@Mymatevince 3 года назад

Well done Phil, good job taking it further than the RAM reball. A well deserved white light! Quick question on the reflow, does the machine allow you to get the board perfectly flat or isn't that too critical?

@TheCod3r 3 года назад

Hey Vince, hope you're well buddy 😄 thanks very much, definitely had a lot of fun making this one and glad I didn't give up lol. Re the machine, I wouldn't say it's absolutely critical to have it perfectly flat, but the more accurate the better. The machine won't do it for you and if the machine is too far out it could cause uneven weight distribution on the chip (with just surface tension alone). That could cause flux to rush down one side and potentially "float" the chip which could potentially cause it to slide. A lot of ifs and buts but could be the difference between a chip sitting normally on the board or being lopsided (or sliding away from the pads) Ooh does this mean you're considering getting one 😁

@TweakTips 3 года назад

@@TheCod3r Great job Phil, well done. Just a question on the reball machine and keeping it flat like Vince mentions - I notice you have a support bar under the board (not just to the sides) to stop the board from bowing - do you need to worry about components moving/desoldering if they are touching that support bar and getting heated by the bottom heater? Or does the bottom heater never get warm enough to melt the solder on the components under the board?

@TheCod3r 3 года назад

@@TweakTips thanks bud, great question!. I think it could possibly be a think but it's never an issue I've ran into myself. The only place that could get hot enough is the area directly below the area your top plate is in, but I think as long as the board isn't moved too much surface tension keeps things in place for the most part :)

@Walter Bennet why wouldn't it be ? I mean, it took him about 2 hours (with the 45 of the 2nd ram) and yes it takes some tools and huge practice to be at his point, but don't see why it couldn't be economically viable with this one, i mean the repair cost him nearly nothing and 2 hours of work would be like what 50€ (and it's a nice hour pay) plus ... let's say 15€ for electricity and some crap. I would gladly pay 75 box (even 150 let's double the profit for him) if it means i don't have to buy another PS4 x)

@Tass... 2 года назад

@@kaptainkrunch593 It's not viable because in the time it takes to do this kind of repair several easier repairs could be carried out and more money made. The money made from this kind of repair just isn't worth the hassle and as pointed out in the video it's not even a guarantee it can be fixed (7/10 hit rate) So then it's just wasted time when it fails. As the cod3r said, this repair was done for demonstration/educational purposes and to help with channel growth. For a repair business it most certainly is not viable.

@JayFFAFAlesanaES 2 года назад

@@Tass... Ahhh, the problem with capitalism.

@TheFakeNewsFrog 2 года назад

@@Tass... It’s completely viable. You just care more about profit than sustainability… Which is the exact problem mentioned in the original comment. A lot of these consoles go to landfill simply because of the mindset of ‘can’t be arsed, I’d make more profit not caring about the planet’. The point made here was, if people cared a little less about profit, a lot more consoles could have been saved. That in turn leads to less impact on the environment. Making life more sustainable… But no, muh profit.

@TinariKao 2 года назад

@@TheFakeNewsFrog Too bad the kinds of people making the money and calling the shots are the people who don't care about the planet in many cases. People who want the "wealth and power that comes with it" are often too worried about "making more wealth and power" than "saving the planet" and those that want to "save the planet" end up working for the "big bad corporations" anyway, 'cause ya know, need money to make a living most times.

Especially when you're buying PS4's and the like by the lot and not by the piece. When you have 23 PS4's at one time to resell them, spending days on one just isn't worth it. Eventually, the time and cost to fix it exceeds the value.

Figure with mask protocols and what not I get away without a desolder fume fan for the time being.

Good work. Refreshing to find a vid of a genuine skilled UK technician at work in his shed lol. Nice rework, can see you're very proficient. Felt the joy of success on this one. Cheers

Nice to see someone that will actually think it through and take the time to fix things in your spare time. Take care Jacob VanStraten from Green Bay Wisconsin USA. !

This guy needs some ventilation - inhaled far too much solder and flux.

Nice work! That repair is tough, congrats on the video and looking forward to watching many more in the future.

@TheCod3r 3 года назад

Thanks bud indeed it isn't easy but definitely doable. The apu was a rare case and this just shows ram replacements are possible with basic tools :)

Thank you! Very good and informative video for those of us who are either new or just getting into the electronics repair. I also love how you share the details about your work, machine settings, etc. Cheers!

Great job, I really felt your excitement! This video answered a lot of curiosities of mine. I would think the labour would cost as much as a new system

@jad43701 3 года назад

Excellent work. Love how go the extra mile to get something fixed. You have way more patience than me.

@MyBroJimmy 3 года назад

You have earned a sub sir. I thoroughly enjoy repairs and learning more. I’m going to get a bga rework station for doing Nintendo switches because I have quite an obsession with fixing them yet I can’t fix a blue screen until I have one. I hope to have success. Thank you again!!!
