I honestly respect you for all your rebuilds and fixes on Laptops, computers, consoles and tech! The knowledge you possess to fix them is beautiful, and your presentation is top quality..I’m so fucking glad that I subscribed to your channel! Keep up the good work sir! Love ya sir!☺️👍🏼
I just stumbled upon your channel recently and I would just like to say that it is extremely therapeutic to see old computer hardware receive deep cleaning and restored to like new! Subscribed!!!!
I love watching you restoring old gaming laptop, please restore more old gaming laptops, they just look so much complicated and different than modern laptop
I actually never seen an early ASUS ROG laptop before TH-cam recommended this video to me! I can also tell by the keyboard layout and stickers that this was originally purchased in Taiwan.
Because of you i started restoring laptops yesterday my friend gived me acer aspire 5472 and it was overheating i changed thermal paste and instaled windows 8(because of hdd 5400rpm disk) and it was fast and running cool
Watching you gave me confidence to open up my 2009 XPS 1645 and re-do the thermal paste, which had baked itself to death. The old warrior is much happier now!
I had this Asus Laptop, sold it to a friend 2 month ago. Still everything was functioning, screen was awesome, really nice colors. Thx for sharing the video!
Yeah 720p at a higher frame rate would have been better. Windows 7 (or XP for older games) would have been better too; you can easily set up dual booting on a 1TB SSD.
Yesssss I really wanted to see laptop with core 2 quad I've never seen a laptop with 3 ram slots, that's amazing Hope you see much more of videos like that one Take care, bro
Thanks for video, it’s always nice to see a dedicated work. And the way you shoot is really good, every step is visible. I recently purchased the same model, but 16 inch (G60VX) and was bothered by GPU, not showing its load. I already started to think that gpu is damaged somehow. But with your video, I understood that it’s more like a “feature” of ASUS implementation 😂
8:38 If you (or anyone watching) wanted to go a step further, you could use fine grit sand paper, or even possibly even just a fine polishing compound and a rotary tool and buff out those scratches completely. Much the same as plastic headlight restoration on a car is done. A coat of gloss / matte clear coat (depending on your preference, gloss if you are doing headlights) and it will look better then new. You can check out some automotive youtubers for the headlight restoration for more details.
Just to tell you, your new intro is awesome. It is simple and great. Usually probably 99.9% of time, the laptop screen is so clean I start to really notice the fingerprints on my phone screen. Awesome video Andrew and keep up the good work!!👏👏👏😀
Great work, it's like the laptop was almost dead and a surgeon gave new life for him! BTW: I tried for the first time to disassemble a laptop last week and I made it! Unfortunately, the laptop had major problems and repairing was too expensive, but I have another one waiting for disassembly. Your videos are really inspirational, thank you!
I love so much when the people restores their old equipment to give new life and reuse... would be great if some of the discard equipment will be donated for poor schools and kids on poor countries.
I want to completely clean my laptop like you. I have a Dell Inspiron 1564 which idles around 75-80 degrees. But this is the only laptop I have and I don't wanna break it.
damn, i had g50v and g71 whilst on high school, imported from the USA, didnt sell in czech republic at all ... all i remember it was heavy, loud, hot and good :D
Maybe a tip (but not for beginners) : Liquid metal instead the thermal paste. But careful to corrosion in case of irregular maintenance. A PC of this age could be fine with this.
Hi Andrew. Every video is getting better. Of course, it depends on the material you get for the job. I want to dwell on just one. Technology is advancing but. Personally, I think that older computer models are better and better made. Now that is not the case. Almost all new motherboards are integrated. Processor soldered to the board together with the graphics chip Update Memory - SSD or HDD drive. Eventually display. The repair is not worth it unless the laptop is expensive or has some other gift value. The quality of consumer electronics used to be far better than it is now. This is proven by Andrew, who restores computers to factory condition from 2008 until today and who can still be used for a large number of jobs. Apart from the basic ones on laptops, there is a video - audio word processor and a few more. Some can work with both 2d and 3d cad programs and are 10 or older. Of course with a small update. With new models other than professional workstations, this is impossible. You buy a computer with the given technical specifications and that's the end of no update.
Thank you bro 😀 and I agree with you, you are totally right. Nowadays the only fully upgradable laptops are just few models from Very High End Class, they support upgrade but you have nothing to upgrade because are already Maxed out. I really miss quality and upgrades ability that was in the past
@@ComputersAndTechAndAndrew Thanks Anderw for the reply. Your answer always inspires you further and some things are learned. Finally, a saying. Who knows and knows that he knows follow him. He who does not know and does not know that he does not know, bypass him. Thank you. Bojan
I have the 2008 model and I really enjoyed it. Eventually the small screen that showed the battery status, temperatures, and a few other things stopped coming on. It was limited to 4gb DDR2. Yeah, the model you have is far greater than the one that I have, but it ran so well back in it's day.
A few days ago I restored an Alienware M17X 1st release. The specs are very similar, exept the nVidia 730i chipset, which gives me the opportunity to use 8GB of DDR3 1333 and GTX 260M SLI graphics. This massive beast weights over 4.5 kg and its chassis is fully made of alluminium and magnesium. Such a nice machine which costs about 4000€ back in 2009/2010.
the Q9000 quad is kinda cool they glued togheter 2 dualcores and called it a day XD had one in my Alienware M17xR1 with dual 260m SLI it had a 9400m as a low power gpu and an early version of optimus sort of.
I think that Andrew just need to replace the Neon backlight instead replacing the whole display, or salvage from the broken display with working backlight, anyway, as expected, satisfying video as usual
🎶🎶 When I think about the way we used to be When I think about the things you took from me I know that I am so much better Better off When I look at what I've done, now that we're apart When I look at what I've won, I've come so far I know I'm so much better off and baby you don't belong
@@ComputersAndTechAndAndrew You deserve it. We all learn a lot from your videos. So, I suggest you make a video about how this marvelous professional work began, and where did your learning journey started?
@@ahmedshehatah1822 Thank youu bro :) btw that's good idea for the video, I have planned to do something like that but I wasn't sure is somebody interested for or not, it's going to be long story, because isn't all about repairing computers, I do repair other stuff also, but I will do a video
Finally 96 % Achohol is back with his wife's makeup brush :D

