The best way to buy a laptop is to buy a cheaper version, and upgrade when prices of parts go down.
LOVE IT.
Super SUB.
Thank you for making this clear, concise tutorial. Exactly the kind of video I like, straight to the point and gets the job done right. I was wondering why the back panel didn't come off after I removed the screws (like on my previous laptop), searched TH-cam and found you. Glad I did, now I have upgraded the hard drive and everything works well. I've liked and subscribed, keep up the great work sir!
Thank you for the screw layout, that made my rebuild much more kindly after a misplaced gravity test occurred.
Couldn't be any more concise, it was a great walk through.
Thanks for watching. Dale

i guess im randomly asking but does any of you know of a way to get back into an instagram account?
I was dumb forgot the account password. I would love any assistance you can offer me
You're a great teacher, thanks for giving us a no bs, non click-bait video
This makes me so happy seeing how reasonable this upgrade process is. Got one of these bad boys on the way & look forward to the day I can come back to this video and upgrade to a 1TB SSD & maybe improve the RAM as well. Thank you for sharing!

Nice, no-nonsense, straightforward walk-through.
Many thanks for this. 🙏🙂
Thanks for tuning in! Dale
Thank you Dale ! As good as I was looking for you have this video on this specific model !
Thanks for the vid, just opened up my 2021 TUF. Really happy with my purchase so far
Best video in entire TH-cam...love u sir..may God bless you make more ❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏
same laptop here too, just got it and wanted to at least put another 8gig stick so this video is perfect
I am actually considering this laptop, and was contemplating what upgrade units I should get. I just landed on this video, and all my questions got answered. Thanks man!
I got it 2 weeks ago because I needed one for the university. I'm in love with it, gorgeous performance on games. I play Far Cry New Dawn with everything on high and it still has 1GB of graphical memory for other stuff. It's awesome, the battery is... Fine, I mean, if you disable some stuff like background apps and stuff you can make it last more time, I was getting 2 hours and a half, went for a solution and now it is giving me 4-5 hours. I'm really happy, also, I only play while it is plugged, so I don't know how it would do on gaming without the turbo mode. I'm in love, I can't complain about it, it does everything it has to do. Also the keyboard is really comfortable and it looks really cool. It does nearly no noise unless you're on turbo mode, which honestly, doesn't make that much.
@@chexblu Which one have you got? The i5 version or the Ryzen 5 version? Asking because I just found that this comes in both flavours. Personally, I think I'll go for the Core i5 version with GTX 1650. No idea what is the model name for that one.
@@AceJackHamm3r I got the Ryzen 5 with the 1650.

great video! i have a slightly upgraded model but the breakdown and insides were all the same! thank you!
Dude, I have the same laptop and I was searching for this.
Thanks!
Same
Asus didnt give me extra screws
@@justinmacahilas8871 I thought this too but take off the interior of the box to see if they aren't here
Mine came with a HDD installed and it's the same model
Hi. I have a question. This laptop, does only support red color on keyboard? Or it is RGB?
Great little video, clear, to the point and very informative. Thank you very much Sir.
YEAH! So here I 'am almost a year and I finally bought a new laptop "woohoo". I was on a budget so I bought the Asus Tuf gaming laptop as you have shown here but the FA50611 model. I'm curious as to watching this model and looking at pictures of amazon reviewers with a different model it mine has the second upgradable nvme SSD slot because the picture that amazon reviewer should on Amazon didn't have a second nvme SSD slot only one but when you buy the Asus Tuf it shows in the advertizing pictures that it has 2 nvme SSD slot and additional HDD slop. I mainly got this laptop because after watching you make it look so easy and a friend's advice I wanted something simple but easy to upgrade in the future. Thanks for the awesome videos love watching you keep up the good work and God bless.
Thanks for the video! Really helped me out!
Great Video sir, Is it the same for the 705 Tuf series as well? I have 705 DT Asus tuf series laptop and i feel the ssd upgrade would be very helpful.
