Fixing a Viewer's BROKEN Gaming PC? - Fix or Flop S2:E6

[@GregSalazar]

If you'd have told me in high school that I'd be meeting random people in a Target parking lot and fixing their systems for free - all for the goal of making educational content on KZbin - I'd have laughed and bet everything against it. Your viewership is the backbone of Fix or Flop. Thanks so much for your continued support.

[@DreeftYT]

Greg, you might just be the best Tech KZbinr. Not only do you take care of your fans, but you also keep things clear, concise, and informative. You're really my favorite tech KZbinr. Keep up the great work my man! (ALSO CONGRATS ON YOUR ANNEVERSARY!)

[@crimsontears15]

[@DasLooney]

Love all your videos, keep up the good work it's deeply appreciated!

[@cael_1303]

I'm glad it worked out this way. I'm currently working on my cable management and waiting for a fan hub before I tackle connecting everything and if my system doesn't post I'll know what to look for thanks to this series. I also noticed a bent capacitor (one of the plastic ones at the lower left hand corner. My board is almost like the one in this video) that I bent back in place but it was after I finally got my mobo seated and screwed in. I was told that shouldn't matter in the end unless it came loose in which case I'd either have to RMA (have a month to do so) or solder. Fingers crossed I have no issues come Monday or Tuesday.

[@bobbl]

Greg, you know we builders will never confess to damaging a CPU socket (pins), it's like the ultimate failure in any build! LOL

[@Mr.Morden]

I carefully take out the stupid plastic socket protector before installing the CPU. I always feel like its going to fall into the socket and catch on a pin.

[@drewweikum5073]

Go Blazers!

[@blvck.8197]

No not putting the IO shield on is the ultimate fail 😂

[@raul0ca]

LGA 1700 motherboards aren't cheap. It's like crumpling a couple of hundred dollars into a ball, pouring gasoline on it then flicking lit matches at it.

[@Kaotic7707]

On my very first build the video I was following for a step by step (I won't call them out) did not mention they were using an intel CPU. I had a Ryzen one. When my cover didn't automatically lift off the board when I lifted the retention clip, I went to go lift it manually. Ryzen does not have a CPU socket cover I found out. Luckily I was one of the few that Newegg allowed a return on without much issue.

[@kapeq2320]

Honestly this fix or flop series is the best by far. You really need more subs than you already do. Keep up the great work

[@green2376-s7b]

Man respect to you who fixed those motherboard pins. The patience and carefulness it takes to do that is amazing!

[@cael_1303]

I agree. I don't think I could handle a problem that takes that much precision. It's literally surgery only on a computer and as I'd imagine (but would neverr want to experience) something like shaky hands could ruin it.

[@kelpklepto]

With how much I've heard of bent LGA pins meaning death, I'm extremely impressed you managed to fix them with a needle. Nice grit, Greg.

[@jkorotkiewicz]

I can tell you that they can. I was trying to fix a dozen of bent pins on the LGA1150. Three of them was bent so much, that they fall off while I was trying to unbend them. I think someone dropped a CPU onto them (and that's not the worst part) and then tried to fix it with his nails (that damaged it more). Now the only solution is to change the whole socket. But without proper tools it's impossible. And the board, while it's very nice (a SaberTooth z87) isn't worth the investment.

[@four_20hitman___97]

I have the same problem from my friend's PC. No POST due bent pins. Unbend those pins then the PC boots, man, the joy is immeasurable...

[@Lawthugg]

I build pcs for family and friends, recently i built one with son for him. Cpu pins was something i went over in detail and how to hold and treat both cpu and pins. It was a great bonding expirience as he built about 80% of it and the look on his face with that initial post was worth it. Another great episode.

This format is really awesome, you win with getting your views, the viewer gets his pc fixed or cleaned and the viewer’s also get the knowledge of repair this is dope man keep up the good work!

[@andrewc5995]

This series has been invaluable to me both in learning an order in which to troubleshoot and also in remembering NEVER to assume based on the symptoms. As such, I have managed to fix a major issue with one of my PCs and tidy up some niggling issues in the other one, all for only the cost of parts on one and a bit of my time. No outlay to repair stores. Thank you so much for this, especially for not editing out when you come to the wrong conclusion. I find seeing mistakes is as important as seeing solutions. Keep up the outstanding work!

[@vincentsmith9180]

That's some quality motherboard repair there! So cool that it finally posted!

[@genji5312]

I really enjoy your content and one detail that really keeps me coming back as a loyal viewer is how incredibly transparent you are when it comes to why the potential fix is free! Great work!

[@trentonbennettVO]

I can't believe that processor was still functioning after being booted multiple times with that cluster of bent pins. Amazing work, straightening them all like that!

