For anyone else wondering why their new SSD drive isn’t showing up. You need to format it with Disk Management in Windows (10 or 11 same program). Right click on the unallocated drive and create new simple volume, then name your drive etc. 👍
I ordered mine because it came with a Ryzen 9 and a Radeon 6800. So the only thing I had to update was the ram and nvme. Your video helped greatly. The time and detail is spot on on. Great job!
@@jordansherwood2666 my apologies. I thought you were prankiing me. This is some serious stuff when you can shrink suck power into something so small. Hell when the ps4 pro came out was when I first dealt with an ssd. Now this.
Thank you a million for your video. I watched other videos on G15 upgrades, and to my surprise most of them don't mention "you need to disconnect the battery". You just saved another motherboard :)
@@Tech-This-OutI've taken this computer apart once already for an sad upgrade and when I reconnected the battery there was a small spark of electricity between the battery connector and where it sits in. How do I prevent this because I have to take it apart again for a ram upgrade so I was wondering if I disconnected the battery how do I drain the rest of the power? Do I press power button after disconnected
Very nice video. I'm sure you helped many people! You made it in a calm and easy to follow way and I hope more people can make it this way,. Without rushing things and explaining all the items. Very very good. Although I didn't need that guide, I watched it in full because of the way it was made. Can i suggest something? (i'm not critical just want to help). Ram is in GB so gigabytes not Gb which is gigabit. Small thing but would improve info slightly. Other thing is, this laptop is made in the way that one corner screw is longer and is locked to the casing (at least it should according to info and to what i have in my unit) so it lifts the lid and helps to open it. It is possible that not all versions have it implemented so I may be wrong with your example. Last thing...try to get some mouse pad or pc maintenance mat so you can rest laptop on it. That way you can avoid scratching laptop while moving it on the table. Believe me, it makes big difference. Keep up the good work. All the best
Very nice video. It helped a lot. I saw a website that stated one of the dimms of ram were soldered in. You proved that is not correct. You were thorough as well. Liked and subscribed.
Awesome video! It is going to help me immensely. I got the QHD variant of this laptop with the 1440p screen, but everything else is identical. Do you have issues with screen bleed? I'm on the fence about swapping it for a different one. Also, where did you get the heat shield paper?
Thank you. I’ve never encountered any issues with the screen in terms of screen bleed and the heat shield paper came with the laptop. I tried to find them online with no luck.
Not that I’m aware of. I would check the owners manual just in case but I don’t believe upgrading the ram and ssd will in no wise void your laptops warranty because in the description it says: ram and ssd upgradable.
@@Tech-This-Out I checked with the store in my town, upgrading wont void the warranty, but they told me to stay away from liquid metal, there is an indicator/sticker under vapor chamber that will indicate them that it was opened and will affect warranty.
It’s ok I’ve noticed with the intel version I get higher download speeds but connection wise, the mediatec and intel versions connects instantly to WiFi. I believe the intel WiFi is better though.
Just remember to check your RAM (Zentimings works for this and check the timings), my G15 AE actually came with good ram...so my upgrade I was all excited about was a flop lol, they only gain I got was a minor one from Dual Rank Timetec Ram, and we are talking a few FPS in SOTR @ 1080
Yes you can and I got some links to some rams if you’re interested www.amazon.com/dp/B0B1GMD6SB/?tag=johannchennis-20 www.amazon.com/dp/B0C64BNCWX/?tag=johannchennis-20 www.amazon.com/dp/B0BLTDRRLF/?tag=johannchennis-20
I just ordered this laptop. I’m super hype. Few questions I have for you please ! What’s the best brand of ram for this unit ? 64gb vs 32gb ram? I’m thinking 64 is better but will brand make a a difference ?? Thanks !!
First of all, congratulations on a fantastic laptop and since the G15 advantage edition laptop allows you to add 64gb of Ram is great so use the max. Some rams are better than some but I won’t go into technical details. I would say Kingston makes great rams for overall performance like their Fury rams but it’s extremely difficult to find a dual rank Kingston ram. I’ve used the Corsair Vengeance ram and it was also great with great speed, increased fps and good for gaming. IMO, I would go for the Corsair Vengeance. You won’t be disappointed.
@@Tech-This-Out is the Corsair dual rank ? I found one on Amazon. I’ll put the name below. Is this the correct one ? Thank you so much G !! Corsair Vengeance Performance SODIMM 64GB (2x32GB) DDR4 3200MHz CL22 Unbuffered
I’m using a ROG Strix G512LW i7 10750H RTX 2070 laptop. Previously, I used 16GB RAM with a 3200MHz bus. I’ve upgraded it with two more 3200MHz RAM sticks from another machine, but it only recognizes a 2933MHz bus. How can I get it to recognize 3200MHz? Thank you.

