For me, it was the price to performance ratio, it just can't be beat,, at least at the time I picked mine up I got it for a flat $1k USD.
This laptop is actually not so practical as this has no Dedicated Home, End , Page up, Page Down keys.
Gaming laptop review with no gaming tests. Amazing

I love that customizable LED/fiber optics lighting on the front panel. Always respect companies trying new things, and interested to see other tech with this type of thing integrated.
Keep in mind that the way that ddr5 works, if you put 24 GB of RAM in it, you actually get 16 GB of RAM operating in quad channel and then the other 8 GB operating in dual channel. You can mix and match and that way if you're not using all of the ram you get the full performance but if you're using more than the 16 then it means clearly it's better to have it than not to have it so in all situations it's still better
Woah that’s cool, wish I had known that before buying the 2021 model other day, still satisfied tho
@@free.k6ry83 Yeah! All of them are great. I have 40 GB of RAM in mine and if my usage is less than 16 then I get the full quad channel performance but if I use more than that then I'm getting only dual channel but let's be honest, if I'm using 35 GB of RAM in dual channel, it's still going to be faster than not having enough in quad channel.
No you don't, a memory controller will run all of the ram in the same configuration. DDR5 does have a 2x 32bit bus so 2 sticks would technically be quad channel but Intel still considers it dual channel. There would be no advantage in switching the number of ram channels.
@@pilotavery - If you make your page file too big you will slow the system down as it will dump a lot of files in there rather than storing it in the memory. The speed of the memory will remain constant only the amount being used will change. Reducing the page file was an optimization tip on Windows XP and Windows 7 before we had SSD's. It will say quad channel because technically it is with 2 x 32 bit bandwidth on each stick. Intel will still consider it as dual channel as the memory controller on the cpu only has 2 channels.
@@marcustaylor670 yes, well Intel ddr5 controllers don't have this feature until the next generation. It's already announced on the next generation. But I have an AMD chip so I get the full speed :)
I wanted to throw in, the design of the laptop lid raising the actual base of the laptop is incredible. As a laptop gamer this model just makes sense. You can now get away without having to purchase a laptop stand or cooler and get lower temperatures than a standard model gaming laptop. I ended up going with the 14inch 2021 razor blade which I have 0 regrets for but I am a laptop addict so I am here looking 👀. I was either going for this model or the 2021 blade both incredible machines!
Oh yeah game and put pressure on the screen.
i havent actually heard of any issues with the hot air going against the screen suprisingly@@Lampaluile
@@Lampaluileare you mentally disabled?
Looking to buy a laptop right now and almost looked over this one because you said 16 by 9 aspect ratio at first, but thankfully you mention later its 16 by 10 which it actually is and now this is starting to look like my choice.
I have the older model with the 2060 and the ryzen 4900 hs and I love it, use jt mainly for work over the last few years and the occasional gaming while away from home and have had no complains at all. And the size is perfect.
Almost same here except 4800 and gtx1660ti. Still love the machine and the animematrix is fun :)
Soooo many ideas for that led cover display. I'm sold.
I remember when I bought my Alienware laptop in 2008 for $4000. It could only run Crysis on medium, battery lasted 45 min and weighed close to 10 pounds. lmao how far we have come.
Awesome work mate! Just a note, the music is a bit too loud, its a bit hard to hear you well 😃
I personally got one with a 2060 inside before, seeing that they release a new model with way better performance kinda make me feel bad, but I don't really regret it, I didn't buy it for gaming at first, I needed a new laptop and already had a gaming PC, this laptop's design was what stood out to me, and if it wasn't that I got a 3070ti gaming laptop for thanksgiving gift, I would prob be using it rn still
why did you get such a huge thanksgiving gift?
@@elmalloc who gives gifts on thanks giving 😂😂
@@electricflow8827 Especially when they already have a gaming PC and a laptop capable of gaming, they obviously needed a separate gaming laptop...
@@electricflow8827 well come to think of it, it actually makes perfect sense to give thanks giving gifts. A great way to say thank you 😀😍🙏🏻
@@electricflow8827 I actually got this right after thanksgiving from my dad 😅
Great video!! looking for editing and gaming pc. This seems like a great option! BTW what is your set up for recording video I like the switching from diferente cameras and angles used on this one, hope you can provide some guidance
I want the RX6700s option GPU though I also want 32 of RAM (or even more if supported). Please what do you advise I do?
