00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:06.080
you just finished up your new gaming rig you boot it up and

00:00:04.799 --> 00:00:10.000
nothing in desperation you pull out your CPU and

00:00:08.320 --> 00:00:13.040
you see it the pins

00:00:11.759 --> 00:00:18.080
they're gone accidents will happen guys believe me i

00:00:15.519 --> 00:00:18.080
totally get it

00:00:22.080 --> 00:00:26.800
and sometimes accidents happen to you

00:00:27.519 --> 00:00:33.840
one of our fine viewers ethan i hope you're doing well had a little accident

00:00:31.760 --> 00:00:38.160
a couple months back with his shiny new ryzen 7 3700x

00:00:36.320 --> 00:00:42.719
and he managed to break three of the pins

00:00:39.600 --> 00:00:44.480
clean off now sometimes you'll get lucky

00:00:42.719 --> 00:00:49.039
and the pins are just bent and they can be easily straightened other times

00:00:47.120 --> 00:00:52.719
you'll get uh just a little bit lucky and you can't straighten them but you

00:00:50.559 --> 00:00:56.800
pop it in and oh great it turns out the broken pin was a non-essential extra

00:00:54.960 --> 00:01:01.920
grounding pin or reserved pin or something like that other times you

00:00:59.120 --> 00:01:06.000
press the power button and nada

00:01:03.120 --> 00:01:10.320
well that was ethan but fortunately he still had a little bit of luck to spare

00:01:08.080 --> 00:01:14.640
and traded his completely non-functioning chip for some merch from

00:01:12.720 --> 00:01:19.200
us so that we could take a crack at fixing it with just a few cheap and easy

00:01:17.200 --> 00:01:21.600
to get tools and some other supplies that you might have lying around your

00:01:20.720 --> 00:01:26.400
house speaking of around your house grizzlies

00:01:24.320 --> 00:01:30.400
oh geez i hope not but thermal grizzlies conductor not

00:01:28.400 --> 00:01:33.119
liquid metal tim offers maximum cooling performance check it out and keep things

00:01:31.920 --> 00:01:36.119
cool at the link in the video description

00:01:42.799 --> 00:01:49.040
before we start let's talk about the tools we're going to need a magnifying

00:01:46.079 --> 00:01:53.439
light like this would be ideal but a regular magnifying glass will do in a

00:01:51.200 --> 00:01:58.000
pinch and if you go that route you're also gonna need good light because you

00:01:55.439 --> 00:02:02.479
need to see the tiny teeny little pins that we're gonna be working with so a

00:01:59.360 --> 00:02:04.399
desk lamp or ideally two so that it's

00:02:02.479 --> 00:02:09.119
illuminated from two different angles would be freaking fantastic

00:02:07.040 --> 00:02:13.680
next you're going to need a hot air solder stick can you stay please

00:02:12.080 --> 00:02:17.280
stay good boy

00:02:15.200 --> 00:02:21.120
next up you'll need a hot air solder or smd rework station you can think of this

00:02:19.360 --> 00:02:26.000
kind of like a regular soldering iron but with a fan attached to it so instead

00:02:23.760 --> 00:02:29.200
of poking and prodding at the things you're trying to solder potentially

00:02:27.440 --> 00:02:33.280
knocking them over or you know accidentally dabbing the tip into the

00:02:30.959 --> 00:02:37.360
pcb we're just going to be able to take the hot air that comes out of the tip of

00:02:34.879 --> 00:02:41.760
it and kind of heat up the entire area that we're trying to work on without

00:02:39.519 --> 00:02:44.480
touching it now normally these include tips

00:02:42.640 --> 00:02:48.000
we seem to have misplaced ours and the replacement tips weren't a prime item so

00:02:46.400 --> 00:02:52.160
we're just gonna yellow it with the big old fat tip you'll need a good set of

00:02:49.920 --> 00:02:58.080
tweezers we really like these ones from ifixit as well as some flux this will

00:02:55.280 --> 00:03:02.720
help our solder flow very nicely as we are putting the pins back on we're going