Is there a best 64 gb ram kit that is recommended for gaming? Is the kit you are using good enough? I saw some vids that they can boost up to 20% fps with the new ram kit. But all were using 16gb ram kit... Thanks for the video between...
Thanks for checking out my video. Unfortunately I sold this laptop so I can’t do a video on thermal pasrmte replacement but I’m currently looking to get Asus zephyrus g15 laptop so if and when I do get it, I might attempt replacing the thermal paste.

I use a regular screw driver. The screws for the ssd is a hard to screw out at first. What I had to do is apply a little pressure but be careful not to keep on trying to loose the screw and mess up the groove of the screw. Be patient. You’ll get it.
I have one problem... The last screw on the top (it's the one that on lower left corner) doesn't want to unscrew... And that's it, I can't even open my notebook's cover. My dad told me that probably the screw's carving is ruined, because I can actually spin it, but it only spins and is not unscrewed :( Can I do anything with that myself? Or the only way is to hang it to the service ;/ I've already bought new RAM and I'm so sad right now... cuz it's the first time I opened my laptop, the screws are stock :(
I’m sorry to hear that you’re having issues with unscrewing your laptop. Here’s what I find online. Hope it helps: The likely reason that the screw is turning without withdrawing is that some of the threads on the screw or in the mating part of the laptop have been stripped. Thus was likely caused by ovetightening of the screw. The way to remove the screw is to simultaneously pry the screw out while turning it. This will allow undamaged portions of the threads to engage with each other. A good way to do this it to take pieces of brass shim stock and cut small V-shaped notches in them. The notches allow the shim stock to fit around and under the screw you are attempting to remove. Wedge one or more of the pieces of shim stock between the screw head and the case while turning the screw counter-clockwise. Alternatively, if the other screws have already been removed from the case, it is often possible to insert plastic wedges (say a credit card) between the two mating parts of the case and in that way apply upward pressure on the one recalcitrant screw allowing the threads to engage while you unscrew it. Make sure you are using the proper type of screwdriver. On a laptop this is often a Star or Torx head screw and requires a Star or Torx screwdriver. Do not mistake this for a standard Phillips screwdriver
Have you had any issues with the ram since the upgrade? i was under the impression that you couldnt use 64gb of ram in this laptop. on the asus spec sheet it says max 32gb. also when you made this video did you notice the sticker from the old ram on the heat shield?
I haven’t had any issues with my laptop since I maxed out the ram at 64. No heat issues, no shut down, works perfectly. No. Everything was in tact. The sticker was still on the old ram.
The ssd slot inside the g15 advantage edition is a GEN3 SSD slot. Yes you can use the Samsung 980 pro and it’s a Gen4 ssd but your gonna get GEN3 speeds between 2000 and 3000MB W&R speeds. Trust me. I tried with a Kingston KC 3000 which is the fastest Gen4 on the market and the pc only allow the ssd card to operate at around 2000/3000MBs again because of the GEN3 SSD slots that’s inside the laptop. I’m currently running two Samsung 970 Evo Plus’s inside the G15 advantage edition laptop. 1 has 1TB and the 2 has 2TB running at 3200-3300 write and 3300-3500 read.
It all boils down to personal preference. I’ve noticed my laptop ran a little faster and better when I maxed out the ram to 64gb (32x2) compared to using 32 (16x2). 32 gb of ram is the sweet spot even if you play a lot of AAA games and average work loads. You only would need 64 if your doing more graphically intense work like 3d, engineering etc. I maxed it out to 64 because the system allows me to and it’s just my preference. The key thing you want to know when getting a ram for the laptop is how low the cas is because the lower the cas, the faster the performance of the ram.
@@Tech-This-Out thank you so much for the reply, appreciate it. Sorry to trouble you more but if you can please suggest whether the Corsair vengeance 2933MHz CL19 from the link you gave is a better option over Kingston FURY Impact 64GB (2x32GB) 3200MHz DDR4 Cl20?
@@sohamforever you can’t go wrong with either rams. They’re both great rams but I like the Corsair Vengeance because the cl is lower which makes games uploads and responds a little faster. Don’t get me wrong, I love the Kingston ram and I still use it. The Kingston ram is pretty fast as well and I get maybe 2-3 more fps on certain games. So, IMO, Corsair Vengeance, great for gaming. Kingston, great overall performance in any category
@@Tech-This-Out thanks bro ,I also want to ask you, do you still have this laptop? I have it, but I have problems with delays in offline and online games.
@@mohamedabotahon5404 unfortunately I don’t have It anymore. What I did was to change the Wi-Fi card out of it because it’s a weak Mediatek card and give it the max ram allotted for this laptop. I’m not sure why you’re laptop is performing so poorly but I would take a look into those areas I mentioned and I would suggest you get a ssd card that have a speed of at least 7000MB/s
You can but it won’t do you any good because the mother board is design and modified to function with the speed of the ddr4 ram. If you install a ddr5 ram, the laptop may go into safe mode and wont come out, (happens before with something different I was experimenting with). It may also boot up but you wont get ddr5 speeds because of the motherboard. Just get a ddr4 ram that’s 3200mhz and a low cl e.g. 16 or 19-20 with dual rank.

