What did you do? You where obviously fucking with it.
There is no way that shit just fell off you broke it.
idiot
I plugged it in to the pci slot after cleaning it and it fell off, can I solder it back on?
kek
try the baking method
yeah gpus get depressed and run slower without love
How?
Off yourself, retard.
Should have cleaned it in the dishwasher retard
It's over OP.
Don't break your next gpu.
>can I solder it back on?
Sure senpai, just be extra careful.
This thread is fucking hilarious lol good job op
If you do this you will be a legend, learn and get back to us

Since when is it difficult to solder large shit like that?
Probably watched too much Linus and thought you can de-lid VRAM too.
Watch some tutorials on smd soldering and find some scrap shit to practice on. You got this!
Yes. Assuming you know how to solder, it won't be all that difficult.
voltage regulator module not vram you dummkopf
It isn't VRAM you retarded fuck. You can solder that shit.
you can do it op woo!
find a local electronics shop and ask them very nicely to help you
Literally just two pads to solder. You'd have to be a total retard to fuck it up. Michael J. Fox could solder that back on.
Here we go boys
Good luck
>tape
Questionable. Heat up the pad. Don't mush the iron directly into the globs of solder.
You will be hero of Sup Forums!
good luck Ahmed
I hope you know what you're doing with that soldering iron, Jamal.
>inb4 sending it to Louis
i believe in you
...
que jaws music
Update, solder was to small, be back soon with updates
>he doesnt own a chinese hot air station
They only cost 25$ on ebay. Hot air and solder paste would make quick work of it.
AMD quality everyone.
Should've gone for the green team bro.
GPU is kill
might as well housefire it now
Why is everybody so excited about re-soldering such a simple thing?
Sauce?
because KIRA!
newfag
Op here
Got new solder, radio bros told me how to use it correctly, on my way back to my house right now
What is the brand?
That's just a choke. Pretty sure it only has 2 contact pins so soldering it back is super easy.
RX480
Jesus, were you soldering with your dick or something?
look if you broke the contacts of the part (it's an inductor), if not you can resolder it. If the part is broken you have to get a new SMD inductor with the same inductance first.
Nice 2 pair. good luck
Is that Teen Werewolf guy?
Here we go
flawless
mfw it goes up in smoke
Are you sure it isn't backwards
This
Look at the other thingies. Their texts are in the opposite direction.
did it boot op
If it's under warranty, just return it.
If it is an inductor, polarity shouldn't matter.
OP died in a housefire
kek
This. it's an inductor
this is the part when op survives and has a fucked up burnt face. in a faustian manner, he dedicates his life in making gpus to end both nvidia and amd. this is history. honored to be in this thread.
OP forgot he doesn't have a computer and went to buy one
Sorry guys, it fell off when I put its cooler back on
>he turns into a supervillain who bases every decision on the flip of a GPU
deosnt look like it fell off
keep on soldering soldier
Final pic before I plug it in, pray to Kek for me Sup Forumsuys
you can do it!
looks like a motherfucking cold joint. You need to heat the pad and the contact on the part with the iron, then the solder will flow properly.
i will do my best to summon repeats for you
just fixate it with the tape, who needs solder
You should just really get a set of tweezers and a heat gun.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
PRAISE HE
waiting for op to be bakc on his phone because of fried computer
GPU is definitely kill by now jesus
Congtats user
nice
now solder it proper
stupid
Nice
>windows 10
dropped
OP here

>Solders a fuckmassive cap
>Thing has tabs on each side
>Hero of Sup Forums
Reid, you'll always be remembered.

omedetou reid-san
He didn't maki post about his riced out arch desktop. I wanna have his babies
diceman?
Reid the Repairer. RnR! say it with me RnR!
UPDATE
the vrm was getting very hot when I touched it, I decided that I fucked something up and peeled it off, back at it again boys
>vrm
>voltage regulator module
>was getting hot
YA DON'T SAY?!
...
Hah get a heat gun you twat.
And clean the fucking solder first that thing looks like a mess.
No, I mean over 100c hot, something is wrong
Nigga you fucked up. Get it to a store and ask them to solder it with a heat gun
Your soldering job game me cancer. See attached.
And I hope you mean 100f hot, because 100c is near enough to melt your cheap solder.
That's normal with shitty cooling
