Dang, he got some balls to do this

Such patience to reball a core by hand, it still blows my mind you're doing this after watching you for 6 months. Good job!

No stencil? He indeed has some balls.

Reballing without a stencil is mad respect

I stumbled upon your channel by chance, and I must say, I was blown away by the incredible skills you possess in repairing video cards! Watching you diagnose and fix these high-complexity chips with such precision and expertise felt like witnessing a true artist at work. It's mesmerizing to see the level of care and dedication you put into each repair, (the landfill delima), turning what might have been discarded GPUs into fully functional masterpieces. In today's fast-paced world, it's unfortunately common for many to just throw away electronic devices when they encounter issues, contributing to the "throw it away" society. But you, sir, are making a significant difference. By providing a place for people to get their GPUs repaired, you're not just saving these valuable components from ending up in landfills, but you're also promoting sustainability and a more thoughtful approach to technology. Your passion for what you do and the way you value the importance of giving these GPUs a second chance speak volumes about your good character. It's evident that you genuinely care about helping others and making a positive impact in the tech community and gamers lol. People like you inspire hope for a better, more conscious future, and I'm grateful to have come across your channel. Keep up the fantastic work, and please continue sharing your incredible talent with the world. We need more individuals like you, who remind us that repairing and repurposing can be just as awe-inspiring as creating something new. To quote another U-Tuber AvE, "MORE STUFF FOR THE LANDFILL!" Not here!

NWR. Please don't think of yourself as a "Technician with NO LIFE" even in fun - negativity begets negativity. If you don't want it then don't make it a thing, simplez! I'm pretty sure you're above that. What you show on this channel far exceeds what you seemingly think your impact is on this slice of a KZfaq/Industry speciality. We are lucky to know you!

I can feel the pain from all over here. Thanks for showing the great work you do.

You just know there is something wrong with you when watching a high speed manual reball video gives you an intoxicating sense of satisfaction :) As an IT professional with OCD that never backs down from a challenge I really appreciate what you are doing here!!

I like that you're making the videos more artistic. It's a nice change of pace and also it was cool to see your workspace in full.

I still think it is insane that you do this at all. This is basically art.

Your patience and dedication are truly inspiring :o

Beautiful work sir

note: this video is not sped up, this guys is that much a pro, he is that fast.

Admire the time spent on doing the reball. Thanks for sharing

You sir, are an ARTIST!

It's very satisfying after seeing the positive results in every repair.

This is impressive. Nice work.

I've to say, this guy has really good hand-eye coordination. If I was doing that, I'd take it 10x more time at least.

Manually recalling a 390 core, damn. I personally bought a little ptc preheater to heat to whole core to around 120C, using my heatgun alone I often saw problems with the balls flying away etc.

Meanwhile over at Northridge Fix: "OK so the GPU is dead we're gonna send this card back to the customer".

Damn bro, respect for this hard work

dont ever stop doing what your are doing..

I love building computers have been since I was 13 I'm 37 now. but I don't have the patience for all this. Mad props man

Thank you for ur work. Louis Rossmann sparked my interest in board repair videos and your videos are very calm and relaxing. I appreciate your work and admire your patience.

Imagine sneezing after you just put the last ball

This is amazing, thank you for uploading these to KZfaq, I hope it brings you a lot of business!

I thought you were gonna say *Technician with steady hands*🤣

These Videos are Fucking Art!

Good job mate

Your hard work is being noticed, your KZfaq Channel is growing friend, endure. We all suffer, it is in the end not for nothing.

Your sense of humor is on point, Tony. 😂

Your videos are paying off. 3k more subs!

I am glad i’m not the only crazy person which reballs without a stencil :)))

Dude. You rock hardcore.

I like how when he heats the socket, when they reach whatever temperature they all just slide perfectly into place.

well done!

High end of professionalism Edge attention to details best Master ever!

Dude you have patients of a saint to do that Amazing

dude! you earned my respect and a subscribe. hands down for your patience

That was painful, even in fast mode!👍

Very impressive. Thank you for another informative upload.

they absolute hell of this kind of thing makes me glad i didnt go down this route and just did a general technician and computer hardware specialist. But maybe it can be relaxing as you do it 4000x in a few hours and it fails to boot :D

This guy is a baller.

Just the thought of messing this up by accident is giving me anxiety. 0:17 I wish things get better for you soon.

What an absolute mad lad

I am a hard man to impress but this impressed me hugely NWR

He must have gotten those stencils I see in all his videos since this time.

Nice work and dedication placing that many balls

And patience... I do hope you get things sorted soon.

