Hey, ho.
So I've decided to re-paste my G750JZ with some Ultra Liquid and while disassembling the laptop I ripped out 2 pins on the motherboard that were used for keyboard cord and now I cannot connect it as it has nothing to keep it in place.
We'll be back to that later.
I went on as my goal was to re-paste the CPU and GPU. When I finally came to these 2 I had first nightmare-ish experience. The screw taht was under the "if you break this you'll void your warranty" was completely destroyed! The other 3 were great and had no problem unscrewing them but this one was just nub from the start! So the plan to re-paste CPU failed. I just said f**k this and went on to the GPU. Boy oh boy was I in for another horror.
As I finally removed all screws first thing I noticed (Even before that) that the paste was smudging from the GPU's corners, chips, everywhere. And then I finally put the cooling section apart from the actual GPU....I tell you people, it was a scene directly from horror movies. Not only the paste was dripping everywhere and was used way, way, way too much (I could see that in some areas it was like they just used a whole bottle for a tiny chip) it was as if they applied it with a paint and a brush. IT WAS EVERYWHERE. Smudging from all sorts of chips (Even those that it shouldn't be), on the matrix, corners, EVERYWHERE.
I tried really hard but could never in thousand years undo what these monsters did with this poor GPU.
To return to the pulled pin part. Basically I cannot use my keyboard any more as I have pulled out the pins that hold it in place. I was lucky in few tries to get some keys working, maybe like 30% of the whole keyboard (Minus the touch that works perfectly), which is really useless for normal use. So I've decided to look for motherboards as those seem to be the only hope left for this poor abused thing.
So I wonder this: I've read that any G750 motherboard will fit any G750 Asus Rog. Is this true? If so I can get one immediately, otherwise I'll be forced to use second keyboard as there are no MB selling for G750JZ anywhere I've looked so far....
Thanks for the help and answers!
