    After 1 month with the Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 RTX 4070 version, I have a pretty good picture of what's bad, and what's good (there's a LOT of good, and not a lot of bad :)).
    I'll go pretty in-depth about some things in this video, so I hope I can help some people out with this!

    Thanks for this review! Just got my G14 (white) and been using it for almost 2 weeks now. It's my daily driver laptop for work and gaming. The build quality, display, keyboard, and trackpad are top-notch. I'm glad Asus just went sleek and premium with the Zephyrus this year, so it doesn't scream GAMING like other models. Plus, I can get 7-10 hours of productivity (light load) when I work outside. Love it!

      Exactly, they name it white, but only the keycaps are white. The body is silvery-ish which I prefer more than just regular white. When using it on battery, the screen drops to 60Hz (about 50-60% brightness). I set GPU mode at 'optimized' so it uses only the integrated graphics on light load. I also set battery profile to battery saver. And yeah I can achieve amazing battery performance out of it! :) (The gray one looks dope tbh.)

    Hey really enjoyed the review! I’m looking to get a laptop for college, gaming, and some other processing work, and this looked like a really good option. I’m mainly trying to get some serious power in a laptop while having it look like more of a regular laptop does, which is what the 2024 G14 does perfectly. Would you recommend this laptop for what I said above or would there be any other candidates that can fare just as well?

    • @crimsontechyt

      If you havr the money for it, imo this is the best 14 inch laptop you can buy. It's slim, lightweight, looks NORMAL, and has a 90W 4070 in it, which is plenty fast enough for any modern game.

    • @crimsontechyt
      @crimsontechyt  14 дней назад +2

      Thank you! :D
      If you're used to a bigger screen size, it might be a better option for a laptop for you. But do keep in mind that the weight increases significantly when you size-up a laptop. The G14 is a 2kg package when you include the charger, and the G16 is almost 3kg with the charger.
      If carrying weight isnt an issue for you though, DEFINITELY get the G16. You get more performance, a bigger display, better cooling, better speakers, etc. :)

      The anti burn-in features are not handled by AC, but are rather built in to the display itself, and Windows settings. Inside AC, you can simply control them from 1 place. These settings are on by default, so you can install G-Helper right away if you'd want to.

    I'm still on the fence about the 2024 G16 but i think the portability of the G14 will be better in most situations.

    does it get hot and do the fans make lots of noise while playing ?

    • @crimsontechyt
      @crimsontechyt  Месяц назад +1

      The CPU does get hot, but that's just AMDs thermal design, which always wants to hover around 90-95 degrees. However, you will BARELY feel it on the chassis. The cooling system is designed to handle it, so the keyboard deck (except up towards the screen obviosuly) will not feel uncomfortably hot to the touch. The fans do make noise while gaming, since its a full load application, but not loud at all compared to other gaming laptops.
      If the noise is still too much, you could of course set a custom fan profile to change that to your liking :)

      Keep in mind that AMD CPUs use as much thermanl headroom as possible, so chip temperatures at 90-95 degrees is normal!
      You could set a custom fan profile, so that it cools it more aggressively. The top part of the laptop being hot is normal, as this happens with every gaming laptop, but the keyboard and palm rest should stay cool to the touch.

    Thank you for this review, we needed this after a month to see if you still impressed by it or you were happy with the new device back then :D
    However I have 3 questions:
    1. Does the battery still last long, or has its lifespan been reduced?
    2. If you sit in front of a fan or outdoor with regular wind (not a storm obviously :D) will the screen wobble ?
    3. while moderate/heavy use but not playing game, does it get too hot to touch ? because I heard heating is an issue with Asus laptops

    • @crimsontechyt
      @crimsontechyt  Месяц назад +2

      Thank you. I'm glad i could help :)
      1. The battery life hasnt changed, and because i had the time to test different power profiles, i could actually make it last longer, from running the cpu at lower wattages. The customizeability is very handy for when you NEED the battery life.
      2. No, the screen doesn't wobble from wind or outside factors (i live in the netherlands, so i've had plenty of wind to test it out xd). The only time it wobbles is if you touch it yourself.
      3. With the default power profiles (so turbo for example), the CPU doesn't go higher than 90-95 degrees (which is normal). With custom profiles, you could set the fans at a higher speed (with more noise, though), which will keep it cooler. But to the touch, only the part above the keyboard is hot to the touch. The keyboard and the part below the keyboard do not get that hot at all, so you wont feel the heat.

