THANK YOU!
Hey guys, just launched our new website about laptop upgrades. Cool templates, help you upgrade/swap or even repair your laptop with mapped motherboard images.
Also added a request form, so if any laptop is missing, just ask and try to add them as soon as possible. ;) Reach us @ bit.ly/34k1SLL
Hey Do you know what kind of thermal paste was used? I picked up Kryonaut Thermal Grizzly to use on everything but the liquid metal part and wanted to be sure that's ok since I hear it's not good to use on copper touching parts.
If you have any question, let me know and will try to help. Hope you like the new (way longer and "ASMR" type content) :O
how to buy it lol
Is the back case made of plastic?
hi, what is the maximum memory we can add in the slot ?
Hi ! how can i clean the keyboard ? Should i remove key by key or there is another way ?
What size torx head screwdriver do you need to?
this is exactly what i needed, my zephyrus needs some love now after over a year since i got it. need to replace the power jack and the fans are rattling violently with intervals, and the main screen has a bunch of lines running horizontally at the bottom that mirrors the image from the top, since my cursor projects to the bottom lines if i position the cursor to the very top of the screen.
Hey, I'm having the fan rattle and the display lines issues with mine, did you ever resolve either? If so, what did you do? Thanks in advance
What size torx bit did you use to open this laptop? Is it necessary to remove the battery in order to add a new M.2 SSD?
Torx 5 (but I advise you to get a kit that contains 4-7 Torx screwdrivers). No, it is not necessary to remove, just disconnect it to avoid any short circuit during the installation process. (I installed many m.2 SSD with connected batteries, but this is a precautious step for the beginners)
Which is better for you? Liquid metal or Thermal paste?
Obviously liquid metal. ;)
Question please, it's fine to keep the stock thermal paste on the GPU & VRAM like you did in the video?
Will it void warranty if I take it apart just to clean my fans?
Depends on the region you live/bought from, but usually it will not void your warranty.
can you make a video how to change the keyboard ?
Hey I was wondering, I followed these steps and reapplied my thermal paste and cleaned out my fans and when I plugged everything back in my top display isn’t working now. I’ve plugged and unplugged the display cable multiple times to make sure that wasn’t the issue and it still wont display the screen. Any ideas?
Thanks, for you video i can upgrade my notebook
i replaced the thermal paste again my laptop and when i disconnected the white connector tou remove at 12:30 the soldered connection to the motherboard followed with it. my question is, whats that cable for?
Hi, thanks for the great video - my model is 48gb max memory i want to upgrade to a motherboard capable of 128 , do you have link to the recommended motherboard?
Hello, i have this laptop and would just like to clean the fans. Is it possible to remove the fans without removing the whole heatsink system as you do in the video?
Thanks for your answer!
Are there any seals on the back? I dont know how it looks like but this right corner which you are showing at 3:25 seems like one
That is a clip, holding the screw in place. It is a design choise by ASUS to lift up the back cover when you are untight it. But those screws are non-removable.
@@MakaiTechReviews thanks for this great vid man. Ive suffered with those temperatures for quite a lot, 10min under pressurized air and 20/30 celcius temperature drop !!
I got all my screws mixed up. There is blue and brown ones and I have no idea where they go back
Can you do this any slower? I have this on 2x and it seems like you're working at what a normal speed (and this is 2x speed!)
Thanks for great video, it helps alot repaste mine
thank for your help, but you need to make the text more easier to read for sure
I would mention that you also need to repaste everything else not just cpu when you disassemble like you did. You are going to confuse lot of people especially new
So uhhhh I need some help....I bought a new ssd in hopes of upgrading storage, but when I opened the laptop the screw holding the old ssd was rounded out somehow and wouldn't budge, so I tried a couple methods to get it out and ended up breaking the top of the screw off....switched out the ssd though but didn't know I should've disconnected the battery first...and when I tried to close the laptop I found out 2 of the torx screws to attach the bottom of the laptop were missing....and now it won't turn on. It charges, I plugged it in and it seems the laptop is in fact still alive I think, but it itself won't turn on...so do you know any way I could undo these mistakes...?💀
Fvck dude I'm sorry..
Hi
Do you think it is possible to install a heatsink for SSD? How much space is free (vertically speaking)?
Great video! I am watching because my brand new duo ryzen 9 3080, the trackpad is lifting up on the top left corner. I can push it down and it sticks for about 5mins then lifts again, I am wondering what would be pushing it out from inside. Hopefully not a swelling battery. Do you know what may cause this? there is definitely tension of something pushing out the top left corner. Very annoying on an expensive laptop. I am still waiting to hear back from the store where I bought it. Even if they could replace it, it looks like they are extremely hard to get.
