Don't let him get to your nerves. I deal with customers every day like you and I realized that the more you do for them, the worst they treat you. Do what you can, always with respect and smile... Be cool! Nice day!
I love that you don't edit out mistakes let's everyone see mistakes can be made by even someone of your skill level which in my opinion is damn near God like. Keep up the great videos my friend Thanks for the lessons 👍
Hi NorthRidgeFix, I am so proud of the fact that you have always inspired us by your professionalism. For those that ridiculed your service are the ones that have no tomorrow. Keep up with the great work...
I'm sorry for my fellow Canadian. Most of us are nice and not idiots. btw I ordered a bunch of stuff from you and it's arriving tomorrow. Thats stupid fast and thank you. I'm sure to get more stuff from you down the road as I'm learning to fix asic hash boards. Iv learned so much watching your channel so thank you. Have a great day and don't work too much.
Being a fellow Canadian, yes, generally we appreciate other people's efforts to help the ...world, basically. UA-cam reaches out to anyone. This is a great channel. I have ordered from the store a couple times and both have been delivered crazy fast. Not enjoying custom fees but it is what it is. Thanks Northridgefix, Alex for the videos, Bigboss to help you look good, and Dad for his persistence to take care of eCommerce with top quality.
@Dan Arseneau yes the customs is BS but I still like to support him and his family too. Sure I could get it closer to home but it's my way as I'm sure it's your way to show appreciation for the fantastic information he provides.
Every video: "Okay, we have our probe in continuity mode.... " nothing happens, "Okay, lets put our probe in continuity mode". Great content! Loving how real it all is.
Finally able to watch your videos again after a long time. If you heard about Typhoon Rai back on the 16th of December, it struck our place spot on. I live in Cebu, Philippines, and our city terribly suffering up to now. We went off the grid for over a month, no power, and internet, no nothing, just darkness. Now, everything are just starting to rise back uo again, I got my internet back too. 😁
I've been watching your videos for over a year now. You are kind, honest, and fair. Unprofessional is on the opposite side of the spectrum of words I would use to describe you. Keep up the good work.
This video shows many times why fixing graphics cards is harder than almost everything else in the world of tech. 1. High levels of concentration while figuring out what is wrong. 2. Better than average tools to do the fix. 3. Professional hands, steady and precise. 4. Perfect testing environment, with many parts. 5. Time consuming verification. Thanks to that (and more) fixing them gives a very sweet smile to the face, and a powerful feeling.
Very satisfiing seeing you repairing cards, in particular in this period. I guess that adding some more space and using a pc bench would help to work even better
Great job as always with this video card repair. Stand you ground as you are doing with Mr. Canada. Looks like they ruined it for others. Things people here need to remember is that you have a ton of repairs and it is only "YOU" that actually is doing these repairs. Yes you have your family dissembling and reassembling but you the one with the knowhow and skills. One person can only do so much per day. For these impatient people you should invite them in to fix themselves if they think they can do it faster 🙂
but why? at the end of the day alex excepted a gpu fix even though he didnt want to. not only that he forced the customer to pay for expedited, possibly as an attempt to persuade the customer from not wanting the repair. if so then alex shot himself in the foot not once but twice. the first time for making the offer and the second time for taking the job. expedited is expedited. as a customer if you force me to pay more like in these terms ohh you better believe im going to be on your case. im not the type of customer to annoy any hard working individual. i used to wait tables for a long time so i know im not. we all love alex but i dont agree with him on this one. it could all have been avoided if he just said no. him charging a fee for the repair attempt i agree with its a gpu a lot of material and time goes into fixing them, not to mention the dead cores. if i had a customer like this i would be pissed to. the only difference is i would bite my tounge cuz its no ones fault but mine. all the customer did was pay for a service and expect said paid service in return. sure its annoying but its within his rights as a customer.
@@umdasu alex has a lot of work, expedited means that your device would be a priority fix but he also has other expedited devices waiting . He did the guy a favor on allowing to fix his graphics card but he nags him for taking long, that’s just being ungrateful.
@@umdasu while I understand your point, the wait time is around 2 years for a GPU at present. To expect extradited service to be within days is always going to be unlikely. I would be waiting a couple of weeks before messaging. It sounds to me like the customer really wants it fixing, he clearly has things he wants to do with it. Unfortunately it takes time. Imagine the money that would come in if Alex could fix all these immediately!
Don't let one guy from Canada leave you with a bad feeling about us Canadians. Given your track record and due diligence, I would have said. I'm grateful and take as long as you need. Thank you very much.
Hi Alex! Thank you for all the uploads to your channel, I have learned a ton and completed some repairs i wouldn't have attempted a few months ago. I think it's time I invest in a thermal camera, what a handy tool.
Alex is the man! I went to his store and his backlog is stupid... people think he has the ability to work on their card in a day or two. He tells you it may take a few days or weeks to even get to your card or item. And if its a no fix then that's the risk you take for taking it to him. People leaving bad reviews are just jerk customers. If you want to attempt it yourself, go ahead and buy your own equipment and unsolder tiny resistors off your GPU.
we love the way how you educate people for free at the same time while you daigonose the fault and solve it i wish you big feuther you channel is amazing and simple on the way of understanding this channel should reach more than 1M because it free education and practical lesson im watching you in daily and still learn every day new things all the best regards
