How to Use a Heatgun to fix (MANY) dead Graphics Cards...
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 чер 2019
- Today we take a look at the the stack of no longer working GPUs here at Tech YES City, and instead of sticking them in the oven like I have done in the past (...) I am going to try use my fresh new friend the Ozito Hot airgun to start baking these Graphics Card to try to bring them back!
I also talk about potential vBios trolls and a risk that now exists in the Used GPU Market for people buying up cards without the original vbioses on them.... something I found out the hard way :(....
Also if doing this method, make sure to keep the Hot Air Gun's max heating temperature under that of surface heating of 250c just to be safe (and not cook your PCB).

I know there are lots of comments about Louis Rossman and his video, though I have had the second card revived now (although out of quite a few) come back to life. Others have had cards come back to life and last quite a while too, so perhaps there is something else to it....?
Bryan please I’ve been asking for months what is the intro song ??
Who is Rossman? We only know the YES man! 😜
Red Power Ranger - staffan carlen - I wish that I was a madman
No this is temp fix. Don't sell them. They will fail agan...
You can get cards back to life but they are dead again within weeks or months. Please don't promote this and don't sell any of these cards to any poor souls..
i can hear Louis Rossmann swearing and yelling this is not how you fix stuff :D
by CDMC just like he did to Linus, but in Aus where we can’t easily see Louis that’s the option we are left with
@@benjaminargus9563 It's a temporary fix at best. But if you're tight on money and the card is f-ed anyways why not try to heatgun some more month into it.
Literally my exact same though.
@@peterpain6625 correct. Even a complete reballing made by a professional may not be enough.
His swearing and yelling is funny, but Louis is also a very smart guy and explained why this usually doesn't work or only lasts a short time. Heat doesn't just damage the solder balls. The heat expansion and contraction damages the tiny traces inside the processor substrate. The only real fix is preemptive prevention. If your GPU is running over 80C, it's going to have a short life. The hotter your electronics run, the sooner they will die. Turn you fan speed up. We've know how to prevent this damage since 2007 but manufactures insist on having quiet consoles and video cards that run into the 80C's and 90C's. They don't care as long as it lasts through warranty and they want to sell you next years GPU anyway.
Doing this and then selling the card is 'scam', it's a temporary fix at best and therefore not ethical to sell and pass on the card. Ultimately this practice will reduce confidence in the used parts market that you and others love so much.
Exactly. Promote baking cards make used market even worse, because there will be a lot cards that will stop working soon. Because someone try to sell broken parts.
Yeah, his "tech yes lovin" is one thing that would concern me as a buyer, but this is really bad.
Nothing wrong , if you give a warranty , like Bryan does !
Yes i did same thing on phone and it worked for 1month and then died
I baked my broken 780Ti at 130°C half a year ago.. Runs just fine
Gordon Ramsay want his graphics card medium rare
This graphics card is FUCKING RAAAAAW
I’m just imagining a gpu idiot sandwich
and don't forget the lamb sauce....
Extra medium
LOL
Who doesn't love the smell of baked gpu in the morning?!
Everyone love it!!! 😜 😜 😜
Smells like victory...... or not.....
it smells like a ass kick into red and green !
The sweet smell of desperation and failure.
Anyone who has a working GPU up until then. This is why my OC'd 1070 Ti has an aftermarket cooler.
I just wanted to chime in like a lot of the others have regarding the heatgun fix for graphics cards.
A lot of misinformation out there regarding the fix this method actually provides, some would say stuff like it helps to fix micro fractures within the soldering, and throw up these figures about certain temperature that melts solder, etc. which aren't true at all.
Long story short: due to the constant thermal cycling, cards running and being stressed, and then rapidly cooling off after the stress session's over causes thermal cycling, and over time this process causes deterioration of the graphics chip and this can also happen to memory chips. The overall heating procedure just mimics the thermal cycling and can bring the card back to life temporarily. The fix can last for five minutes, or 5 months, depending on the severity of the damage. The best way to fix the card is to replace the faulty chip. And then there are cases where it's not the chip that's actually gone bad, but something else like a bad mosfet, or a bad VRAM chip, etc. issues that could cause the card not to work.
So, heatgunning/oven baking is a temporary solution, and it actually lowers or ruins the chances for a proper repair of the card. What Louis Rossmann said is correct about flip chip BGA repairs, and a lot of dishonest technicians just heats up a bad laptop graphics chip or an XBOX motherboard and gives it a 90 day warranty knowing that it'll likely get by that period, and ruins the chances of having that part properly replaced and getting proper repairs done.
