He goes down to the circuit level, including within microchips, identifies problems with all kinds of tools including spectrum analysers, and shows off some (to me) amazing soldering skills.
Here's a four hour (I kid you not) video of the repair of an Amiga CD32: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lZK3Rmerg1I https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lZK3Rmerg1I

- rasz_pl 11y agoRetroGameModz videos are extremely by the book, IPC to the letter. Afair he is from Netherlands, or some other old rich European country, so he can afford 'wasting time' during repairs as a hobby. In real life this level of attention to detail (pedantry) is present _only_ in military, aviation and space (even medical is not that crazy). For example normal people dont reconstruct pads, they jumper over with kynar/enamel wire.
- MagerValp 11y agoCouldn't agree more, his videos are extremely detailed and very easy to follow! I followed his A4000 audio repair video and managed to fix all the problems with my board.
