- Hi everyone, thank you for 28:49 of your time. In this video I restored, upgraded and Mod the ASUS Republic Of Gamers G73SW. This laptop were for parts only, but fortunately some major parts where still functional. The GPU I got it from Aliexpress, it cost me about 38 euros.
Btw the motherboard is cheap also, available on Aliexpress for about $30-$40 ( in case if you need ). The motherboard is available with 2D and 3D connector, the motherboard in this video is with 2D. The 3D connector is placed above the 2D. No other difference.
This model is predicted to be used with 16GB of RAM but I place 32 coz to see the performances.
Games in this video: Battlefield 3 Premium, Crysis 2 and GTA 5

He forgot to say " While cleaning these types of screen, you should be aware that the liquid doesn't damage ur display ";)
Yeah😂
yeahhh...🤣🤣
If the screen is glossy you can put liquid in it as long as it doesn't go inside trough the bezels... only the matte layers get ruined by liquid, but I actually used liquid to remove the crap matte layer of my laptop and the screen looks miles better in terms of visual quality.
LoL
And I thought,that now he knows that all of his audience has learnt WHILE CLEANING THESE TYPES OF SCREEN,U SHOULD BE VERY CAREFUL
I have to say. This is the best laptop design ever. Removable GPYU, removable CPU?! Full keyboard layout? I WANT ONE
Many of the older laptops are very flexible and upgradable about upgrades, new ones not really :( I really miss when all was upgradable
no kidding -_- I had a newer lenovo y700 gaming laptop before and I was bummed about only upgradable ram and drives. I think all laptop creators should make all laptop upgradable again but all the exact same socket for gpu's. plug n play type of stuff.
@@ComputersAndTechAndAndrew yeah, I miss those days also.
@@harveybrooks1460 well i guess they make it like that so the company will have more profit, when you want to upgrade your CPU or GPU you need to buy a new laptop.
Those days are still around you just have to do your research is all. A big hint that the cpu and gpu can be replaced is the laptop thinkness
I love the cosmetic changes that you add to your restorations. Your creative personal touches really makes these restorations special.
I love the way how Andrew says DamagED
Me too
dam-a-ged :)
This is one of the most exciting ones because it's a old gaming laptop. Good job! :)
Watching this on the same machine, but with HD5870 GPU.
yeah they even have cemos battery
sleeper laptop 😳🥶😫
When you dont know what to say

I love how he always cleans it so well and really detailed. Now that's what I call restoration.
We live in a world where consumer electronics is tossed in favour of the new shiny one every year around Black Friday and Christmas, spurred on by CZcamsrs who always talk about the shiny new thing when one comes out.
Content like yours where you not only reuse but actually repair devices considered lost causes and make them usable again is damn refreshing.
I love how you show what can be done with old devices, making them functional and modern looking! :)
One of the dislikes is for the person who tossed this laptop.
Hahahaha, sure !!!!! :)
Not really, probably the owner has buy a new laptop
This is my favorite video so far! You’re not only an excellent technician but also a really creative artist 👍🏼☺️ keep going please!
Thank you bro :D
Wdym artist
@@System3200artist is not only for drawing
This was such a satisfying video to watch. This has quickly become one of my favorite tech channels. Thank you for putting these videos together! It's inspiring me to perhaps get an old laptop and mod it myself!
Me:What should I use for cleani...
Andrew: %96 isopropyl alcohol
monica says "alhohol"
You should respect him bro he's trying his best to speak English for us.
@@markhensonurzua7523 I respect him. It’s just a meme
make it 69
@@YumiNeeosu hehe funny number SEX
When is saw the notification i literally went : YESS YESS NEW VIDOE
For some reason i really like these restore/upgrade/modification videos such as yours.
Keep the amazing videos comin' bro!
I bought a G73 back in 2010, my first laptop and it still runs great! I love these laptops.
This was my first ever gaming laptop! I absolutely loved it, glad to see another in the wild getting a refresh.
Never get bored from your content ..
Bruh... Your videos are really interesting... Even a non-techy person would love your videos. Keep up the good work Andrew.
*Laptop that has been sitting into hell after death*
Cat and Andrew: Nothing too serious
😂😂
His accent just make it more enjoyable for some reason
What accent is he using?, I want to learn too coz it's easy to understand
"Sub waffle"
It's So satisfyin to see something being repaired by him, and the way he said "Laptop" too
You're just the best 💯 , every thing about this video is just perfect 👌
Been watching your content for about 4 years, Super cool videos. Your videos helped me get my hackintosh setup all them years ago. Thanks man.
keep posting more, love the way your able to "simplify" complex issues
love this guy's detailed and dedicated works!

