If Lamborghini has one thing consistent in their products, its the price
oh and litteraly staying with the same design
Their tractors aren't very expensiv though ^^
@@marklichem Lamborghini has tractors? What madness is that?
@@arokh72 they made tractors before cars.
@@rozzleshnozzle9793 wow, never knew that, but of course AFAIK they never sold their tractors in Australia.
I felt an overwhelming urge to wear gloves just watching this video.
Vileda must be happy to sponsor Dawid 😂
Latex, or driving?
@@gregvanpaassen or nitrile or winter or... 😁
Vileeeeeeda to the rescue.
@ALL HANDS ON STEAM DECK ok kid
The fact that it's so difficult to reassemble this laptop, qualifies is to be a great Italian designed laptop.
It really is a surprisingly Lambo product. 😂
typical design for that era of gaming laptops
what if i told u it has 5-6 different types of screws size. Italian spirit intensifies.
Dawid to laptop: "you're not doing as well as I hoped."
Laptop: "When you look this good you don't have to do anything."
Dawid: takes a hammer and smashes laptop. now you do
It's sexy and it knows it.
Lol wtf comments like this now and then are
life of youtube.

My boss had one of these. He always ran the sounds at 100%, which was quite awkward during on-site sales demos when he'd be goofing off and he'd be checking his investments when the Ferrari would just start screaming those sounds! In retrospect, it was rather funny at how it annoyed everyone.
this laptop assembly really screams the mid 2000s, early 2010s.
I had a similar experience going though my MSI laptop of the time
The CPU in it (an i5 4200M) was also socketed, so granted I could find a mobile chip with the same socket, I could potentially upgrade it to an i7 or something. Thing I won't do even for the fun of it, it was already throttling with its 2 hyperthreaded cores
All Intel mobile CPUs before 5th generation were socketed, with the exception of extremely low-power models used in netbooks.
try cleanign the dust and thermal paste
Pretty much correct, I actually owned a Lamborghini laptop in 2008, I was young and didn't know any better... 😅
@@griefyou1 And had a goodly amount of disposable income lol
I like the modularity, but it does make the disassembly a pain.
Dawid: Good luck wooing a member of the opposite sex.
He's just rubbing in the fact he's happily married.
Gather the villagers and pitchforks. We have a Dawid to cook today.
I dont recall him ever saying he was "Happy" .. but youre correct though, he is married .
@@TheFalseShepphard
you keep using that word. i do not think it means what you think it means.
@@PashaGamingYT INCONCEIVABLE!
@@PashaGamingYT are you gatekeeping the word gatekeeping?
Damn! I clearly pushed my luck too far this time. 😂
Those revving sounds. Takes me back to a time when I made custom themes with crazy sounds for my PC.
reminds me of that crazy predator laptop (just looked it up its called the predator 21x) with a mechanical keyboard, probably the last one of its kind
Reminds me the time when I customized my Windows XP to Windows Vista or Alienware custom themes and later Windows 7 to looks like Windows 8.
That gpu was trying to tap out within seconds of starting skyrim 🤣
it was probably thermal throttling is my guess shame he didn't show the gpu temps it would be hilarious to watch it hit tjmax and slow down
"Good luck attracting a member of the opposite sex" 😆 BRUH
I could tell just from looking at it 😔
@@Probly Lol🤣😂😥😭
Flexing the fact he has Anna.
Might have better luck attracting the same sex ….. 🤯🤫
@@michaelthompson9798 oh fr?? Might give it a go
I own the Ferrari 4000 laptop, it has an amazing carbon fibre shell with beautiful red accents & a custom boot animation. Super neat for an old laptop.
1:54 It actually looks more like the rear end of a Reventon ;)
Agreed
@Hirochi SBR4 S3 TT (DCT) I'm everywhere ;)
Was gonna say that lol
Reventon and aventador was what this was based on, the back of the display is an aventador hood lines
Loool
We need to see a before and after performance teardown (new thermal paste), especially with temps while gaming. Nonetheless great content Dawid! Never knew this laptop even existed! Lol.
