Restoring and Upgrading the very first ASUS ROG
Ғылым және технология
Hi everyone, and thank you for 22:11 of your time. In this video I restore one of the Earliest version and also Rare example of ASUS ROG Laptops, the G2PC. These models are released back in 2006 and 2007. The Specs are: Intel Core 2 Duo T7400, ATI Mobility Radeon X1700 with 512MB video Memory, 2GB of DDR2 RAM and 240GB SSD. Supported OS Windows XP.
The games in this video are: Red Alert 3 ( But personally I more prefer Red Alert 2 ), Enter the Matrix, SWAT4, Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas 2 and Duke Nukem Forever.
✔️Disclaimer: I Done this project for personal use only, not for sale or any other distribution now or in the future. Also, personally I do Not sell any components, other hardware or software.

Dude I love these vintage ROG designs! Mid 2000s is definitely my favourite time for tech design
I am Andrew best intro ever glad you back missed your vids in last few weeks 🙂 sure when I watch video with my dinner soon it will be top class as ever 😀
Terrific video once again Andrew 🥰🏆🎉! It’s amazing to see these machines restored to their former glory! You always do an amazing job with these pc’s & laptops. Keep the videos coming and and as always looking forward to your next episode 🥰🥰.
Wow, your camera work has gotten a MASSIVE improvement since the last few months, been watching almost every vid since your first restored laptop, keep up the good work man!
That Windows XP initialization sound....aaah, so many memories! One more amazing job, Andrew!!
I have been binge watching all your videos , I was really delighted when you released a new video.
You are amazing dude! I love that you detail clean every part even if they're inside parts. And love how you take care attetion to the details. Hope you keep up with the good work! Greetings from Argentina
I am so happy to see you restoring all the laptops to new and upgraded condition. It's such a shame to see these being thrown to e-waste. Keep up the inspirational work. My next project just might be one of these laptops...👍
I've got an early ROG laptop as well, a 2008 Asus ROG G50VT-X5. In fact, it's still being used regular in my house! It's been upgraded with an SSD boot drive and a CPU swap awhile back (from midrange Core2Duo to a higher end Core2Duo). It's been a great laptop.
Very good work Andrew! Thanks for your good ideas!
It's so nice to hear the correct pronunciation for Asus. Very thorough repair of this laptop. It's an expensive laptop.

Really enjoyed watching. Thanks for the content. Much love!

Great work Andrew!
Didn't see the video yet but I know it's gon' be amazing. Keep up the good work (I'll edit when I'll have watched the whole thing)
This is why I've subscribed. Amazing restoration.
Finally! I’ve been waiting what feels like years for my therapy video! Thanks 🙏
Awesome Work !
Looks amazing :D Thank you so much for the video!
Te quedó muy bien, te felicito. Muy buen vídeo.
Hey Andrew! Nice work as always! I think a linux distribution would be perfect for this notebook. Greetings from Brazil!

Hi Andrew glad your back but wish you could do a weekly video as you do grea content and we would love to see more of it 👍👍👍
Great job it looks awesome
Great video Andrew keep it up . We want more videos like this but unfortunately you post them late .if possible try posting frequently (just a request )
It looks brand new 😍
Good thing you pointed out that the max CPU supported is the T7600! The T7400, T9300, T9550 are actually for 3 completely different generations of laptops! T7400/T7600 is completely non-interchangable with the latter 2 as it's a totally different socket pinout, or else you blow up your motherboard! I hear far too many people make this mistake... T9300, T9550 are 2 different generations and a laptop with T9550 inside will work with T9300 (GM/PM45 chipset), but most likely not the other way around short of FSB mods (965PM/GM, GL40)!
Andrew touch heatsink and pipes *ah it's hot* Also andrew : touch repeatedly
U clean everything very deep
Nice work!!!
Good job Andrew 👍👍👍

Great restoration. Try and see if you can find 2x 2GB DDR2 in future, to bump it to 4GB DDR2 - that would help with games. :) I really want to get a gaming laptop for Windows XP games at some point in the future - the only Windows XP laptop I currently have is a packard Bell with Core 2 Dup T5200, 2GB DDR2 (maxed out?) and whatever the integrated graphics are. Oh, and a 160GB IDE hard drive - yes, that thing still uses IDE.

When the key caps of a keyboard are detachable: just get them out, put them together in a washing bag and toss them into the washing machine. It's quicker and more efficient. :)
Very good content thank you
Clean and neat!
Setup Tour please 🔥Big fan 🤗
When Andrew Restored a laptop it is having a better look than the company release :)
Red alert 2, man that brings back memories
Yeah! Nice restoration work, with the ssd increase dramatically the speed, I have the same laptop but with windows 7 when I buy the pre installed os is vista 😂
Great video, it's been a while since I heard that Windows XP startup sound. Can you do an in-depth tutorial on how to disassemble a laptop? Even if it's an hour long video...
Ur a legend man
Can’t wait for the next video.
great work my friend! i love your videos specially the gaming laptops! can you please show us the bios of this laptop?
Back in the days, this laptop is only thing i could wish to have.
For this new project we will need 5 liters of isopropyl alcohol xD u're so clever mate, good job!
Awesome 👌
Nice job
Very good choice of games
Hi. Tip: for easy remove old "stone" termopaste use heat fan from soldering station - 30-60sec on 100 C. Also you can use aerosol "deagreser" or "fluxoff".
So satisfying ♥️

Great restoration! I think there's something wrong with the background music... And my only suggestion is: start trying Linux on these very old laptops, you might be surprised with the performance and how many games you can run! Yes, even Windows games! Keep up the great videos :)
Always the best!!!! 😍😍😍😍
Asus Laptops are built like tanks, had a few, lasted a long time haha. Tech from the era 2003-2009 doesnt dissapoint.
That's one of the rarest laptop that've been still working since 2007. It will be worth a lot if ROG collector looked for it and be on list of auction. Just a thought
Excelent videos!!!!! laptop+++power!!!!❤❤❤❤❤💪💪💪👌👌👌⚡⚡⚡⚡🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷
I have Asus M50Vn, still working good in great condition after 14 years. it has Nvidia 9650M GT, C2D P8600. Ive upgraded it with X9100 CPU, 860 Evo SSD, 8GB (2x4gb) DDR2 ram.
Other than being in a verge condition and having smol harvard issues, looks pretty cool.