I wouldn't sell the GTX 650. That card will go bad in about a month or two, even sooner if stressed frequently. The best I have seen a cooked/heated card last is a 8800 GT, which was up to 6~7 months after it got out of the oven.
There's a channel called Eli Tech where proper GPU repair is demonstrated, you might want to check out some of his content.
Cheers, and love your content as always.
It's weird though because the last 7870 that I fixed, is still alive to this date...?
As you said it depends on the degree of damage to the components on board, though it usually dies in a few short months after and before selling anything i repaired this way i would do several continuous hours of stress testing. This method goes back a ways, the earliest i remember it personally is the ps3, though i believe it was around before that. It would fix it for a month or so at most.
I heatgun fixed my fat first gen ps3 and it worked for around 2 weeks. Then, i could do anything and would still get ylod when turned on.
@@techyescity well, the RX 570 card you yourself tried to fix is the sheer proof that this method isn't long lasting. I have seen oven baked cards last up to 7 months, then go kapoot again. This isn't a permanent fix by any means.
It can depend, but there is obviously no guarantee using this method as it's unscientific. There is a chance there was a dud solder ball or a crack between solder and pad and the heat gun reflowed it properly, making a permanent fix. But as you said, there is also a chance that isn't the problem and the result is only temporary. I'd only use this method if it was my own card, it was out of warranty and I had nothing else to lose by trying that. That is who this video should be targeted at and I think Bryan probably is targeting it at that person - the budget gamer trying to bring a card back to life vs buying a new one.
this can work, although i recommend you build a structure to support the chips underneath because if you aren't careful they will start falling off. the board isn't thick, it also doesn't have much thermal resistance. so if you melt the solder on one side, pretty good chance you have melted it on the other as well, and while surface tension should keep those little caps and resistors in place, they can fall off in this circumstance, so you want to rig up something to hold the backside in place.
I found this heating up method is very short lived. Been repair hardware for years and in most cases your be lucky to get 3 months. People on Ebay do this and sell the card and some poor sucker buys it thinking its working and it fails over time.
Yeah I agree the only way to realy fix it is to replace the GPO Chip The chip heats up when the Silicon in the gpo cools down it contracts to the Silicon in the GPO chip gets miss aligned. It is expanding and contracting cause by heat that cause the Silicon channels to get misalign

Oven has worked for me two times on the same card. A r9 280x, which ran for 6 months after my first bake. Now runs again, maybe for 6 months more?
I have same palit stormx 1050ti 4gb graphics card after driver install line in display problem without driver working fine any idea what problem?
4:39 - Sapphire doesn't have a repair centre in Taiwan. Unfortunately, I have a Sapphire R9 290 that died out of warranty. They refused to have it repaired at all, even refusing paid repair. Sapphire is from Hong Kong.
Bro add little liquid flux all around the GPU Chip and heat little more till flux totally evaporates. Flux will help in rejoining solder balls faster with less heat.
That is what i do with all ded cards, specially those with artifacts
Also works for the red light of death on old ps3
@@boomwithpeter623 after doing this how long did the cards last...................or they are still running up to now?
but this isnt a problem with balls betwen gpu and pcb but betwen actual gpu and this plate that is "balled" to pcb
That's not a fix, because 99% of the time it is never the solder under the package, but the conncetions to the die inside the package. This is only a temporary fix that kind of remelts the bumps inside, but it will NEVER be permanent, the ONLY way to permanently fix a dead graphics card is to replace the whole GPU, but that is usually not worth it.
Great idea! I have been thinking about trying the Oven trick on a few Video Cards lately but I have a nice Heat Gun too, so to hell with the Oven I am going to give this a try!
hi there if youre there please answer me :/
well the card i own is gtx 770 2 gb msi
it gives faulty display but only after i install the driver so what should i do exactly here
throw it in the oven or try bios / replacing something ?
can you tell me if my graphic card fan spin and it light up but gives no video, does that means my gpu is dead?
With this fault will it give external vga out display? My dell laptop is black screen but gives external display, the lcd and lcd cable are definitely working
I've used a heatgun on 5 gpu's. All 5 came back to life, one only lasted a few months but the others are still going strong.
how about now?