When I saw the webcam on this laptop illuminati confirmed music started playing in my head lol
Same lol

i use you on my pc,because windows 10 is trash,and xp is so unsupported
@Gaming York yea,windows update,but most of latest programs still work on windows 7 like browser(you can still use latest chrome)unlike xp ur stuck with firefox 52
@@bokexd3173 Thats Great!
Loved watching this because it brought back memories. My first laptop I owned was the ASUS ROG G73JW, one of the models in the same line. Great job with the video, and for getting an old machine like this some life again.
Re-Watching another great episode by Andrew. Can’t get enough of these restoration videos!
WTH! ANDREW! You're so amazing dude! You exceed the expectations! Thanks for inspiring us in your vlogs. Keep it up dude.
!!!!!! here in case you run out of !
That back white light to different colours is genius ❤️❤️❤️
It is so satisfying for me to watch restoration, repair and nodding this kind of laptops because these videos remind me of the time when laptops where upgradable, not like now when pretty much all the components are soldered to the mb and probably, with the arm Macs, the ram, cpu and gpu coming all in one chip.
I have an old G75VW and I'm inspired to fix those little problems I live with. Great job!
I also have a hobby of restoring things, your videos are inspiring!
A little bit of a tip Andrew, when it comes to the fans and hinges, avoid brushing towards the moving parts as they are lubricated and if you get dust in there it could affect some of the movement. Something I learned when working on a few repairs. Also, IPA can also be used on the board if there's any liquid damage, it can help really easy some times, even just for cleaning dirt. Just wanna make sure to tell in case but if you do, don't get IPA in the fans or hinges as it ruins the lubrication. Anyways nice video as always, showing people that this is really fun and easy. :)
te amo ... mami
I love your videos. Keep up the good work. So satisfying to see the dirty broken pieces get cleaned and fixed.
I love the attention to detail with which you cleaned ALL the components. The expertise and precision is also awesome! The Asus G73 was my first and really fast gaming laptop back then! I was the king at LAN parties with that thing! It makes me feel nostalgic! Sub for sure!
Wonderful restoration! Beautiful finish and great upgrades. You have such great patience for fixing the smallest details. I learned a few things too about keyboards. Thanks for the education.
Thank you bro :D
You deserve a million more views! Subscribed! Keep up the great content!
Good work man, very informative. Not to mention I owned a G73JH way back and seeing this one torn apaprt and put back together was wondeful.
This was my first gaming laptop.. purchased shortly after released. Absolutely loved it! Gamed all through my college years and took this behemoth to classes 😅
Awesome video as always! So excited for every uploead, keep up the amazing work!
!!!!!! here in case you run out of !

That's dope 👌❤
Thank you bro :D
What a name🤣
Asus G73JH most in depth tear down , modded I've seen. Nicely done!!!
This was the first gaming laptop I owned, got mine in 2011. Ever since getting this one, I have only been gaming on gaming laptops. I game in the bedroom, the home office, the kitchen, the living room, even in the backyard in the summer. I cannot imagine myself going to the same room, the same desk every time to game as I am not a streamer. Gaming laptops are awesome and this restoration was very well done. Thank you.
You are my favourite youtuber Andrew. Your content are Great. This video is one of the master pieces
Finally New Video, I love watching your vids
this is wild. I can't believe you took this to such extent. congratulations, you're a true genius
I love what you do with the custom keyboard light! And that gpu is a steal! This has been my favourite video of u so far
After watching this video i am loving my ROG Strix Laptop even more
ROG Strix are very beautiful laptops and very powerful
Oh, me too!
Very handy laptop, and has decent battery life for a mid range gaming laptop!
@@ComputersAndTechAndAndrew yea especially the SCAR 15/17
Hello andrew, i'm one of your subscriber from Bali🙏.
I really love ur videos, you've done such a great job 👍👍
Thank youu bro :D
I had this ROG twice..this model also works as an HackIntosh..great job again
Man you really transform the laptop good work. Awesome video
You have a unique channel and it is truly enjoyable. I am about to update a laptop. I bought the Dell Inspiron B120, the first laptop I ever had. I look forward to restoring it.
Mais um excelente vídeo Andrew. Fico feliz demais quando vejo notificação nova do seu canal. Extremamente satisfatório ver um laptop ser restaurado. Saudações do Brasil.
Agora somos três, kk.
4 agr! kkkk

