@@ComputersAndTechAndAndrew Hi mate. I've got a question. Caddys don't seem to have a latch to screw on whereas the DVD rom has one. Do you have any solution to this issue?
@@2160px bruh you just said no unoriginal, which technically means it's not unoriginal which translates back to original. get your english straight before trying to roast someone trying to make a joke.

I just bought a Dell M3800 on ebay and when it arrives I'll be restoring it to great condition! The ebay seller noted it boots to the bios so I know its working.
@@ComputersAndTechAndAndrew I agree and I won the RELISTED auction for it for £190.56 as the first time I failed to win the auction on the same laptop but now I didn't. The only bad design choice is that I'll have to disassemble the whole laptop to clean the keyboard but it will be okay. I might try to make a video on it. Thanks for your response! ^^
Update: I got pretty good deals on almost all parts for the Precision M3800. +16GB DDR3L-1600 SK Hynix for £35 (usually goes for 45 - 60) +Back cover for £9.95 (most went for 20 or more) +Brand new OEM Dell Charger for £25 (Usually sells for £39.99) Now I'm looking for deals on a 512GB mSATA SSD and a new battery. The cheapest battery I found goes for £22.50 is not OEM but is brand new however I'd have to drive 50 miles with my father as I can't drive yet to pick it up as its collection only. The cheapest brand new 91WH dell one is like £99 and that's too much..
Hey everyone! Good news! The laptop is fully functional and now clean! It has a tiny screen pressure mark but overall its in great condition and i am typing this comment from it right now! Its thin and can run Rocket League at 1080p60 fps VSYNC ON (vsync is a must as its much smoother) it has 16GB of RAM in it now and I have repasted the CPU and GPU with Cooler Master E1 thermal paste. Its really good and for £312.81 it was a steal as it is worth £545 on ebay and definitely more elsewhere. It is one amazing piece of hardware.
Wow, I love watching you restore old computers. I took inspiration from you and decided to restore one of my old macbooks after watching your video. Now my 2011 Macbook Pro is perfect for web browsing. I use it more than my 2018 macbook pro because I feel safer carrying around the older model!
Me too, because it was my laptop since freshman year at uni and I was boss with bang and olufsen speakers until I visited the US and they stole it from me.

Oh these are great. Remember having one of these couple of years ago with the quad processor. Did the 1080p panel upgrade along with SSD and RAM. Performed really great, kinda regret selling it.
Hi Andrew! Thanks for the advice about on graphics card testing. Now I can check my graphics setting without worrying my desktop PC performance. Everything on it is pretty normal and not getting overheat on my gpu and cpu.
I have the same laptop. I bought it in 2012 with the Nvidia GT630M (it's really the same as the GT540M) Still today running strong with Windows 10 💪 It gets a bit hot while Gaming demanding games like GTA 5, but that's completely normal considering it's age. Just going to put new thermal paste like you did. Very good laptop :) Nice video👍 New subscriber here
Thank you for subscribing and the support bro :D btw you just need to change thermal paste and clean the cooling, just use quality thermal paste because will last longer and the temp will be much lower
For a total slob that owned this computer perviously, you must admit they took good care of the device. This thing is nearly pristine once the grime is removed. The screen impressed me the most. I thought it would have some major scratches..
I have the same laptop, except mine has an i5 and a 2gb 540m. Only 2 ram slots with 8gbs of ram total and 2 ssds (the dvd drive was dead so i replaced it with a sata caddy). Awesome video
Asus laptops like this USED to only support 16GB of RAM, but them rumor has it (i read this on a Coreboot reddit thread) some dude online found out that with a few tweaks to the embedded controller firmware 16GB sticks can be used instead of just 8 (therefore making it 2x16 or 32). ASUS and a few other companies caught wind of this and was basically like "oh shit that's cool" and released firmware updates for all their older laptops to enable this. ASUS rocks for still supporting their older stuff like that if its true.