Sir, Thx so much for your ultra detailed instructions. Helped me a lot! I was able to add an HDD by myself. I know it may be something trivial for others, but for me it was a totally new terrain.

Absolutely fantastic walkthrough 💯❤
May I suggest you place a 1/2 inch vertical lip on the edge of your workbench. It keeps screws and other parts from rolling or bouncing off. Thanks for the videos!
Thank you for the great explanation... I have this laptop but without an SSD and only 8gb of Ram so its kinda slow and have been thinking of upgrading. Thanks again!
Thanks for watching. Dale
A little late but just got mine thanks for the knowledge!!!
Good job thanks
I just got ASUS TUF Gaming Laptop FX505GT-AB73 was looking for the same upgrade ;)
I bought this pc since 5 months and I got a lot of problems with it but now I know how to fix it for my streaming and videos
thank you so much ❤️
Your welcome. Thanks for watching. Dale
Bro what is its inbuilt storage ? Plzz tell
@@x_.mann_.x 512GB or 256GB
I had one with an RGB keyboard. And had 1TB hdd. I will upgrade with a 500GB M.2 nvme ssd. Soon
@@FFG8G bro i have that one, at the time of putting the m2 I had to have formatted the hdd before, or you can install the windows in the m.2 without having formatted the hdd yet, pls help meeee
This is great!! I am getting a bottle neck at my ram, 1650ti and SSD R5, everything is good but only 8g ram. I have a new Christmas gift coming.
@cadillac - why didn't you keep the other M.2 drive since there are two slots. I like how clean the explanation for this video.
Thanks man! Great guide
Thx for watching. Dale
Thanks for the explanation, a nice video, simple, and very informative.
Thank you much
Excellent video. Very useful. Greetings from Argentina !
Thanks for watching. Dale
this video is very helpful thank you
Very Informative video, very new to working on laptops. But got my mem maxed out and 1tb ssd, but am wanting to add a 4tb HD all the ones I find are 15mm height will that be to tall to fit ??
Thank you for the help
thank you so much man
Can you post the link for everything you bought I really would like to upgrade everything you upgraded
Very helpful ♥️
Hi, just a quick question.
Is there any other RAM slots inside the machine?
Apparently, theres two more of them, but only two accesible slots when you take the lower plate.
And Windows task manager tells me that there actually 4 ram slots.
Thanks
Did you get the screws from the laptop when you bought it and What size screw is it?
Is this the same process of removal and upgrading with the F15 (Model FX506Li ?)
i saw another video of yours dealing with the memory and the NVME drive, but not the 2.5 SSD. Want to be sure I have good information before I buy parts and open mine up. Thanks in advance
This computer on the video is a new one so I have got a question regarding the warranty: could the back cover opening means also the warranty removal? That's something that has been told to me but it's kind of nonsense: Asus provides screws and everything to upgrade RAM or disk but there are those cover screws with this blue thing that tells "it has been opened so no warranty!". Do you have any advise about that? Thanks!... And indeed, this video is awesome :)
Hi there, thanks for this video. I need to order some replacement screws for the hard drive caddy as I think they were thrown with the box. What do I search for on amazon please?
I just bought the Asus TUF A15 that comes with the GTX1660Ti. That model is a little different. Although there is space for the 2.5 inch drive, the connector is different and you need a ribbon cable to install it. That model also brought a second M.2 port that will only take NVMe SSDs.
Forgot to add that the cable to connect the 2.5 inch drive comes in the laptop's box along with the necessary screws.
Hi! do you need an external adapter to USB port for cloning windows? Or you can just install it and then make the transfer?
THANK YOU!
Screw length... Great tip... Thanks...
Yeh man. Thx
So i have a question, if you already have files on your pc do i have to transfer them to somewhere else, if so where and how.
Thank you very much sir!
thanks
quick question what is the physical size of the internal hard drive that is installed
Can you share with us website links to those upgraded parts with prices?
