It is really cool to see this cpu being repaired instead of becoming more e-waste. I hope you make the video showing the repair of the ryzen cpu pins; I want to see that! :)
Just watching your videos makes me all the more interested in the PC building community. I have yet to miss a single one of your uploads XD You've always got something intriguing going on
I wonder what that resistor's function is if the system seems to work without it. Anyways, great job on the repair of the other two. Working with such small SMDs can be a pain.
It's so impressive seeing that you were able to actually get the 12900k back to working conditions so big props on that. And I always have really enjoyed that you record doing the work because it makes it that much more intriguing.
Great job with the smd's on the intel chip. For the AMD ones you could also try to use different diameter seringe needles that are used for science experiments and have round tip.
Great work Roman. Usually ripped off pads are very hard to work with. Scratching the surface is probably the only way to try to expose some metal from beneath.
It's nice to see broken hardware being revived and working, I've just done this myself by replacing a blown input filtering capacitor for the vrm on a z370 motherboard.
Surprised you were successful. I saw that missing pad and figured "That's it, he's screwed." Nice job Roman. It's cool seeing these things being fixed, especially when it's such a sought after part for so many and was essentially just ewaste.
I didn’t think it would be possible to fix a broken cpu, but now that I think about it if it wasn’t possible to do then people wouldn’t sell broken ones on sites like ebay. Cool to see, I’m glad you got at least some of them working :)
This is the kind of content why I subscribed to you in the first place. Thanks a lot for keep bringing us some different, unique and more engineering-related kind of content, Roman!
I have zero experience with soldering or this level of electronics repair but you just make everything seem possible. Really enjoyed the video, thanks!
Thanks for doing this, most people throw away any piece of equipment not working properly, so it's nice to see some information on how to repair what most people see as pure wizardry.
great video, amazing how something so technologically advanced can be broken and repaired relatively simply. keep up the awesome videos, can't thank you enough for them.
I repair vintage computers so I've done work like this. And it's super hard and annoying - so well done! I forget that I could use these skills on new parts - but I think I'll leave my own fully working modern PC alone for now! Love the videos!
I'm really amazed by your dedication to this, I love it ! I kinda do that myself, like bending pins back to their normal state, on CPUs and motherboards, but without this equipment, no microscope or lens It's hard, but it's just really satisfying to brought hardware back to life ! :D
I'm impressed with what you did. I'm old now, and my shakey ass hands would never be able to fix those SMDs, the pins I could do yeah, the soldering, NOPE!

Man, you are incredible, thanks to you I can overclock my core2 Quad for the first time, now you repair cpus that anyone would give up for dead, you are great bro.
@ There's a mod you can do with electrical tape on the core2 quad called BSEL, I was running my old Q6600 @ 3GHz all 4 cores for like 5 years

@@_BangDroid_ Wow, I really didn't know about it, and in fact I just overclocked my old Q9650, and only managed to overclock it to 3.4GHz, since it really is a CPU that I don't use anymore.
i just feels fun when you can actually see the results by looking through the descriptions, however its still a nice touch to be lbe to get into a 12900k giveaway, these things are priced at 1000 bucks at my place for some reason lol
I’m pleasantly surprised that it worked with that missing smd. I’m great job on rescuing it and showing others how to! I’d love to get my hands on it, been trying to save up for a much faster cpu for awhile now for running my build I had as a kid in pcem. My old ivy bridge based stuff just isn’t up to the task. Got everything I need for my new build other than cpu and motherboard at this point.
Pretty cool that it worked so well! I have to give you a ton of credit for doing that because I found soldering new batteries on old GameBoy catridges scary to do. I'd be sweating doing that on an expensive CPU. Though I guess it's worth the risk.
Wow, awesome job! Really surprised it worked. Had a 9900k before with missing smd from the back that we tried to repair this way and never got it to boot.
Glad to see that repairing the broken pad and soldering the final resistor wasn't required to ressurect the CPU! I'd be a bit worried about soldering to the side with the via after scraping away the fiberglass, as the copper underneath might not be part of the same electrical net compared to the via, and soldering to the tiny 80 um via without bridging to the pad is way outside my skills.
I honestly wasn't anticipating that decent benchmark result considering how it looked before hand. nicely done man.
Love how technical these videos are. If i just imagine soldering these tiny components, i would totaly mess it up pretty sure.