Is it using liquid metal before you replaced it with thermal paste? I'm curious about this laptop using liquid metal, i have one and the temperature seems terrifying, idle can be 60°c and gaming between 78-90°c sometimes spike to 93°c, is it true they using liquid metal or only gimmick?
Yes it does use liquid metal (but only in the CPU). As of your temperatures, these are "normal" numbers. As long as you are not experience any thermal throttling you are good to go.
hi, why is the wifi card not replaceable? thanks
Because it is soldered into the motherboard. Technically possible, but not the "easy user friendly mode". It requires soldering/heatgun to do so...
@@MakaiTechReviews thanks
Hi there, nice vid.
I have an Asus Rog Zephyrus Duo 15 SE 4k with 3080 gpu and ryzen 5980HX and my processor run very hot most of the time in idle even in idle mode. In Performance mode I have 95 degrees and going up to 100 and I wonder what is wrong with it.
The GPU stays normal in 65 degrees most of the time. I've checked the fans, and had some dust, I clean them, but I do not understand why my cpu runs so hot, is even giving me frame drop and is quite annoying having it all the time running so hot.
I understood that it might be related to the Armoury crate software, or I need to undervolt my cpu, since you said that the liquid paste you do not need to change it ever.
Please help me out with some thoughts !
Thanks in advance.
Can't we upgrade the CPU & GPU ?? (ROG Zephyrus Duo 16 2022 & 2023)
Hey man, thanks for the video!
Quick question please at 9:55 can you let me know what type of material is holding the speakers in place without a screw? was it a cloth tape or what exactly? thanks again and looking forward to your help! : )
Those are somesort of spongy bricks sticked to the holders. Technically a bumper and also a holder to keep the speakers in place.
Szia,az akksi újrakalibrálása vagy feljavítása mennyire volt sikeres?
Do I need to remove battery for ssd addition?
No need to "remove", but I still suggest to at least uplug it to avoid any short circuit during the removal/installation process of the SSD.
Thanks for the video, quick question, which ram is best for upgrade?
Crucial 1x16gb 2300 to 3400?
Corsair vengeance 1x16gb (mhz??)
Or other options?
I prefer Kingston HyperX for best performance
@@fourlegged_chickenI know it’s been at least a year since you replied, but I’m looking to max out the ram to 48gb. Would I be able to just throw 1x 16gb stick in it?
@@smurdockmail if i have it, i would do dual channel 16GB x 2 (32gb). 48gb is an overkill, you probably wont max it all out if you just gaming and some video editing if your hardware bottlenecks. 32gb is enough for average laptop/pc enthusiast
How did you get yours in? I ordered mine on Feb 3 and its still on back order 🙃
What did u pay for yours
@@THE-HOLY-SPIRIT I got on Adorama for 4k
@@thatmewh786 still on back order 🥲
@@solopenguin514 oh okay well I got the 4k 3080 model for 5600 AUD
@@solopenguin514 mines on back order as well these are seriously popular laptops haha just like the ps5 crap it's happening again from greedy scalpers
Question why didn't you clean off the old thermal paste from all the other parts ?
This disassemby is only for educational purpose.
hey, does the laptop with 16Gb ram have a free slot for additional memory? Can I install it myself without losing the warranty?
Well, it depends on the configuration you have, but usually the 16GB is integrated yeah, so you will have a free slot for future upgrades. (16+32GB as a total). As for the warranty it is also depends where you live.
@@MakaiTechReviews i have 8gb on mainboard and 8Gb in free slot, model is gx550lws-hc030t. Im in Poland, suggest?
I have a problem, I applied liquid metal, put everything back and the top screen is not working
Did you put the display cable back during reassembly? @15:35
I thought its was a LIQUID METAL instead of thermal paste attach on CPU & GPU .... So this is Thermal paste only ? (Sory english is my secondary language) .... & try to apply liquid metal on cpu & gpu instead of thermal paste
Yes, that is correct. The CPU comes with liquid metal, what you see is normal paste on this model, but only for testing purposes. Don't worry, the default paste on the CPU is liquid metal. But on the GPU it is still "regular paste"
This is not the AMD rog zephyrus duo SE... This is the older version right?
@@MakaiTechReviews it has a different color
Sorry but this is the last year's model.
Correct, fixed the title. Thanks for the feedback!
👍👍👍👍👍😎