Good video.. It is a gaming laptop but no games were played in the video. Only benchmarks. It would be nice to show off some games for understanding FPS performance. I have the same laptop only 2020 model. One problem that I ran into was that keyboard was getting really hot during gaming. Is that problem also happening with this new model or did they figure out the cooling?
Its a thin and light gaming laptop, you have to expect heat even on the keyboard. The best thing you can do is for games that do not need max resources; I would lower the tdp of the cpu and gpu via the asus app. Turning off boost also lowers the temps drastically
RTings reviewed the laptop and pointed a thermal camera at the keyboard, looks like it still ggets hot
finally a review where it actually shows the product from different angles and different perspectives. I'd also like to see the features and specs as text when you mention them. thanks for the review
Looking to replace my Razer Blade 2017. Should I consider Zephyrus 15 or 16 inch for 17 inch gaming laptop?
There's a typo in the title -> Zephyrus.
Excellent review as usual, would like to include some lightroom experience, but has to be smooth.
I was wondering about the same and you were very capable and keen on answering the question. Thank you for letting us know the real reason. It is good to know. Your approach in reasoning and answering many aspects of the products were informative and makes sense. Thank you for sharing with us your knowledge. Please making such informative and knowledgeable videos. We really appreciate it.
It's absolutely AMAZING! I have the 2021 version, with the Ryzen 9 5900 and the 3060 and its a dream. I paly ANY game on high at 1080P
You make informative videos and i like them. I want to ask you Can you tell me the TBW Life Span / Endurance of Samsung's T7 Shield 1Tb and 2Tb SSDs? Because i want to buy one for myself.
What is the battery life, you mentioned its amazing but did you mention the hours or did I miss it. I used to get 12 to 15 hrs with a 6 cell hotswap battery on my 4 year old T480.
Great video, how do you remap the # key yo ‘Enter’ find myself clicking # all the time instead of Enter (the traditional key enter key shape is split into 2 parts)? Cheers
Was considering buying one of them, but white and 32gb was almost impossible to get in Europe. And now that I can get one, I am tempted to wait for a RDNA3 refresh. Ideally they would offer a glossy OLED option. I'd pay an extra 500 Euros just for that.
LOL and "OLED" 😒really? why... 😮💨
They're not gonna have an oled model, only mini led next year and its only on the 4080/90 models believe
Just got the 32gb model on sale for 1800€, feels like a steal
@@energyvampire1672 Because the picture quality and brightness usually outweigh the slight increase in power demand, at least for me, but it depends on the specific hardware options.
@@davidf760 Yeah, with the current sales I am also thinking hard. Also, the new models are not very convincing, especially with Nvidia scummy naming, downgrading and ridiculous pricing.
Just bought the exact model you reviewed "Open Box" from Best Buy for $1019 CAD! Can't wait for it to arrive :D
Excellent video, I am between this Asus G14 amd gpu 6700 laptop and the HP OMEN 16 2023 which has the ports on the back the amd 6650 gpu both with QHD screen the G14 is 120Hz and the HP is 165 Hz between these laptops Which do you think would be better? I wanted it for work and for the flight simulator 2021
Is ryzen heat much than Intel, also suggest me if I should go with asus G14 2021/2022 OR hp omen 16/17
I noticed a glossy "strip" at the back edge of the laptop lid. Is this metal? Plastic? Does that glossy part scratch easily? Probably wouldn't notice with white color, anyway, but just curious. Thanks!
Design looks awesome, especially the backfront screen
I bought the 6800s, 16gb ram model and I love it! Yes the battery is amazing as well because its a compact 14in laptop. (Perfect for the go)
Are there any heating issues?
@@sampadkar19 I’ve owned the G14 for a bit and have had no issues from a heating perspective. Is it warm? Yes. Does it kill performance? Not really. This little beast performs tremendously well for what it is. Very happy.
@@Juiced.9 are u having the Ryzen 7/Radeon 6700S or the Ryzen 9 / Radeon 6800S ?
@@sampadkar19 6800s model.
