    Inside Lenovo Yoga 910 – disassembly, internal photos and upgrade options

    LaptopMedia.comHighlightsInside Lenovo Yoga 910 - disassembly, internal photos and upgrade options

    From: Rossen Pandev 31 October 2016 / 13:19 | 36

    PLEASE WHITELIST US. If it weren’t for the ads, LaptopMedia wouldn’t be running.
    Our articles are free to read but the equipment in our Labs isn’t. We want to be as objective and unbiased as possible, and you can help us keep our jobs by whitelisting our media in your adblocker.

    The chances of you tearing down an ultrabook like the Yoga 910 are pretty slim but sometimes, the storage upgrade, replacing the battery and cleaning the fans are a necessity. Luckily, the upgrade on this one is fairly easy but keeping the fans clean will be a pain in the neck. Here’s what we found inside.

    Price and availability of the Lenovo Yoga 910 can be found here: http://amzn.to/2fwppBs

    1. Removing the bottom piece

    The bottom piece comes off really easy so you just have to remove all the screws around the corners.

    img_20161031_134022
    img_20161031_134631

    2. Storage, battery and Wi-Fi card

    You will immediately find the M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD, which is manufactured by Samsung and it’s part of the OEM PM951 lineup. The slot supports the usual 2280 size with a B&M or M key.

    img_20161031_134726

    The Wi-Fi module is located right next to the fan made by Anatel.

    img_20161031_134734

    And as for the battery, it’s really hard to miss on that one since it takes most of the inner space. It’s rated at 78Wh and we are quite impressed by the size of the battery they were able to cram inside and the Intel KBL-U chip that fits on such small motherboard.

    img_20161031_134711

    3. RAM

    As expected, the RAM chip is just one and it’s soldered to the motherboard. You can find it once you flip the whole motherboard.

    img_20161031_140037

    4. Cooling system

    If you want to access the whole cooling system (heat pipes, heat sink and fans) you will have to go through the whole trouble of detaching it. You need to unscrew all the bolts holding the motherboard and the extensions. After this is done, the fans need to be removed along with all the cables connecting the display, battery, keyboard etc. Once all cables and screws are removed, you can proceed with flipping the motherboard.

    img_20161031_140128
    img_20161031_140131

    As you can see in the photos below, the cooling design is straightforward – one heat sink connecting the two fans and the CPU. Our tests, which we will publish in the upcoming full review, confirm that the cooling system keeps things cool even when fully loaded.

    Can the GPU be replaced? I have the 4K model and as weird as it sounds. I want to downgrade the graphics.
    Thanks

    don’t think so since it’s an integrated GPU

    Thank you for the break down. I have noticed on my 910 our processor were overvolted and resulted in thermal throttling, I noticed that some had concerns about performance/fan noise and I am curious if that maybe the issue as well. By undervolting the processor by .125 – .140 mvs and the core cache by the same as well and the igpu by around .60 mv I noted about large performance increase due as well as 10% increase in battery life. My idle temps went down 15 degrees Celsius as a result. Intel has a program that can do this… Read more »

    My Lenovo Yoga 910 has pinch of dust or residue stuck within the track-pad. This issue made the right – click button mechanism hard to press (before having this issue, the track-pad is fantastic). Do you know an easy way to get the dust out of the track-pad.

    Is it relatively difficult to replace the wifi card? I got a refurbished one and suspect that my card is faulty, wondering if it would be worth opening up. Just for context I have repaired some hardware in the past, I successfully disassembled a samsung galaxy s6 and replaced the internal charging thing with no problems. I’m just a bit afraid to open up my laptop as I do need it for work!

    Is there a BIOS battery in the Yoga 910? I opened mine up and don’t see it .. at least not the easy-to-find battery that looks like a watch battery … I’ve got my dad’s YOGA and it’s bricked — no power, no lights, no nothing. I realize that it might be a bad motherboard, but the machine’s out of warranty and before going there, I’d like to try to a power-reset of the bios … if I can figure out what’s going on with the BIOS power …

    i have a yoga 910, and i think mine is bricked because someone else flashed a new bios on it and now it wont boot into bios.
    so im gonna flash the bios externally with another computer, if that doest work ill just replace the bios chip. it should work after that.
    i thought this might be the same issue as yours
