it might be a short video but it also shows that visual inspection is very useful.

[@alphabeets]

Possibly a world’s record. 8 second repair. Absolutely amazing work!

[@Foxx_69]

Short and sweet. Only true experts can make that repair look so easy.

[@michaelcignarella8159]

Dang........ Appreciate the skill ..... Years of fixing issues to gain this wealth of knowledge !! Hats off to Alex !! Another fantastic job !!

[@maku143]

Short Video...Quick Repairing... Because of your several years of Experience & Expertise 👌🏻😉

[@Pkou]

It's still so insane to me that a single tiny capacitor that costs like... a quarter? can make a $1600+ laptop a paperweight.

[@botchjob308]

A quarter cent maybe!? Definitely single digit cent value!

[@floridaapplemacprosinc.2224]

if it were a MacBook everyone would be commenting 'apple makes such crap'... components are components.

[@chox2001]

ASUS needs their customers to buy new laptops so the common weakpoint is required.

[@blueneon971]

​@@chox2001all products do the same thing, only we don't know which components are made that way

[@franciscomuler6069]

I'm pretty sure that the problem is they overheat

[@andyhwaiting]

That shirt is better than factory!

[@jamesphiri3718]

😂 indeed

[@samshanker5753]

😅

[@XakiMo]

Thanks a lot Akhi Hussain! You made it look really simple, but only an expert can do that! Truly a Gentleman and a Wizard at what he does!

[@shinjiikarir]

thanks to your videos i avoided buying an asus laptop, and got a lenovo instead. Thank you!

[@david.thomas.108]

Short and sweet, good job! Your skills are experience are obvious. Great to watch an expert at work.

[@robc1961]

You have great smt skills. I used to do tons of analog pcb repairs and am anxious to try surface mount.

[@vlastocepli2051]

I wish i had someone close like you to teach me these skills. Another nice video, thanks :)

[@yunusogretmen8576]

Better than factory .Good job and Experience is something like this and how important it is to know

[@Azfar3]

Aslam o Alakum, hope you are doing well, I always watch your videos and love watching your work. I am from Pakistan. My brother keeps doing great work. My Allah bless you and your family and your big doss too.

[@-Bruno.pego-]

Visual inspection on that shirt is awesome! Great job as usual. How did the macbook ended?

[@tomislavkukic1395]

Now that is a power of the visual inspection. Great job as always.

[@WildRapier]

Caught it on the visual inspection, nice!

[@thorbennielsen3845]

What was the value of the new cap?

[@axoloth]

How do you know the right value of the capacitor?

[@RezaMoradian-mq3ce]

Thank you for this amazing repair. can you tell us about the laptop's model ?

[@XBOT2.0]

You look quite handsome in that shirt! With love from Pakistan ❤.

[@yogidemis8513]

Better than factory...... As always!!

[@RANhxcCORE]

i googled - that ceramic cap you replaced is non-polarized! i was worried you could get them backwards :P thanks for the video

[@Jooligan1]

We love long Alex videos but this was a quick fix !!!

[@Capt.Marco-Hawk-L.L.A.P]

lucky guy to find a awesome electronics technician

[@Bahlethecat]

can you do a speedrun for next Asus laptop with no power, put timer on screen and upload whole video without editing? that would be fun to watch... cheers, great job!

[@RavenValkyrie]

You look really good in that shirt Alex.

[@PatriceHOBBAH]

Always BETTER THAN FACTORY ! 👍

[@JefferyHarrison-vl2rm]

Yeah, those larger caps can fail quite a bit, few times had caps that were exploded or had flare outs roasting the area around it. It's the smaller ones below that have a rare rate of failure.

[@theagentsmith]

Hi, since you mentioned this is a common failure on Asus laptop, I wonder if they cheapen out by installing the bare minimum amount of caps, running them to the limit. There are pads for additional caps which are unused.

[@gregfisher216]

Awesome job Alex!!

[@arielcuevas4429]

Amazing, makes me wanting to learn more

[@KevinTodd]

I do enjoy your videos very much your charisma your talent perfect

[@FirePeace-mf3vg]

Do you have any video on tools you use to repair laptop? If you have, send me a link kindly.

[@philippechampouret]

Great job ! Well done. Why don’t you sell hot tweezer on your site ‘

[@floridaapplemacprosinc.2224]

we need a grassroots movement to get Alex to make ONE Big Boss video!!!

[@jappstechshop]

[@TheKaran2226]

What type of microscope do you use 1x 1200x?

[@rezkyyonuar421]

Hi dude, maybe is the boring question, but i want to know what is your pc spek for work, i mean for doin job with your monitor and microscope?

[@tdebug1]

Wondering if it was damaged because of an impact (fall etc.) or some other reason it got cracked?

[@TXS175]

What thermal is the best for laptop?

[@rakibhossen49]

You are a Nice person. I am from Bangladesh

[@EurofighterTyphoon1976]

Excuse my ignorance, how do I know which capacitor to replace if I don't have a schematic or donated motherboards? Thank you

[@tonymontana897]

Hi Alex. I have an older DELL laptop that when you go to charge it, the charger goes into safety mode and the blue light goes out. I suspect something has shorted on the power rail. I'd love to see a video on something like this someday.

