Have you had any terrifying stories of repasting GPU's?

@Leonin0 2 года назад

Fortunally not yet

@willmechanic5609 2 года назад

Any way to message you?

@Reboot7080 2 года назад

There is an Asus GTX 680 of my sister that was on its last legs and had system instabilities under Windows. It was my first time trying liquid metal thermal paste for a repaste, but I was not careful enough with it and ended up spilling on the board. I was impatient, and used too much force on the tube trying to get the liquid metal out of it, potentially shorting components on the board. Thankfully I had a spare GPU I put in her system as backup, and we had given up on her older card anyway.

Thank you so much for this video! It showed up when i was searching for a (gigabyte) vega 56 disassembly since i want to repaste it and replace its thermal pads. Your insight has helped me be cautious over flip-chip microprocessor packages. I had no idea that the substrate can be exposed, and just like you i was planning on cleaning off all thermal paste. Thanks again so much. You're potentially saving my card this way!

@sgtjarhead99 9 месяцев назад

Really glad I've come across this video. I've repasted my Vega 64 a few times already and so far, have dodged a bullet. Never knew this is how they mounted the GPU on this card. I do have MSI built one so I guess that helped.

@COLD1Dadi 2 года назад

Thank you for the informative video. I didn't know about the possible exposed interposer.

@LeoElektronik 2 года назад

Very sorry to hear ! But to me you did everything right. I personally also like to clean the whole GPU die of the old paste and I would use a Q-tip soaked in 99% alcohol. From what I have seen only the 56 have the exposed interposer while the 64 have the protective glue. Maybe just bad luck ? 😬

@Kostas_Sifakis 2 года назад

I do the same Q-tip and alcohol, I never dmg any of them. 1 of my 5 vega 64s interposer is exposed. Still usuful info though didn't knew I could kill it like this xD

@Mr.X_Dj_Arrow 2 года назад

That's really useful to know👌, thanks for sharing this one 👍A closer look at the gpu showing that layer would have been really nice 😶 hope you get better soon, take care 🖖

@jaminallen3119 10 месяцев назад

Great advice. Thanks. You know your stuff!👌

@slipkn67 2 года назад

Thank you! I'm building 8 vega rig on waterblocks. With this new info no way I'm touching that underchip thing, will leave the old paste around the chips.

@joshuascholar3220 Месяц назад

Is it safe to put kapton tape over the interposer? I'm thinking of repasting an MI 50 32gb (that's like a datacenter version of a Radeon VII) but instead of paste, those use graphite pads that are conductive. Now because the pads are conductive they probably potted the chip, but just in case they didn't I was wondering.

@tancakar8987 9 месяцев назад

amazing video ! how do we stop these amd cards like Radeon VII to die on us? is it the heat or temperuture changes? how do we baby these cards?

@rondy87 2 года назад

Straight knowledge 🔥🔥🔥🔥

@DariusFrost 2 года назад

Haha love it! I appreciate that information for sure tho!

@shaka17 2 года назад

good video, any know if MSI have resin? thanks a lot

@jakubjanicki9148 8 месяцев назад

You have just saved my mi25 even though i dont have it yet. Thank you!

@poyraz8368 2 года назад

Thank you so much for sharing this. I will not touch my vega 56 until it reaches very high temps.

@D8V1Dx 2 года назад

The core and the HBM are also uneven on these GPUs. The HBM is slightly lower, make sure to put more thermal paste on lower portion.

@jonathankelt1938 Месяц назад

As you have so much experience with this GPU, maybe you can answer me a question: Is ok to "repaste" the Sapphire Vega 56 Pulse with normal thermal paste? Somewhere I read, you have to use a thermal pad because the CPU die and the two HBM dies are not 100% equal leval. Greez Jo

@mohamedragaa3326 2 года назад

Hello Dear ... Can you tell me what is max Temp for HBM2 Memory to be on safe

@blackmennewstyle 2 года назад

Since VEGA 54 & 64 share HBM2 VRAM just like the Radeon VII, does it also apply to the Radeon VII? Why are you using a metallic object instead of Q-tip with alcohol anyway for removing the old paste in the corners? Asking for troubles in first place lol Have a great weekend and keep on mining

@toastedphantom3007 Год назад

The interposer is fragile enough to be damaged even by a Q-tip. It's exposed silicon circuitry which is extremely fragile.

@yanagida_01 8 месяцев назад

goddamn they really left the interposer exposed like that?! it's as if they want it to be disposable after one repaste😂 it's a good thing I found this video first! I found a seller on a whack ton of MSI Air Boost Vega 56's for like $80, they'll also sell it for $60 if you buy wholesale. let's hope these MSI models have the epoxy on the interposer.