Also what I am hoping for. Not only the new paste, but clearly the heatsinks must be venting better now with so much dust and grime removed.
Yes, I was let down by this as well.
Oh yeah! I did the test, the GPU temps dropped by 20c.
you mean, you actually managed to re-assemble it?
@@DawidDoesTechStuff Wow that is quite an improvement! What paste did you use?
You might be aware, but Asus wasn't the only company to go with a supercar theme. Acer had a Ferrari line of laptops, too. I worked at a computer store a good while back and we sold a few of each. Between the two, I kinda liked the Ferrari one better.
Oh, and Acer also had a ridiculous 20" laptop.
yeah I had two of those first one liked the best as they seemed to cheap out on the newer model I remember it came with it's own mouse and mouse pad and cleaning cloth I got told that parts of it were also made out of recycled racing tires, the screen was only 14inch if I remember right.
Doesn’t acer also have a Porsche laptop as well? I swear another brand has a Porsche laptop
@@mexicanoaao that's Huawei X Porsche Design
Hp pavilion had a 24” “laptop”.
Love to see how it runs after you cleaned out the Beaver damn from the heat sink fins.
There's an idea for a new video, how about cleaning laptop vents, replacing thermal paste and thermal pads and mabye upgrading it as much as it's "resonable" and then try running the same games on it and checking the difference and is it worth using it and talking about it in todays standards. Take care :)
So given that this laptop is already running an i7, the only real upgrade that could be made on the CPU side is going with one of the Extreme processors (i7-2920 or 2960XM) but on the GPU side assuming that all MXM sockets are identical, he could in theory go all the way up to Pascal I believe (though the bottlenecks would be bad with high-end mobile GPUs, maybe something like a 1050Ti or 1060 mobile would work). Not sure how much max RAM is supported.
needed a scarf, driving gloves and oversized sun glasses to get the full immersive experience
11:38 Actually the issues with artifacts on character models in Shadow of the Tomb Raider is an issue with all Fermi-based NVIDIA GPUs as well as all Terascale-based AMD GPUs
I would love to see you upgrading it with the best available mxm gpu and see how the sandy bridge i7 holds up
I remember seeing these in person at Harvey Norman in Australia when I was about 15. I remember it being significantly more expensive than other laptops with better specs.
If you hate yourself and do not value your time, check out the 11 inch Acer Ferrari laptop zoom zoom! It is about as fast and as furious as a Fiat Panda. I had the misfortune of upgrading one a few years back - it was a waste of a good SSD!
EDIT - It was 11 inches not 10 - even my memory wants it to fade away!
I always love seeing people review older gaming laptops because they were what I always admired when I was a kid.
Those wires were just the antennas for wifi and easily removed, hopefully the next laptop teardown isn't as surprising as this one was, almost all laptops have more screws than they really need and are a pain to tear down. Wait until you have to work on a dell laptop haha.
Oh yeah! I forgot that when I flipped the mobo the wires were connected to the WiFi card. 😅
I can imagine that a Dell laptop is a nightmare.
@@DawidDoesTechStuff the dell stuff from around the age of this laptop is so stupid that you have to remove the motherboard to access the 2.5" drives 😂
This is a Lamborghini Gallardo-themed laptop with the performance of a Lamborghini Spark 215 Tractor.
Fact: Lamborghini first sold Tractors before creating it's car division in 1963.
Currently, both divisions are under different owners. The Tractor Division is owned by SDF Group, while it's Car Division is owned by Volkswagen Group
"It really doesn't like Lara's clothing for some reason" I think we all can agree with the laptop
It was a big, heavy laptop, that didn't catch the attention of people as you'd expect.
Most just mocked you because it weighed over 8 pounds. Yeah, I had one.
I also had the G73JH and G53SW.
That's right we have one.
There, there, it'll be ok.