yeah he work so hard to find those parts and combine them as one

You have my hearth bro :D and pin :D

Yes finally you upload!!! Keep uploading as soon as possible we keep supporting and watching this🤗🤗🤗
I had this laptop a few years ago. It was a beast for the time and age. I'm happy to see someone breathe so much life and care into old tech.
I think Andrew is the special customer of iso prophyll ALCOHOL industries
Iso prophyll alcohol is trash 🗑️, better is slivovice or borovička 👍

I like how many older laptops are restored by Andrew😭😊😂
It's so satisfying 😌

Love the over the top "gamer" design of the laptop after all the cleaning. Great job!
Thats why I love old laptops... They're bold and beautiful
Again a laptop video after 1 month
I am excited to watch
Because of you i started restoring laptops yesterday my friend gived me acer aspire 5472 and it was overheating i changed thermal paste and instaled windows 8(because of hdd 5400rpm disk) and it was fast and running cool

It's so freaking rare to have a Blu-ray drive on a laptop nowadars, so having one in 2009 was truly a novelty.
Gaming on 720p would be better on this rog. Great job again! This is a beauty!
Yeah 720p at a higher frame rate would have been better. Windows 7 (or XP for older games) would have been better too; you can easily set up dual booting on a 1TB SSD.
@@TheSpotify95 Best Answer: WINDOWS 8.1😃
I used to have the smaller G51, I remember modding it by fitting 8GB of RAM and a Core 2 Quad Q9000. I miss it.
The time where tech was cool, upgradable, easy to mod and hard to destroy :D
Alienware should continued to make upgradable laptop
Never change the music its so awesome
Thank youu bro 😀
Your videos are soo relaxing :)
Keep that laptop, its a flex to have an early rog
I love the attention to detail!
Thank you bro 😀
Yesssss
I really wanted to see laptop with core 2 quad
I've never seen a laptop with 3 ram slots, that's amazing
Hope you see much more of videos like that one
Take care, bro
I'm always in search for something different and unusual for today :D I will find something again
Im saying this right now.... Andrew's videos are incomplete without music
You're the best laptop/old hardware restoration channel on TH-cam! I've been inspired to fix my old laptops after watching your videos!
Thank you bro 😀
my dream laptop from junior high, the most interesting laptop i see in my very first computer expo
not gonna lie his videos are the most relaxing
That brought some memories for me... my first gamer notebook was an ASUS G51 with same configs.
old gaming laptops look so cool
Almost 300k subs congratulations bro

Got the same model from the company, but in blue - got it for free! fully functional just waiting for the right day. Good work man!
Asus: GASP!! Thanks for restoring. Here's 1 billion dollars!
Beautiful restoration and repair Andrew.

Reminds of the game developer "Fat Dino" that makes RTX remakes of games
Congratulations for 300k Andrew
Happy 300k sub dude, i really like your restoration videos especially with good specs
Thank youuu bro :D
He deserves more subscriber! Moral of the story: your old PC/ laptop is still good,.
Great work, it's like the laptop was almost dead and a surgeon gave new life for him!
BTW: I tried for the first time to disassemble a laptop last week and I made it! Unfortunately, the laptop had major problems and repairing was too expensive, but I have another one waiting for disassembly. Your videos are really inspirational, thank you!
I still own an Asus ROG g50vt-x5! It gets used all the time, still a fantastic device. I've upgraded it with an SSD boot drive and a 1TB hard drive.
300k subs!!!! Congratulations
Thank youu bro :D
I miss his old vids
I love so much when the people restores their old equipment to give new life and reuse... would be great if some of the discard equipment will be donated for poor schools and kids on poor countries.
damn , this is just amazing , you can really see the technology is advancing after years , from chonky machine to thin and powerful machine like G14!
Is my first time when i see one of the first ROG models 😮
Asus laptop from 2009 : I'm done. I'm of no use😔😔😔😔
Andrew sir : hold up man🔥🔥🔥
OH! Those stickers are Mandarin!!!
I want to completely clean my laptop like you. I have a Dell Inspiron 1564 which idles around 75-80 degrees. But this is the only laptop I have and I don't wanna break it.

Bringing an old Beast to life, great work as always
