Bro I am so glad you made these videos. I tried calling HP they wouldn't help me whatsoever. Geek squad, no thanks. Regular computer store said they wanted 50 bucks to show how to do it lol. I'm not a computer guy AT all. I know nothing. Thank you thank you thank you.
@@ezequielandrade3100 depends on the games optimization, games like GTA 5 and forza H5 run at ultra settings with 60-90fps consistently, but some games will run at medium settings, i havent tried Mw3 but it would probably be 60fps at medium settings
Thank you! I just successfully installed additional SSD to my empty SATA slot thanks to your video. I have HP Pavilion Gaming 17, but it is similar enough :)
Thanks for the guide! I bought a 15-ec2008ca because of your video and just finished my upgrades, I was initially just checking to see about upgrading the ram but the empty SATA slot sold me lol
This is probably one of the best tutorials for upgrading a laptop. No loud music, gets right to the point. Also I did use a flathead and credit card to open the back cause I didn't have any other tools on hand.
Hello, a pleasure, from Argentina I consult you. As you did to change the color of the keyboard, it caught my attention, thanks for the prompt response.
The color depends on the model of your notebook, some come with green some purple. These laptops don't have multicolor/RGB LEDs so cant change them in the BIOS or in software.
i literally cannot get the screws out of the external casing that attach it to the motherboard please help, they're so tight and they just keep stripping
Very good video, just notice that the internal orginal NVMe is quite a bad drive. The first few GB you copy the performances are good but then the drop of speed is embarrassing low (apparently once the cache is full) If you plan to use it to copy Video (or other kind of large) files on the road I really suggest that you change also the NVMe for a better model.
Your videos are the best. I watched another video describing how to install the Ram in the laptop and he did not go through as much detail he also did not explain the different types of Ram and the different quality of the Ram. Plus they didn't make any mention about upgrading the hard drive. Nor did they mention using the software to find out what kind of Ram and performance of the Ram in their videos.
i think i would be able to actually do this. i’m getting one of these with 1 terabyte already but it only has 8GB of RAM thinking of upgrading when i get it
Its pretty easy to upgrade!! Make sure to get yourself Dual Rank memory. I would say upgrade to 16GB at least for optimal performance while gaming and 32GB if you are going to edit 4K videos.
You make it seem really easy however when I tried to unscrew the hard drive, it was really difficult, almost impossible, I spent over 2 hours trying to unscrew this hard drive, and I am planning on keep trying. It's been over a day, this made me so frustrated that I just wanted to destroy the whole laptop.
@@myg_ho3127 I ended up removing the screws on the sides of the SSD bracket with the screwdriver by pulling them out by force instead of unscrewing them, the SSD bracket inside the laptop bent a little. In the end, I was able to install the new SSD there.
@@renatabalina2720 what did you use to pull them out? because i've really tried and they are well and truly in there 😭😭 and im so scared of damaging other internal component
@techguycharlie Should i upgrade extra storage of HDD on my hp pavilion 15ec-2004ex ? hp provide 512gb of SSD but i want more storage of HDD so can upgrade more SSD512gb+HDD512gb ?
Another thing you could do is remove the thermal tape on the back plate covering the hdd it would improve ventilation and especially help those who run their laptop for more demanding games.
Hey man i have the same laptop, please can you tell me how to remove the 3rd screw of the fans, which is attached to both the fans in the middle, idk how to open it btw love the content bro 😄😄
great video, actually helped me with upgrading my laptop! thank you excuse me tho, i have the same laptop and i wanted to ask if you know how to overclock the ram speed cuz idk how and they locked the advanced settings in bios. pls help!
which ram should i use? i want to upgrade my same hp model i.e 75ax urs is 76ax, I have 8 g.b of ram but I easily touch 93% , suggest me a good one which should be capatible and be utilized fully. Thanx
Well I went for the Crucial 8 GB model 3200mhz, and then now the ddr4 ram prices are super low and I bought 8Gb stick for 2450rs and now it selling for 1500rs . SAD BUT I can upgrade to 32 GiB now and sell the old rams.
Product: HP Pavilion Gaming - 15-ec0100ax Operating System: Microsoft Windows 11 At first only 5.9gb of ram was usable and the rest 2.1 was reserved for hardware. I researched and found the the only thing I can do is to add 1 more ram stick so I upgraded to 2x8gb ram but now was I added 1 more stick of 8 gb ram 10.1gb of ram is hardware reserved and only 5.9gb is usable now too Pls tell me what to do How can I removed this reserved ram. tried removing the ram stick to check if the ram I order was faulty but it was alright
One of the brackets of the 2.5 of my laptop had a stripped screw so i tried everything to remove it but nothing worked so i just had enough and ripped the bracket off and just put it and it works fine

i cant remove the screw that fixes the caddy onto the board. i tried every screwdriver
The "tape" on the ram and nvme drive was a thermal conductor to keep the ram sticks and the drive cool

You can upgrade your HP Pavilion Gaming 15 Laptop to up to a maximum memory capacity of 32GB Memory.