I love how a modern Vega IGP completely obliterates this in gaming, it's being held back so hard by that 560. MXM was a cool idea but poorly executed. No normal person will disassemble enough of the laptop to have access to the module and swap it.
you can mod these to support gtx 970ms
@@amdintelxsniperx there are 10 series variants. But i beleive theres a cutoff on mxm compatibility based on gen.
@@mikeymaiku you can get gtx 1080s p5200s but you have to modify the heatsink
" You know what before I ship this beast out, I'm going to eat a sub sandwich while watching a video " Laptop arrives with parts of sub sandwich included.
The case design is pretty damn cool. I had a good bit of fun comparing my RTX3080 Mobile laptop against it. HOLY SHIT, 11 years really make a difference. My god!
how does your laptop run? i'm getting a laptop with the same gpu this christmas so it'd be nice to know from you how it handles more expensive things, maybe like a bit of ray tracing n stuff.
@@softcocoa7794 Runs like butter. CP2077 On High settings W RTX and no DLSS, 75fps. I'm currently playing Vanguard on Ultra settings WQHD 21:9 external monitor, over 100fps. It's a very pleasing experience all around. I've been very happy with the purchase since I got it.
I think a re do with some optimization. The thing doesn't seem to be hitting its limits
Have repaired a few of those in the past, use a razor blade (blade only) width ways to pop those style of keyboards easily, the touchpad part has one screw and a slider to remove, THEN the base off - zero damage required.
I think that will perform much better with a clean heatsink and fresh thermal paste.
I bought a Dell Inspiron with these exact specs in 2011 and I remember it ran CoD: Black ops 2 and Max Payne 3 really well with many of the graphical details enabled. My screen resolution was only 1366×768 though. Did you download Geforce Experience and use the optimised settings for any of the games? I am sure it would have faired better than it did while running Skyrim and CS:GO.
I already love it and haven't even watched it yet
I'm saving this for dinner
my thought exactly
I had a similar laptop in 2011. I could play skyrim for about 10 minutes before it thermal throttled down to sub 25fps. I had to underclock my laptop to keep it at 30fps. Which sounds counter-productive but was the only way to handle the heat.
I recently upgraded a Dell Inspiron from the same generation. I had to disassemble completely just as you did just to swap out the i3 to an i5 2540m. I'm impressed I didn't break anything or lose any screws. Be thankful you have the mid tier gpu. The onboard intel hd 3000 graphics struggle on something like Half Life 2 at 720p with shadows on low.
I remember that Acer was working with Ferrari and Porsche, but thing that might be most interesting for you would be Koenigsegg Razer Blade.
Absolutely love your videos man, my favorite hardware channel and also the funniest hardware channel by a mile. I will see if I will buy something at your shop.
12:08 that's actually the exact same problem I encountered recently with my first ever laptop - power limit throttling; basically the system limits the cpu to like a third of its TDP and undervolts it greatly in order to cool it down, sad to see it was a thing 10 years ago and is still a thing nowadays... (for reference my laptop is the asus vivobook s15 with the i5-1135g7)
I remember seeing this in a catalogue when I was 13 back then, and thought it was the coolest thing possible, like this is it this is the pinnacle of laptops.
I love how Dawid interacts with his subscribers and people who generally watch his videos, nowadays most CZcamsrs don’t even notice or try to talk to their viewers
I remember a relative of mine had one of these. The revving seemed so cool to me.
I love how much the teardown of this laptop reminds me of my old ASUS gaming laptop. My laptop was like a year or two newer and shares a lot of the same frustrations in tearing it down.
Entertaining as usual, keep up the great work.
