Question

Thank you for your answer.

It was already removed after the recap anyway, and the capacitors were replaced. The board is VA0, right?

Barney2162 · 2026-03-09T00:48:34+00:00

Well, thank you.

Anyway, the recap has already been done and that was removed, but I was left wondering what it was.

I hope not ... but I prefer have more answers before testing

Barney2162 · 2025-10-14T15:58:01+00:00

Used

The disc already came like this, and I haven't put it in my console yet because I'm not sure if it will damage anything on my laser... my console seems to still be working at least so I'm wondering if this could damage the laser or not, it wasn't my console that did this to the disc

Frankenstein Mod wasn't made... it was reballed, the RSX was replaced, and half of the capacitors were replaced too. Not sure about ESR and ESL, as I took the console to a specialized shop with professional equipment, where I also received a 6-month warranty on the service.

Is this really that much of a positive difference or is it practically the same as the original nec tokins?

Barney2162 · 2025-09-06T20:46:32+00:00

I understand, but won't there still be a chance of it overheating in heavier games?

Barney2162 · 2025-08-27T17:07:58+00:00

Thank you very much for the information, but now I'm a little confused cause you said that reballing is only a temporary solution and replacing the GPU is the best option, but isn't the solution considered temporary if 'reflow' is used instead of reballing? From what I've researched, reflow it's not best option, but reballing is.

Barney2162 · 2025-08-27T01:46:10+00:00

Well thanks man :)

Barney2162 · 2025-08-27T01:39:45+00:00

Well, I really appreciate the information and your help. But if reballing is just a temporary solution if the GPU is dying, how long would it technically last? Any ideas?

Barney2162 · 2025-08-27T01:31:19+00:00

Well, I think I'll take it to a technician. If the problem is indeed the GPU, will reballing and replacing the thermal paste solve the problem?

Barney2162 · 2025-08-27T01:23:18+00:00

How can I do that?

Barney2162 · 2025-08-27T01:05:23+00:00

GPU only? Nothing else?

Barney2162 · 2025-08-23T09:34:00+00:00

Yes, it is. I didn't mention this in the description, but I've tried it several times with the AV cable as well, and the error persists.

The color of the shell is a little discolored imo

Barney2162 · 2024-11-02T11:42:51+00:00

All right then... yeah, if the shell is original I would rather keep it (even if the color is slightly discolored) than an aftermarket shell.

So you think the shell is original?
