Use this guide if you need to replace the motherboard in your Asus ROG G752V.
The motherboard acts as a single platform to connect all of the parts of a computer together. It serves as the computer's nervous system.
Reasons to replace your motherboard:
- Physical damage to the board
- If peripherals work intermittently, try using different peripherals in different ports to see if it is a bad port, bad peripheral, or bad motherboard
- Computer does not post (No bios on startup)
- Upgrades
Before beginning, make sure to power off your computer. Disconnect it from any external power source. Remove dust build-up with a dust blower.

Use your hands to remove the battery.
The second set of wires going to the battery (shown on the right side between the tech's thumb and forefinger) are attached to a strip glued to the back of the battery. I believe it is a temperature sensor of some kind. Carefully peel it off the old battery, being careful not to bend it and press it to onto the new battery. There are two holes in the sensor strip, on at the right in the corner, another at the left end in the center. On the battery, there are two very small, hard to see alignment points to fit into those holes.

How should I use my hand?
What card type is that? What can replace it?
I replaced my M.2 wifi card with a new Intel AX210.
Very good upgrade!
I now have WiFi6 and Bluetooth 5.2
You should probably go ahead and order new IPEX 4 MHF4 Antenna 2.4GHz 5GHz 3dBi Internal Laptop WiFi Antenna for M.2. - just so you have them. To replace the antennas, there are 4 screws at the bottom of the screen (hidden behind plastic covers). Once you get those screws out you will be able to pop the bezel off starting at the left and right sides on the top. After you get the bezel off, disconnect the camera module then unscrew the lcd mounts and fold the lcd away from the shell so that you can run the new antenna. Mind how they routed and taped the old antenna wires and do the same with the new antenna.