Heat dissipation on laptop graphics cards isn't as pronounced as that on a desktop equivalent. This is especially true for graphics memory. You're more likely to run into GPU overheating issues before being thermally restricted by a memory module overheating. Just the heatsink mount is sufficient for the use case scenario. Although some thermopads on the module would have increased heat transfer efficiency, it is definitely not necessary.
i think the previous owner sell the cpu since people still searching for it, and switch it for lower end to keep the laptop running, for those who didnt know mobile version of Sandybridge and Ivybridge are BGA style cpu which mean they can be switched depending on motherboard, laptop like this are popular in my country, they sell pretty well depending on specs, other than that good content Andrew, keep it up
I'm glad that he's a very careful with that laptop. I would be a very careful, too. It's always nice to be rewarded with a laptop that performs very smoowed, after being a very careful.
I have N43s, it used to overheat when playing Street Fighter 4 for more than 15 minutes. I blew some air with blower into the fan vent, problem solved. Would love to do what you did in this video for a more complete cleaning though.
Awesome work 🥰👍🎉 I’ve been “re-rewatching” some of your back catalogue as I love the work you do 🥰🥳! Btw when I originally purchased this laptop after launch I received a “RECALL” on it by shop I purchased it from due to a potential capacitor fault causing fire ….. I wonder if your friend still uses this laptop?
Just what I wanted to see. I have the same laptop but the i5 version and just bought an SSD 512. I will have to watch this vid many times before trying to do the deep cleaning and the thermal paste stuff. Any way, thanks for the vid and gained a new sub
Ha!, I still have the same model but the 6Gb ram version. My wife mostly uses it to watch movies but its great if you want to play not very demanding games, most games from 2010 to 2015 will play OK. I think after seen this I think I will upgrade the hard drive and the ram and use it to play LoL and WoW Classic at work.
Hi Andrew, I really like your work. I do thinks like this alot, but your cleaning process is way better than mine. 😅 This week I became my old Hardware back from a friend of mine and restored it. The only downside is the case. He sprayed it and it looks horrible for now. Currently I'm working on an HP G7. It was in bad conditions and had a water damage. I cleaned everything but it needs some seconds to initialise the video output. I've upgraded the CPU to an I7 2620m and the RAM to 16GB. I've changed the HDD to an SSD and it works great for slight gaming with the HD6470 1GB. I'll manage to overclock the GPU so that it can run faster in games.
Thank you bro :D btw take more time and you will clean it great also, even better, why not. About the sprayed case, you can use water sand paper 1000 grid to remove the painting, but than you will need to apply new paint
Four SODIMM slots on a notebook... I don't think I've seen that before. You could've upgraded the CPU as well, but a Core i7 2670QM is almost the best this notebook will support. You could go up to a Core i7 2860QM for a bit more CPU and iGPU power, but those are actually quite expensive and not that easy to get a hold of. Generally a SSD makes almost any notebook usable again, even if the rest is limited. A Core i5 or i7 from the 2nd Core i generation (Sandy Bridge and above) will still provide more than enough processing power for a notebook you're not planning on pushing too hard. i3 CPUs are OK, but you do run into bottlenecks much faster.
In my oppinion 20 GB of ram is OVERKILL, but now you are 100% shure that your ram is not bottlenecking your gpu/ssd/cpu ;) I have a lenovo V130-15ikb with intel core I7-7500u, 8 GB ddr4 ram, amd radeon 2GB 530 and a 1TB HDD. I will upgrade my laptop to a '' powerhouse'' ( buy a SSD, buy another 4Gb of ram, replace the gpu/connect an external one and if possible, replace this cpu to a 8th gen one with 4 cores instead of 2 and 0.5 GHz faster clock speed
Hi bro, even if there is some bottleneck it won't be noticeable and it won't cause any problems. The bottleneck cause problems only if the difference between hardware is too large, example: using i5 or i7 or i9 with GPU like GT610, 630, 710, or i9 with GT 1030 or GTX 950, with large difference in hardware the performances will drop, because in PC the powerful hardware always follow the weaker hardware. About your laptop, I'm not sure about eGPU it will support or not because I didn't test that model, the CPU is not changeable because is soldered on the motherboard. The upgrades that you can done are, changing the HDD with SSD, ( 1TB HDD you can add instead CD ROM or in CD ROM tray using Disk Caddy ) and you can upgrade the RAM
I got a used desktop computer for $135 and upgraded it with a 500gb used SSD for $50 which made it significantly faster. And I installed a $35 used low profile graphics card (3gb). And gave it extra RAM. 8 more GBs for $25. It can be cheap if you know what you're doing. I know it's intimidating at first, but just keep watching RUclips videos on how to do it too.