[@shadowopsairman1583]

Try a new charger and see if that changes anything

[@esteban_dido_1]

aw man I had planned on buying an asus rog strix g16 (2023) gaming laptop. thanks for the heads up👍

[@xvfdu4]

asus qc is ass don't buy anything from them they have been doing this shit alot lately

[@ThisIS_Insane]

@@xvfdu4 Their PSUs don't last worth damn.

[@shadowopsairman1583]

Dont bother with a "laptop" they all thermal throttle

[@PatriceHOBBAH]

Hello. Another great video. 👍

[@charlesannor9334]

You are too efficient. Just wow

[@kulibo1]

I thought Alex had a wasp on his shirt, until I saw the cable for earpiece..😂🤣😂

[@BlueDevilsBari]

Could you please tell us all, What brand is Rufus?

[@ranjitmandal1612]

Great work 👏

[@Mark_Linford]

Well done Habib 🙂

[@ss-xy2im]

Can you repair a board with the chipset/pch is dead (0 ohms) but is part of the CPU?

[@blackrifle6736]

*Bada bing, bada boom! Said like a true New Yorker.*

[@supelos]

What is the model of the laptop?

[@-----pepsi-----]

The Razer sticker broke it!😉

[@victorstoicescu1082]

Please, show me where is locate the CMOS battery on asus r515ja-bq127t? Thank you very much.

[@ridiculuss3021]

What does it cause to dc failure? Is there a way to prevent our laptops to get broken

[@GerardPinzone]

Is the issue with these Asus laptops due to their parts supplier (bad MOSFETs) or design (overdriving MOSFETs)?

[@milkonbean]

Cheap nasty parts

[@Leontothymos168]

Why is the cap burned out like that? Is there a way to prevent the cap to burn out?

[@shadowopsairman1583]

Yeah not buying a "laptop"

[@sunilkhajuria9018]

Alex you look damn good in this white shirt ❤❤❤❤

[@mustangpower5994]

What about the mac book air motherboard?

[@amirmooti5719]

Perfect 👍

[@Jason-zh7wo]

Great job

[@tobifayemiwo]

I have a non powering Asus E510 laptop that I’m almost giving up on, because it’s not as expensive enough for me to ship for repair but also this laptop is barely 5 months old. I’m just in between right now.😢

[@virgiliobayson6413]

need your help on hp probook 650 G1 no power nothing

[@mrkumarasamy]

How much charged this repair

[@streetdr34mer80]

My laptop just died I was just browsing web and it shut off no power light or anything completely dead. asus a15 2020 what could be the problem? Pls help

[@suryavanshib]

Awesome ✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻

[@robertbartram5632]

great vid a tea time fix,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, thx for posting ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

[@Pizzicato001]

you have a thermal scanner in your eyes... you don't need a thermal camera😂 as usual, well done 👍

[@keithy077]

Asus has a 6-7% market share of laptops. Watching your channel they seem to be repaired more than 6-7% of the time. Would be interested in the statistics of what you repair.

[@kristopherlazcano3101]

I’m going bring my lap bro I don’t what have my MSI Leopard 75 9sd just the led charge appears in On but is not turning on

[@herzancarcachehuerta3261]

It was a piece of cake🎉🎉🎉

[@TWalsh2]

I'm surprised there hasn't been a class action lawsuit about the amount of laptops failing due to what's obviously bad design or component quality.

[@PeakCivilization]

Do you offer fan cleaning services ? Potential revenue source, as this laptop must run at 90° idle with fans this dirty.

[@shadowopsairman1583]

They all thermal throttle unlike Laptops from 2004

[@AP9311]

*checks mofset* oh wait. Let's check over the board, wait hey found the bad cap. Let's fix it, 2 seconds later. So fixed! Haha. Fastest repair in history lol

[@wellingtonhorta]

"Flux is your friend!" 👈👀

[@skyll4141]

you are good.

[@ELGIBBORIM]

I have a problem with an older MSI Z87-g43 gaming motherboard, it doesn't turn on and only when I connect the green and black wires to the 24-pin power supply, it turns on, but it doesn't show a picture....is there anything that can be done....please everyone for help.

[@Denise_in_progress]

They really should make heat resistent capacitors

[@piuvbn]

I try to smell first, then visual inspection!!

[@georgestephens3513]

Good looking shirt.

[@FelinoAnticomunista]

let me guess... the short will go and the joint will be better than factory

[@alinaseer6261]

Hello sir i need work please help me

Yep

Mosfets & Caps are having 1yr lifespan compared in previous generations. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@picklerick7953]

Mine just died 2 weeks out of warranty

[@chrisprioletti7026]

I think you're just a bit psychic, on top of very very experienced

[@maybacher]

I would guess a small barborshop vacuum

[@hassan8718]

my strix g15 with a 3070 & a 5900hx died two weeks ago, it boots up & stays in windows for a few minutes & then freezes and the screen turns black & nothing fixes it always the same thing.. even after formatting it freezes during windows installation i got a different ssd with windows installed on it and still five minutes in freezes and i have to force it off.. i tried everything even changing the ram sticks, removing the battery, changing the ssd hell i even replaced the wifi card not to mention repasting both the cpu & gpu and the vrms around them even though it never overheated in the first place. i actually lost my first job just a few days ago cuz i relied on the machine to do my work.. sucks how i spent all my savings on it and now i have laptop that doesn’t work.. never getting an asus laptop again

[@shadowopsairman1583]

Dont waste your money on any "laptop"

We have picture. Can't believe.
