Hi everyone,
I’m repairing a PowerColor RX 5700 XT Dual Fan (not the Red Devil or Red Dragon model) with a burnt pin 5 on its 6-pin PCIe connector.
The previous owner had it repaired by a shop. They soldered an enameled wire to reconnect pin 5 to the current sense resistor (shunt).
The card wasn’t displaying anything after this fix.
When I inspected their work, I found that the sense resistor had fallen off after reheating the solder joint (likely due to damaged pads from resistor).
I tried to resolder it with a hot air station, but the resistor wouldn’t...
