    1. Remove the bottom plate

    To access this notebook’s internals, you need to remove the bottom panel. First, undo all 11 Phillips-head screws and then pry the panel with a plastic tool, starting from the edge, where the screw is captive. Before you fully lift it away, you need to unplug the LED strip ribbon cables from the motherboard.

    2. Battery

    When it comes to the battery, we found a pretty beefy 90Wh battery pack.

    3. Memory and storage

    Memory-wise there are two RAM SODIMM slots, that support up to 64GB in dual-channel in total. Additionally, there are two M.2 PCIe x4 slots for storage upgrades.

    4. Cooling system

    In terms of cooling, there are six heat pipes. One of them is common for both chips, while both the CPU and the GPU have two more each. The last one cools the graphics memory and the VRMs. It’s worth noting that ASUS uses a liquid metal thermal compound for the CPU.
