In this video, we repair my ATX power supply, which broke down after a few years of use. I show you a block diagram of such a power supply, and tell you what elements you should pay special attention to when looking for damaged ones. Then we do a quick renovation of the power supply, i.e. we fix the solders, apply thermal paste, and do a recap. --------------------- Table of contents ----------------------- 0:00 Introduction 1:46 Power supply block diagram 4:39 Checking the elements 8:14 What was damaged? 10:18 How to start a power supply without a computer? 11:09 Quick repairs 11:47 What to do before starting? 12:52 Were you able to repair the power supply? 14:06 Output voltage measurements 15:15 Problems with repairing newer power supplies 15:50 Recaping (replacing capacitors) 18:33 Applying thermal paste 19:50 Conclusion ------------------------------------------------------------ Don't want to miss new videos?