Your patience is a bless. Great work.
How satisfying! The change from trash to powerful gaming machine.
wow what a cool upgrade and reassembly process, love this channel :D
Thank youu bro :D
Excelente vídeo! Gosto de ver como você dá vida a equipamentos já esquecidos do público em geral, e mostra que eles ainda podem ser confiáveis.
This is the best video I have ever seen from Andrew modding laptops.....this laptop gives so mouch options for upgrades....really cool mate
Your thermal paste application was top notch. Nice Restoration/Video.
I love this type of restoration, I learn a lot, greetings from Panama
AWESOME! I used this laptop as my video editing workstation and gaming from 2011 to 2016 so this is very nostalgic. I remember the nightmare of upgrading the ram, having to get at the inaccessible dimms... I also cracked the screen and had to go through that whole disassembly. Even had an adapter to swap the DVD rom for an extra SSD. For better of for worse, They don't make 'em like this anymore. Great Job!
Same. I had G750JZ and it cost me almost same price in repairs what I had payed for it (1500€). I broke keyboard ribbon, my power socket died and had to replace it, replaced the hdd/ssd ribbons, replaced optical drive for hdd bay, replaced the power plug again, replaced the motherboard, replaced the gpu, replaced whole cooling copper section, replaced the fans, still have 2 at home haha, replace whole keyboard chassy (since the ribbon cable ripped I had no choice but to buy whole chassy as it was a single unit), replaced the battery.
It served me well and gave me many insights in how laptops are build and work. It was also one of the last laptops to actually have dedicated GPUs like 880m 980m that were made for laptops and not down binned desktop variants like we have today max q variants and so on.
@@JustOneGuyyo wtf you did not let it die lol
@@MozharGamer because it was all i had. I also broke most of the things that i broke. Also because i was stupid haua
I used to have this laptop too before, thx for making vid about this laptop, it gives me nostalgic moments
Probably the sickest restoration yet!
That's a beautiful laptop right there
I enjoy so much pls more videos about old gaming laptops
I seriously cannot believe I never thought of the keyboard mod! Bravo dude. Will be doing this on my original g75vx with unlocked bios and overclocked 670mx.
You did an excellent job on cleaning/servicing the laptop. I do that a lot with my computers and my clients as well.
the video that ive been waiting!!!
That was a great upgrade and restoration video :) Loved how you got it from pretty much useless to a high spec gaming machine :)
Not many laptops out there with four RAM slots, upgradable CPU and upgradable GPU :)
P.S. I knew why you were going for the i7-2670QM - so you could have 32GB RAM - and that's what I'd have done also :).
Can you add the RAM info for purchase. I'm having a hard time finding it.
I think that was the cleanest thermal paste application I have ever seen on CZcams! Nice!
I bought this laptop back in 2010. Seeing it restored was so heartwarming to watch.
I was "I need something, something than inspire my soul" and then I found these video.
I really like these vids i would like to see more consoles Hi from Greece
Thank you bro :D I'm planning something about console soon
I really admire the way you work. Step by step and very clean in every step. A fan from the Philippines! Keep on restoring friend.
You're work is always so good. Well done.
Fact:- this is a really:- legendary person 🔥🔥
Use either : or -
Not both
Also "this is a really:- legendary person" is incorrect
The :- is unnecessary

YOU ARE AMAZING MAN . PLEASE UPLOAD MORE VIDEOS !! 🔥❤️😍
Wow, you really went overboard with this one!
Loved it!
Bro I don't know how you didn't stress out when you were taking the screen apart. Awesome to see that some people still appreciate old technology.
9 min ago! I can't resist clicking this Haha 😂🤣🤣
Same here
I usally keep the videos to watch at the night xD
@@xbyxenos3200 lmao i usually keep the video to watch while eating

At work? ,,😂😂😂
Huh...an AZERTY keyboard. Don't usually see that kind this day, in my place that is.
Me too man
That silicone on the speakers tip is just what I needed! Have the same problem with my old Lenovo laptop 🙌🙌🙌
It is always nice to see someone breathe new life in to older gaming laptops.
when people asked him what was he doing for this entire day.
Him: **i was testing**
wow i just realised that the keyboard isn’t the usual QWERTY but it’s an AZERTY.
Amazing restore work! I love your channel.
Very satisfying to watch.
Keep it up, buddy.
👍🏻😎
Andrew can please restore a old Sony Vaio laptop
What type of keyboard layout it is? Q on A place, W on Z place etc.
It's a French layout :)
AZERTY type French keyboard layout
It's also an Belgian keyboard layout. BTW, I'm from Belgium.
@@aldwinpanny10 me too ;)
It's Like AZERTY
Now this is a clean and a pro job. The best i ever seen you won a subscriber thanks for this amazing experience.
Always glad to see you rock hard! All best to my old friend :-)
I feel blessed watching this video ngl😌
Imagine this man is a dark souls priest and can restore your humanity by parts
I really like the creative solutions in your work. Very good job. Keep doing
This is a beautiful video, so much passion and dedication to the art of refurbishing.👌
Ahhhh shit, this makes me wanna see my G75JT getting restored 🤣
Pretty funny how the GPU in this actually gets beaten by the integrated ones in ryzen processors

Yeah :D but I like it
@@ComputersAndTechAndAndrew omg u actually replied u are so nice!