00:03:00.000 --> 00:03:07.200
to need some solder masks these are available cheaply on sites like

00:03:04.959 --> 00:03:11.040
aliexpress or ebay the one we're going to need in particular is the .65

00:03:09.519 --> 00:03:14.720
millimeter pitch one because that matches the pin arrangement of our CPU

00:03:13.519 --> 00:03:18.400
as you can imagine you're not going to want to blow super hot air onto your

00:03:16.560 --> 00:03:23.760
kitchen countertop so we recommend something like a couple of fireplace

00:03:20.400 --> 00:03:26.480
bricks like this or failing that a nice

00:03:23.760 --> 00:03:31.120
large sheet of many layers of aluminum foil so something like

00:03:28.000 --> 00:03:33.680
five six seven of them and anywhere from

00:03:31.120 --> 00:03:37.840
kind of seven inches or around 20 centimeters square it's really important

00:03:35.760 --> 00:03:41.680
to make sure that your entire work area is clean and clear because the last

00:03:39.840 --> 00:03:46.080
thing you want to be doing is bumping something over or accidentally touching

00:03:44.000 --> 00:03:50.080
a hot surface now that all our tools are set up all we need is the donor

00:03:50.879 --> 00:03:54.799
what donor

00:03:55.760 --> 00:04:00.959
what the it's not a big deal the thing's already dead

00:03:59.439 --> 00:04:06.000
you know what screw it i'm going to embrace it

00:04:02.480 --> 00:04:06.000
bring in the donut

00:04:08.159 --> 00:04:14.080
our first order of business is to harvest some good pins so we're going to

00:04:12.000 --> 00:04:18.560
set our station to somewhere between 300 and 350 degrees celsius

00:04:16.720 --> 00:04:23.600
here's a hot tip by the way hey e get it the hotter the temperature

00:04:21.359 --> 00:04:29.199
the faster the solder melts but also the faster you can damage your components

00:04:25.759 --> 00:04:31.040
slowest move smooth is fast

00:04:29.199 --> 00:04:34.080
grab your tweezers and pick a good candidate for a straight pin that you

00:04:32.560 --> 00:04:37.840
want to pull off start to heat up the area and don't burn

00:04:36.800 --> 00:04:44.400
yourself when you see the solder at the base of the pins get really shiny that means it

00:04:42.080 --> 00:04:49.360
is melted so pick off the good pins that you want to use grab an extra one or two

00:04:47.040 --> 00:04:53.120
keep the area hot until you're done then place the pins off to the side to cool

00:04:53.520 --> 00:04:59.440
is this taking too long again no okay i swear to god if these don't melt

00:04:58.560 --> 00:05:03.919
oh well we got one

00:05:01.600 --> 00:05:03.919
blue

00:05:05.040 --> 00:05:11.840
there's one there's another one

00:05:08.960 --> 00:05:11.840
all right

00:05:12.000 --> 00:05:16.880
there's another one right all right we getting the hang of this boys

00:05:15.600 --> 00:05:23.199
the last thing you want to do while you're at this is pull too hard because then you can

00:05:20.160 --> 00:05:25.120
actually rip off the pad and once the

00:05:23.199 --> 00:05:28.400
copper contact point comes up off the CPU

00:05:26.320 --> 00:05:31.199
you are done well that's more important for the one that's not already dead i

00:05:29.680 --> 00:05:35.919
guess ah there's a perfect example see that we ripped off the pad if we do that

00:05:33.280 --> 00:05:39.440
on our working CPU game over ladies and gentlemen one thing to watch out for

00:05:37.600 --> 00:05:42.240
guys the CPU and the end of your tweezers are going to be

00:05:41.039 --> 00:05:47.360
hot don't touch them that's not a smart idea let them cool

00:05:45.759 --> 00:05:54.080
down for a few minutes and while you're waiting why don't you refresh yourself

