or XTX. 7900 XT and XTX use GDDR6 memory and the bandwidth of each module is 20Gbps. Samsung is sampling a 24Gbps memory but it is still sampled and not mass-produced. So for 7900 XT and XTX we are using the top possible memory.
@@GraphicsCardRepairs-tk7ql How much does the 2GB Micron GDDR6X cost? Cheaper to buy off Aliexpress? And have you gotten the 3080 mod to work?
Yes you can buy off Aliexpress. Only buy new.
@@GraphicsCardRepairs-tk7ql Thanks! I have zero soldering experience. Do you think it's possible for me to do this memory swap if I watch some UA-cam videos on how to solder (including yours) and buy a dead GPU to practice on? And are the soldering tools expensive?
@@tonyd7644 Buying dead boards to practice is a good idea. You can practice all sort of things. once you are confident practice on older working hardware then switch to the new ones. remember its much harder to remove a chip on a 30 series and 40 series card than a older generation. quality of solder is different. Higher temperature are required to replac components.
This was oddly satisfying to watch thank you
getting a 3090 is still probably better, 2080ti with the chips would cost 450€ and if u get a 3090 for 600€ u have a newer card, pcie 4.0, gddr6x, 2gb more, 32bit bigger bus, better performance overall
Thank you for sharing. happy to have you onboard 😁
maybe not
Thank you for sharing your view though 😁
3090 went up in price last time I checked. 2080ti and 3080 have gone down. The 2080ti has much lower power draw, undervolts to 150w easily and still fast in stable diffusion. Priced could change a lot once next gen drops. I would do 2080ti if you were to run it for long sessions or go with 4000 series. 3090 is a good option too if you aren't too concerned about power usage. The repair guy games its possible on the 3080 as well.