Music has a nice groove.

This takes alot of balls

Excellent video. I just wish you didn’t fast forward the part where they start to melt and align themselves, it’s the most satisfying part of this whole process.

hope the bill pays the intensive labor xD . question here. how you choose the right size of the balls that fit into the pads? having stencils is great because you have the reference balls size and placement, if you don't have one then have no idea what balls size would perfectly fit there

And then the customer: "Free!?"

This is also in a way an escape from depression if you view it in a fun way but after a while it does become very tedious at that point you need a break

Compared to those Smartphone SOCs, I'd say it's "tedious" rather than "hard"... A shake in hand will ruin a lot of work... But why don't use steel stencil? Is it a 4090 or something (too new to have a stencil available)?

You have so much patience

I think you should put out a tutorial series on how to fix a GPU from the simple (cleaning) to complex (reballing, etc.). Release a trailer and make it somehow PPV and I would happily pay money for that. Cheers!

I'd move 3 out of position every time I position 1 correctly. 😂😂😂

1. How long did it take you to finish placing the balls? I saw you looking at the watch, but I don't know when you started. 2. What is at 3:48? Is it an Ultrasonic Cleaner? Can you share the link? 3. Did the GPU work? Thanks for the great video

Awesome video

My heart felt pain watching this video. There has to be some way of acquiring stencil, maybe 3D print one, I don't know....

Even us as technicians suffer alot from mental depression

Do you do motherboard socket replacement? How much is it to do a LGA 1700 socket?

he's got a very lot of patience on this one 👌👌👌👌👍👍👍👍

I need to make a Timestamp cut of these videos just in the Ambient Techno scenes and keep it on shuffle to display on my 65" monitor

That's incredible. you would be a god in any mad max situation being able to breathe life into broke electronics like that.

Sitting here like, "Yeah, yeah...spread them balls around."

I guess it's not practical to have a stencil for every chip out there? That is incredible patience.

Holy moly macaroni! You are aligning those balls by hand?!

Someone should make this man some stencils.

He got the balls of lead!

0:18 relatable

Love the opening with If I had a chicken

Reballing without a template is next level dedication.

You know they have templates for this that hold the balls in place? They're like $2 each and you can even get them in packs that range from CPUs to GPUs made in the last 15 years. It's like a few thousand tiny plates lol

Amazing! What is the music? It puts me into a trance.

i would do this once, it wouldn't boot, and i'd cry myself to sleep

Amazing.

You missed one!! Seriously, dude, how many times do you check and recheck those?? Are there not stencils available for some, and you have to do them by hand like this?? I can't imagine having the patience, let alone the fine motor skills, to accomplish something like this. How many times has your cat jumped up on your desk and sent them scattering?? Is the cat still alive??? Ridiculously incredible technique you have. Thanks for sharing this!

Hey cmon now, don't say that, I know maybe that was a joke but it felt ... real, the no life paper thingy You inspire me a lot, and you are doing a great thing for the world. I know it doesn't do anything for you, but if we could meet irl, I'd be honored to be your friend. I'd love to hear the stories you have fixing parts, explain to me what is what, and teach me, sensei! Please value yourself a little bit more :) Thank you for all the hard work you do! I didn't know reballing cores was this manual, so much patience and steady hand required! I assumed you used the mask thingies for these like for the memory chips too!

This looks like fun although I'm not sure what you're doing. I have taken apart a GPU before and I also built my current PC but I want to do this it looks fun

This is amazing to watch

The absolute madman.

Applause 👏👏

I wish I had your skills dude!

Well he ballsed that chip right up!! Wait....

1 minute in, and that gpu would have been flying out of window. Patience of a 1000 year old tree you have. With Precision of the kings A/O MMM.😅😮

NICE (re)BALLZ!

Wow you really got balls posting this, lmao. Thanks for the video

You need a magnifying headband to do it with a microscope?

You forgot to put the 5.000 dollars microscope and 30.000 dollars re-flow machine in the tools needed list :D

Your a machine... Respect 💪

that's a lot of balls to roll 😂

🤣😂😆 hahaha kinda hits home for me for the "technician with no life" thingy... xD

Amazing work! Are you using the silkscreen as your alignment reference? And you did jiggle it at the end a little right?... presumably to persuade any stubborn balls to make contact? Sorry for the 20 questions (particularly if this is covered in another video) - just making sure I picked up all the tips.

beautyful!

Can you use a hot air station to put the core back?

You rock!

Harder than reballing memory, easier than going an entire video with commentary that doesn't trash talk another KZfaqr 😂