    • @crimsontechyt
      @crimsontechyt  Месяц назад

      The Blade downclocks its CPU slightly when putting it on manual fan mode, so that might partly be why it cools down so quickly :)
      The G14 has a closed fan loop though, so you wont feel air coming out of the top through the keyboard. It does have 3 fans on the inside though (one that goes through the middle part of the chassis), so the keyboard deck NEVER gets hot in my experience (my Razer blade's chassis did get hot quickly, but i never knew why). If heat is ever an issue, you could simply set a more aggressive fan curve :)

    • @crimsontechyt
      @crimsontechyt  Месяц назад +1

      They're using Samsung panels, which retain all their anti burn-in functions from their previous displays, which means you could probably use it every day for 8 hours, and still not get burn-in after 5 years.
      A lot of tests have been done around these, and even in the cheapest modern day OLEDs, burn-in is basically non-existant during normal use :)
      Someone on RUclips kept an LG C1 on the same screen for 18 months, and still didnt get burn-in. And that's an OLD panel by now.
      THAT BEING SAID:
      I'd still auto-hide the taskbar if you're concerned about burn-in, or are a HEAVY user (screen on 24/7).

      During gaming the CPU doesnt get hotter than 90-95 (so normal for AMD laptop chips), and the GPU doesnt go higher than about 80 during gaming.
      That's in the normal Turbo fan profile, so you could get those temps down if you want to by running the fans at a higher speed, but there's not really any need to.

      OLED has near instant response times, so for quick and fluid motion, it's amazing.
      A bigger screen will let you see further easier though.
      If you only play close quarters competitive games like CS2 and COD, a smaller display is more than fine.

      The 4060 is around 10-20% slower than a full wattage 4070, so that's up to you if it's a noticeable downgrade in performance.

    • @crimsontechyt
      @crimsontechyt  Месяц назад +1

      That's a tricky question because it depends on a lot of things. To get the most out of the battery, you need to do the following things:
      - lower screen brightness, and set refresh rate to 60Hz
      - Disable the dGPU by setting it to Eco mode
      - Use the silent profile (or a custom one)
      - Set the CPU power limit lower (like 25w or less)
      - Don't run heavy programs
      But it depends on which programs you need to use for school as well.
      I can easily get 8-10 hours of usage with these settings while using light programs like Edge, Office, etc.
      It should be good :)

      Then, go to the github page for G-Helper, and download the zip file. Unpack that zip-file, and open the exe inside. Keep it somewhere, and choose inside G-Helper to let it start with windows, so you dont have to manually start it everytime your laptop starts up.

It was like new, with, as far as I could tell, just the seal broken, plastic wrap taken off the box and slightly cut off of the charger and possibly the keyboard sheet cover thing missing, but other than those minor things the laptop and charger appeared perfectly untouched and brand new! So definitely think it was a great deal and way to save some money. Usually I wouldn't buy anything Open-Box, but I had a bit of time to play with, and it saved me a decent amount of money.

      The bigger size does mean they have more cooling yes, but only the CPU can take advantage of that extra cooling (especially if it has a recent intel chip, which can perform CRAZY with all that extra power and thermal headroom).

    the oled burn in for me is just a huge turn off especially when your spending alot for it to just last at least 2 years

    • @crimsontechyt

      Oled burn in is not an issue anymore like it was 5 years ago. There's so many anti burn in techniques on modern panels that it takes a LONG time to notice any considerable difference

    Is it just me or is battlefield 1 super well optimized!? I remember playing it at Ultra 1080p 60+ FPS on a 1060 Max Q laptop - and the game looks better than most 2023 titles

      I remember it running amazingly on my 1060 as well, it's just a great title overall :)

    "1 Month Review" you shouldn't tell us what we already know from previous reviews like the specs and stuff. Tell us about your personal experience using it for example how's the fan noise, battery life with normal tasks, anything about the G14 that annoys you, how hot does it really get under load etc. These are some of the information we are more interested in after someone uses it for a month.

    • @crimsontechyt
      @crimsontechyt  Месяц назад +2

      I don't have accurate readings for fan noise, so it would be a very subjective analysis for fan noise unfortunately. I spoke about battery life in the full review, when i did extensive tests on it, but i should have repeated those in this video.
      I try to keep videos fresh each time, so that new viewers that may not have watched the older videos get all the info as well :)
      As for annoyances, i really didnt have any with this laptop!
      Normally i tell all the positives and negatives in reviews, but i actually didnt find any bad parts about this laptop after 1 month xd

      @@crimsontechyt Fair enough. Does the fan noise drowns the speaker while gaming? Is it audible in normal tasks? I don't really need to know the decibels.

    • @crimsontechyt
      @crimsontechyt  Месяц назад

      The fan noise is audible while gaming, but with my speakers at 40% with Dolby sound set on "Movie", the game's sound MORE than drowned out the fan noise. And it could get a whole lot louder, so that shouldn't be a huge concern. Of course headphones are always an option :D
      During normal tasks in Silent mode, the fans don't even turn on, so it's really quiet.
