"Where is my blowtorch" 10/10

This is the kind of content I love. This is the kind of content that made me subscribe so long ago. Please keep doing technical, hands on solutions for hardware/software problems. The way this video was set up was great entertainment and this video is very informative and also entertaining. 10/10, love this video.

How we see JayzTwoCents in this video: *good old pc repair guy* How Robots see JayzTwoCents in this video: *T H E M E D I C*

07:00 Me: GPU were you killed? GPU: Sadly yes... GPU: BUT then i LIVED!

"wanted to show you how to flash bios" "not gonna show how to do it because this is not a tutorial" Logic

10:25 on Windows 10 on any folder. You can click on the address bar and type CMD and the enter. It opens an CMD prompt in the actual folder.

Jay: Briiing out your dead /rings bell GPU: I'm not dead yet! Jay: quiet, you will be soon enough GPU: no really, I feel much better

Alternatively, you can type "cmd" into the address bar within a folder to open command prompt in that folder. Of course, it wouldn't matter in this case since admin privileges were needed.

That is a great sponsor on the video :D I ordered my Sennheiser HD Jubilee 58X from Drop and they have shipped and worked perfectly.

Love you guys a lot! Lot of good information and hilarity to go along with it. Can't wait until the pressurized video comes out hopefully

Phil's laugh is awesome

I'm going to go back to that video and say "it the display port" lol

I love how he looks around and expresses everything naturally during the video Extremely natural

You can still open command prompt in any folder by holding SHIFT while right clicking.

Hey Jay, not that you'll see this but: I'm still running a gtx 770 and you wouldn't wanna know what kind of frankenstein homebrew madness ive done to it to keep it running since 2012/2013. I've used the sciency experiments you've done over the years as a basis for my highly experimental repairs. But im gonna tell you anyway: 1: Homebrew heatpaste involving used/recycled heatpaste mixed with "other stuff" to pad out the used paste.. 3 yrs and still going. 2: Fans literally falling off their mounts/shafts and being glued on with almost everything except actual super glue 2+ years 3: Fan bearings dying so using grease /vegetable oil / lard to grease the shaft on the fans and heve them spinning inside of the dead bearings ~ 2yrs 4. Using deskfans and other various household fans to "assist" with cooling. - experiment failed Ive applied similar homebrew tactics to my CPU paste / cooler fan which gave up the ghost for abit but im happy to report i've had much greater success. the temps are actually still quite good.. considering.. ~70-90c at 100% load. After of all that and despite my best efforts im sad to say GPU temps have been affected "slightly" by my experimentation over the years.. GPU puuurrrrs at 95c for a long time now (years) and probably 100db while at 100% fanspeed but you know what? She's still going strong.. running apex legends at around 50-60fps @1080 almost everyday.. Res evil 2, every battlefield since BF3 and many many other titles.. Everyday i want her to give in to all the punishment and end the torture but she just wont give up. so i must continue with this experiment in the Gtx770's honor :D So heres to YOU and inspiring me to try the things you told us NOT to do and to some degree it actually working! Honest to god, No BS, true story.

10:23 - Hold shift key, right click folder in left window (folder view). Need to be logged in as an administrator for admin cmd prompt.

4 minutes in: congratulations J you fixed it! If only everything could be fixed by just saying you’re going to try and fix it. I had a GTX 970 that had a similar issue. It got hit by lightning and I thought the GPU was dead, but the dvi port I was using was the only issue so I just switch to the second dvi port. Perfectly working GPU.

That water dousing video was one of the most mind easing videos for a new pc builder thank you buddy!

Nice! Can’t wait to see this. I am doing a troubleshooting video on my channel too next week, Titan Xp wasn’t working

Next up: How easy/difficult is it to kill a card with static discharges.

Love the information and stories in this one

Hey jay love your videos keep up the work, if only I was fortunate enough to to be able to check out and review all these items

"You're a big man, you've got lots of wood"

Ya Billy's like "I'm right here" but he's like missing a leg or something

Thank you Jay, thanks to this video i fixed my graphics card on my laptop, I corrupted the graphics card bios while repasting by shorting the motherboard while reasembling it and it only worked with 388 nvidia driver from windows,couldn't install a new driver at all. Reflashing the bios fixed all my problems.

you can still open cmd on the folder itself. just click onto the file path (C:\Users\Public....) so that is is highlighted in blue and type in "cmd"

*Phil* "Dont put that evil on me Ricky Bobby"

Sweet, first part for my build is a Jay fix it job. 😂

Awesome content! Thank you Jay!

Quick command-line tip: for long filenames, you can type in the first few letters and then press and it'll fill in the rest of the filename. If you have multiple files starting with the same letters, then press to cycle through them to find the one you want.

