yeah men i have watched every single video here

You still arguing about repair fee.. Oh my god.. But atleast right here as I client I can see time spent (20 minute is alot) and then I can pay you 10 or 20 bucks for good time and trial, Or wait for a full fix then.

Very good habit to have when communicating. Airlines do this often transmitting and repeat as a copy verification.

I didn't acknowledge the power of this until you pointed it out! Thank you, thank you. 😉👍

Just to clear things up, he is not "sacrificing to entertain us", yes his channel is educational and informative, but it also acts like a secondary source of income to him.

@@amrdaking1 not only that.. 90+% of his business he probably has because of his youtube channel.

@@amrdaking1 Does that somehow mean he isn't sacrificing time he could be doing anything else with?

What's the most common thing to fail on the laptops you get to repair?

Probably just have to get more experience before you work on it then.

@@zockerbude2585 dead caps and dead chipset

@@ortegafresn I do have quite a bit of experience, but people usually bring me the ones who have already been messed with quite a bit

@@geovani60624 Thanks for your answer. :)

thats a disaster waiting to happen🙂

@@godfreycarino2808 he said he fix it

if you're a repair guy you know what I mean

@@godfreycarino2808 I know, but when he said "i could fix my 1070" doesn't that mean he already fix it?

My daily use laptop is an i7 from 2015. Works like new. Backup i5 laptop is from 2012. Backup backup Core 2 Duo laptop is so old, I don't know how old it is. All three have memory maxed out, SSDs, and recent batteries. All three work like new or better. Just have to take care of them and not abuse.

that's a capacitor, unless you are refering to something that it's not pcp24 (the one with 330 marking)

thats a 330uf tantalum smd capacitor...

Yea that one. I slowed down playback, may just be dirty.

what does alw stand for?

Alw stand for always voltages which are present on the board.

Most laptop power supplies will crowbar (protect mode - no DC output) as soon as too much current flows into the load (laptop), making them useless in providing continuous power during an impossible load (short circuit). Fred

Isn't the battery there just to keep time?

Penso a reflash the bios x last chance

Thanks for the info..I am not sure I can trust you , but it's always good to have that in mind..(But I trust you)

Trust him..

That’s weird, mine blade stealth 13 still working fine…from 2018 ish…(i bought it second hand in 2019 early and seller said he used it for couple of months) been heavy use it till today. Not like it all fluent, i had replace battery one in 2021. But other than that no, i never counter any problem. And i thought razer only bad for value and customer service. Because their hardware seem very legit… to the point i bought new entry razer blade pro 17 2021 model. I couldn’t say my impression on them are all good, their peripherals i own in the past and the present seem worn out very fast. Include my stealth…the cheekrest all fade out color. Your comment kinda concern me about my blade pro 17. I paid quite a lot for that baby, hope that isn’t as bad as you said.

💯✅

This applies for Acer brand too. Worst customer service in all the major brands, and will use every single cheap parts they can to make it work just for the warranty time and break after. If it breaks before the warranty ends ? Mehh each components cost them pennies so they will change them, once you send them back your laptop for over 9 weeks, and will return it to you fixed. But it will break again and it won't be under warranty anymore. Companies are scums abusing idiots. And idiots are buying anything scums does just because of marketing. Slap a banner saying FASTER THAN LIGHT and boom you just sold 10k units. People are dumb. Companies know that.

Mounted under the desk seems like a solid idea, despite not being able to always see the button you're hitting. I'd guess you'd get used to doing it by feel though.

Excellemt , so aside from havng this verified on thermal, what would be a normal resistance or diode mode (voltage drop) on usb2.0 or 3.1 lines

No its not,the flux isnt conductive

check your display connector, either motherboard or the lcd itselft, check if 19V present

naeem youre not looking properly i know of a couple of people here in the uk with just as much knowledge as alex ...alex is excellent i grant you that my friend

I think Asus laptops are the most popular laptops sold, which in turn could attribute to volume of them needing repairs

Asus at the top base on his all repairs, 2nd was hp particular on spectres, then dell then th least most was alienware, lenovo and razers..

@@kevinmagsy0312 Why Asus tho? What is it that they do which causes failures?

@@gamersanditparadise in my guess they might not be sourcing their components from good suppliers. It could be also that their thermal management is not good.

I've had my 600$ Asus Laptop completely dead for over a year now. I have never experienced this with any other brnd

I had exact same question come up in my mind watching this vid!

generally the solder mask (green paint) on the PCB does a really good job at repelling the solder. Couple that with enough flux and the surface tension of the molten solder will prevent bridging across

Soldermask has enough thickness that solder doesn't stay on it, surface tension does the rest.

The inner pad is ground on a QFN package. Thats why the area is so big

Pressing down to squeeze out the excessive solder ensures it doesn’t bridge the pads under the chip.
