amazing video. keep it up. planning to get this exact same card because im on a budget and could only afford this one compared to the more latest 7000 series. was looking for a teardown video, and this was good enough. + got to learn something in the process. ❤
I love my reference rx6800 its been a great card. I was going to replace it this year but it still holds up. I'll probably do a whole new build next year around a different card.
I see this as a problem of PCB layout designers not establishing clear keep-out zones for passives and other components, putting components too close to connectors. Its way too easy for a layperson to damage these.
Hei, i have this exact card, the fan will spin at full speed when the card is plugged in but no display whatsoever. I did a diagnosis like you did in this video, all the components resistance are normal but i find that voltages in vdd memory, 1.8 volts, & core are missing, but the rest is present, can you please tell me what causing it? A very nice & helping video btw, i can't do the diagnosis without this video, thank you very much.
I have a asus tuf rx6800 variant. When on p mode the pc cant detect the gpu, but when i turn the switch to Q mode it works and detected. At first reseating the gpu resolves the problem .
Well with AMD you cannot go wrong with any AIB partner. They are all good. Any GPU AIB GPU with fuses is the safest. Sapphire, XFX, Powercolor are dedicated only for AMD. Asus, MSI and Gigabyte produce AMD and Nvidia GPU's. My last AMD card purchased was an XFX RX6800 XT. The only reason being XFX has a factory retail outlet in Dubai. In the 7000 series Sapphire and Powercolor make sme really cool cards to. It's all down to aesthetics and after sales like warranty support in your region.
Hey, just found your video, I have an RX 6800 xt with this same issue, I have I think 5-6 capacitors missing but the GPU boots up, works fine underload while benchmarking but it runs at pcie4.0 x4 how much would this fix cost for a person? And how difficult is it to do? And how do I know what capacitors I need if I want to replace them, they don't have any namings on them, it's an RX 6800 xt sapphire nitro+ Thanks for the help in advance to anyone reading and writing.
Thank you 😁. Unfortunately the RTX 4060 already uses 2GB modules. Since it uses 128bit memory bus it has only 4 memory slots. Currently 2GB is the highest capacity produced. There is no upgrade path for this card.
This is a customer-made supply. it feeds off the variable bench power supply. this is a design that was borrowed from Tony from northwestrepair. The link to the video is below. ua-cam.com/video/1hQxApHikV0/v-deo.html
I have a rx6800 that works in safe mode, but as soon as i install amd drivers it gives a black screen and it says the drivers are not compatible (in safe mode). Is that likely a hardware issue?
@@GraphicsCardRepairs-tk7ql Not sure if its relevant but in dxdiag it showed it couldn't find my vram in display settings. didn't think much of it, but maybe that's also an indication there's a problem with the memory? I'll have a look at memtunes soon. Also wondering if the 'bake in the oven' method would be a viable option since the card is basically unusable with it's drivers uninstalled.
Bake in the over will be a disaster and certain death for the GPU. The kind of solder used nowadays is not an option. The ovens used for soldering and desoldering are not the kitchen ovens. It's an industrial electronics assembly ovens. It's not the same. Using kitchen ovens will make this GPU dead for sure even if there is any chance left.
HAy Man I Saw Your Video A Just Now The Black screen One And I've Bin Having Same Problem With My Rx 6700 XT But Its Not A Full Black Screen I Can Turn On My Pc And it Bot Up Fine And I Can Do All Normal Task Like Watching Movie All That But As Soon as I Open Up A Game It Gives Me A Black screen And Then I Just Stuck Pc is Still On and i'll Have TO Restart It And Its The Same Shit All OVer Again So can you Help Me Or Its a Gone case And should Think About Buying a new One
This looks like an issue with the core. I don't assume memory as if it was a memory error it would just show you a black screen. The next step is to reball the GPU core. After reball if it still does the same thing or complete black screen , it's time for a replacement.
@@GraphicsCardRepairs-tk7ql Thanks For The Information Appreciate it But i would like To Trouble You Just A Bit More With Asking You How Much Would It Cost Or How Much Should It Cost What's Highest I Should Pay So i don't Go Bankrupt Thanks Again
There is no point buying a new core. It's more expensive than buying a used GPU. In case you happened to buy a working core with a broken PCB that's the only way you can get a working core cheaper. But that's rare.
@@GraphicsCardRepairs-tk7ql No I Meant The Reball Because i Will Have To find Someone Who Can Do IT And Its a 2 hand gpu To Began With Iam Not Gonna Waste Money On IT If In THe end Its Not Even Garneted To Work
While installing it removing from the motherboard or while the GPU is placed on an uneven surface. These are speculation. I knocked off one like this. But to generalise and say it's the same with all would be misleading.
@@wizardry-y3q A backplate does not cover that part of the video card. Anyway I have seen ripped components in places where nobody should be able to knock out components.
Thank you for sharing. I am of a different opinion. Infact all AMD PCBs from all AIB partners are as per the standards set out by AMD. The copper thickness is better than that of Nvidia. For example a Gigabyte or MSI or even Asus producing AMD PCB has a thicker copper layer with a better bond with the substraight compared to PCBs from the same AIB partners for Nvidia. I agree that XFX GPU design is not that appealing to me either. Let me give you some examples. while working on memory errors when i have found broken pads under the memory. On AMD cards the pads on the PCB are intact and more often its the memory pads that break off, but on Nvidia PCBs the pads on PCBs rip off easily with pads on memory as well. I think all AIB partners have to maintain a standard as stated by either Nvidia or AMD.

6800 is a good GPU. 16GB on a 256 bit bus is good bandwidth too. This card will last atleast and year or two easy.
@@GraphicsCardRepairs-tk7ql I ended up doing a whole new build with a rx7800xt lol
PERFECT WORK!

I assume there is a voltage missing but it's difficult to say without diagnosing the GPU.

I have a asus tuf rx6800 variant. When on p mode the pc cant detect the gpu, but when i turn the switch to Q mode it works and detected. At first reseating the gpu resolves the problem .
This looks like an issue with either the switch or the BIOS chip connected to the P mode.
i have exact same card and it has tessellation error, i ran occt test and 3d adaptive is erroring. please tell me what to do. i need help
This could be an error with the core. It's an assumption based on your description. A reball could be tried but I doubt it will get resolved.

You will need a microscope and the skill to do micro soldering.
@GraphicsCardRepairs-tk7ql and for an example how much would it cost to take it to a repair shop?
Hey really like your modifications dude. Can you also do memory increase for rtx 4060 since many people complain about its 8gb memory.

@@GraphicsCardRepairs-tk7ql aah alright that sucks man.Nvidia really stopped ppl from upgrading.

I heard that 6800 has a common problem of core inflation. Is it true?
@@Regis7412 I have not come across any untill now from the volume of 6800 I received. 😁
nice video

Yes it is possibly memory errors. Memtunes would be required to be run.