"Uploaded 1 second ago" *It's my time to shine*

I’m loving it. The cup in the background made me go get McDonald’s

love your videos jay there so informative and funny too top stuff

Watching you type that out actually made me cry Jay. For everyone, in windows 10, you can drag and drop a file, and it will paste the file location/name into command prompt

Can’t be bothered recording another sponsor advert, screw it we’ll just redo the audio. They won’t notice it’s old massdrop branding on the box 😂

I see jay wearing floatplane but still not on it! Take our 💰 instead of ads

Love your vids man, very entertaining

Thanks guys. This made me go and fix a nagging problem I've been having for monts. A Zotac 1080 TI Mini with an accelero Twin Turbo installed on it. Problem is, the fan wouldn't go below 44% in idle. Flashed it to an EVGA model (using that handy -6 switch) and I can now lower the fan speed to 0RPM if need be. But I'll be keeping it at 20% until the card hits 50C as recommended by Arctic. Thanks again for reminding me how easy it is to fix things if you do your research!

"aluminumimimunumumm" --Jay 2019

I am so jealous. I'm still tryna save up for a 470 and r3

That ZL1 background is 11/10. Dream car

Thanks for all the tips Jay I'm new to computers and ur vids help a LOT can you do video on the differences between qualities of a gaming CPU vs an editing or streaming cpu

i'm about to get a new pc soon so i'm real hyped

Damn Jay has lost a LOT of weight, Well done man

I've worked on a lot of non-typical electronics, some of which had the potential to get wet. Our standard when it happened was to blow it off with pressurized air, and let it dry for 24 hours. Realistically, 8 is probably fine, but we aired on the side of caution. Of course, be careful with how much pressure there is to the air if the component has smaller parts that may be damaged.

Phil's laugh always gets me. It's so contagious.

"nobody should be running 32 bit in 2019" Me: :laughs: yeah, I totally don't run 32 bit..

I have a demon core. Does anyone have a flat headed screw driver? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I also had a similar thing happen. I put new thermal paste on a 1060 6gb and it worked for a while but then the screen went black and the fans went to full speed. I had remaining alcohol that was under the gpu chip. Disassembled it, put it back together, let it set in a rig and it came back to life. Works fine as a gaming card now.

Thanks for walking us through your Soldier Analogy Jay!

Probably i will wash my rtx next time so the dust will go out haha🤣

I just finished watching the original 😭

10:24 You can do "Shift" + right click，run command prompt/windows powershell from here.

you can go in to the location bar(Ctrl+L) and type "cmd" and press enter to launch command prompt in the current directory. another way of doing it is use the file menu and select open command prompt/PowerShell in current directory.

Glad you did this mess to that poor Card, a while ago my Loop decided to crap a huge Spliff on my GPU and killed it. ( A bad Mix between not tight enough hardtubing and CPU Block getting a lot of heat because the stupid EK Loop Connect decided to give up before i started Gaming) Then i remembered you talking about corrupted BIOS in this Video and thats actually was the fault on mine and saved it, Still running like a champ.

@JayzTwoCents - hold shift, do right click. You'll be offered the option to open Powershell/command prompt there. Also you can use the Tab key to autocomplete in Command/Powershell ;)

have a long standing interest in becoming a self made "pre builder" to sell as my own pc's. and you my friend just gave me the greatest name ever to call my systems

Shift right click in file explorer or type cmd then enter in the file explorer address bar. You don't have to type out full filename in command prompt either. Just type first few letters of filename then press tab to autocomplete. Cycle through choices if you have similar names by pressing tab again etc.

I said you should clean it with distilled water and let it dry. Those spray bottles very likely contain salts and soaps which will turn into salts. Letting those be drained away with distilled water will very likely fix the issue. Since you narrowed it down to the second DP port it would likely only need to be done to that area. The thing is tho I personally would not do that unless I absolutely needed that second DP port. Good video. Nice to see it back.

@JayzTwoCents If you don't mind powershell, just hold shift and right click into a directory and you will get option to run a powershell window starting in that directory. I'm also 100% sure there is a way to change to cmd if you want. Cheers.

Jay! You can run command prompt at the current directory still! Just instead of right clicking, type “cmd” in the file address bar and hit enter. It opens the command prompt at your current directory.

Odds are pretty good that the traces to the dp have been damaged due to a bit of electrolysis. I'd pull the cover and sink off and see if any of the traces have been damaged it only takes a couple seconds for damage to occur when you've got electricity and liquids together none of that is necessarily permanent just hard to repair.

if you bricked your bios, you can, on a very technical level, manually write the flash by attaching it to an external, appropriate eprom writer. Typically you short a reset pin to ground while the chip is powered and then write the flash. I think most bios chips are 6-pin. This would result in using SPI (Serial Programmable Interface). The only thing left to get the tech docs that state the memory locations/headers to write to.

Jay, to open CMD in that directory, click in the address bar, type CMD, and press enter. Alternatively, you can drag and drop files into CMD to run them.

More of this kind of content, please!

@Jay Two things bud: You still can run command prompt (or power shell, depending on your settings) by holding shift and right clicking on empty space within the directory. Also, the file name does not matter, you could have just typed the first few letters of the file name and got cmdprmpt or posh to complete the file name by hitting tab :)

There are some resistors on the card that make up the hardware PCI-e ID number that is presented at hardware level. You used to be able to mod these thing to get e.g. an nVidia Grid card to show up as a Tesla, then flashing the Tesla BIOS on to the EEPROM was not hindered by ID mismatch between hardware and BIOS revision. I think it's a lot more complicated, or at least undocumented as of right now from the 10 series and up.

