I love how much care you take in rescuing these machines!
Hello
Hey Andrew, I guarantee that the motherboard did not get warped from bad packing by the seller. Fiberglass boards are extremely strong and very flexible. You can try bending a dead one to see if it will stay bent and you will find that it always comes back to the original shape. Great channel, my friend!
I work on laptops on almost a daily basis and I can assure you they can get bent like that in shipping.
Hi bro, I know that the seller try the best, he send fully working tested motherboard I cannot denied that. We have conversation and I suggest to use little bit larger boxes, the box is little bit tight, btw I have this problem several times :D in larger box there is more space. The post service sometimes trying the best but sometimes they don't really care
@@ComputersAndTechAndAndrew Hi friend, a great channel - I have the same device with stuffing, but only from HP, but unfortunately and to my misunderstanding BF 2042, it works extremely poorly - 20-25 fps (((The processor is the same, the same amount of RAM and the same video card - although the game is installed on HDD.
Agreed.
True, i was about to mention the same. Board bending does not happen during postage. It happens when the board is not build in for a long time and is unsupported.
Great video! I’ve performed a lot of laptop repairs in the past, and I’ve NEVER seen a chipset die explode like that! That is insane!
Thank youu bro :) sometimes It's happening, I have seen few only in over 10 years
A freak accident can fry a motherboard like that. Usually here you’ll buy a new used laptop because replacing the motherboard costs as much buying a new used laptop so it isn’t an economical repair.
You are my inspiration,🙃I' m one of the most biggest fan ever .I'm in 10th class now and proudly to say that I have repaired three laptops just watching your videos🙌🤩. lots of love for India.❤️
I rewatched some of your videos yesterday and thought why you haven't update for a long time and boom, new vid today. Keep up all the good works Sir.
Yess finally a gaming laptop again i love these from your channel its a pleasure to watch thanks andrei
one of my favorite channels. so inspiring and yet relaxing.
Thank youu bro :)
Man if all second hand tech was owned by a person like Andrew I would never be in doubt when buying used stuff. Mah man makes them better than from new.
You want to make the super glue dry faster and stick to the plastic better? Use a little bit of cotton around the area you want to repair, then add the super glue. It will act as a substrate between the plastic and super glue, much like how they use carbon or glass fiber on carbon fiber and fiberglass parts. Been doing it for repairs on any car or motorcycle plastic parts for a long time and it works really well. great video!!!
Or a little baking soda poured over the glue while it is still liquid. Dries solid as a concrete.
Love your content. Would be nice is you talk about the total cost of the repairs at the end and a rational profit you could take if resale them. Keep goin!
I love how he says things like "16gb isn't much", and an 512 GB M.2 is a "budget option" LOL Honestly, I don't know where he lives, but I would love to move there 😂
I said that because these days most people are about 32 ram or more, 1TB + M.2, etc. But for me 16 is perfect, enough for anything
@@ComputersAndTechAndAndrew yeah, context of Strix lineup is important here too. I bought this year's model and it comes with 32gb RAM, 1tb m.2 ssd and I added another 1tb m.2. So in regards to Strix - budget option could very well be half of that.
Maybe he is too rich to understand a minimum standard man...if he was born in 1tb of ram and 50tb ssd m2..thats normal..meanwhile we born with nothing or with our first pc s with just 32kb of ram and 128mb of memory storage....
I still have 16gb of ram and its amazing enough...i will upgrade soon to 32gb..and storage i have 1tb ssd m2 and i will add more m2 ssds in the future..but again its too good and is enough i dont even need an upgrade now...but lets leave us which we are normal with normal good technologies and pc s...in my country there are people dying of hunger specially in villages...they dont have a roof above their head for fuck sakes !!! There are stil people with ancient pc s...and still are good and they dont care about that..they are happy about their life..they are enjoying the life as it is...even they are poor with old stuff or worse...this is life ..most of us were born with nothing and we evolved through life experience...from mud to gold and Palaces..and that is the result of our hard work..but these days almost everybody is born in heaven with all top tehnologies phones and pc s..just like kids and these generations nowadays...how the hell they can know the real life and real world if they are born in gold ?!
It sucks living in a third world country
Andrew don't forget the asus ATK driver, some asus laptops will not have backlight until you install the ATK. Great video, I enjoy everything you do!

