    Asus X441UV REV2.1 remove Nvidia gpu

    I am working on Asus X441UV with Nvidia 930mx 4gb.
    The whole power rail is fine except the GPU heats up at the first boot.
    is it possible to remove the entire GPU component and flash a similar BIOS?

    FYI:
    I don't have a BGA workstation so the option is just to remove all GPU components with Hot Blower QUICK 850 analog and solder.

      Dont remove the dgpu without getting a schematic(with asus thats a game).
      Simply removing dgpu may not make it uma. there may be straps to modify.
      You wont know them without schematics.
      Are you sure your dgpu is faulty? What's the basis of your conclusion?

        I just have the boardview.
        The laptop turning on. No display.
        Vin 19.5v distribute entirely.
        1.2v ok
        3.3v ok
        5v ok
        MOSFETs good.

        Everytime it boot up on 1,2a, the gpu start to heat up that I can't touch. I don't have a thermal camera. Just using my finger tips to track the heat.

        Please guide me if my judgement are incorrect.