Honnestly, You should up the prices of all the services. Demand is high, but you can't deliver anymore to demand. So its better to start asking for higher prices. Also the expodited services are very common, maybe to gap between a normal service and expodited services is to small. Im not a professional but it sounds like people are willing to pay more. so don't make your life miserable and lower demand by upping the price a bit until you can do the work and have enough demand :) Keep the good work! You make it look easy :)
Sir you are doing a very great job and spending your precious time for guyz like us. A suggestion for you to place a camera on multi the multi tester so we could see whats going on. Thanks.
Alex you are doing a great job. It's all in your head and your brain starts to drive you crazy. sometimes after several failures you need a success, you had that with this GFX card. great work and the day is saved, at least in your head. I don't think it would work so well without a thermal imaging camera. Don't worry if a customer is so annoying and asks for his card after such a short time. everyone who follows your channel knows that you have a lot of work to do. he should just be happy that you still accepted the order even though you no longer accept GFX-cards at the moment. Greets from vienna
Great work Alex. I love your work and precision and I learn from you. Don't let nagging customers to ruin your day. I suggest that you should charge the nagging customers extra if they nagg within a week. kind regards and greetings from Hellas
That's what I do. I even write it in the invoice! And if you go to someone else but come back to me when they can't fix it, I tack on another 25 to 40 dollars because you wasted my time.
Iam lebanease love all your videos helped me alot love to work with you and love when you say we did it and we fixed it i am a medical tec and love to fix everything great job bro❤️
Keep up the great vids it’s what happens with ignorant childish people .. not everyone is like that but most appreciate ur hard work .. I love working on items n micro soldering, ur vids have shown me many tips and tricks and I appreciate that .. it’s made me a better technician. Tho it’s not my line of work but a passion .. n thanks to ur videos my knowledge has grown . Awesome work .. thanks 👍
great fix alex ..i think a nagging tax should be added to nagging customers..but i think if this customer begs again you will sort them out with a fix its the sort of person you are ....regards to big boss alex hes not recognised enough and i know he works hard like yourself ...just say thank you from me to him ......joe from uk
people will always complain no matter you do good or bad job. dont bother with them simply tell them dont come anymore to my shop. i had a few situations like that
Unfortunately there will always be customers like that... the customer ISN'T always right but keep up your great work saving the public $€£¥ by repairing the 'unrepairable' 🤓👍
I thought Canadians were always nice? Does this customer think that he is the only one you have? People need to be more realistic and stop acting like spoiled children thinking they are the only person that has feelings or matters in the world. Sorry Alex, you are a good person and amazing at what you do.
Btw NorthridgeFix. I might have an older GTX card I'd like to send out to you!!! I'm from Canada and willing to pay all shipping and cost just so that my card is featured on your show! I don't even care how long it would take!
More gpu repair videos, I could watch these all day, they have inspired me to start repairing gpus for personal use!, also do you know when you will be getting more voltage injectors in?
I really love your vedio's and I really appreciate the work and the knowledge you use tho I work on my on electronics I find I appreciate what I have and the little knowledge I have has grown. keep up the good work...
any particular reason why you guys are not accepting repairs for video cards? with gpu prices high i would honestly go for repair rather than buying a new one with an inflated price, regardless awesome video
We have a large graphics card queue that will take a year to finish . We have 3 shelves like that. ua-cam.com/channels/LaXgfNlVxY149shiA1pykQ.htmlcommunity?lb=UgkxGtfLjJh3rJVnzTCeW-EqIpxug36CvU2c
He stopped accepting cards due to the number of cards yet to be examined. I think the last count was around 200 cards awaiting their first investigation.
With jobs you win some and loose some. Same as customers. If they can't for you then there not worth working for. If you want a job doing properly ask a busy professional. Keep up the good work.
That customer has no patience just mail back with out fixing wow he is a pain but lucky it was fix to him get a life and RELAX dude he fixed it and is a busy man
Hay muy pocos lugares donde reparen targetas graficas y la gente esta desesperada al no poder comprar una nueva con los precios que hay actualmente , por ese motivo al ver tus videos la gente tiene una esperanza de poder revivir su grafica a un precio mas economico si hay suerte , poreso la gran demanda de reparacion de graficas ,aqui en España pasa lo mismo.
Keep up the good work, don't let customers try to talk you into doing things that you are not willing to do.
I love that everytime you manage to fix something, you still have some shining stars in your eyes. Job well done as always! Congratulations!
100% agree. It is what makes his channel stand out from other "similar" ones.
Same he seems so happy when a fix is confirmed, he definitely loves his job!
It means it's payday 💸💸
Don't let him get to your nerves. I deal with customers every day like you and I realized that the more you do for them, the worst they treat you. Do what you can, always with respect and smile... Be cool! Nice day!
I love that you don't edit out mistakes let's everyone see mistakes can be made by even someone of your skill level which in my opinion is damn near God like. Keep up the great videos my friend Thanks for the lessons 👍
that thermocamera is amazing, being able to pick up such a small temperature increase... these boards are so thick that the pcb itself is a heatsink
Takes forever to heat up the solder too
Hi NorthRidgeFix,
I am so proud of the fact that you have always inspired us by your professionalism. For those that ridiculed your service are the ones that have no tomorrow. Keep up with the great work...
Great video just a friendly reminder to any customer sending in any repairs you cannot rush perfection...
I'm sorry for my fellow Canadian. Most of us are nice and not idiots. btw I ordered a bunch of stuff from you and it's arriving tomorrow. Thats stupid fast and thank you.