I hope that you do not have any BGA issues with the laptop on future, because of the motherboard situation.
Anyway, excelent video as usual.
Yeah,many laptops with 6 and 7 gen have those problems,the cooling solution is bad.
@@gabybosskingofspeed and the motherboard bent can help to broke up the bga balls.
But anyway, it's working let's hope for the best :D
I think I will have this problem :D the motherboard is too damaged, but the last solution will be, making one motherboard from booth :D

@@arizalbudiwibowo yea sadly never experienced it before tho hope I never will
Damn, great job on the fix. Too bad that old motherboard is totally dead and unusable, all you can do is salvage parts by soldering.
Nowadays 16 gb of ram is more than necessary for most laptop/desktop computer so I think you've made a good choice in this build.
16 GB is adequate unless you plan on doing demanding video editing, 3D CAD or engineering level work or heavy gaming. Then you’ll be running a quad core machine.
That was an excellent repair and restoration! Most people who have such problems, such as motherboard issues, usually either give up totally, or disassemble the laptop and sell it for its parts only. So it's good that you did a repair, and also got almost everything working again. :)
I always wrap up everything I send well, with good amounts of protection, for the very reason you found out!
Also, the only things I would have done differently is: 1) change RAM to 32GB instead of 16GB, and 2) add optical CD/DVD drive, as the laptop had DVD drive bay but wasn't actually used (and also didn't have 3rd disk).
Hey. Great video. It would have been better if you had said which faulty components you changed at 17:32
Hi bro, mosfet, transistors and one chip, mostly near the GPU where the motherboard is curved more
For plastic mounted threading, it's good to plastic weld it in using a hot iron. I think the glue will come off at some point.
one of the best channel for restoration!! keep it up sir andrew.
Thank you bro :D
High dedication for ROG
If Machines/AI ever take over the world, you'll be our savior/Neo.
Keep up the good work mate. Kudos!
Probably the most satisfying video I have watched in years. Well done.
O portátil realmente ficou espetacular, gosto muito dos seus vídeos e de todas as criações que tem feito, nesta caixa poderia ter aliviado um pouco os parafusos das dobradiças para evitar que venha a partir mais tarde, um abraço de Portugal.

