MSI GF75 Thin Disassembly (RAM, M.2 SSD upgrade options)

The bottom cover of the MSI GF75 Thin is made of plastic with a number of small holes distributed to improve cooling performance. From these small holes, you can vaguely see the internal copper pipe structure.

First, remove all the screws that fix the bottom cover. There is a screw covered with MSI’s fragile sticker. If it is damaged, you will lose the warranty, so I recommend you not upgrade the memory and SSD yourself during the warranty period.

MSI GF75 Thin adopts a dual fan and four copper tube heat dissipation systems. The CPU and GPU are covered by two heat pipes. The heatsink has a heat plate to cover the video memory and other components. A single heat pipe on each heat dissipation module has an independent air outlet to ensure heat dissipation efficiency.

The battery can’t see the specification information. Maybe the battery information is on the back, which we can’t see. We use AIDA64 to detect that its capacity is 51Wh.

On the left side of the battery, there is an HDD slot that can be installed with a 2.5-inch hard drive or 2.5-inch SATA SSD. However, MSI does not reserve an HDD caddy, so if you want to add an SSD, you need to purchase one.

This notebook provides two memory slots. My notebook has only one 8GB DDR4 2666MHz memory from SK Hynix. If necessary, you can add memory to form a dual-channel memory.

RAM

This is Kingston 512GB M.2 SSD and supports NVMe protocol.

This notebook comes with an AX201NGW wireless network card, which supports up to 2×2 MIMO 160MHz connections under Wi-Fi 6, and the maximum speed is 2.4Gbps.
