What size of screwdriver is needed to unscrew the bottom of an Asus Gl551jm

[Redeagle13]

(Man, i've done so many threads on my laptop alone that it feels like im spamming by now) So, I found out HOW to disassemble my asus laptop. However, I dont exactly know what size of screwdriver would be needed to do so. I've even gone to the ASUS forums and see if there were any answers to my question. But, all I got was a link that shows HOW to disassemble the laptop but with barely any information on the screw sizes.

Long story short: I just wanna what size of screwdriver is needed in order to do some disassembling to my laptop
Thank you for helping me

... If all the screws are philips-head then you can use pretty much any screwdriver as long as it's not actually too small.

Too large is just as bad as too small.

It is most likely torx screws? https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torx

If it looks like this:

Unless you try using a shovel-sized screwdriver on a tiny screw then not really.

Unfortunately, the screws Arnt of that type. They are Phillips/Phillips heads (however its called)

Yeah, just use a screwdriver roughly the size of the screw. Going a little bigger won't make a difference.

The set I linked above. Go buy that, or whatever is similar at your local store.
Taking apart a laptop, you will likely need a couple of different sizes.