00:05:49.520 --> 00:05:54.080
with some ice cold water LTT Store.com

00:05:56.240 --> 00:06:02.720
i'm going to be the next billy mays hey it's lions sebastian here with extra

00:05:59.759 --> 00:06:06.720
heavy duty alcan foil it slices it dices oh my god my fingers

00:06:04.479 --> 00:06:12.000
at this point we strongly recommend practicing reattaching pins to your

00:06:08.800 --> 00:06:12.000
donor CPU before

00:06:12.800 --> 00:06:20.720
all right all right all right enough we strongly recommend reattaching them

00:06:17.199 --> 00:06:23.440
to your donor CPU until you're

00:06:20.720 --> 00:06:27.440
comfortable with the whole process now i don't have time for that somebody

00:06:25.360 --> 00:06:30.560
ordered some tech tips on ubereats and uh

00:06:29.280 --> 00:06:38.720
these babies ain't gonna deliver themselves so we're going straight to our new CPU

00:06:36.800 --> 00:06:42.400
hoping for the best here so we're just going to go ahead and pop that on make

00:06:40.080 --> 00:06:46.560
sure that that is in fact actually yep okay that works just fine and this gives

00:06:44.800 --> 00:06:52.800
us a really good look at the broken off pins on our CPU i

00:06:49.520 --> 00:06:55.919
don't know what ethan did here because

00:06:52.800 --> 00:06:57.680
they are straight almost cleanly snapped

00:06:55.919 --> 00:07:00.800
off which unfortunately is gonna make the job of removing the pins from the

00:06:59.840 --> 00:07:04.960
pads a little bit trickier even with these

00:07:03.360 --> 00:07:09.120
teeny tiny tweezers it's going to be hard to get a good grip on those dang it

00:07:07.120 --> 00:07:12.800
ethan i really hope i don't knock off any additional pins too while i'm at it

00:07:11.039 --> 00:07:17.520
i actually kind of wish i had practiced before doing this i mean you know the

00:07:14.639 --> 00:07:21.440
saying though practice is for chumps hey number two is out this last one's the

00:07:19.919 --> 00:07:24.800
hardest one come on

00:07:23.440 --> 00:07:28.319
yes now i just gotta find where that uh

00:07:26.479 --> 00:07:31.759
first pin fell how hot's the CPU

00:07:30.400 --> 00:07:36.880
ah okay yeah it's oh it's in there ow ah

00:07:34.880 --> 00:07:41.599
dang it brandon can you see this can you ow yeah i got this i got this can you see

00:07:39.520 --> 00:07:45.599
it there oh man i think it might have stuck back on there

00:07:43.360 --> 00:07:47.840
you know what and it's gone

00:07:46.880 --> 00:07:51.280
perfect 20 bucks this thing works when i'm done

00:07:49.919 --> 00:07:54.720
i don't actually bet money though so it'll have to be like lunch

00:07:53.120 --> 00:07:58.400
all right so now we're going to put our mask on for real there you go that's an

00:07:56.960 --> 00:08:02.160
important step then we're gonna add a little bit of

00:08:00.560 --> 00:08:06.560
flux just around the pins that we're trying

00:08:03.759 --> 00:08:10.879
to reattach here now is a great time to clean our pins so

00:08:09.039 --> 00:08:16.960
just a little bit of isopropyl alcohol and some tissue paper

00:08:13.360 --> 00:08:18.400
wipe the contact pad there

00:08:16.960 --> 00:08:23.199
clean pins will adhere a little bit better something to notice that the flux we're using is a bit of a thicker box

00:08:21.680 --> 00:08:28.560
that's going to help hold the pins in place while we are heating up the CPU

00:08:25.520 --> 00:08:30.879
now let's go ahead and stick our pins

00:08:28.560 --> 00:08:36.479
where they go oh why am i doing this left-handed now you can do the pins one

00:08:33.360 --> 00:08:38.800
at a time but we are opting to position

00:08:36.479 --> 00:08:42.880
all of the pins on the CPU so we're just going to go full hail mary heat the