Why ? *All Intel CPU's, are already e-waste !*
Intel was, is, and will ever be CRAP !

Great video and thanks for your generosity in running this giveaway Roman! I'm sure that your community greatly appreciates it!
Always nice to see something broken repaired rather than just tossed out. Good job.
You will own nothing
And this is why it's okay

You've always got something intriguing going on
It's always great seeing you fix parts like these damaged CPUs or flooded components, instead of them ending up in a pile of e-waste
Wow, never even heard of CPUs getting repaired. This is cool. And thank you for giving this 12900K away.
Nice video. The desoldering tweezers are not in the description I think, but it’s a Weller wxmt ms approx: 280$
I wonder what that resistor's function is if the system seems to work without it. Anyways, great job on the repair of the other two. Working with such small SMDs can be a pain.
Amazing job on the 12900k repair! Nice to see some of the broken parts not end up in a junkyard
So interesting that it worked without that smd in the circuit. The long term reliability of the cpu will definitely be an interesting study
It's so great to see these types of videos. I also fix random devices but this repair is at the next level. Great job!
It is a bit surprising to see the CPU working fine with an MLCC missing, although missing a resistor is a no-go.
It's so impressive seeing that you were able to actually get the 12900k back to working conditions so big props on that. And I always have really enjoyed that you record doing the work because it makes it that much more intriguing.
It's truly amazing how something so small, like the SMDs, can brick a CPU. Great work!
Yes, still want to dig deeper in what SMDs really do in CPUs, and can a CPU survive and working properly with a part or some SMD missing?
@@averyoldUA-camuser yes it can. I knocked off one during 4690K delid and it worked completly fine
Love your videos. Always nice to see the overclocking and technical content! Cool idea for the giveaway!

Great work Roman. Usually ripped off pads are very hard to work with. Scratching the surface is probably the only way to try to expose some metal from beneath.
Have to wonder how these got damaged, always interesting how repairs for such tiny but significant damage can be done!
Got to be pretty rough to cause that honestly
I'm glad to see it working again. I thought it wouldn't post. Keep up the good work!

Great video! It is always good to see your attempts to repair computer hardware, instead of it ending up in the wastebin.
Restoration videos are my favorite. Good job on the repair!
Nice work getting that 12900k working again mate, Always interesting watching people fix stuff like this. :)
I love these repair videos. Wish there were more overall on UA-cam. Really enjoy them.
Love to watch those kinds of repair videos. Awesome job.
Excellent job on the 12900K! Congrats on saving it an congrats on the lucky winner getting it!
Great video, interesting to see the work that actually goes into fixing problems like this.
Nice fix!!!! Congrats, DerBauer!!!

I did not expect you to get that intel CPU working again with the small SMBs gone. Great job!
Love soldering/repair vids. Really neat.
Always awesome and informative, very well done.
Good work man! Soldering such small SMD's is quite a challenge!
Muy buena reparación, eres un maestro ((good repair, you are a master))
learning so much about computer hardware from you. Amazing what you can do with a soldering iron

Great Job repairing this SMDs! Quite strange these stuffs knocked off.
Super cool to see you fixing the SMDs, they are so tiny that I have no idea how you managed it! I feel like my hands would be too shaky lol
Really impressive how did u manage to repair this, really love seeing electronics getting repaired
Great video . I watched your video for the first time . It is very useful . Will help me a lot in my repair work ✌️ thank you

Great work Roman! it's always good to see dead electronics being brought back to live instead of being thrown away... repair, recycle, buy used.
Alway nice to watch you changing soldered on parts, even better when you give it away afterwards!
didn’t expect it to work again but amazing work!!
Very cool to see it go back to life and even perform ok on Cinebench. Good job!

Very steady hands precision required to have success in such delicate CPU parts.. Great Job
I'm shocked that the cpu came back to life, especially with how fine the work had to be to make a good contact again, great work as always :)