I enjoy all of your videos and thank you for the hard work you put into them.
But, personally, I would never go near any electronics device that has been hit by a lightning strike. The problem that you immediately have is a large number of components in that entire device might not just be burnt out but may also be weakened and fail long before their natural lifespans. Yes, you changed the motherboard but all of the other components (RAM, hard disk, power supply, screen assembly, etc.) could have been affected and therefore cannot be trusted.
Although of a different scale, back in the early 1990's when I was working in telecoms, I had to go and fix a large business phone system that had also suffered a lightning strike. The system was made up of a number of large cabinets with many interface cards to provide extension phones and analogue and digital exchange lines. It took us weeks to fully fault find all of the issues on it - we changed out many interface cards, power supplies, CPU boards, memory boards and phones, and it took us weeks to fix it. We even had some new faults appear (because of weakened components) even while we were fixing the original issues.
You just have no idea as to extent of lightning strike damage.
Thank you bro, I check other parts, and when I saw that are fine I order the motherboard, I agree It's very risky to repair something like this, many times it's easier to buy a new product and cheaper as well
Moral value of this: Never use Any Electronic devices when stormy day. Even make sure any connected devices, like TV and Internet disconnected
Hi Andrew, try to Install Asus Atk package for the keyboard backlight 👍 Often on Asus laptops needs that software/driver to work..
I can see that that Game ready Ethernet Guard Technology worked perfectly 😂
Hello from Turkey. I learned to fix it with your help. Thanks for the simple and clear explanation.
I came across a super glue technique when fixing a laptop hinge. If you sprinkle on some baking soda it makes it harder and thicken up faster. Almost like an epoxy. I'm not sure on the long term strength of it though.
Baking soda is great solution, but with normal super glue, with gel isn't recommended because the gel will lose flexibility, already tried that :D
@@ComputersAndTechAndAndrew that's good to know. I was using it to rebuild where the nuts were in the plastic casing that the screws for the hinge went into. Once I had it built up enough to connect I really used a lot to secure it. It was for somebody else, and I haven't heard anything negative so I assume it is still working. Thanks for the tip.
My kid's "TUF" gaming laptop had both its display hinges just freaking explode one day as she was putting it away. Both sides, at the same time! I don't think I'm trusting Asus gaming laptops ever again.
Fortunately for me, getting into the base and disconnecting the display, wifi, and a few other things produced a still-fully-functional gaming computer for me, so was a win in the end!
ASUS have this problem, the hinges are too gentle for gaming laptop. Gaming laptop need much more durability, better cooling and easy to maintain, this is something that is hard to find nowadays.
Andrew did you install the atk package from Asus ? i had a similar laptop ... without the package it wouldn´t work
Tech God you've done it again. I wish it was mine. Happy Birthday to your dad. Long live your Dad
..and you are now the KING of Restoration!! 2021 . . .
so you literally bought a new laptop, what a repair ;)
why I am obsessed with bald man doing techy stuffs.
Hes back 🔥🔥😭
Sorry to be a nerd but it's a lightning strike not a thunder strike! 👍 Great vid btw
Changed :D
Hi Andrew is there any possibility to upgrade gpu on ASUs g74sx ROG laptop?? My laptop does need great care like in all your repairs 😎
Magnificent
You never fail your subscribers brother
keep uploading we will never stop watching your videos
Thank you bro, I will try to do better next time, more interesting content :)
Cat and Andrew your content gets more interesting by every video bro :)
YOU ARE NOT A GREAT GAMER BUT YOU ARE A GREAT REPAIRER. GOOD JOB!
Well.... Thanks to this video now i know what to do to solved my laptop problem as my laptop was dead because the same problem..... Just a reminder for everyone if your area are known for unstable electricity especially in areas where when it rains, lightning strikes frequently you really need to buy a surge protector or a stabilizer to prevent any unstable electricity....
You are an artist, well done. Pretty relaxing
Thank youu bro :D
Derinlemesine müthiş temizlik ve tamirat teşekkür ederim dinlendirici bir video olmuş...
I am curious, what were the other faulty components you had to replace to prevent random shut downs?
alekishi asked this too. Cat and Andrew's answer: "Hi bro, mosfet, transistors and one chip, mostly near the GPU where the motherboard is curved more."
Changing these things isn't so easy. (tools, instruments,knowledge)
Not possible if components are soldered to the motherboard. A socketed motherboard is repairable. A soldered one isn’t.
Nice restoration. But could have been better to use the samsung 970 evo nvme for the main boot drive instead of the gigabyte, then go budget for the 1tb sata drive.
I agree, Samsung will be much better, but my budget was not soo big :) even 32GB of ram will be great
Nice to see another video Andrew 🐱 keep them coming ☺️
Andrew will fix it to make it Shiny and running
Cada día mejor las reparaciones. Sos muy talentoso.
I like how u narrate this vid bro, easy to understand and sounds calm. Keep it up 😁.
How did you fix the random shutdowns? What component did you change?
I have the same problem with a different rog laptop after win11 install.
I wanna know it too
Some older hardware just doesn’t like Windows 11. Stay on Windows 10.
Wonderful as always!
everytime im watching your videos, its very satisfying somehow. maybe electronics are my fetish. good job on giving those laptops a second and better life.
A pretty good complete video!
Thank youu bro :)
You´re amazing. It´s just like brand new with all the care you put in it.
I see the post office in your country practices the TDS : "trebuchet delivery system".
In France, we have the same problem. That sucks... 😒
Hi andrew! Nice video as always!
Hey Andrew, I believe that keyboard backlight issue is caused by software, not hardware. I had similar issue when I reinstalled windows on my former asus laptop. My suggestion is to factory reset windows 10 (not reinstall, but factory reset your already installed windows 10), thats what actually helped me! I hope you will get it working!
I Had the same laptop. U need to take the old drivers from Asus website. Mine was not working either.
yes, indeed. it worked after installing the driver from Asus support
Another excellent job, and it serves as a reminder that laptops can be a PITA. Dead motherboard, broken hinges, overheating, dust and human particles everywhere, dishonest sellers with terrible packaging, defective replacement parts, secondary failures... yeah, no. I'll take something like your Masterframe 700 monster any day of the week.

