What I learned today is if your gpu is working fine, leave it alone. If you want to practice fixing gpus, buy or find dead ones to practice on.

@coc1841 Ай бұрын

I leaned that if my GPU dies, I have to add a zero ohm resistor somewhere.

I opened my brand new card cuz the thermal paste they put is dogshit. I always gonna start opening my cards and applying ptm7950 because it performs drastically better, has more lifetime, doesn't experience pump out like normal thermal paste but most importantly the temps are significantly better.

@@TheRealName7 Also arguably voids your warranty immediately too, so that's also one less thing to worry about. You save time and space since you can immediately throw the receipt and box etc in the garbage, you won't need them for RMA ;-).

@TheRealName7 18 күн бұрын

@@noth606 you know the void warranty stickers are illegal? And actually the government cracked down on gigabyte, asrock and zotac for it. So no, under the law my warranty isn't void if i need to return my card for any issue that happens outside my control they have to accept it and inspect it and prove the damage wasn't caused by user error.

@n3rdware Ай бұрын

Impressive how you got this card back to life! That custom cooler solution is actually developed by me. You're probably right in advising people not to such solutions from your point of view. But I do want to point out that what you mentioned about over-tightening the screws is impossible because the screws are 'shoulder' screws, blocking themselves at the exact required point. This is actually used in most gpu coolers and isn't any different from the original cooler. The 'posts' you mention are just replaced by longer shoulders.

@drewnewby Ай бұрын

@n3rdware You should consider using posts. Shouldered screws can be lost, and replacements can be inaccurate.

@n3rdware Ай бұрын

@@drewnewby Posts require shoulder screws just as well, you can see them after they are unscrewed at 1:20. My screws are almost identical to the original ones, just with a longer shoulder.

@drewnewby Ай бұрын

@n3rdware That's the point, if you use posts, the original spec screws can be used, instead of longer shouldered screws. Replacement coolers should use the same design if at all possible. I assume the cost of the replacement cooler more than covers the manufacturing cost of including posts. Sounds like a cost save on your end.

@n3rdware Ай бұрын

@@drewnewby That's a whole lot of assumptions in just a few sentences. It's actually simple: I prefer not being dependent on third party hardware that I cannot replace myself if required. If my screws are lost, I can replace them. If your original screw is lost, I can't, and Nvidia probably won't.

@drewnewby Ай бұрын

@n3rdware That's fine if you're milling / printing your own solution, but you're selling these. Everyone replacing the stock cooler has the original shouldered screws as spare, if you use posts, instead of what you've sourced. It's no assumption, and common for boutique kit like this to deviate from spec for all the reasons I've mentioned.

They are also out as retail products mostly PNY branded, but I think "PNY" makes both the retail and OEM boards so aside from the sticker/part number there is no difference. Maybe vbios vendor string. Not 100% sure now, but I think all the cards are physically manufactured by the same factory whose name now escapes me, one of their brandnames being PNY but they have others too.

One of my dream cards for small form factor build. Good job. Performance is around the same as a 3060 i believe. Looking at the temps, it doesn't seem to even need that custom cooler.

@mikukumiku Ай бұрын

I followed a video hinted by someone else in the comments, and apparently the custom cooler is made to reduce the footprint of the card since its stock heatsink causes it to occupy two PCI slots. People who buy this custom cooler are apparently using it to make ultra compact PC setups, and reducing it to occupy just a single PCI slot is the goal.

I had to send it in 2 times and the card took 1 month each time to come back to me. (Gainward RTX4080 Phantom). Love the videos btw!

Quadros after they removed the Quadro name are so confusing. I can never remember if this is newer, better or completely different to the RTX A4000... or the RTX 4000 Ada Generation. Maybe it is that last one, I can't remember. I could look it up but ehhh. Of course none of these are to be confused with Quadro RTX 4000 which was a Turing card. Nvidia need to bring Quadro back either way and give the cards proper model numbers.