I'm new to all this, and just purchased my first gaming laptop! It's the ASUS TUF Gaming F17 with 8GB RAM DDR4, INTEL Core i5-10300H 2.5GHz, GeForce GTX 1650 Ti and 512GB PCIe NVMe M.2 SSD. Id like to upgrade the RAM for sure. But, I was wondering... Is it possible to upgrade the Graphics card and processor too? And what upgrades would you recommend I do first? I'm excited to make this a side hobby of mine because I want to learn more about computers and how they function.
very helpful thank you
What was the last thing he changed? Did the 2 rams, and added a hard drive.ive just removed my hard drive and change it for a 1t, 2.5 SSD fits in the same slot. But what's the smaller card he changed my laptop has it too
I actually did a similar upgrade yesterday on an FA506IV-HN320T.
Why do you look like if walter white and Peter griffin had a child together that's russian
I have fx505dd and just changed the ssd recently. Since required to install windows, i just noticed the audio quality is no longer as previous. The audio sound seems muffled and i already checked the audio driver is already the latest update. Do you got any idea what need to do?
Hi,my new disk HDD have 7200RPM,but on the asus site, it says 5200rpm, i need to replace it with one?
I will add that it works.
Could you link all the parts so I can find them easily?
Yes please can u put the links for the part? Please
Yea
Hi. Thank you for the video. I bought the Ryzen 9 4900H version of the TUF A15 with the 48h battery. I want to add a 2.5" HDD, for backup purposes and I think the largest 2.5" HDD currently available is 6TB. Will a 6TB HDD fit in the caddy/bay dimension wise? (sorry if there are already comments about this below... didn't have time to read them all)
So long as it is 2.5" it should fit just fine.
I'm only interested in upgrading my RAM from 16GB to 32.Also adding a Hard Drive do I need to do a clean install? Thanks.
Can you tell me what screws it use ? I want to buy screw driver online according to that
Is there a link you could prvide as to where you got the ram sticks?
how is maximum high of hdd which can be installed as a second to SATA, because some of hdd are 7 mm high but some models from seagate are 13mm high, 2TB models or higher. if its no problem to install there and also get back the cover correct. thank you
Finally one with actual instructions!
Thank you.
Yw, dale
@@CadillacComputerCenter If I am just adding for extra storage and already have the old one installed, do I need to install windows 10 again?
What kind of SSD do I buy and how much memory can it take? I see you got 1 TB. But will any SSD work?
Hey, can you tell me which hardware you added?
I upgraded Memory, M.2 and added internal Hard Drive and a clean Windows 10 install. Problem is, when I go to file explorer, this PC, the M.2 shows but not the 2.5 although it was there when it asked me which drive I wanted to install Windows on.
very helpful, congratulations! I own an fx705g with 16gb of ram and I think the procedure to use to upgrade the ram is the same as the FX505 model. Before buying the new ram to install and before opening the pc I wanted to know if it is equipped with 2 banks of 8gb or only one of 16gb. Because in the first case I would have to throw away the two 8gb banks and buy 2 16gb banks while in the second case I would have to buy only one 16gb bank to reach the 32gb target.
Hi, typically these models would have 2 8gb sticks. I've done a few of these, all with 2x 8's. When equipped with 16. Dale
That was fun..thanks
What size screws are those as I didn't get screws in mine
Always disconnect the battery. Got it! 👍
Very helpful, thanks. Mine arrives in a couple of days, and I am looking to add a large capacity hdd for photos, video rendering and music production.
What is the max height for an hdd? Will it take 15mm, or only 9.6mm or thinner?
7mm height and 2.5inch in width
@@shreebadiger8436 Thank you
Nice video Dale, I am deciding to do the same on mine... I just wanted to ask, how do you ground yourself and would a wooden table be a good place to work on? Thank you
Thanks. Wooden table is fine. Might wanna get a anti static wrist band and anti static mat as well. Around 20 bucks on Amazon. Just to be safe. Dale
Appreciate the advice! Keep it up 🤙
Can you add a 2nd hard drive and format it in the TUF laptop?
thanks sir
So this means we don't need SATA or wire/pin to install ssd?
