    It is amazing how such a small fault can render a complete computer scrap without component level fault diagnostic skills. And this is now also expected to be done without circuit diagrams. Nice job 👍

    I love how happy Alex gets every time he sees a successful repair. I’ve learned a lot from this channel even though I’ve been doing the same thing for years. I record the microscope for every repair but I only do it for the customer. Maybe I should start posting them too.

    I love companies that clearly mark their components and list their datasheets and pinouts. Vishay has always been great at this. ;)
    There are two versions of each of these SiC chips. There is a non-A 5v PWM version and an A version that is 3.3v PWM. Just don't mix A and non-A versions...
    SiC651 - Mouser Part # 78-SIC651CD-T1-GE3 - 5v PWM
    SiC651A - Mouser Part # 78-SIC651ACD-T1-GE3 - 3.3v PWM
    SiC638 - Mouser Part # 78-SIC638CD-T1-GE3 - 5v PWM

    I have the same exact model , and one day suddenly the laptop wasnt power up and no signs from the charging lights either, and after reading some forums about asus laptops not powering up i feared the worse. I mailed asus explaining what happened and their answer was leave the laptop with its charger for more than two hours on , i thought it was a complete bs to be honest , but i didnt had anything to lose before shipping it to their service center , so i plugged it for two hours and it actually worked and the laptop came back to life .

    Hi, Excellent stuff!..
    I have been following your Channel for a while now and enjoy watching you carry out repairs, I really like your work, how you explain your though process and demonstrate what to keep an eye on etc, Illustrating the Practicalities of doing such repairs. However, this particular repair caught my attention as it being an Asus ROG branded Laptop, I did catch a glimpse of the Laptop sporting a Ryzen CPU, albeit this being a Laptop repair is similar to my own, which I have just built a new Ryzen 9 7950X3D on top of the ASUS ROG X670E-E Platform..
    So, as you can imagine this video grabbed my attention more so than your others.. I only wish I knew as much about PCB's/Electronics as you do AND have the confidence to attempt a repair of my own, seeing that I have been building systems for 20 odd years and the number of systems which have basically been thrown away *Most probably* would have been a "Simple" repair job (I say Simple, however I understand its far from simple what you do in practice) This video has most definitely made me rethink what is possible/Cost effective when weighing up what my next steps are whenever I next encounter faulty MOBO/GPU/PSU component/devices.. Anyway, Great repair job & Excellent Content.. Cheers!!

    Honest question: how likely are chips to be damaged by heat during (de)soldering, either with an iron or hot air? Obviously you don't want any more heat than necessary during removal or installation, but I've wondered just how much caution is actually warranted - even when dealing with 30 year-old components.

    • @rizkhan3368
      @rizkhan3368 10 місяців тому +2

      would not recommend soldering Iron for chips, do it as shown by Alex with a quality hot air blower, professional flux and good quality solder as demonstrated by Alex , the temperatures are what are recommended for use on silicon based chips, I used to do this 20 years ago, would have loved to have a shop like Alex , but do other work now, I think Alex has a video on what temperature to use and how to evenly spread the blower at a safe distance.
