People who are angry about the way I used the thermal compound, I apologize for that. I tried with the single drop method but the CPU was throttling at 90c so I used a bit more and the temperature went down to normal. Also the processor lies facing upside down and right below it is the plastic back cover. So, I guess even if it spills(which it didn't... yet) it won't be the end of the world for me or the people who followed my video. So just chill till the next episode ;)
After changing the the thermal compound, max CPU and GPU temps were 75~76c under full load. 30+ fps in most of the games in low ~ med settings. Gameplay video links are in the description.
Yo I just saw your video, I have the same laptop ,yet I'm getting different performance. I used the same thermal paste you used for a while and my laptop would throttle( well not throttle but it couldn't keep up its turbo boost speed of 2.8 ghz), so I changed it out for Thermal Grizzly conductonaut, and that solved my problem.
Do you know if the heatsink is made out of copper or aluminum?
Can I connect an external egpu graphics card? For this laptop
@@Kubcio_88 yes you can. You have to use the mini-pcie socket from the wifi card
@@AgustinBernardo What card would you recommend?
Thanks a lot Buddy.
My 5 year old A555L which is almost exactly a X555, would heat upto 101 degrees during gaming.
Reapplied thermal paste and now it doesn't go beyond 66 degrees.
Thankyou for this video!
Hello Bhai , I have the same model as yours . How much thermal paste did you use ? Same as shown in video or less ?
Big thanks for this video. It helped me a lot, my laptop works great again as newone and I saved money. This maintenance is required for every laptop after 2 or 3 years usage.
Lifesaver! Next time put more captions when removing certain components, I had to rewind a few times to make sure I was doing the right thing. Thanks again for this DIY video!
Thank you. This really gave me insight into what I need to do and what else I can upgrade when I am in the laptop.
Did it yeah!, thank you! Was the first time i oppened, cleaned and replace thermal paste, I am monitorizing temperatures of CPU and GPU, so far so good. Just, I would recomend this video for more expert users who want info about this specific laptop model, for a complete begginer like me, I had to check other videos to get hints for things like ESD, or to not blow air with my mouth on the circuit boards. I just saved around 50 USD, thank you!

3:26 that left flex is a nightmare. Really.
3 days ago i broke this flex wire port when i wanted to change my hdd and forgot about that flex wire and now i dont have mouse pad anyway i never used that :D
@@Senseyj Luckily!
So I disassembled my PC and was sure I hadn't broken the flex cable, yet I couldn't get the touchpad to work after reassembly, not even to get it listed in windows devices. I uninstalled ASUS Smart gesture and upon reboot touchpad was readily working again. I had downloaded ASUS touchpad driver ( ASUS Smart gesture ) to get it installed again but wasn't necessary. I'm using windows 10. PD: ASUS awful download site states ATK version whatever is needed before installing ASUS touchpad driver. I had it installed, yet it's real name in control panel Add or remove programs had no "ATK" characters in it.
@@Senseyj Look at my reply to this comment because it may be your case.
And those flex cable connectors have a tab that swings up before releasing the cable in question. The guy on the video is pulling the cable out incorrectly, so did I. Yet I believe it's almost impossible breaking this particular flex cable.
Your film is really clear and hard-working, thank you.
Thanks man, temperatures on my laptop are almost 20c less :D
bro one help please say yes or no
Is powerbutton integrated with keyboard ????
since i have an issue with keyboard i could disable the keyboard and could work with external keyboard i want to know whether this will affect the power button
@@vasanthraj9106 yes
@@aberchmusic9820 you mean it is integrated with keyboard so i can not use external keyboard :(
@@vasanthraj9106 no the power button is separate.
If you are still using this laptop, I can give some free advice. The cable you were mentioning is not a power cable,it's Display connector. To remove it, just remove the sticker and apply a small force horizontally. But it's extremely risky and you can lose your display sensitivity.(The color might look jumbled).
I have an Asus X555LN and my display was showing just arrays of RGB instead of showing what's on the pc. Moreover,my display hinge was almost broken, so I decided to detach the display totally.
It really looks nice now. I use an external dell s2218h monitor and color is superb. Only problem is I have to use it as a desktop. But the cooling has improved now(I don't know why).