Issue?
tried it on a bricked 1050ti. card was actually properly faulty. probably got repaired already then sold as refurbished lol
Thanks, I've always used the oven method. My vega 64 just died which I was hoping would last until next gen flagships came out. I just hit it with the heat gun and its working again!
@Tech YES City, like to get some advice.
My old R9 270x (a second hand) suddenly started artifacting yesterday, after I had needed to hit reset button in testing Skyrim (?!?) (never had this happen ever before and I dunnow what caused it).
Could the heat gun/oven method perhaps revive the card?
The back story info.
1) running 2 identical monitors oced to 75Hz (CVT reduced blank) and I am familiar with flickering when refresh rates are not in sync. Had that when testing if they could run higher than 60Hz. Needed the reset button a few occasions which never gave issues then.
Also had one application force 60Hz Vsync in it's settings, thus flickering monitors. De-focus (alt-tab or ctrl-alt-del task manager) to desktop alleviated it.
2) yesterday after I had to hit the reset button my R9 270x started artifacting.
It was after testing a fresh Skyrim (modded with HD textures). Did had some odd monitor flickering on desktop, after testing stability up to ' min menu'. But both still ran the correct 75Hz settings.
On starting a 'new game' (final test) resulted in heavy flickering on both monitors and Skyrim becoming seemingly keyboard "unresponsive". So decided to hit the reset button.
3) On boot saw weird artifacts, Windows gave boot errors and only safe mode worked.
So green artifacts (horz or vert) from my MSI bios, to MSI Gaming Win10 boot logo, to desktop elements in safe mode. Reflashed agesa 1004, just in case and in case it was a virus rolled back a full system backup image. Windows still gave boot errors.
Safe mode DDU'd the AMD drivers, installed a old HD5770 card and booted into Windows. No issues, no artifacts!! DDU'd drivers again, reinstalled the 270x: artifacts were back. Windows with default graphics driver, but the system crashed as soon as I went to install AMD graphics drivers.
How 1, 2 and 3 relate to the card dying. Hell I have no clue?!
Have pulled apart (not done that since I got it, temps were always good). THEN noticed a couple VRAM modules/components had weird oily substance on it. So guess some modules never made good contact with the thermal pads and that is was now suddenly caused it to die after 2 years.
Cleaned the card and the few components from the substance, reapplied mx4 put it back together. Still the card gives artifacts.
So now I wonder how dead is it? And could the heatgun/oven method bring it from the brink? Or better to bin it and buy a 5500XT when it is released (was the plan anyway)
Advice is appreciated.
Im having issues flashing bioses into cards :(
As i try to input the command its says command not available or mot working and rom file doesnt exist
oh bro i think my vga card also dead and i cant buy heat gun any other method ??? help plz
Did you check each of the video out adapters on those cards which failed to post, not just the HDMI output ?
My laptop with GTX 1070 on board, will run perfectly when MSHybrid is selected in bios, but in windows I must disable the GTX 1070 or it will bsod randomly. But it works using the Intel 530 integrated. If I put in discrete mode in bios, it will load to a black screen, I'll have to shut off and on, off and on until it finally boots into windows, and then it works perfectly games. If I restart, it still works. If I shut down, there is a chance it doesn't work again. I've tried another AC adapter just to see if makes a difference. Nada. Do you think the GPU is an issue or might be something else? I never get any screen artifacts or anything when it's working. It's a Clevo P650RSG
What product do you use to clean the graphics card pcb? How long do you wait for it to dry off? Thanks.
can u tell me i have issue with my rx570 on load it gives black screen and then crash the game i have done all the thing drivers and that can u tell tell me what the problem with that
I just brought back my son's GPU using the heat gun method and am very happy about it. He has a Zotac Gaming GeForce RTX2070 that was have a severe artifacting problem. I first gave it a thorough cleaning but that didn't work so I decided to try heating it and it worked beautifully. Some new thermal paste and reassembly and now she works like a charm.
How is it working now? Still going strong or?
is it still working?
rtx 2070 is known to have failing video memory sadly. mainly micron fault.
I have RX 470 Powercolor....windows freezes after booting but after a few minutes it functions normally...Is it the same in your end with the PowerColor GPU?
Hey,so my graphics card have the same issue as the sapphire card you have there. Its not been refllowed.