00:08:40.719 --> 00:08:48.240
whole thing up and hope they all kind of snap back into place here oh crap

00:08:46.080 --> 00:08:51.600
i just wanna i just wanna push this one over a little bit why am i

00:08:49.760 --> 00:08:55.519
doing this left-handed well i lied i know the answer the answer is that it's

00:08:53.200 --> 00:08:59.920
because i need to show the camera okay i'm pretty sure that's about as good as

00:08:57.040 --> 00:08:59.920
it's gonna get right now

00:09:00.399 --> 00:09:05.440
time to heat this baby up

00:09:03.519 --> 00:09:10.959
oh and it blew them over okay we need more flux more flux okay get off there

00:09:09.040 --> 00:09:15.200
all of you there you go we've got like a flux booger on there all right this is

00:09:13.760 --> 00:09:21.680
not easier um okay i think that's where that one goes

00:09:18.959 --> 00:09:26.399
my certainty level is very low yeah i kind of put i think too much flux

00:09:24.240 --> 00:09:30.240
on so we're gonna try to melt our flux a little bit to give give us a better look

00:09:28.399 --> 00:09:34.160
at what the crap we're dealing with here yeah it's not getting easier

00:09:32.880 --> 00:09:38.240
man you guys should go watch that other guy's guide on this he does it better than i do

00:09:36.560 --> 00:09:41.200
okay i'm doing this right handed i give up i can't i can't show you guys what

00:09:39.920 --> 00:09:45.600
i'm doing because i need to do this with my with my dominant hand can i just put

00:09:43.680 --> 00:09:48.640
this on first and then slip the mask over top

00:09:46.800 --> 00:09:53.360
so another thing is i think last time i kind of blew it over whereas this time

00:09:50.959 --> 00:09:57.760
i'm going to come straight down on it it's going to snap into place

00:09:55.519 --> 00:10:02.800
why do i doubt that hold on hard bail hard bail i'm bailing

00:10:00.880 --> 00:10:07.360
okay none of those are attached okay new plan

00:10:05.519 --> 00:10:10.560
we are putting the we're putting all the pins on and slipping the solder mask

00:10:08.959 --> 00:10:13.680
over top because i don't think these pads actually slip through here they do

00:10:12.480 --> 00:10:18.959
not well that's good oh my god we can just

00:10:16.000 --> 00:10:23.920
put the pins in the solder mask nicholas

00:10:21.120 --> 00:10:27.680
bad instructions holy crap that's how you're supposed to

00:10:26.560 --> 00:10:31.200
do it this is so much easier so all we're

00:10:29.920 --> 00:10:37.519
going to do now is line the pins up in the solder mask

00:10:35.680 --> 00:10:42.800
did you manage to reattach pins the way you were doing it yeah

00:10:39.600 --> 00:10:47.720
well you're a genius i actually cannot

00:10:42.800 --> 00:10:47.720
do this with this stupid light in my way

00:10:47.760 --> 00:10:55.040
okay there we go getting hot in here so take off all your

00:10:52.800 --> 00:10:58.399
pins i don't know if i would describe them as having

00:10:56.560 --> 00:11:02.720
snapped into place but they're definitely pretty straight like we

00:11:00.560 --> 00:11:06.160
should be good by now right all right gonna let it cool down we're

00:11:04.560 --> 00:11:10.160
gonna pull the mask off and see if the solder soldered

00:11:08.079 --> 00:11:13.640
i'm gonna use my very sophisticated cooling technique

00:11:15.680 --> 00:11:21.040
here you go what do you think all the pins gonna come up they stayed

00:11:19.680 --> 00:11:27.760
that's a good sign but that doesn't necessarily mean they are attached

00:11:23.600 --> 00:11:29.440
nope no that one's loose af

00:11:27.760 --> 00:11:32.800
they're all loose i hate this i'm not having fun anymore there's still a lot

00:11:31.600 --> 00:11:38.000
of flux but the problem is that it no it blows it over right away we're going in hot

00:11:36.560 --> 00:11:41.360
kind of makes sense that the mask would actually slow down the

