日本Inside ASUS ROG Strix G15 G513 – disassembly and upgrade options
Although the upgradability here is spot on, we see it as a subtle downgrade from last year.
Check out all ASUS ROG Strix G15 G513 prices and configurations in our Specs System or read more in our In-Depth review.
1. Remove the bottom plate
In order to take this device’s bottom panel off, you need to undo 11 Phillips-head screws. After that carefully pry your way around the panel, and gently lift it. Don’t be too hasty, though, because you need to unclip the LED strip ribbon cables.
2. Battery
When it comes to the battery, ASUS has made sure you get the same 90Wh package, they put in the larger 17-inch model.
3. Memory and storage
Thankfully, the upgradability is on point here, with two RAM SODIMM slots, which support up to 64GB of DDR4 memory in dual-channel. Also, you get two M.2 NVMe slots for storage.
4. Cooling system
Looking at the cooling setup, we see a total of six heat pipes. One common for the CPU and the GPU, two more for each of them, and one dedicated to the VRMs and the graphics memory. All of them go to four heat spreaders.

ASUS ROG Strix G15 (G513) recensione approfondita
Although it launched side by side with its 17-inch sibling, we were able to snatch a ROG Strix G15 G513 just now. And to be honest, it doesn't feel a whole lot different. In fact, it is a smaller version of the same laptop and packs pretty much the same features.This includes AMD's latest and greatest from the processor world, with the Zen 3 chips proving to be absolute units when it comes to sheer power. Also, there are some very capable variants of the RTX 3000 graphics cards, such as the 130W version of the RTX 3070, which we have on our unit.You see, this is not even the most grou[...]

my laptops runs on 60 degree Celsius on idle, what should i do to make it 40 to 45 C
underclock it. simple.
Now I mentioned that screw 9 on the my cooling system misses. My laptop is new and this is a bit awkward. Would you tell me what type of the screw it is? (g513qm) I think it is better to put it back because that might cause problem with warranty cases.
hey quick question… Do you know where the Wifi card is located?
Under the first M.2 SSD
I’m trying to find the bios battery so I can hard reset but I can’t find it anywhere
same for me couldt not find it after i disasamble it compleetly
In some cases, the CMOS resets when you take out the main battery and keep it out for a couple of minutes. Did you try this?
usually removing the battery then holding down the power button for around 60 seconds drains all the electricity from the board.
I just got this laptop and don’t have the same performance any idea
it has optimus which has less performance unless you bypass it by using a external display hooked up to the usb-c port not the hdmi port becuase the usb-c port is connected directly to the rtx card.
Hello. If this model’s usb-c is not thunderbolt capable, why did they linked it to the graphics card? Do you know?
I need to replace the motherboard for this unit, how do i got about it?