Can the chassis accommodate 15mm (5TB) HDD upgrade
i had this laptop for almost 2 years. ram upgraded 32 gb, 1tb m.2 ssd and 2tb ssd hardrive. but i would like to upgrade the gpu but seems like it is not possible. is there any way to upgrade gpu even if it's external?
Crucial MX500 SSD is working for ASUS TUF GAMING 505DT LAPTOP?
Heya these videos really help me visualize how I'd go about opening my laptop for upgrades
I do have a question though if I had an anti static strap but not the mat where can I bite the alligator clip to to make sure I dont get static on the insides of my laptop?
Hi. There are tons of videos on youtube on how to use one. Basically though, make the wrist band is nice and snug to your wrist, have the metal part firmly against your skin. Once you remove or expose the electronic components, attach the clip to any metal part of the chassis, ie. , hinge etc. Dale
@@CadillacComputerCenter Thank you for the response.
Oh yeah Ive gone through a fair bit of videos already, but none of them really clearly explain where to bite it but I've seen some of them clip to a metal part of the laptop. Anyways, what part of this specific laptop model would be recommended to clip an alligator clip to?
Thanks Dude...!!!
hey i need some help .when i restard with the usb driver . windows ask me a code but i dont know the code . i buy the laptop use . but you on your video they dont ask a code for window ?
Hello was it 512 ssd or 1tb hdd+256 ssd model while u bought it
i cant do this stuff by myself is there anywhere i go to get this done. also i have my 470GB storage almost full if i change it to 1 TB does that all dissapear
Pal, I have problem with my Asus like yours, it not get to booting screen (just showing black screen), just key board lit to the red and power led showing charging that all, what you thinks the problem is? Tq
I was add 8GB DDR into my TUF and second HDD drive into SATA. Thank you for your video, its help me. For other upgraders, when you putting the bottom cover back on the laptop, first you need to click the edges on the front edge where the touchpad is. Because if you click the opposite side where the fan vents are as first, it is not possible to subsequently click the front part, and you could damage / break the plastic handles.
Do you have to install drivers if you only install the storage drive?
is there only one ssd slot for the asus tuf gaming laptop?
awesome walk through! Just have 1 question with the ram frequency this model supports, does it support 2666mhz ram or just 2400mhz?
Hi. It will support 2400, 2666, and 3200. Dale
But always put the same Frequency. If not it will throttle to the least mhz to match the performance.
@@FFG8G Got it! Thanks!
A good simple tutorial, just personally i think 32gb Ram in this spec of machine is waaaay overkill i think 16gb would be sufficient for this machine
Honestly I did not disconnect the battery or press the power button for 5 secs when I upgraded my RAM.
Laptop still works great.
I did the same thing but after starting my laptop didnt read that particular hdd that i inserted in my laptop
Hey i accidentally removed the black paper over the ran slot? Is it a problem or not?
Where can I get the extra screws, because I lost mine
Helooo. I have same Lapotopo and i whont to add more hard drive.i have 1 from the last one . My qastion is : did i lost my Warenty if i open it like you do? Tnx
Does the Hard drive box come with the screws?
Can I know what's the specs of the mechanical hard drive that u installed?
Can i just add a 1tb ssd in the empty slot? Is it 'plug and play'
I just recently tried to upgrade to 16gb ddr4 2400 (PNY) on the fx505 laptop but when I did so I just got a blank screen, fans were spinning and everything but the screen just stayed black, never booted to bios or anything. Tried hooking up to a tv and same thing. I talked to asus support and they said the ram had to be at 3200mhz. Has anyone encountered this problem?
Hi! i'm getting here a little late but I want two SSD in this laptop, so I can make a dual boot (linux / windows) and have separate ssd for each OS. Is that possible?
Hey Sir! I wanted to ask you about the RAM which was already there inside your laptop. Which company was the RAM from and can you tell me the specsfor it please because I can't afford two sticks of ram at the moment. Thanks and have a nice day!