8:40 to unplug that remaining cable(wich is the monitor, not the power), you lift the sticker and the cable can slide backwards, this video saved me time, had to switch the bottom case

My asus x555l motherboard problem but when i go to the serviceing they say they will charge 3000 tk for that i don't know if it will fix or not beacuse it was not only money but also my hard work ❤
Hi my model is x555l the problem is no sound,and maybe y know what part i need to replace?thanks
Hey! My speakers not working. Could you tell the how can i remove the plastic cover on speakers?
Nice guide. But why don't you swap the hdd and ssd. Coz the ssd on a sata II port will be very limited, unlike when you put it on the sata III port where the hdd is.
the two ports are sata 3

The thermal paste is not too much? Because i use less thermal paste still overheting in gpu i get 90c. if ok i will adding thermal paste to my gpu
abang fadhil Finally! Someone understood me. Thank you. Yes, definitely go for it, the same happened to me the first time. Then I used a bit more and spread it out like in the video and magic. Temps are down and no throttling :)
I know this is an old video, I wonder if there's a benefit putting thermal pads on the GPU vram chips? If yes, I wonder what's the thickness?
I still use my X555LB for work and casual use, I plan to switch from Gelid GC-Extreme to TPM 7950 some time in the future and apply the thermal pads on the vram chips.

Do you have any idea where the speaker/s are located? Mine aren't working and don't seem to be installed in Windows.
I have an X555U and it's got an audio issue. Everytime I apply any pressure on the sound card or pick the laptop up in a certain way the audio either gets very distorted or cuts off completely. Putting it to sleep and waking makes the audio come back. I opened it up, cleaned it and screwed the sound card tighter into the board. The problem persists but its a little better. Should I try replacing the sound card?

can i know where is a intergrated (intel hd) video card located ? and where is cpu and where is gpu ?
Sport Highlights And much more The chip on which I'm putting the thermal paste on at 12:24 is the CPU and integrated Intel GPU. If you look closely the metallic part is divided into two parts. The chip I'm pasting at 12:41 is the NVIDIA GPU. I know it for sure because NVIDIA is written on it.
Was the cpu soldered?? Or can it be replaced with same gen higher end cpu
15:12 where to get that cable which is on the top of HDD on ur right hand in India?
Hello sir, i have asus x455L with is not turning on but only the power status light is on and off what should I do?

Which WI-FI adapter fits this laptop to have 5 GHz? Please write a model.
so sorry for different topic, but is there anyone tried to replace the sound card for A555L ?
A question. It only has a black cable connected to the WiFi card. True?
Just wanna to ask that thermal paste is really a great help to transfer heat to heatsink? I cleaned my X555LJ/ A555lJ in my country, just I not dare to change thermal paste only.
Jacky Jiong Yes it is very helpful especially if the pre-applied thermal paste has dried up
Errm, any estimated duration for a pre-applied thermal paste would dried up? My laptop 2 years old for now.
Jacky Jiong A good way to realize this is by monitoring the CPU and GPU temperature while the laptop is under heavy load (i.e. gaming). If u notice the temperature rising to 90c very quickly this means the cooling system is not working properly. It can be due to dust build up in the fan and heatsink (11:21) or dried up thermal compound or both. Also, you'll notice that the temps do not usually cross 90c that is because as soon as any of your laptop's internal components reaches 90c, it protects itself from overheating by reducing performance. Hope this helps :)
Thanks man!
hey dude, can you help me?, im losing the cable who connecting the port I/O board into motherboard. and i don't know what is the specifications of the cable, what just i know is this cable has 30 pin and 0.5 mm pitch and the width is around 1.5 cm. do you know the specifications of the cable that i must buy? , it is must be one way cable or two way cable?, and any other specifications, so the cable will compatible. thanks buddy

It looks exactly the same, and some people relate them as equals, but some people on the other hand leave them in different sessions when you're buying them. Asus x555u hdd board is almost impossible to find, asus x555l is everywhere. I wanted to buy x555l and use it on my x555u.
i think his laptop model is asus x555u only becaues i m having x555l which has no nivida chip in it !!!(and ofcourse i have the same question can the m/b is swappable?) thanks in advance
.
I have an ASUSx553m, when i pull the power cable out the screen goes blank. it has done it from new. have just changed th battery, still the same.
I recommend going to an authorized Asus service center (after the pandemic situation has resolved) with this issue, good Sir. Since this might be a problem with some electrical components embedded on the motherboard, which is beyond my scope.

any help would be appreciated!
achmet chasankil The black thin cover type thing needs to line up with the 2 small holders on both sides as shown at 14:13 and it's ok if you put a bit more thermal compound and spread it out like I did with my CPU because my it was throttling at 90c (while gaming) when I used a small amount. Maybe because it's a slim laptop. If you read some other comments people are saying that this will ruin my motherboard what they didn't realize is the fact that the CPU is upside down in this model and directly below is the plastic back cover. So even if it drips (it will not, I didn't put that much), it'll not be the end of the world. Hope it helps :)
