After 8 years, this video went useful for me. I've cleanned my always working 9 years old n55s laptop for the first time, and made a small upgrade switching hdd for an ssd (35$), and replacing the 2gb ram for an 8 gb (17$), leaving the 4gb one. With 12gb instead of 6, and ssd, I have made a huge improvement in performance and speed for 52$ + thermal paste 5$. Thanks for the video.
sorry, I've been having similar issues with this one, it started misbehaving not long ago (overheating gpu, CPU idling at 60°c, stopping charging while still being plugged in) and would like to ask if anything similar other than the stated happened to you?
@@Villepillle I've managed to lower it by 5°c but even now while browsing the web it goes above 70°c and experienced a bsod yesterday about the gpu which has happened before, i think that I'll open it again tomorrow and reapply the paste in hope that it'll fix itself, also been giving it a thought that i should downvolt it afterwards.
4 years late, but in case someone else needs it: it's thermal paste, which helps transferring heat to the copper plate on top of it, which is then cooled by the fan. Thermal paste usually dries up after a few years and loses some efficiency. It's good practice to change it every once in a while.
Hi, Thank you for the video. That thermal paste link is no longer valid. Could you recommend an alternative product? Also, Are there screw heads involved other than Phillip's or straight slotted? I already have a set of those types of precision screw drivers.
Hello, I have done this procedure, but after connecting everything again, the laptop turns on but not the screen, not work HDMI, VGA, DVD, etc. It seems like It have not enough power. Any help?

After many many years of use my old n55 started missbehaving due to overheated gfx card. Thx to this guide I got it going strong again. Thank you!

@@stalkerktz Only gpu overheating. Open it up and give it an overhaul.
@@Villepillle thanks, I've just bought thermal compound and will change in a few hours.
@@stalkerktz did it help?

Does it solve the heating problem ?
Very nice video, damn this was a pain in the ass to disassemble!
да прям
Thank you very much for the video. It helped me a lot.
Fantastic job buddy, thank you
What is the product you edit on it after cleaning in 18:09 please. Glue?

I just revitalized my good ol' trusty using this tutorial. Thank you very much! Cheers! :-)
Should you change the thermal pads around the cpu they seem wrecked.

old thermal paste should be cleaned in 100%, before putting a new one
Impressive video. Thank you. (But oh my goodness, what a pain in the ass to do!). Need some serious patience.
How do you replace the screen with a new one? Please answer as quickly as possible because I need to use my Asus N55SF urgently
Thank you so much.

Any help?
thanks for video but after assembly audio not work anymore, what's wrong? where is audio chip ? :(
did you fix your problem? I'd check if the speaker connector was making good contact.
this is impossible to clean fan for me. I'm not a electronics
Why is there no audio?
Also keys missing like mine.. The worst laptop I've ever owned!
n55 owner here, u didn't clean the fan!
oh, actually most important to clean dust from the radiator, as it was shown in the video, all dust in the fan accumulates there and blocking air flow
No screw (cheap build) so I had to break the plastic weld. The fan wings and around that area were quite dirty.