Damn this looks a bit too hard for me. My laptop only have 8gb ram and can play some AAA games (fallout 4, GTA 5, the witcher 3, no man sky) at low settings for 20-30 fps. I'm kinda satisfied with it but I'm pretty sure it's couldn't run very demanding games like rdr 2 and Elden ring. So I think upgrading my ram, especially since integrated GPU would benefit more from more ram would be a good idea but I don't think I'm good enough to do this 😔
@@Tech-This-Out I'm probably sounds like a total pussy but from a few minutes of thinking, I think I'm gonna do it when I have a backup or something. Like modding games, I would backup the original files before modding the game so my original game files won't get fked when I messed up. Right now I don't have no leftover money to repair if I take the risk and messed up. Have you ever messed up badly while working on the laptop?
@@frog6054 messed up, a little, but I completely understand where you’re coming from. I like to take risk but if you’re not comfortable doing something, don’t attempt to do it unless you’re comfortable and you got a backup just in case but I completely understand where you’re coming from.
@@Tech-This-Outdid you discharge the capacitors I'm surprised no one has asked this yet but did you press the power button after you unplug the battery because I took apart this exact computer one time, and it had a spark, I just don't know how to drain the capacitor.
@user-by2zs8ib2b no I didn’t. All I did was unplug the laptop, disconnect the battery and hold down the power button for at least 15-30 seconds to drain whatever power that might be stored in the laptop.
If you just buy the laptop how it is will it run good I dont want to have to put in a new ram. The laptop is already pricey to have to add anything lol ijs
Hi Jordan Sherwood. Sorry for the late reply. The laptop itself is a fantastic laptop but it comes with 16gb of ram which is good enough for some streaming and light gaming. It will definitely get the job done but it’s not good enough if you want to play AAA games, editing etc. So, the ram that it comes with is good enough for average every day use and some gaming but if you’re gonna do hardcore things with this laptop, I would suggest the increase the rams to at least 32gb but you don’t have to if you don’t want to. One thing I would like to point out about this laptop is the Wi-Fi card. It comes with a Mediatek Wi-Fi card that’s not good and many owners of this laptop complain about it with its weak and inconsistent connections and range. Again, the ram is decent enough and you don’t have to change it if you don’t want to but I would definitely change out the Wi-Fi card. They are very affordable and I have a video on how to exchange your Wi-Fi card out. It’s very easy.

@@jordansherwood2666 gosh, I haven’t used mine in a while. Have you upgraded the ram? How about the ssd memory? Those two things are what I change to experience smoother gameplays and a stable fps. In some games, you have to go into the menu and adjust some settings e.g. fps, graphics output etc. if you already boosted your RAM and storage, then the next step is to go into the armoury crate and tinker with the settings and also go in Amd settings in the computer and tinker with the settings. Don’t forget to always upgrade the Amd software by googling Amd software updates and select update and take it from there. That’s the best I can think of off the top of my head right now.

Are you mixing rams or are they both the same? If your mixing the rams( meaning your using two different rams) one could be faulty or if if they’re both the same, I would reseat the rams and boot up the laptop again and see if that resolves the issue. 🤞
@@RogZoneOfficial 1: you can go ahead and update to windows 11 if you want to to see it it’ll correct it or 2: the system is allocation the 8 gb towards vram.
