I’ve been using 858D hot air station.
Once again it was just one pin on 81161 that caused this. It wasn't soldered properly, because I really should use solder in paste or at least clean the old solder and not just reflow the solder that was there. I'm still learning hot air soldering. But anyway after making sure that every pin is soldered correctly that suspicious resistor has now 8K - which is I guess good. At least close enough to 7.8K-7.7K of other resistors.
So let's summarize what we learned now. It's not only a mosfet, not NCP81161 (that time gate to ground voltage was low I think I just killed the 81161 by running into the mosfet failure few times), nor the bootstrap capacitor. Also on my last try to run the card after fixing that resistor issue I once again checked the gate to ground voltage and it was the same as on the other phases, but it was hitting 13v more frequently. Which I think is normal, because this phase seems to be the main phase that is always used the most. Anyway card died when I was redoing my measurements - problem is still there.
In my free time I checked NCP81022 - VRM controller. And one pin made me suspicious. It's called CSREF and I have there like 2 ohms to ground. Pin description is in the image below. Should it be like that?
Hello, it's a bit old here, but I just found that you have super photos of this graphics card. I'm trying to repair a rx560 and IC I'm looking for looks very similar. So if someone could send better photo what IC is it specifically I would be really grateful.