I had a yellow one and it was and still is one of the best looking laptops I had. Was great for games I used to play back then
12:13 something like that happened with my other old laptop where the fps drops massively for a few seconds then back to normal then happens again, i also noticed the cpu clock speed went insanely low then back up again this only ever happened if i was playing a game the laptop could handle and push out more fps which resulted in using more power, i had this issue because my battery was dying so the laptop didn't like receiving only power from the brick, but the moment i replaced the battery those issues went away so i think thats whats happening with that laptop
This looks very much like the G53 internally which i had back then, re-heatpasting that thing was an absolute nightmare as you can see from the teardown in this xD
Might I suggest a small magnetic tool tray. They can be had for a few bucks at any hardware store. Great for keeping all your small screws contained while working. Keep up the great work, love your content!
4:27 ROFL and that's why I love your channel.
I'd be interested in seeing if upgrading it would help the performance much.
@6:05 that is not soldered down (and has nothing to do with connecting the display to the vga port, as the LCD will connect with a digital lvds connector which is seen at 5:44 above the chipset to the left of the top right fan), it is the wireless antennas that connect to the wifi card at the other side, and can be unclipped
I was looking for this comment. There was no way in hell that was a VGA cable. That is the WiFi Antennas cable that go into the monitor...
Dawid how have you become my absolute favorite youtuber. you put out such amazing content
I think you may need to go to the support page and download drives to get the lights to work
I've worked repairs and refurbs for laptops, and there is nothing worse than checking the in pile and finding a laptop from this time period. Nothing like having to do a mb swap on a mid 2000's laptop filled with months old soda spill, crumbs, etc.
That disassembly procedure feels like the same thing on a XPS 17 L702x, but more nerve wracking
Did you know that you can easy remove the Cables from the WLAN Card?
Would be awesome to watch you upgrade this laptop.
PLZ make a video upgrading this !!!
I had one of Asus giant stealth fighter looking gaming laptops a long time ago. Weighed like 10 lbs and had about four minutes of battery life but it played games pretty well in 2003!
Man this really brings back memories, I owned probably world's first gaming Laptop that was Asus G50V... Using it in my highschool years really makes me feels the coolest kid in the world.. the orange look is really a head turner. This VX laptop was really the dream laptop to have tho.
Clean it.... clean it, 3:38, thankyou Dawid.
Lovely watch
I just love this man's content
I'm impressed with how well it held up it's second gen intel so it's like 2012/2013 ish...and after a bit of cleaning it looks almost like new...
Condition doesn't surprise me from box it came in looks like it came from a laptop recycler..... meaning it was considered trash as some point.....
That disassembly reminds me so much of the Dell laptops we use at work. Have to pull the keyboard and trackpad off of them just to get to very much. On the bright side at lease dell didn't solder the monitor to the motherboard.
I’d love to see this upgraded
For shots and giggles, you should totally pimp it out! See how far you can upgrade the cpu AND gpu, ram, get those mad tail lights working and see if you can find the original Lamborghini skin for windows (or maybe not that part, running windows 7 or 8 doesn't sound as fun). Cool find though.
I actually have the same model a generation later in 2011. Running on the GTX 660M (OC +20% easily). These things are build like a beast back them. Ran mine up to 2020 before joining the PCMR race. 9 yrs and still going strong. They dont build stuff like this anymore these days. And yes, disassembling it was a pain in the butt.
the way you just left all those screws just haphazardly laying around on the table is making me anxious lol
That was some nasty rugs on the heatsinks
I had this Asus gaming laptop years & years ago, I got a Lambo branded laptop bag with it too.
Mine was in orange, its long gone now, I loved that thing, its power connector was very unreliable though.
please do an insane amount of work and fit in as many modern laptop parts as inhumanly possible. Your money is not an object for my amusement. Thanks! But seriously Dawid, all jokes aside, this would be one of the few laptops I have seen that you could actually upgrade fairly easily, not only do you have a non socketed chip, but also 150 watts to mess around with. Imagine what a more modern GPU could do in this machine.
