Repairs we carry out on the ASUS TUF Gaming A18 FA808

Screen replacement

We replace the 18-inch panel with one that matches the original resolution and refresh rate. A cheaper 60Hz panel will physically fit many gaming laptops, and we do not fit one unless you ask for it.

Price confirmed before work starts

Battery replacement

A new internal battery is fitted and tested through a full charge and discharge.

Price confirmed before work starts

Charging port and power repair

We replace worn charging sockets and repair USB-C ports and charging circuits at component level. The adapter is tested first, because it is the cheapest thing to be wrong.

Overheating and fan repair

A thermal service covers fresh compound on the processor and graphics chip, new thermal pads where needed and both fans cleaned. It is the usual cure for throttling and loud fans under load.

SSD and storage upgrade

Most configurations of the ASUS TUF Gaming A18 FA808 have two M.2 slots, so a second SSD can be added, or the existing one cloned to a larger drive.

Price confirmed before work starts

Memory upgrade

Most configurations of the ASUS TUF Gaming A18 FA808 have SODIMM memory slots, so memory can be increased. We check what is fitted and the maximum the board supports.

Graphics repair

The graphics chip is soldered to the board. Artefacts, crashes under load and a black screen with the fans running are diagnosed to the chip, its memory or its power stage, and repaired at board level where it is economical.

Windows repair and reinstall

The ASUS TUF Gaming A18 FA808 shipped with Windows 11. We repair start-up faults, reinstall Windows cleanly with your files kept, and remove malware.

We also carry out keyboard and trackpad repair, motherboard repair, liquid damage repair, hinge and casing repair, virus removal on the ASUS TUF Gaming A18 FA808, along with USB, HDMI and audio port repair, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth card replacement, webcam and speaker faults, BIOS password removal with proof of ownership and data transfer to a new machine.

What we see on the bench

  • TUF laptops usually have two memory slots and at least two M.2 slots.
  • Dust and dried compound cause the throttling and fan noise we are most often asked about.

Data recovery from the ASUS TUF Gaming A18 FA808

The SSD in the ASUS TUF Gaming A18 FA808 can be removed and imaged on our own equipment, so files can usually be recovered even when the machine will not start. Recent Windows machines often have device encryption or BitLocker switched on. If so we will need the recovery key, which is normally saved in your Microsoft account.

Questions

Can the SSD or memory in the ASUS TUF Gaming A18 FA808 be upgraded?

The SSD can be replaced, and most configurations have a second M.2 slot. Memory is in slots on most configurations and can be increased.

My ASUS TUF Gaming A18 FA808 will not turn on. Is my data lost?

Usually not. The drive is separate from the fault in most cases, and we can remove it and copy your files even if the machine itself is not worth repairing.

Is my ASUS TUF Gaming A18 FA808 still under warranty?

It may be. Machines from 2025 are often still inside the manufacturer's warranty, which covers faults but not accidental damage such as a cracked screen or a spill. Check that first; we repair what the warranty does not cover.

Where do I find the model number on my gaming laptop?

The base label shows the model code, for example UX425EA. The first part is the family and the letters after it are the variant. For this model, look for FA808.