No need to put back the orange plastic on the cpu and GPU, those are there for when the factory slaps an extreme amount of paste. You can leave them off, also for those who aren't comfortable cleaning around the chips, it's fine, just use a plastic tool and clean the edges off and leave the tiny components with paste. It won't do anything as it is not conductive.
I think what would be a very helpful guide is crwating a video for how to know what the max upgrades a laptop can take like system limitations. That way people who are not tech savy can understand why some laptops can only handle so much. Sorry i really dont know anything about the subject i like to fix cars but this is interesting too completely foreign to me but seems cool. Thanks for the videos btw super helpful.
Thank you for watching bro :D btw I love fixing cars also, I have working to some board computers, GPS systems and some other problems on cars, I know some tricks for that also :D

The bottleneck cause problems only if the difference between hardware is too large, example: using i5 or i7 or i9 with GPU like GT610, 630, 710, or i9 with GT 1030 or GTX 950, with large difference in hardware the performances will drop, because in PC the powerful hardware always follow the weaker hardware.
About your laptop, I'm not sure about eGPU it will support or not because I didn't test that model, the CPU is not changeable because is soldered on the motherboard.
The upgrades that you can done are, changing the HDD with SSD, ( 1TB HDD you can add instead CD ROM or in CD ROM tray using Disk Caddy ) and you can upgrade the RAM
This made me wanna upgrade my N53S from 8GB Ram to 16GB Ram!! And also to replace my broken keyboard XD
Best Andrew in the world can you make a vidio how to make a dead battery work of a laptop how to change the inside batteries
God I need that in my life lol who else doesnt have a pc or laptop here
I got a used desktop computer for $135 and upgraded it with a 500gb used SSD for $50 which made it significantly faster. And I installed a $35 used low profile graphics card (3gb). And gave it extra RAM. 8 more GBs for $25. It can be cheap if you know what you're doing. I know it's intimidating at first, but just keep watching RUclips videos on how to do it too.
I need to
ChaosSuppressor You can get a Razer blade stealth for pretty cheap on offerup
I really need a new one 😭
My laptop gets hot even when I play Minecraft
7:07 Did you forget to thermal one of those chips? The left corner one?
There is a thermal pad on it i think 😉
i have a hp laptop with 1.50 gb ram and intel cpu 2.00 ghz windows 7 that's working fine
nice I have this problem so i want to solve it now thanks for this video
No need to put back the orange plastic on the cpu and GPU, those are there for when the factory slaps an extreme amount of paste. You can leave them off, also for those who aren't comfortable cleaning around the chips, it's fine, just use a plastic tool and clean the edges off and leave the tiny components with paste. It won't do anything as it is not conductive.
It would be interesting to carry out a temperature test before and after the restoration.
I think what would be a very helpful guide is crwating a video for how to know what the max upgrades a laptop can take like system limitations. That way people who are not tech savy can understand why some laptops can only handle so much. Sorry i really dont know anything about the subject i like to fix cars but this is interesting too completely foreign to me but seems cool. Thanks for the videos btw super helpful.
Thank you for watching bro :D btw I love fixing cars also, I have working to some board computers, GPS systems and some other problems on cars, I know some tricks for that also :D
Woow Amazing work
7:09 when you realize you forgot put thermal paste in one die
very good bro i like your videos
Audio is very good because uses bang olufsen icepower
