Hey so the strap on my laptop got deattached and fell on the ground. The laptop was turned off. It seems to work flawless but are there anything to worry about? Its a New Asus rog scar2.

Thanks for the reply. Wich parts are prone to be more likely to get damaged by this if at all?

Im namely scared bout the GPU.

There's no point worrying about the damage from the fall because there's typically nothing you could do about it. If your GPU is damaged physically, then it's essentially damaged forever. No need to agonize about things you have no control over.

If it is working, it is working. The nature of electronics.

If it is still under warranty and there are no signs of physical damage, just keep an eye on it. Only thing I might be worried about would be some of the internal connectors, but they should be taped in place, or under enough mechanical stress they can't move.