@@Juiced.9 ok 👍
My gaming laptop is at 1 Ghz, 333 mhz ram speed at 50% load in energy saving mode. It had disabled dpms and performance functions, the Ati vga was also restricted to operate at lower performance. My trick is, 10 discharges in Windows, the 11th is in Bios. By doing this, functions start to become enabled. Asus needs 3 discharges in Windows, but may need button cell removal for the tricks .
This could be a dumb question but currently I only see the white version selling for 1099 on best buy, I want to ask if there is a black version selling for a similar price, thanks!
I have the old lower tier one with Ryzen 7 4800HS and gtx 1650 and 2k display mostly for my work and it's a treat to use this laptop awesome battery life and good performance and good for casual gaming I bought it 1.5 years back and my money was spent well.
Good cpu and gpu pairing. My msi delta15 uses almost the same specs and its a beast for the sale price I got.
The only missing is USB4 and a touch screen. great review as always.
Bought this(got the 6700s) and so far doing great, except for the usual heat (80-85%) that I need an extra cooling from a pad, also Animatrix seem to be more suited for streamers, DJs and the like not cup of tea. But overall I like this small gaming laptop, my m14x r2 before was my machine and this will replace it for sure in terms of work and play.
What did you buy for cooling your laptop? I also want one so bad
@@Mr.DISRESPECT cooler master xlite II
@@hoymikey thanks man, i appreciate that
has anyone encountered issue with these series where a few keys on the laptop just stops working? For me it is the L, \, ; as well as downward arrow key that just don't work. Does anyone have any quick fix or solutions to this issue?
I almost fell in love and nearly sold on this laptop... but the lack of upgradablility kills it for me. only access to one ram stick with the rest soldered and only one m.2 ssd Breakin ma heart ;-; I really liked the cool leds...
I do a lot of architecture work including tons of 3d modelling and 3d rendering and even my rtx 3070 pc sometimes lag and can’t keep up… is 6800 faster than rtx3070?
I'd upgrade it they can get 12-16vram option or xg mobile integration a razer blade 14 with 16 gb vram is hard to urge unless the upgrades of ram and microsd slot issues
Love the review, thx m8!
love the video bro great work
What gpu would you recommend for feature film character animators? Using Maya and get real time playback in the view port?

nice review, but should be more specific with numbers. for example "battery life is incredible" but how many hours does that translate to? thanks!
Would of been nice to see some coverage of the AMD Advantage Certification performance. S.A.M. and the other ecosystem advancements like the CPU/GPU power management
I’ve got the G14 R9 5900HS 3060RTX and it’s amazing. Love it. Little power house.
wym new favorite this has been a favorite for the past two years
I just bought the 2021 model last year then this thing came out after that. And its looks more beautiful. Damn...
i have this laptop, but now for some reason it wont power on at all, took it to the repair shop and guy said there were no shorts or any physical damage seen, just that it wasnt getting enough volts to turn on even when he injected volts into it.
Best Buy couldn't fix my 2021 Razer Blade 14 w/ 3060 + 5900HX but they gave me full price store credit and I walked in and grabbed a one day open box G14 w/ 6900HS + 6700S for about $1400. Definitely would have gotten the Animetrix model but I thought they all had that feature. I threw in a 16GB stick in and now have 24GB's (8GB+16GB expanded). I REALLY like this laptop sometimes the 6700S trails behind the 3060 Laptop performance but often it is just faster. Also, you can game on integrated graphics pretty well using only a 100watt USB-C charger! Definitely wish I got the G14 last year over the Blade 14 which is more expensive.
Yeah Razer laptops are trash. I had a blade 15 and it broke after 2 years, never again...
It’s on sale for $1200 at Best Buy right now. Go take the price reduction if you still can.
@@timlolxP I've had good experiences with Razer laptops. Had a 2016 one and it lasted till 2021. Just in general I've had good experiences with Razer, the only time they've broke on me is after years of use, at least 4 years minimum. I've got the newest Razer Blade 14 2022 and it's been a blast using it. Been chucking a lot of intensive tasks and it's been performing EXTREMELY well and hasn't busted on me yet
Was one of my picks for a new laptop this year after my Nitro 5 purchase ended up being a dud, but I ultimately chose the 2022 Legion 5i with the 3060/12700H combo. Very happy with that one.
But I will say, the G14, especially in grey is one of the nicest looking laptops in the market. The all AMD option on this one is neat and I'm sure it offers great battery life when not plugged in.
