So I’ve tried this hdmi replacement twice now, the ports that came from Amazon I think are pretty cheaply made. They seem to melt a bit if you even touch them in the slightest with the heat gun so the first wasn’t good at all and didn’t even show in the screen unless in safe mode. This one I thought was better and checked all of the pins on the hdmi and none of them moved, they’re all on the pads from what I can tell and port replacement looks good. Now my question is what would cause this artifacting and if you were looking to repair it what would you immediately go to check? I did a Xbox series x 5 days ago successfully but this is my first ps5 and having a bit of trouble. Any tips help and I am not a professional no where near just have a bit of experience in repairing simple stuff but new to hdmi replacements.
