[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1392158, member: 56379"] Here's about a 10 minute video on how motherboards/logic boards are made: [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Va3Bfjn4inA]How to make a Motherboard - A GIGABYTE Factory Tour Video - YouTube[/url] In regards to the soldering process...(to simplify things) it's kind of a 3 step process: 1. The bottom side of the board is "smeared" with a layer of solder-paste. 2. Most of the small integrated circuits, cpu, gpu are placed on the board. 3. The motherboard then goes thru a "Reflow Oven" where the board goes thru a "reflow-soldering" process. [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflow_soldering]Reflow soldering - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia[/url] Nothing is hand-soldered! Everything is just too small & too tightly packed for it to be even remotely possible for someone to desolder & solder components. - Nick [/QUOTE]
