iMac Intel 27" EMC 2429 Graphics Card, CPU, Hard Drive, Ram Upgrade

Inleiding

This is a guide on how to upgrade your Mid 2011 iMac's Ram, HDD, CPU, and GPU. This guide also shows you how to clean out the fans of your iMac.

Wat je nodig hebt

    • First Start by unplugging all cables from your iMac and setting up a workstation.

    • You will need a large workstation to hold the iMac and it's parts.

    Heavy-Duty Suction Cups (Pair)

    Koop

    • Stick a heavy-duty suction cup near each of the two top corners of the glass panel.

    • To attach the suction cups, first position the suction cup with the movable handle parallel to the face of the glass panel (as indicated in the second picture).

    • While lightly holding the suction cup against the glass, raise the movable handle until it is parallel with the other handle (as indicated by the third picture).

    • If your suction cups refuse to stick, try cleaning both the glass panel and the suction cup with a damp soft, lint-free cloth. (Dampen with distilled water, and if needed, an equal ratio of distilled water and white vinegar for best results.)

    • Do not use the suction cups to carry the display glass because if one of them fails to stick, you could drop the screen and break it.

    • The original iMac box makes a good place to store the glass panel. Otherwise, a padded horizontal surface, like a towel on a desk, will do nicely.

Where is the rest of this guide?

Andrew Gannon - Antwoord Deel

Obviously not following this guide, I opened my iMac that had full graphics failure, uninstalled the GPU-card, cleaned it, baked it in the oven to soften the solder and let the chip reattach itself, added new conductive paste, reinstalled it and it worked again.

I can't remember the temperatures, but there are tutorials to be found.

How long did your fix last?

I tried this heating of the GPU on a MacBook Pro 15" 2011 and it help up not even two months.

Non è una guida. Manca tutto!

This guide only covers removal of the outer glass and LCD display. Where are the rest of the steps?