00:11:39.760 --> 00:11:46.399
process i guess okay so it's not melted

00:11:43.120 --> 00:11:48.800
oh my god is this heated up yet

00:11:46.399 --> 00:11:52.079
oh one of them just moved for sure this is supposed to be like a quick and easy

00:11:50.240 --> 00:11:55.680
video we were like oh you know yeah what about that dead AMD CPU we got those

00:11:53.839 --> 00:12:00.800
solder masks yeah sure we'll just you know we'll put the pins back on it

00:11:57.920 --> 00:12:04.800
oh boy i think we ruined it it's not great

00:12:02.399 --> 00:12:09.680
but the pins are on there that could just be some burn flux so can

00:12:07.600 --> 00:12:13.600
you see how crooked they are did we try and throw it in a socket at this point

00:12:11.600 --> 00:12:17.440
are these pans longer than this CPU though hold on a second

00:12:15.279 --> 00:12:21.839
oh my god they're longer well let's see if they even fit in the socket

00:12:20.000 --> 00:12:26.720
you know i specifically asked you if the pins were the same didn't i you can tell

00:12:23.920 --> 00:12:29.920
just looking at it nicholas your only way out of this

00:12:28.079 --> 00:12:35.120
is for the audience to just love how much you've been messing with me for the

00:12:31.920 --> 00:12:37.040
last 45 minutes so brandon how excited

00:12:35.120 --> 00:12:41.360
are you to find out if this works i have faith you have faith but the thing is

00:12:39.600 --> 00:12:47.680
sometimes you can kind of straighten them out with the socket even after re-soldering

00:12:45.120 --> 00:12:50.959
them i might need to bend them a little no

00:12:48.560 --> 00:12:55.839
this one is not attached well enough crap we gotta heat it up again

00:12:53.200 --> 00:12:58.480
holy sh just loosen actually they all seem to be on now

00:12:57.360 --> 00:13:02.720
all right i have a new and fresh concern nicholas

00:13:01.440 --> 00:13:06.399
these pins look like they might be a little thicker well we'll see if they go

00:13:05.279 --> 00:13:11.760
in there moment of truth time now boys and girls

00:13:10.000 --> 00:13:18.639
i don't know if i actually want to know or not quick get another one let's fake it

00:13:16.320 --> 00:13:23.519
we never actually do that guys no signal detected

00:13:21.279 --> 00:13:26.399
those fast spinning fans are the that is not a good sign do you want to grab a

00:13:25.120 --> 00:13:31.519
different CPU and let's make sure the bench actually works wait this is an

00:13:28.440 --> 00:13:35.320
x370 pro

00:13:31.519 --> 00:13:35.320
has it been BIOS flashed

00:13:36.639 --> 00:13:42.160
so we're gonna put an actually out of the box compatible motherboard on the

00:13:40.639 --> 00:13:48.880
bench so cross hair something or just get out i'm in a hurry

00:13:46.720 --> 00:13:51.200
this is known as a speed motherboard swap

00:13:52.240 --> 00:13:56.880
okay we're going with the broken one we're going straight for the hail mary

00:13:55.920 --> 00:14:03.680
here feels like i'm having oh shh

00:14:00.480 --> 00:14:04.959
they're moving

00:14:03.680 --> 00:14:10.800
well that was either a good sound or a bad sound no it's not making it okay

00:14:09.040 --> 00:14:14.000
trying the known good CPU just to make sure there's not something else wrong

00:14:12.320 --> 00:14:17.839
with our configuration here this is an x570 board right

00:14:19.519 --> 00:14:26.240
470 is not compatible out of the box necklace

00:14:24.000 --> 00:14:26.240
no

00:14:27.199 --> 00:14:34.000
i can't keep track of which crosshair number corresponds to which damn chipset

