Hi guys
In my spare time to upskill myself I buy joblots if stuff to fix , or attempt fixing and get some experience
I have a r460 that I wanted to fix and give to my nephew
As shown there is a burned ferrite bead, next to a high/ low side VRM pair on the back side of the card
I'm gonna try replacing these pair of VRMs. I wondered how hard they are to remove
I have a decent sequire solder iron and hot air, though may need to get a hot plate.. Seems these VRMs have big contact plates and could be welded
Also seemingly ferrite beads on GPUs are usually 0ohm right? Need to get some of those
Fuse is blown too
Pictures are attached.. will update progress if any