@bruhmandude555 2 года назад

are the hfx cards alsolike this?

@michaelbotha9500 Год назад

Thanks Bud, I would fucked up my Vega64 about 5min ago if it wasn't for this video.

@namelesssnitchy Год назад

What about the Sapphire pulse edition?

@bebop8386 2 года назад

Hello, and what happens when they are connected? totally dead? there was just no video? I got a defective vega 56 practically given away and I would like to discard this thanks

@toastedphantom3007 Год назад

It really depends where it got damaged an how much. Some won't turn on, some will artifact like crazy and others will idle just fine but crash under, like, 5% load.

@RobertJohanssonRBImGuy Год назад

My msi air boost was protected as far I know when I had to repaste due to replacing the cooler.

@user-ei3wo3ht9i 4 месяца назад

Unfortunately, I recently scratched this core, but it was the mirror on top that was scratched. To be more precise, it was a crack of less than 1mm.

*Watching this video, I thought you were going to put new GPU cores on the Vega 56's!*

@Arek_R. 2 года назад

I would very likely go around with metal tweezers to clean all those gaps, would destroy it as well for sure. Usually delicate stuff like that is potted, very poor of AMD not to do that themselves.

@cristianr9168 2 года назад

I just had a look at my sapphire vega 64 dies and they dont have exposed interposers luckily : )

@MrBillybathgate5 2 года назад

Thanks buddy

@TroyHallBear 2 года назад

maybe put some epoxy on the interposer so you CANT paste it?

@markwillplay Год назад

At least I only did one strangest part was it worked for a few hours after then just randomly turned off and wouldn't come back on.

@user-dn5bx2iu3e 2 года назад

Neat.

@throbinwood9911 7 месяцев назад

@KPGuitarStudios 2 года назад

I’m guessing to fix it would involve replacing the main processor? Is it even possible to get those separate from your experience?

@cristianr9168 2 года назад

such a shame to see two vegas go. lessons learned

@samgee500 Год назад

I genuinely thought that was a layer of copper PROTECTING the interposer. I just assumed they would never be exposed like that. RIP Vega 💀

@kireyeve3767 2 года назад

me getting this after my vega 56 is gone already. and thinking back dam how did i not kill it when I repasted it.

@ChineseNinjaWarrior 2 месяца назад

northwest repair might fix them

@BigFarm_ah365 11 месяцев назад

Well, I found this video about 12 hours too late. It's a Red Devil 64 that just started misbehaving, first teardown. It started the moment I was considering looking into a new build. The 7xxx aren't playing nice in VR, Nvidia are rather full of themselves at the moment, but the community updated drivers for my Nitro Fury have it performing better than Vega for most of the last year

@Pro4TLZZ 2 года назад

Now I never wanna take my Vega 64 apart again

By vega 64 has the epoxy protecting the circuit

@JZ_64 2 года назад

ohh dang, very exposed. Wonder why they didn't protect it more =\ Maybe its on purpose? Love the repurpose of the chips! looks killer @mad electron Engineering!

@ramushsteinuts9318 2 года назад

if it is working do not fix it.. mine has a real good air flow.. memory 71c and gpu 70c at most . always on saver mode. 2560x1080p aiming 75hz. optimizing if not possible always above 60fps. do not play online. i know the air flow is great cause when i stop a game like watch dogs legions. 1 minitue is enough for the temps go lower than 50c. but man great information. no touch pads. nice. i really had no ideia it is like that . mine is a sapphire vega 56. tnx keep the good work

@andrewrice2390 2 года назад

Dude, there's a good chance I owe you 600 bucks. I have a Vega 56 waiting in line to be repasted and I would have gone to town with an alcohol wipe on that old paste. Now I'm going to put bigger fans on instead, and not dare to ever touch the die.

@ramushsteinuts9318 2 года назад

leave your case full open or at leas to top cover full open .. i put a exaust fan right over it. i did not made any difference. hot air goes up so . . top cover completely out. with 2 or 3 fans on top is more than enough. if i could i would have posted a picture of my case. lol. fully open is not a good ideia, without any dust filter gets filthy very easily.

@sasakostic1982 2 года назад

damn .. bad dude. bad

@godsmackssa 2 года назад

You could have used a toothbrush with alcohol. It wouldn't damage the interposer.

@Roxor.Z 2 года назад

i know it's an old comment, but he said that he used a paper towel, a toothbrush is even harder so it's better to just remove the thermal paste from only the reflective part of the die

@mahdiabbas4022 2 года назад

These cards are weird .. i had one that i thought i bricked it after i just changed the thermal paste in it .. i used 12w/mk and crashs every time its stat mining ... then i tried 6w/mk thermal paste and worked !!
