So does anyone repair gpus? USA based please. I'd be interested in finding somone I can ship cards to for repairs. I'd trade cards for the labor or pay the labor. This would be a recurring gig , right now I have over 40 2070s that need tlc. A few RTX 6000 cards and a few 30xx cards. Title: Re: Gpu repair. Post by: AndrewK on January 05, 2021, 02:00:34 PM I use to do it...
I might still do it for crypto. But to be honest... The last time I was messing with it was 6900 series amds cards and they were getting so complicated/tight traces that the typical solution (AKA reflow) wouldn't work. Throwing them in the oven is about all the work/troubleshooting I want to do now adays. I do hardware stuff for my day job and don't want to touch a scope after I get off work. DM me though and we'll see if we can work something out. Title: Re: Gpu repair. Post by: DebitMe on January 05, 2021, 06:16:06 PM I use to do it... I might still do it for crypto. But to be honest...

But I was one who asked philipma about it. I have a 1070 card that I cant even get to turn on, but was fine the last time I tried it, probably over a year ago. Not sure how much work it would actually need is the problem. Title: Re: Gpu repair. Post by: philipma1957 on January 06, 2021, 02:09:25 AM I have 1 weird 1080ti blower that does 10mh at 70 watts with fans at 20% no matter what rig i use it on.

Title: Re: Gpu repair. Post by: AndrewK on January 06, 2021, 01:07:01 PM Yeah, I'd expect it to be something in the power delivery circuit. A bad cap or regulator. I've successfully replaced various components like regulators and chokes on cards in the past... But its a lot lower success rate than just reflowing an artifacting card.
The problem with modern cards is they're so darn complex. You can take a multimeter and do diode checks or hook various circuits up to an oscilloscope... but its a needle in a hay stack. Happy to try my hand at most anything though... just want people to have realistic expectations. :) Title: Re: Gpu repair.

I talked to the powers that be on this and I'm ready to act asap. I'll be shipping you a mix of 2070s and 2080 supers. What kind of TAT we looking at? Well send donor cards tooThe problem with modern cards is they're so darn complex.
