Introduction
This guide will show you how to replace the RAM in your Asus Q534U laptop. Perhaps your laptop is experiencing slow-downs with multiple programs open, signaling that you may need to upgrade to a larger amount of RAM. Or maybe your laptop won’t boot, indicating that your current RAM may be faulty. If you need to upgrade to a larger capacity RAM stick, or if your current RAM is faulty and in need of replacement, this guide will help you through the process.
The RAM is located underneath a metal cover on the motherboard so it will not be immediately visible upon opening the case. However, the metal cover can be easily pried from the motherboard, for it is affixed by a clip mechanism rather than screws or glue. To replace the metal cover, be sure to align all four sides of the cover with each of the clips and simply press it into place.
What you need

Use a T5 screwdriver to remove all 10 screws that secure the bottom cover.

One question: I have this model and have determined that I have a bad stick of RAM. I have removed this stick but still have 8 gigs available. Is there another stick that I m not seeing or is this built in?
