ASUS ROG GL551J Complete Take Apart How to complete disassemble teardown

[@ExecMoose]

Kept forgetting how to get this back cover up to clean the fan. This helped a lot. For anyone struggling to get the back cover off, it doesn't lift. It's on a hinge that doesn't like to move.

The charger on mine will charge it then stop charge stop charge stop and it’s aggravating

[@simongassenschmidt7995]

Me too, for me the problem is that i forgot to remove the ssd, secondly some screw are stuck.

[@marcus2684]

About the screws below the CD drive, theyre so small and completely different from the other ones on my laptop. I just can’t get them out, I don’t have the exact screw head. This is triggering.

Can I upgrade the graphics card of this model

[@regazzz]

Looks like it is not possible.

[@kreeper4207]

I own this laptop and ive been trying to figure out what ssd that is compatible to ths ssd header any info on it please

[@10unnecessary01]

its an old m2 style sata, they are expensive and not worth buying. just replace the main hdd with an ssd

[@douglasking6714]

​@10unnecessary01 how would you do that do they make a adapter to fo from ssd m2 to old hdd style connection

[@shahzainkhan1566]

U can add m1 SSD card into this

[@darwinalejos6631]

I need to replace keyboard do I have to take it all apart or does it come off from top?

[@regazzz]

Unfortunately, you would need to pretty much take everything apart except the screen.

[@LucasC.Vasconcelos]

came here for the same reason, may i ask you where you bought? i found some in aliexpress

[@fr1ez3r]

Me watching this on this freaking G551JM (btw it can still play valo so dont complain about anything outside ok?)

[@rakam.r.9288]

pardon Sir, for the lcd screen connector, how much pin is it? 30 or maybe 40? i think my flexible cable lcd is damaged, (not software issue, have tested it), the lcd screen itself is normal if in cold-idle-normal use for office or programming, but after heating a much like for play dota or valorant the screen is always flickering

[@regazzz]

Hey man, nice troubleshooting. I don't know how many pins it has, but I would simply suggest to check on eBay and search for it, some listers are describing parts thoroughly. Thanks!

[@desertfox5564]

hello. may I ask if i can order just the polarizing filter and matte lcd cover? not the whole lcd. because my lcd is still okay but a sharp object ripped the polarizing filter, thus it is color white when looked at the damaged part

[@regazzz]

I don't think it can be purchased and replacing also wouldn't be easily possible.

[@desertfox5564]

@@regazzz thank you

[@noobmaster239]

What type of Ram is in it? How much can we expand?

[@elementrixhabbo.30]

DDR3L-SDRAM 16gb max

[@RicaidYT]

It says it has four slots for ram. But I only see 2. Where is the other 2?

[@regazzz]

Looks like only two slots. Where does it saying 4? Maybe a different configuration or slightly different model?

[@Cheskuy]

Hello, can i ask what type of ssd that laptop have? msata?

[@regazzz]

Regular SATA ssd drive, check when I remove a hard drive in this laptop, same connector and SSD should have. SATA.

[@Cheskuy]