Have you seen the dead hard drive video? Same deal, love the realness!
The genuine smile of joy when you get something fixed cannot be faked. Great work!
Finally able to watch your videos again after a long time. If you heard about Typhoon Rai back on the 16th of December, it struck our place spot on.

Man it makes my day when i see you smile after successfully solving problem, thanks for sharing joy with us!
i truly love how genuine you are when you fix something...
I've been watching your videos for over a year now. You are kind, honest, and fair. Unprofessional is on the opposite side of the spectrum of words I would use to describe you. Keep up the good work.
Great to see another video. So disappointed on days where there are none. This really is my Northridge Fix. 😄
The feeling of fixing something that was previously bad is amazing
This guy is very skilled and really enjoy watching his repairs
This video shows many times why fixing graphics cards is harder than almost everything else in the world of tech.
1. High levels of concentration while figuring out what is wrong.
2. Better than average tools to do the fix.
3. Professional hands, steady and precise.
4. Perfect testing environment, with many parts.
5. Time consuming verification.
Thanks to that (and more) fixing them gives a very sweet smile to the face, and a powerful feeling.
It's so satisfying watching you try and repair complex electronic devices, even when you can't fix the problem. 👍
Watching your video makes me also want to be able to do what you did and at the end have that same smile 😁 of a successful fix.
always brings me joy when you fix a video card. i feel for the person who had it break down in these tough times
Very satisfiing seeing you repairing cards, in particular in this period. I guess that adding some more space and using a pc bench would help to work even better

Alex you should add on Nagging charges along with Expedited service charge + Repair Attempt fee.
but why? at the end of the day alex excepted a gpu fix even though he didnt want to. not only that he forced the customer to pay for expedited, possibly as an attempt to persuade the customer from not wanting the repair. if so then alex shot himself in the foot not once but twice. the first time for making the offer and the second time for taking the job. expedited is expedited. as a customer if you force me to pay more like in these terms ohh you better believe im going to be on your case.

