heya, did you check the temps before you sent it off? I might be doing the same thing but instead using the PTM7950 instead and maybe applying K5 pro onto the vrms just to be safe. what do you think? But yeah please do tell the temps after you repasted it.
Thanks for the explanatory video... I have a question: do you know if it's possible to swap the motherboard of the GA401QC model with a Spanish keyboard that includes the 'ñ' key, and replace it with a GA401QM motherboard? I appreciate any information you can provide. Best regards from Chile.
because liquid metal is evil, it is dangerous if it gets anywhere, it kills your pc, it's hard to manage shake or drop laptop and it may seep through the foam and that's game over for laptop. it's not worth the few degrees you get from it compared to quality thermal paste or ptm7950
Thanks for the video it. It helped me out a lot in the process of replacing the both fans since the stock ones started making rattling noises. But now I cannot change the fan speed in the armoury crate manual mode like before. Is there a solution to this?
nice and very detailed video! i wondered why you didnt remove old thermalpaste from the vram and didnt apply new. it's not so important and doent heat this much?
Seems like you've got the same problem with the corner. That screw seems to be longer than others and if you keep screwing it in, it breaks the corner 😢
I noticed from all thermal paste replacement videos, why would you not clean the other old pastes as well? I don't really understand or is it really better to leave them like that? especially on the copper side.
Hi! Thanks for the video, I'll follow it to repaste my Z14 soon, quick question, I already have some Thermal grizzly kryonaut lying around, am I safe to use it on my laptop? I've only used it on desktop computers, I don't really know if using it on a laptop could create some kind of problem. Thanks again for the video!
@@ItsBinhRepairedhey i'm back with bad news, I've repasted it with the kryounaut and now it won't turn on. I've checked and there's no liquid metal running around the mother board, nothing out of place. The only thing I've noticed is that after mounting everything back on in place (ram, ssd, wifi cables), as soon as I inserted the battery connector back in a little spark came out, I hope I haven't fried anything, especially because I didn't do anything wrong with that cable. There are no leds on when I plug it in the wall, no sign of life when I try to turn it on. Any suggestions?
I’m about to replace my thermal paste, but you keep mentioning the possibility of the laptop becoming “fried” in replies. What particular step can lead to the laptop becoming fried (so I can be more careful)? Thanks
Great video! It was very nice and detailed and helped me out quite a lot. Would you happen to know if it takes ddr5 ram? Or would I only be able to upgrade to more ram if it’s only ddr4?
I had a quick question: Where do the blue screws and the yellow screws go? Having trouble with placement and got confused where they go, please reach out to me when you can thank you
@ItsBinhRepaired yes there are yellow and blue screws that on each screw I need help getting the screws back in there again like the big screws and the small screws
hey man, thanks for the tear down, I'm hopefully another 6 months away from doing some maintenance! was upset to see there was no extra slot for SSD. it would be great to hear your thoughts on an optimal SSD for a single build. would you have a recommendation E performance and speed? I've been out of the space for so long time now - despite working on a computer all the time!!! And you did say there was an extra slot for RAM right? If so easy stuff :) thanks buddy, great video, I saved it so I can come back and watch when it's....."the time"!! hope you can advise on the RAM and SSD. I just got a 1TB and an enclosure, not ideal, but simple ;) it's a new laptop, so If there's an SSD you'd recommend, I i would love to hear your thoughts! Or any other upgrades ;)
Best video out there, i wanna replace it with ptm7950 but i was wondering if it is unnecessary to replace thermal putty on vram, will it last its lifetime? Ppl say that ptm7950 does. I just wanna do this once bcs its scary that i might do a short or something bad lol
I did the same thing, except for pressing the power button for 15 seconds, but once I put my laptop together, it didn't get old. Do you have any tips on what could be the problem? The indicator LEDs don't light up either
Hey man I have the same gaming laptop and was wondering if you were able to fix mine. I have the 2021 model and randomly stopped charging. I had sold it on eBay fully functioning and was returned saying it didn't charge. I've been looking around and had no luck in finding someone who can repair it or tell me what's wrong with it . I was tempted to open it myself but I wouldn't want to damage it. If you're able to take it, how much would you charge?
@@ItsBinhRepairedhey mine doesn't boot too, but when I connect the charger I can see the orange LED light. Can you tell me what could possibly be the issue or help me to repair it

@@ItsBinhRepaired No problem! Thnx u
@@felipemardones5080 yup
Nice work as always! Cheers, my friend.
Thanks!
Why did you apply thermal paste to the processor instead of liquid metal? Sorry if I explained it in the video, I'm from another country
Liquid metal is costly, risky, and breaks down the metals. If there's aluminum, it'll destroy it.

Glad it helped. I haven't come across this issue with changing the fan speed before, so I'm not sure. Try doing a restart on the computer.
Yup it works fine now. I forgot that Manual mode and turbo works only when connected to outlet my bad.
@@mustakimshafin4902 ahhh awesome haha
nice and very detailed video! i wondered why you didnt remove old thermalpaste from the vram and didnt apply new. it's not so important and doent heat this much?
Usually the vram doesn't need that much cooling. They don't put thermal paste the same way.
Seems like you've got the same problem with the corner. That screw seems to be longer than others and if you keep screwing it in, it breaks the corner 😢
Hmmm

The thermal pads? Most people don't replace those because it's unnecessary.

Sounds fried D:

Most of them skip the first 6 minutes of the video. Don't skip any of it and make sure to pay attention to what I say.
@@ItsBinhRepaired Thanks! Just to confirm, disconnecting the battery and holding the power button can prevent frying, Got it.
@@en_vy yup
Try out Phase Change Material (PCM) like Honeywell PTM7950, Upsiren PCM-1. And on vrams and power sections put thermal putty Upsiren UX Pro.
I'll have to charge my customers more. I haven't seen any issues with this currently.
Great video! It was very nice and detailed and helped me out quite a lot.
Would you happen to know if it takes ddr5 ram? Or would I only be able to upgrade to more ram if it’s only ddr4?
You can't change the type of RAM.

@@LugiaDaryl27 I don't own the computer, so if you can't tell from the video, I have no idea.
how did you clean the fan? did you use air blower or do you manually wiped it?
Toothbrush to loosen the dust and then electric air blower. Don't use the cans.

The buyer might have stolen the motherboard and swapped it out. Check if you can find a serial number sticker inside.
@@ItsBinhRepaired Okay I will check it out right now
Also check if there are signs of disassembly. If it gets power, but no display, try reseating the RAM. could be it came loose in transit.
@@Demoniolol does it work ok minus the charging issue? It turns on?
Hello, is it possible to replace screen lid from 16:9 to 16:10 from newer models?
No
I got mine today stight from the store i tryed to replace my ssd then i pluged back in the battery and fried the motherboard 😔
D:

single ram
Pretty sure
hey it doesnt boot now
Uh oh