Hi got this gtx760 it will boot up and display have green lines after a seconds it will freeze and black screen. Ive tried to clean it and put it in the sunlight 12PM to heat it up but still no chance of fixing it. Dont have oven and heatgun :(
My son's XFX r9 280 will work just fine when in safe mode but as soon as you install a driver the screen goes blank. It stays on. So does the PC, sound and everything but this card refuses to work with the amd driver running.
4:28 That's right. The repair centres in Taiwan are for their own cards only. They don't repair other brands. So Gigabyte goes with Gigabyte, ASUS to ASUS, MSI to MSI and so on.
I did this but not working when in put gpu in cpu the pc wont start and after removing gpu it works correctly help me please
Hey there B-man! I had a question about cleaning a gpu heatsink!? I bought a used 1080ti and it has minor rust on the heatsink (mined on near the ocean probably in a garage?). Any tips for cleaning off the rust? Gpu runs fine just the rust doesn’t look nice. Thanks in advance 👍🏻✊🏻
So, my Vega 56 decided to die 2 weeks after watercooling it... Black screen when launching benchmarks, white flickering artifacts (no othr display) when trying to launch any game.
Do you think this could help me to bring it back to life, even for a short while? I just want it to last until Navi is released
Hi tech city....
I have a question for you.
So i recently bought an r9 290x seems all good works ect but when I go on to a game or any sort of stressful task it seems to turn the gpu off and the pc stays on I've seen many things saying gpu and many things saying psu....I need help as I dont want to spend 100s more trying to sort out this issue...
Could you shed some light on this?
I've been trying everything to sort this problem out...
As said all runs fine but soon after a games started the gpu turns off longest I've had out of the GPU working is about 3 hours before the gpu turn off:(
So hair dryer is same idea then ? I have two nvidia mxm cards p5200 and p6 Tesla 16gb each leds blinking non stop orange white repeats ! Wtf happened idk !
Did you try every port on each card hdmi, DVI so on? In some cases port can be just dead, burned out or something.
i have my card rx 560 msi it was running v v swipe no issues wid temp or anything then one day pc dosent give display to me just gives 4 beeps then i switched my gpu put my another one then it gave me display on my first try so i think the problem was with card can u help me what should i do with my rx 560 should i do the heating gun method and try it or should i do another thing can u tell me card is

Why did you need the heat gun then ? Bryan lied to us about not being the Jedi Master that we need but rather the Sith Lord that we deserve.
Hi i have XFX RX 480 8GB BLACK EDTION OC used before in mining but it's looks good when i run game it's so hot OVER 80C so i replace thermal paste and thermal pads and it's still run hot so i undervolat it and underclock it and i set fan curve and still run betwen 78-82 that's is not good at all can i fix it with heat treatment like hair dryer? Plz help
i have a faulty gtx 750ti it boots but as soon as the windows logo shows it has green lines and and when u try to install the driver it hangs on that point and after restarting either doesn't go any further the win logo... or even if it gets past the login there is no card details shown in the gpu z... simply like there is no card... will this method can help like is there a chance through this method??? because i would have to buy a heat gun only for trying... please let me know if anyone knows... Thanks... Regards, Fin...
I have a a nitro+ rx470 and i want to try this method to revive it but do I heat the middle chip only or do i heat the whole card? If someone has done this please reply
Would this method fix the broken sensors of a 6950? I got one for free that functions just fine, but the temperature sensor reads -128 and on afterburner shows a long-ass number for the temps, making the fan work at full speed (it's a blower, so it sounds like a jet engine). Its a sapphire toxic radeon HD 6950 dual bios 2gb. Again, it works, but i don't wanna use it and make it worse.
Would like to see a deeper analysis about this "vbios troll" :D
ive had my RX480 for 3 years now and its been chugging along really well it hasnt had any problems yet except gpu issues sometimes very rarely tho
I fixed an old amd laptop’s gpu using this method, but I covered the chip in flux before I started so the solder would have a better chance of flowing properly. Still works to this day surprisingly.
Bryan, if we're heating because of soldering problems, wouldn't it be logical to heat the back of the card?
The chip is surface mounted (not through-hole). So heating the top is the correct method.
@@brendanfarthing thank you didn't know that.
can I use a heating blower instead of a heat gun if ever I don't have one?
I heard you mention the oven method in one of your previous videos. Glad you did this one explaining the madness. Haha

is it a must to put alumunium ball below it when heatgunning?