[@neurocrash808]

You are bold havea lot of expertise to be able to diagnose and repair sockets like this. I've fixed an odd bent socket pin or two here and there, but I didn't think this one was salvageable before you fixed it. Bravo. Thanks for creating and hosting this great show.

[@Justin-dy2ib]

Your reaction is just as mine when I hand repair those cpu socket pins and all works well. I got an N7 mb in bad shape that I resurrected. Very rewarding to save them.

[@DasLooney]

I absolutely hands down loved this episode of Fix or Flop! Glad it wasn't the GPU! It also goes to show you no matter your tech experience in trying to make the process quicker, even the logical path you choose doesn't always save you the time your think it will! This is because PCs are complex and so is the problems they experience. Well done Greg!

[@crazylundy5103]

I just fixed a LGA-1200 socket with bent pins this weekend, same symptoms as this machine. Those pins are NOT fun to fix. Much respect to you for fixing your viewers mistake and providing your knowledge to your viewers for free. Keep up the great content!

[@berkay277]

14:53 that joy is priceless

[@eliadbu]

great video yet again Greg! I've fixed in past few bent LGA pins and TBH it is risky and not easy job, you got to have a precise control of your hand to do this safely. I'm glad you were able to resolve this issue, and props for giving him this cooler definitely huge upgrade from the incompatible prior generation cooler. about no signal symptom without Q-Code display I would have check the error LEDs (if the board has them), and I would have tried using on board graphics checking ram and so until focusing on the CPU. but I think that if I've asked the right question I might got a hint about the issues with the socket. any way good job!

[@b0ne91]

I recently fixed a Z97 with severely bent pins and it had the same symptoms as this if some pins weren't making contact. Occasionally some would, then I'd randomly get RAM beep codes. In the end, I finally got it. But you wouldn't believe how perfectly aligned the pins need to be sometimes. On LGA 1151 I've had a perfect socket where RAM wouldn't work just because one pin was slightly off (barely visible to the naked eye) before too. You did a great job fixing these pins and not giving up.

[@lpconserv6074]

Outstanding fix on this one!! I have only a single time fixed a bent pin (and only a single pin) and had it work. Hats off for your effort... Had I saw that nearly a dozen pins were damaged, I would have simply hit the Amazon or Newegg site and got a new motherboard full stop. When you said it was a cooler off of a lower generation cpu, I wondered how that was even possible, with the different size cpu chip and all... So.... you showed me. It will physically bolt on, but covers only about 75% of the chip. Good call with changing that out.

[@rufnek3124]

[@fhadesson9525]

This series is awesome! For the better part of my life, I've always neglected my pcs and instead I would either pay someone to have a friend build them for me. After watching your channel for over 6 months now. I've finally built up my confidence and motivation! I managed to finally build my very own first pc 4 months ago which worked perfectly first try and I've made a habit of cleaning it at least once a month. Of course your videos are what keeps the inspiration rolling in! Thank you for your hard work.

LGA pins are definitely a PITA to repair, normally I use a mechanical pencil (pins normally fit in the empty barrel) and a fine set of tweezers (same tweezers I use to test keyboard pcb contact pads). Nice to see you pull it off 🤘

Doing gods good working fixing bent socket pins here. Massive props

[@metalheadmalta]

Fantastic job. First of all I am a HUGE FERRARI fan, so seeing you in that shirt after a magnificent pole by Charles Le Clerc in Bahrain, is AWESOME! Secondly, as an industrial PCB designer myself (you might see some of my designs on VESTA wind turbine generators), I cannot understand why stock coolers get such a bad rep. OK, perhaps this is a smaller model for a less powerful CPU, but when we design fans, we make sure that the power rating is correct for the particular unit. Matching aluminium heatsink and correct fan type. Our designs work at 40Amperes... that is very high indeed. In reality, 100 degrees is nothing, These babies are designed in temperatures nearing Mount Doom. We 'soak' them in at 120-150 C, then reflow at 245-300 C... Whatever, love your channel, your style and presentation are top notch!

[@nbrowser]

That POST after pin manipulation #2...Greg that had to feel so good! Great job once again sir.

[@Taargus202]

I was confused a bit at first but must have built and used the case, fans and, cpu cooler from an older cyberpower PC build. Great work Greggy

[@neuideas]

The stock Intel cooler from socket 1200 and earlier has a different height than it needs to have for socket 1700. Only use socket 1700 compatible coolers and mounting kits. It looks like the cooler crushed the CPU in the socket, and bent the pins in the process.

[@captainolives_]

I discovered your channel about one month ago. All your content is really interesting and informative. I'm looking forward to more computer builds and deep cleanings! Thank you for delivering great content!

[@KRAVER_]

thing about pins is you need a good magnifying glass to see them correctly. tons of patience, and a paper thin flat object to bend the pins evenly. Great job Greg !!