Andrew, I love your videos and I wanted to ask: What do you do with all of these PCs?
Do you have an ebay store where you resell them? If so, I would love to take a look and buy one.
If I am not mistaken, he said that most of them goes to relatives and friends... I don't think he resells them.

very nice video!! as always.
for who was looking for the parts:
aparently.. this is this shot of the bios, and there they are:
cpu: i7-7700hq - 4 cores, 8 threads, up to 3.80 GHz (2017 cpu)
gpu: intel integrated graphic 630.
and in the description of the video says: there is also a GTX1050ti !!
I have one with GT1050i. Is it upgradable??
I love your work, as always,.... But you totally need a cat as a mascot.
Thx for another great video, i don't know why but i like those repairing videos a lot :P
Keep the good work man ;)
Missed watching your projects...continue to keep it up
This is the reason why an APC battery back up is your best friend with a PC, haha; at the very least he should've been using a surge protector. When I just had my laptop I was using a cheap surge protector, but after I got my old desktop out of storage too, I spent the $150 on a good battery backup because you never know.
Loctite and baking soda does good job. It cements those metal parts almost stronger than original plastic do. You just need few layers of glue and baking soda (fine powder). Loctite alone wasn't solution for my laptop (although i used green one, it still cracked after i tightened screw a bit.
Hi Andrew bruh,
I inspired from you only for restoring a laptop and I restored my laptop too by cleaning and upgrading my specs and I missed onething that is 96% isopropyl alcohol 😅
Thanks
You: 16 GB RAM isn't enough but it works
Me: Watching it on my laptop with 4GB DDR3 RAM
I7 7700HQ with a GTX 1050TI wtf they were thinking Asus... This needs at least a RTX 2070 or RX 5700M
Andrew you inspired me to repair my old notebook! thxs! i love your videos (:
I've changed out keyboards in similar models of Asus Rog laptops and usually it ends up being the ribbon cables. Not sure why but they go bad from time to time, so I'd start their with it being the cheapest.
Hi bro, I agree, the cables sometimes are kinder egg, but sometimes is due to connector, so I stick tape over cable and all fixed :D
Missed your regular songs in the background, but a fantastic video as always!!
just love to watch your restoration videos buddy. now pin this😁😁😁
You have to install a ASUS fn keys from microsoft store in order to backlight work.
I have one solution for the keyboard lightings. I have ROG Strix GL503GE and whenever I install Windows, it stops working. It's either the color from previous settings or complete red. I just install its driver and ROG Aura Core. In ROG Aura Core, use the customize presets. That's how I fix mine. Note that Asus also provide a hotfix for it on their website.

Backlight not working? Do you ever try to install driver from Asus official website?
Sorry my bad english
I downloaded the keyboard software for asus and the backlight worked in my asus . You installed a new hard . That's why .

Thank youu bro :)
Try to fix the keyboard backlight with asus rog aura core. I once had a similar problem
Andrew is so Tidy, gosh.😌
This reminds me of the first laptop I ever bought. It suffered the same fate. All of a sudden it just turned off. Then I noticed that it's kind of raining outside and it was hooked to the AC adapter. Postmortem analysis revealed one burned chip. I tried having it repaired on a motherboard level, but no luck.
If it costs the same or more to fix it than to replace it, rule of thumb is to scrap it. Besides with Murphy’s Law, new tech is usually better and cheaper.
Pretty damn sure this video contains 96% isopropyl Alcohol
