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 stick—probably because the pads under resistor are damaged.
Does anyone know the exact resistance value (in ohms) of the current sense resistor (shunt) for this GPU ?
I suspect it’s in the 0.01Ω to 0.05Ω range perhaps less, but I need confirmation.
Best regards, Nicolas