00:14:31.920 --> 00:14:38.320
okay ASUS take notes just call it the crosshair

00:14:36.360 --> 00:14:43.279
x570 okay and if you do another one call the

00:14:40.000 --> 00:14:44.800
crosshair x570-2

00:14:43.279 --> 00:14:48.880
there you're welcome is this an x570 motherboard

00:14:47.760 --> 00:14:54.560
i want you to read it off the motherboard itself it's in there i saw it it's fine okay we

00:14:52.880 --> 00:14:57.680
have to take another we have to hit it with this

00:14:55.920 --> 00:15:02.079
so like what do i do it doesn't melt

00:15:02.079 --> 00:15:07.360
i'm fine honestly if this thing managed to

00:15:05.360 --> 00:15:13.760
survive being heated up and cooled down this many times like this it's you know

00:15:10.000 --> 00:15:14.880
kudos to AMD you know you get a bunch of

00:15:13.760 --> 00:15:19.920
no come on

00:15:17.040 --> 00:15:23.360
a different pin just came off we're back where we started

00:15:21.519 --> 00:15:27.120
three missing pins do you want to take a break from this nope

00:15:25.120 --> 00:15:30.880
one more time

00:15:30.880 --> 00:15:37.040
and it blew one of them over show me the snap into place you horrible piece of

00:15:34.959 --> 00:15:40.720
garbage no but the ones next to them aren't melted

00:15:38.320 --> 00:15:43.800
nothing is melted like is this the right temperature

00:15:42.399 --> 00:15:47.330
i'm going up

00:15:48.959 --> 00:15:55.680
melt you piece of garbage every one of these pins should be melted right now

00:15:52.639 --> 00:15:58.000
and they're not i'm cranking it to 450.

00:15:55.680 --> 00:16:02.160
just flow that didn't do it i don't know what can

00:16:00.560 --> 00:16:06.639
nope never mind this just pulled the thing right off we actually

00:16:04.320 --> 00:16:11.199
managed to reattach the three pins that we were trying to last time but the pin

00:16:08.959 --> 00:16:16.959
that i was using to check and see if it was melted that one did not reflow so we

00:16:14.720 --> 00:16:20.160
need to put a new pin there now doing more flux

00:16:18.079 --> 00:16:23.759
and it's dying that one's solid that one's solid

00:16:21.600 --> 00:16:26.959
the one we just tried to attach is solid i think all the pins are on this one's

00:16:25.199 --> 00:16:33.199
bent at a bit of a funny angle but maybe we can just give it a little

00:16:30.079 --> 00:16:36.060
well let's get a heatsink on it

00:16:33.199 --> 00:16:38.959
how how how

00:16:38.959 --> 00:16:46.959
lost a pin again putting this back on for the new billionth time

00:16:44.160 --> 00:16:50.880
okay brb that's hilarious all the pins just

00:16:49.199 --> 00:16:54.639
snapped into place i'm pretty sure it reflowed this time i

00:16:52.800 --> 00:16:59.360
think it's the camera operators i think they will us to fail

00:16:57.360 --> 00:17:03.440
okay you might as well roll on this gave it one more crack without the

00:17:01.040 --> 00:17:06.000
camera rolling so i get this light out of my way and actually see what the heck

00:17:04.959 --> 00:17:11.839
i'm doing and as far as i can tell

00:17:09.199 --> 00:17:16.959
all now five of the pins that we've had to either reattach in the first place or

00:17:14.640 --> 00:17:21.839
reattach after knocking them off are solid and more importantly i

00:17:19.360 --> 00:17:26.559
actually got that snapping effect and everything is lined up real nice now

00:17:25.199 --> 00:17:30.400
just goes to show you as soon as you turn on a camera

00:17:29.200 --> 00:17:34.320
it's in why does it just say AMD 50. i don't

00:17:32.480 --> 00:17:48.559
care about AMD's 50th anniversary right now i just want to know what's going on with this computer

00:17:48.559 --> 00:17:53.920
what was that no way

00:17:53.200 --> 00:17:56.979
yes

00:17:57.679 --> 00:18:00.799
okay

00:18:00.799 --> 00:18:07.679
i can't even believe it it's all dry at fifth rising seven you