There's a few others on You Tube that re-ball the solder on the chips- but they use a 'grill' to get the solder in the right spots... Heating the chips apparently only last a few months at best mentioned by Louis Rossman on his channel about a year or so ago...
I suppose getting it to work for a while is better than not having a graphics card at all?
Question, are you starting to see fewer and fewer video cards being offered up that were used for mining or is the supply still very plentiful? Any mining cards that you think are worth taking more of a risk on and any former mining cards you try to avoid? Thanks I really enjoy your videos.
i have tried heat gun method 3 time for 6 to 7 mints but still bad display lines on screen

"I use the Luke Skywalker method" - Tech Yes Legend, love it! :D
The first one freezing and locking up may be due to unstable drivers or an overclock. My vega 8 IGPU did the same after an overclock but it was sorted after I upped the voltage slightly.
I tried this method on my gtx 980ti. Seems to work till this day. What i found that when you're doing this method do not move around the card too much. Let it be still when you're working on it and also let it cool down for hours. Secondly, when you put this graphic card back in position place it vertically. I noticed something over this the heat again loosens it. I dont know if you would agree with me but i found this more helpful.
I think the heat gun would work better than the oven, however both are only temporary as it doesn't address the issues that caused items to desolder in the first place. The connections remain weak and can still crack.

I think you might've used the wrong bios as you had to use the force option. If correct, no -f is required.
Using atiflash to list the GPUs, or on GPU-Z or similar you can see the bios version / card identifier, it needs to match.
I typically save the original bios before flashing new mining bios for this very same reason :)

I haven't custom modded an AMD bios since the HD 6900 series, but can you have someone backup their Sapphire card bios, like you could on Nvidia cards? I have my old Bios backups from the factory for all of my cards that I tweaked. As terrible as some of them were.
Should I buy a used RX 750 from e-bay? Will it be risk for me?

The only way I can imagine this helping is readjusting and setting the solder connections. How else could this help?
YES!! Thank you, i just realized i have a heat gun and been hesitant to try the oven method due to the smell factor, got 3 Quadro 4000 graphics cards lined up for $20NZD that i could attempt this trick on haha just need a single slot card for a potential ITX in the future
Beauty I'm going to give this a go... I don't want to try the oven for the reasons you have given but thankfully I do have a heat gun!!... when reassembling card can i do away with the thermal pads to test incase it doesnt work?
Cool, thanks what temperature is the pre-heat and how long do you pre-heat and what's the maximum temperature estimate?
If the heat gun can put out 50 to 600C heat (when it's one it's at 50C right away it seems), that's a range of 550C, divide that range to 3, then multiply by 2 to get the "2/3 on the way up" which would make it 367C minus 50C coz' we didn't start from 0C, '2/3 on the way up" would finally be at: 317C most likely (it's best to have a temperature sensor). Reflow temperature is between 330C to 400C, it's still within spec but use the Nik Telio method first- conservative first.
God bless, Rev. 21:4
Back in 2005-2012 I played with heat guns to reflow the balls on the Xbox 360 boards. I realized quick the oven method wasn't worthwhile. I also realized that placing the heat gun in the correct places to reflow each problem area, based on googling symptoms, worked about the best when I could track down the problems. I had about an 80% success rate when I knew what the issues were. 50/50 otherwise.
You might have accidentally flashed an LN2 VBIOS with a PLL/MEM/mem controller overvolt that is extremely unsafe unless the chip is under LN2. (not sure which voltages are programmable on that card)
Louis rossmann will not be happy with this video
Whats the ratio of Amd cards breaking Vs Nvidia cards? Every time i watch a gpu fix video Amd cards seem to be in higher numbers broken?!?!?!
Thanks for the video! I was doing some research on my next video and I found your video here (and channel). In case you're curious, I just released a video on some of the why and what on how heat works on some of these chips. I'm not sure about the details on the GPU's on the boards you are working with. Sometimes the problem is inside the chip and other times it's a problem with the solder ball(s) underneath.
What kind of all purpose spray have you use?
As a repair tech, THIS IS NOT A PERMANENT FIX. It can help a dead gpu by adding a few extra months sure, but dont expect to keep using it for years to come.
If the company uploaded the vBios for a price so they could still make a profit would you pay for it? Knowing its the actual vBios?
That card that turn off seems like it is running on a mod bios. Same issue with an rx 570 that came in with a used PC I bought. Had to flash the bios to get it stable again.
Have you tried salvaging or replacing gpu components?
