You can't win them all. Indeed you were right-this was a poor use of time. The "H" chipsets are low-end and limited in features. When new this board sold for $50. In perfect condition it should be worth about $20 today! My idea is to work on the most valuable boards first. Checking the passive power consumption is smart, but I propose using a thermal camera to check for overheating chipsets as the first step. Those boards would go directly into the parts bin. Anyway, it's a good video even though the board isn't good.
It can't be the PCH what takes 200mA when the board is turned off... You should check the board with the thermal camera without injecting any voltage. Especially around the 3.3V line (IO chip?)
Hi Mainboard Medic , schönes Video danke dafür . Wie immer sehr interessant .Ich zb. nutze für das Flux Mittel Thrombose Spritzen mit etwas dickerer Nadel , funktioniert wunder bar und man hat nicht das ganze OP Feld voll mit der Pampe.
@@Takashita_Sukakoki Reballing it wouldnt be a problem, but soldering it on properly is a lot harder then it seems. Getting BGA´s so it right is a art on its own!
Hey there, the software is called Boardviewer.exe and i find my shematics by googling them. For MSI they have other names that you need to google. Somewhere close to the MSO MAG b660 name there should be something like MS-7DXX or MS-XXXX (X being a different charakter here) and you need to find that and google for that!
Asrock is more budget oriented manufacturer and H series motherboards are also from budget category, so I would bet on poor QA control or cheap out on used materials.

Might be an idea to use fixed focus, because the in&out-of-focus was a bit annoying.
Probably is the way to go, i am realy fighting this camera since a few videos now!

Das sollte ich auch mal machen. Muss mal gucken ob ich das umfüllen kann, würde die Arbeit damit auf jeden Fall einfacher machen!
Could lift the PCH as practice with preheating and hot air. Nothing to really lose (except time) its a low end board/chipset.
True that, but then i just have a board withouth the pch and with no replacement or tools to replace it, so no real use in that
@@MainboardMedic could reball and take a chance but even so its uneconomical as repairs go

Hi what boardview program do you use on your computer? And how do you find the boardview schematics? I’m trying to find one for msi mag b660. Thanks!

Are you sure that there is no damage to any of the caps behind PCH? I'd at least check it with a thermal camera.
Bro can you give me a link to the 10 pin tpm header cable you use for flash msi main boards
Ive built that myself actually. So i just used a Boardview and a header and soldered it together.

Why not reflow.