Man I'm exited for that next video

Ayy I actually have had those headphones that you sponsored for 2 years now, they're great.

Actually corrosion is pretty likely depending on what was shorted. If a high power track shorted to a low power one on the port there might have been an arc that corroded the contact points instantly and then left a bunch of oxide that is still potentially shorting which may manifest in the card blanking when going to higher bandwidth modes such as higher resolution of booting into windows.

lol loved the video jay. Long story short this happened to me years ago with an ATI 6800 card and I just said eff it and tossed it in the dish washer with a cup of vinegar and the card came back to life including the bad port. I did this 4 years ago and I am still using the ATI 6800 card to this day on my old socket 1366 server.

10:25 , hold shift + right click in the folder to add those options to the right click menu

10:29 You could do SHIFT+Right Click, than it shows you to open power shell.

Earlier today I watched a video from a few years ago where you fixed a GPU you had gotten as a media sample and now you uploaded a video of you fixing another GPU today. Not entirely coincidental but still cool

just type cmd in the path bar of explorer, or hold down shift and then right click, it's powershell there but they're very similar

Reminds me of the scene off Monty Python and the Holy Grail, in the town when they are going "Bring out your Dead", and the family is trying to get rid of the old man, and he is "IM NOT DEAD YET"

10:33 You can type cmd into the address-bar in windows explorer. It will open it in the current directory. This works with the powershell too. This only works if you don't need admin-rights.

In W10 you can launch PowerShell in the folder instead of command line from the context menu, you just have to hold Shift while right clicking.

Here's a tip. Windows Command Prompt (and PowerShell too) will autocomplete filenames and paths when you hit tab. If there are multiple files that match what you typed, you can keep hitting tab to cycle through them.

Wow,nice experiment, it's rly surprising.

take it apart and check the pcb for damaged Solder mounted components whichever leads the traces to the output port of the one that keeps black screening.

It's Alive! That sounds like a 1950's horror/sci-fi flick title. Good stuff!

You can open a command prompt from the 'File' menu in explorer or you can click where you enter the folder path and type "cmd"

You should revisit the card couple of months later to see if any corrosion develops. Also you could put it under load over that time to simulate it being used (or have somebody actually use it), to see if it would expedite any corrosion-caused issues.

WOW.. I Want To See That Video..... The one That Lead To The Blew Into Fitting & 3' Screw Stuck in The Trash Can ! Hell I Would Probly Pay To See That One..lol.

Jay someone needs to show you tab completion in the command prompt as well as PowerShell. Also there is an easy way to open the cmd prompt to a specific folder. Simply locate your folder in Windows explorer and in the address bar select everything and type cmd and press enter. It will open to that location BUT does not allow you to select run as administrator.

Try to put some (a lot of) Flux on the card and heat it up with a heatgun to clean the card of possible corrosion. Learned this from Louis Rossman. Alternatively, I've also cleaned cards by using a soft toothbrush and dishwashing liquid soap. Revived some cards this way.

I like the new cold opens where you just say "This is my computer" or "RAM"

Video Idea Do some control test with a few of the same motherboards and CPUs even with water droplets. Try to find where water will kill the board immediately if it makes contact and in areas that the water does not kills the board immediately, let the water sit for maybe 20 minutes to 40 minutes for a test of if your loop is leaking how long do you have to spot it.

12:30 - well you did drop the card off it's precarious mount a couple of times so it's possible that's what damaged the port and not the liquids. I think you should be adding this to the hall of heroes for being one tough S.O.B.

10:26 You can still do "Open command prompt here" if you Shift+RightClick

I have so much to learn. I get caught in the You Tube black hole of computer knowledge for hours!

Hi Jay, This is a follow up to my last comment. I realized after I sent the comment that it only works on the root drive and not other drives. So if you replace "cmd.exe /T:1e /k CD %1" with "cmd.exe /T:1e /k pushd %L" it will work for other drives on the system as well including USB drives. Mapped NAS drives don't work with this until you use it on the Network drive first. Then the mapped drives work as well. It's pretty sweet actually. Have a great day. Brad

Just a heads up, you can open cmd in a folder. It's under "File" and there will be a "Open Command" or "Open PowerShell"

Back in the old days I flashed a 5900XT with a 5900 Ultra BIOS and it ran beautifully. At max load the card reached a max of 100 degrees celsius, but no thermal throttling mind you. Also, you have autocomplete in CMD using the TAB-key.

Yea new vid! I was hoping you would try to fix it

If you need to quickly open CMD to a directory that you are currently in, just type 'cmd' into the navigation bat at the top of the Explorer window. That trick has saved me many precious seconds 👌

There's a usb device that china sells that allows you to clip a cable and socket onto an eprom chip that is still soldered onto a board. The software is not very intuitive, but you can reflash the eprom to the chip from the command window it opens. Might be abit late to mention but you might be able to save that other card with it.