@@zigbug1314 thanks for your understanding. im just saying alex dug his own grave on this one. even though he is annoyed.
You do amazing work Alex, we appreciate your hard work. Everyone needs to be fed positive words.. keeping that positive mindset.
Don't let one guy from Canada leave you with a bad feeling about us Canadians. Given your track record and due diligence, I would have said. I'm grateful and take as long as you need. Thank you very much.
Nice to see a graphics card repair from you. Thanks!
Hi Alex! Thank you for all the uploads to your channel, I have learned a ton and completed some repairs i wouldn't have attempted a few months ago. I think it's time I invest in a thermal camera, what a handy tool.
Now that's experience - smallest blip on the radar and you noticed it instantly! 👌👏 Customer might not, but we appreciate this fix. 😉👍
I spent 10 year in the repair industry and I can see in your face that buzz when it's a 'fix' :)
Great video and great repair. Suspense was killing me at the end.
Love the work you did on this card, I feel like an apprentice looking over your shoulder, even though I don't know electronics 😅
I just love that smile when its fixed.

Great job as always. You are simply the best. Thank you for sharing with us.
we love the way how you educate people for free at the same time while you daigonose the fault and solve it
i wish you big feuther
you channel is amazing and simple on the way of understanding
this channel should reach more than 1M because it free education and practical lesson
im watching you in daily and still learn every day new things
all the best regards
Hello sir , great logo for the shirts save the world from complaints I’m loving it !
Great job, as always! Don't let you pull down, from persons, that will try to harm your company, with comments like that. Stay as you are, pls :)
You saved the customer a lot of money and trouble given how crazy expensive graphics cards are right now.
I'm not disappointed. This is a great channel. Cheers!

Feels like almost live ! Nice job.
It feels awesome when somthing fixed & then u smile.
We want to see you work on the graphics card from that customer.
Sir you are doing a very great job and spending your precious time for guyz like us.
A suggestion for you to place a camera on multi the multi tester so we could see whats going on.
Thanks.
11:25 you know its a great video when you have that big smile and laugh (Success!) I really enjoy watching you do your electronics magic.
another card saved!🤩 i hope to send my cards to you at the store soon.
The feeling when you repair is successful - priceless (all that adrenaline when you turn it on first time and wait)
Everytime I hear : "let's get rid of the glare", I know that what come next is a satisfaction to my eyes. 😃
Hello and do not be tired
I am Farhad from Iran and I love you. I hope to always be successful
Alex you are doing a great job.

Sorry you have to deal with customers like that. Y'all are the best!!!
I get bored at work. I do the night shift and look forward to your next video.
good work like usual!hello from France and bravo!
Thats just awesome. You are able to troubleshoot a vídeo card in less than 1 minute. Awesome
That thermal cam is best in those cases
Keep it up 😃
I'm glad to see VGA repair videos even though the customer behaved horribly. I'm sorry you have to deal with people like him
Great work Alex. I love your work and precision and I learn from you. Don't let nagging customers to ruin your day. I suggest that you should charge the nagging customers extra if they nagg within a week. kind regards and greetings from Hellas
Great ideia. Like a tax for everytime the customer nags.
That's what I do. I even write it in the invoice! And if you go to someone else but come back to me when they can't fix it, I tack on another 25 to 40 dollars because you wasted my time.