I think you can upgrade the GPU (because it has an actual PCIe connector to a more powerful one, but still with laptop form factor) and even the CPU, if there are any more powerful than the i7 that fit the same socket. It would be nice to see those upgrades and see how big the improvement is
I really enjoyed this video
the laptop is definitely a lambo at heart
What if the original drive that came pre-installed in the laptop included software utilities to activate the rear tail lights on the back of the laptop and such, especially with the laptops webcam, I can imagine the rear break lights lighting up fully whenever you were in a dark room and flashing whenever you were playing games
6:03 Uh Dawid, I have the exact same laptop and went through the same painful process of disassembly and assembly twice and I simply just unplugged those cables which actually lead to the wifi card and I pulled them through the hole. I'm not sure if it was different for you but thats what I did when taking apart my laptop.
cant wait for the next video to be tons of scuffed upgrades
I literally found out about this laptop a couple days ago, and now here are you reviewing it, WHAT ARE THE ODDS?!?!?!
Watching you tear down laptops makes me so anxious
would definitely like to see hardware upgrade of the laptop in the future
Those black and white wires aren't actually soldered VGA port cables. Those are wireless card antennas ending with little U.FL connector.
You should upgrade this to the max
I like the old laptops because you can upgrade almost all components like cpu, gpu, ram, wifi+bluetooth card, ssd/hdd, swap the cd-rom to 2nd hdd caddy, battery.
Really love your energy and enthusiasm for the subject.
Is there a way to buy you a coffee?
Love your vids
God I love the humor of this channel.
That laptop really reminds me of my old asus G73jh, back then I loved the socketted cpu and gpu because with some bios modifications I was able to upgrade my system and keep it relatively viable for a while. Nowadays I've just learned to expect less of laptops and stick with my desktop
It was based on the G53SW, so it is quite similar. Hopefully Framework manages to succeed in their goal of bringing back repairability.
These Windows XP to Windows 7 era laptops that are branded with car logos are so cool in my opinion
I can understand the attraction.
For me it would need to be pure AMD ROG Strix Ryzen 9 5950x + RDNA2 + 64GB DDR 4 + 2TB M.2 + AIO water cooling.
Smaller side bezel.
i still want to know which 5 star Gordon Ramsey restaurant the previous owner went to in order to have such an exquisite Keyboard Meal.
I wanna see a reassembly video.
Oh man, I always wanted one of thoughs.
I NEED this.
No cap the laptop looks sick!!!!
Reminds me of trying to get into my HP DM1Z Netbook, to re-paste the APU.. what a nightmare.
Upgrade it to the max
Love it! Upgrade the laptop on eBay, you can probably still get the parts
Hell yeah! A Futurama reference!
Very excellent video as always though this piece of tech has more nostalgia for me than some others.
This was released during the near decade I worked for Pegatron (and Asus directly to begin with), the spun-off manufacturing/ODM/OEM arm of Asus in engineeering support for a US repair facility. There seemed to be a lot of units on this G53 platform that came back needing repair, though there were certainly less of the Lamborghini units that would pass through simply due to the non-branded G53J/JW/JH/S/SW/G/GW/etc (and the G73 17" models too) simply having more units sold...a lot of GPU and screen issues I think but don't remember for sure. I personally had a cheaper Asus G51J 3D at the time (well, 3-4 years I think), which was a slightly older model than the G53 but still supported 3D Vision (had a i7-720QM and GTX 260M if I recall correctly and a lower res display). It was certainly cheaper than the Lamborghini models. But...I did get one of the notebook tote bags for the Lamborghini from an Asus employee, which I still use to this day (even though it's currently holding an Acer laptop...). I've just uploaded a few second video of it which I'll link in a reply to this (because I don't want YT eating this comment in case it decides it doesn't like the video link).
Here's the companion tote bag for the VX7 that I have: czcams.com/video/oVatyyWtlyA/video.html
LOL i had the same Asus notebook with i7-720QM, the gpu died and i was able to swap it out with an i7 that had IGPU, and it randomly worked just fine lol
@@BenchmarksIT haha 👍
Anyway to upgrade this? Would make a good follow up episode!