[@KRAVER_]

@@DraftySatyr Yes LGA is really tough to fix but doable. tweezers work well to grab and bend where needed. I had to bend a friends Threadripper mobo pins back and it took a few days to get it just right. had 1/2 the pins bent in, from dropping CPU waterblock on it just before cpu was in.

I had this problem with my old system. The only thing was i didn't place the cpu myself it was the seller who placed my cpu and my system worked "fine" for like 4 years only sleep mode didn't work at all and i cleaned is every year or so. Last time i cleaned my system it wouldn't post i didn't know why. So i got in to troubleshoot mode because i like to fix broken things. And everything i did no post... until i removed the cpu and saw bent pins in the mb. My thought process was if it breaks it breaks... so i got a potato knife and bent the pins back dropped my cpu back in powered on my pc and it worked better than before even sleep mode worked fine now. Now i have a new mb and cpu because it became old and sluggish with games. Love you're content and the help you offer for people!! Keep it up!!

[@Goton991]

I just built my first pc today and it wouldn't post. I just want to thank you Greg for teaching me how to troubleshoot a pc. I figured out that the ram wasn't seated properly and now it's up and running without a problem.

[@swaffdog6521]

When fixing bent pins, get a microscope specifically designed for that kind of work. I have used them at work to make it easier to see to fix bent pins in several LGA4189 sockets (for Ice Lake Xeon).

[@frameworkparity]

Love the series, it's very useful to learn and see problems that don't happen everyday. Even if you fix computers all day long there are things that happen so scarcely you honestly start forgetting and need to refresh from time to time. Definitely the best playlist on the channel. TY for fixing the motherboard stand-offs, they were giving me a bit of anxiety for most of the video :), brought back bad memories of a boss I had that would attach any motherboard with just 2 screws to "save time" *shivers*. Also, if there was enough cable to do so, I would have taped the SSD to the back of the motherboard tray instead of the PSU, no big deal I just try to avoid anything near the PSU as much as possible.

[@kreesenthaver2917]

Amazing Greg, my hat goes off to you buddy. I would have definitely messed that up. Hands of a surgeon!

Great stuff. I'd run through the same stuff you did, then I'd get another motherboard after seeing the bent pins. Have you considered doing a "live" version of this more or less running though these steps via some video service walking through the steps with people?

[@SenectusGG]

Yes! I'd watch a live stream of one of these fixes!

[@Simon-fr4ts]

Common beginner mistake bending pins. I did it once a long time ago and luckily salvaged it like you did here. I learned my lesson. Slow down and take care. The cpu should just float into the socket with no pressure and sit fully flush and squarepn it's own. I always double check it. The worst thing I ever did was try to force a cpu air cooler socket retaining clip into place using a screwdriver. I slipped and damaged some tracks on a brand new motherboard. It was toast. I was nearly in tears!

Always love those FOF videos with giving me new ideas of how to approach errors that eventually might appear on systems. Thanks for keeping the series up, you do some great work with them. I had a weird issue myself this morning when trying to turn on my pc that's been rock solid for the last 3-4 months since my last install of a new AIO. It wouldn't post, it would only show a cursor on one of my 2 monitors and refuse to move any further from that. I tried to restart a few times, same issue, power cycled the PSU, same issue. After some headscratching I disconnected one of my external HDD's by unplugging the power to it and boom system up running again. I still have no idea why that would stop my system from posting, but glad I could figure it out that quickly anyway.

[@TheGameBench]

Yep... it's a super PITA process, but I've brought back quite a few boards like this and it's always super satisfying. I think I was just as happy as you when it finally posted. And all that space on the backside for mounting SSDs, the whoever made the case didn't use any of it.

[@DiegoPCMR]

Duuuuude, I was so happy to see the post image. That was a tough one, great job!!!

[@Calango741]

That is SO SWEET that you were able to straighten those pins well enough to make it work. Every one that I have tried to fix has just been too far gone...

[@wboyd33]

Greg, you asked what we would've done 1st. Well after pulling the video card I would've physically checked each connector & Intel CPU cooler push locks. I've seen to many of those tabs either in unlock or not fully seated to skip them. Now the question of if I would've pulled the cooler & CPU to check the pins...yes. If anything I would've wanted to see the thermal compound (if any is present too) & since it wasn't fixed yet I would've pulled the CPU & found the bent pins. IF those pins weren't bent I would've used a Graphite thermal pad to continue & than repasted the thermal paste after whatever the problem was was fixed. Good job of the pins!!!

[@Darkfalz4life]

Love the fix or flop. Its what got me into watching/finding your channel. I've been in IT for almost 20 years and I love watching your process, but truly enjoy how you provide detail to keep it interesting and informative at the same time. In regards to process I would have started like you with the reseating ram and clearing bios, but I would have gone into unseating the PSU CPU connector and putting it onto a tester to ensure PSU was providing power to socket. I also would have been having a heart attack seeing that cooler on the CPU.