Nice job. You're a stand-up guy.
you give them an inch, they take a mile....
Great patience my friend.
Always good to hear "The short is gone" and that laugh of victory afterwards. That would be a nice quote on a shirt haha
You are doing a wonderful job, please keep it up, enjoy your videos
Well done Alex! Finally some GPU is back from dead
good job and please make a follow up video of this 2080 super
Happy ending of the day.Keep up the good work.
You do a perfect job
I Hope everything goes well for you and your familly
Fixing a GPU is really satisfieing
Nice job man
Nice one sir alex. i wish you Good health always ang your family.
Great job! Thanks for the content. Enjoyed it!
Major part of broken cards now come from mining farms. Find Hiroshimas, Fused mosfets an multi level short circuit are the routine.
Keep up the great vids it’s what happens with ignorant childish people .. not everyone is like that but most appreciate ur hard work .. I love working on items n micro soldering, ur vids have shown me many tips and tricks and I appreciate that .. it’s made me a better technician. Tho it’s not my line of work but a passion .. n thanks to ur videos my knowledge has grown . Awesome work .. thanks 👍
love the way when he laugh and say "short is gone"😄😄
Grinding pen link is broken in the description. Ok to remove this commend when you fix.
great fix alex ..i think a nagging tax should be added to nagging customers..but i think if this customer begs again you will sort them out with a fix its the sort of person you are ....regards to big boss alex hes not recognised enough and i know he works hard like yourself ...just say thank you from me to him ......joe from uk
There is a nagging tax. It’s called ‘Don’t come back again’. So satisfying when you tax them.
Good Job. I've learned too much from you
people will always complain no matter you do good or bad job. dont bother with them simply tell them dont come anymore to my shop. i had a few situations like that
Unfortunately there will always be customers like that... the customer ISN'T always right but keep up your great work saving the public $€£¥ by repairing the 'unrepairable' 🤓👍
To bad you couldn’t fix those iPads ! But man are you a wizard with the gpu’s!!
I thought Canadians were always nice? Does this customer think that he is the only one you have? People need to be more realistic and stop acting like spoiled children thinking they are the only person that has feelings or matters in the world. Sorry Alex, you are a good person and amazing at what you do.

Thanks for all you videos. Keep up the good work
More gpu repair videos, I could watch these all day, they have inspired me to start repairing gpus for personal use!, also do you know when you will be getting more voltage injectors in?
That man is a legend
I enjoy your honesty in regards of some nagging customer.
You really need some more space on your workbench .
Cheers
i like ur smile after success, nice work dude ;)
I really love your vedio's and I really appreciate the work and the knowledge you use tho I work on my on electronics I find I appreciate what I have and the little knowledge I have has grown. keep up the good work...
Amazing job, very well explain
thank you !
Another great vid!video!! Thoroughly enjoy your content!! I have learned a lot watching you!!!
Well done!
good job mate.
Well done. Love your work
Great content always,we admire you from Greece!Do you suggest any good book with regard the troubleshooting you apply?
any particular reason why you guys are not accepting repairs for video cards? with gpu prices high i would honestly go for repair rather than buying a new one with an inflated price, regardless awesome video
We have a large graphics card queue that will take a year to finish . We have 3 shelves like that. ua-cam.com/channels/LaXgfNlVxY149shiA1pykQ.htmlcommunity?lb=UgkxGtfLjJh3rJVnzTCeW-EqIpxug36CvU2c
His store is full of cards that need reparing... if he accepts more cards the customers will have to wait months to get their cards back
He said he took in too much video cards that are waiting to be fixed since last year.
He stopped accepting cards due to the number of cards yet to be examined. I think the last count was around 200 cards awaiting their first investigation.
probably because they are a pain to work on and the time verses percentage of no fixes dosnt make business sense
With jobs you win some and loose some. Same as customers. If they can't for you then there not worth working for.
If you want a job doing properly ask a busy professional. Keep up the good work.
I feel sorry for the nagging customer you had, but hey it's a successful repair. A smile in the end as always 😄👍
Love to see your videos! Good Job!
That customer has no patience just mail back with out fixing wow he is a pain but lucky it was fix to him get a life and RELAX dude he fixed it and is a busy man
Hay muy pocos lugares donde reparen targetas graficas y la gente esta desesperada al no poder comprar una nueva con los precios que hay actualmente , por ese motivo al ver tus videos la gente tiene una esperanza de poder revivir su grafica a un precio mas economico si hay suerte , poreso la gran demanda de reparacion de graficas ,aqui en España pasa lo mismo.
