In my first video i decided to upload a thorough guide of step by step reballing a gpu (xbox 360 slim xcgpu).
Reballing is the process of replacing old solder joints among bga and board with new ones restoring the connectivity between them.
The information in this video is the result of many ( failed ) attempts to reball using the instructions i found around the internet.
I checked a lot of tools ( heatguns , air rework stations , infrared lamps )
materials ( flux , insulation materials , soldering balls ) and i believe i have managed to find a way to increase my , and hopefully your , chances to complete this challenging repair.
So far i have fixed 4 out of 5 xboxes and two laptop gpus!!
Reballing is a time consuming procedure that needs a lot of patience and attention to detail.
The "thermal profile" (not really a profile) that i use in my video has served me well for reballing xbox 360 slim gpu . Every chip has different thermal tolerance ( gpu , memory chips , hdmi chips) so it would be best to look around for the proper temperatures to avoid damaging your board beyond repair.
Thank you for your time!!