00:18:05.440 --> 00:18:15.840
had no reason to have faith brandon ryzen 7 3700x a core processor 64 gigs

00:18:12.799 --> 00:18:17.679
of RAM i'm gonna put two more sticks in

00:18:15.840 --> 00:18:23.280
i'm afraid to feel too good about this yet show me all four sticks where is it

00:18:21.200 --> 00:18:25.679
oh yes there it is oh

00:18:25.840 --> 00:18:32.960
it works let's do it live okay

00:18:30.160 --> 00:18:36.640
there's the HDMI cable okay you can tell it's the right one because the tv is

00:18:34.480 --> 00:18:42.000
going to turn off you see that i am shutting down this system i am pulling

00:18:38.960 --> 00:18:44.640
it off because there's always some

00:18:42.000 --> 00:18:48.880
jackass in the comments that's like uh uh fake uh pre-recorded

00:18:49.200 --> 00:18:54.559
yeah carefully oh those pins are a little bent it's kind of hard to take

00:18:52.720 --> 00:18:58.799
out and there's a lot of flux in that socket now so that's pretty cool

00:18:56.960 --> 00:19:02.000
but there it is that's the one

00:19:00.400 --> 00:19:06.640
you know how you can tell because there's a bunch of pins that are taller

00:19:04.080 --> 00:19:10.640
than the other ones at the back so guys you might be thinking at this point gee

00:19:08.559 --> 00:19:14.799
Linus that looked like a lot of work and frustration why would you want to do

00:19:12.480 --> 00:19:20.320
this well reason one i think is pretty obvious out of necessity maybe like

00:19:17.919 --> 00:19:25.679
ethan you accidentally dropped your new CPU while you were attempting to install

00:19:22.799 --> 00:19:30.799
it another could be to save a buck maybe like us you found a sweet deal on an

00:19:28.320 --> 00:19:36.080
upgrade but it's got some pins that are bent or broken or maybe you just want to

00:19:33.520 --> 00:19:41.200
learn a new skill if rpgs have taught me anything more skills even if you have no

00:19:38.799 --> 00:19:45.760
idea what they're for yet are always worth putting at least a few points into

00:19:44.080 --> 00:19:51.679
that was about the most stressed out i've been since probably the last time i

00:19:48.160 --> 00:19:54.400
did an AMD CPU pin repair video which

00:19:51.679 --> 00:19:59.679
coincidentally is still running that CPU because it actually had

00:19:57.280 --> 00:20:03.600
a broken pin and all we did was jam a little piece of metal or pin into the

00:20:01.520 --> 00:20:08.240
socket and then put it on there so i couldn't like take the CPU off because

00:20:05.360 --> 00:20:11.600
it would unfix it um so ncix didn't want it back and i was like oh okay my

00:20:09.679 --> 00:20:15.919
parents need an upgrade that system still runs to this day i had a bunch of

00:20:13.919 --> 00:20:21.360
haters on that video to be like oh it's a bad way to fix it it won't last

00:20:18.640 --> 00:20:26.320
it sure did just like my segways will last forever to our sponsor squarespace

description so thanks for watching guys i am going to go have our studio managers inventory

00:21:23.039 --> 00:21:30.480
this CPU because i just traded a bunch of merch for a 3700x

00:21:27.919 --> 00:21:35.039
yay go Linus so guys if you like this kind of diy

00:21:32.159 --> 00:21:39.919
nonsense you might also enjoy our finale of our red camera water cooling series

00:21:37.280 --> 00:21:43.200
go check that out and subscribe to see that when it comes out wait that one's

00:21:41.600 --> 00:21:46.799
not yet by the time this comes out i suspect it will be so go check it out

00:21:44.880 --> 00:21:51.600
and subscribe anyway honestly i feel like i earned this yeah yeah between the

00:21:49.520 --> 00:21:55.760
hours i put into it and the merch that i paid for it i don't even feel bad i'm

00:21:53.280 --> 00:21:55.760
keeping it
