 Hello, this is LaptopMedia and today, we will show you how to open the Asus ROG Strix G18 and what's inside of it. To open this machine you need to undo 11 Philips head screws. The one in the bottom right corner is captive and lifts the edge of the panel so you can start the prying process from there. Please remember, it would be of great help to us if you just hit the like button and subscribe to our channel. That would motivate us to make even more and better videos for you. Inside we find a 90 watt hours battery pack. It got us through 10 hours of web browsing or 8 hours and 30 minutes of video playback. To take it out, you first need to remove the chassis fan. It is held in place by 2 Philips head screws, then unplug the connectors of the fan and the battery from the motherboard and undo the 4 Philips head screws, holding the battery to the device. Memory wise, you get 2 Sodium slots, which work with DDR5 RAM. As for storage, there are 2 M2 PCI-EX4 slots. They support both Gen3 and Gen4 SSDs. In terms of cooling, you get 2 heat pipes shared between the CPU and the GPU with one more dedicated to each of them. In addition, you get 1 heat pipe for the graphics memory and 1 for the VRMs. Every fans blow the heat away from the chassis, while 5 heat sinks dissipate the heat.