Hey, i was wondering what your review is on the legion that you own and do you also own a g14?
@Tech, Gaming and Lifestyle I'd call it an A tier laptop if I had to rate it like Jarrod rates laptops. The only reason it's not a higher S tier is that there's two things it lacks; Windows Hello support and a long battery life, but to be fair I expected the latter and picked the 12700H CPU accordingly because I needed more power than battery life. Otherwise I'd have gone with a 6800H model. Fingerprint unlock/Windows Hello would have been nice though.
Overall very happy with it. At 1440p I'm running Cyberpunk maxed out with all raytracing settings on and DLSS set to Performance. It maxes out all the games in my library easily. Very happy with the gaming performance and performance in general use and productivity use.
The G14 I don't own but like I said it was one of my picks. I took everything into consideration and chose the Legion 5i over something slimmer like the G14 because I need the extra power over portability. But maybe next year pr the year after I'll buy a new gen all AMD G14. I love the aesthetics of it.
@@aninfinitemindofmusicandreams that was highly detailed, thankyou so much. I am a software developer-to-be with a passion for gaming and i was looking for laptop that would last be for a couple of coming years with a locked 60 fps on max settings. So thats why its been really confusing for me as ive never really had flashy equipment before like a gaming pc or a laptop
What is the problem you encountered with nitro5 since I've ordered one i would've ordered the legion but the 3060 legion had surpassed by budget by like £150
@Mister cap This was just my case with my Nitro 5, might not be the case for you, although I've scoured the Reddit sub for Acer Nitro and found many others who had similar issues to mine.
My screen automatically started glitching two months into using the Nitro 5. 144hz mode stopped working and then later 60hz. It wasn't a driver issue or software issue. Later the 60hz fixed itself but the 144hz mode is still broken to this day.
Second issue was the exceptionally bad thermals. The laptop often hit high temps that made it BSOD. I kept the fans at maximum and bought a stand for it and made the CPU run at 99%. That helped a little but these are not things I needed to do for my older ASUS TUF or my new Legion 5i. I think Acer improved the thermals for this year's Nitro so you don't have to do any of this, so if yours is a 2022 model you're probably good.
But with there is 8gb solded and put another 32gb ram ddr then will get 40 GB right ? I saw in amazon selling with this number of RAM.
I heard some say that they dropped frames in premier pro on this device. Have you experienced this? My college cource uses the adobe creative suite
Get the G15 if you are more into creative applications or last years Ryzen 5000 G14 as these are available with NVIDIA GPUs which are better suited for these tasks.
What exactly the model number is? The one in Bestbuy does not come with Anime Matrix. Link please
Using WSL is just perfect for this laptop since you can't worry about 88% cpu usage
So I just bought this, 16gb, 6700s version. Let me get this straight, if I want to upgrade the ram to say 32 gb, I'll be wasting the 8gb that's soldered to the mb?
Mine died on thanksgiving. Still havent got it back yet. Liked it up till then.
Important features to me in a laptop is display, battery, speed and won't over heat.
I have the 3060 144 version. Amazing speed, but can get pretty hot and I’m blind. I say great laptop if you have a second big monitor!
It is an absolutely fantastic laptop -- until it isn't. If something goes wrong with it, my experience is that Asus service is slow and not very good. This applies particularly if the problem is not easy to find. My G14 developed a hardware problem that is causing constant freezes, and it still hasn't been fixed after over three months and sending it to Asus service three times.
Around 2011, I got a custom G73 (can't remember the exact model). It was a fantastic computer that I used exclusively for video and motion graphics work. After about 4 years, it started to freeze out of the blue, to the point I could not longer trust it with render work. After a couple months and several attempts to hack the problem away, I sent it (twice) to a local Asus-authorized shop for review, and they couldn't reproduce the problem. Needless to say, I got "laptop-phobia" for a while and opted for a desktop setup. Here I am, watching reviews for a potential workhorse laptop, seeing and reading good things about this G14, and lo-and-behold, I see someone has suffered the same ailing over 10 years later! What's with Asus ROG and hard locks?😵💫
In any case, did you manage to fix the issue? Did Asus gave you _any_ explanation as to why this might be happening?
@@dantekaoz After over seven months of repeatedly sending it in to Asus “service” and getting it back “fixed” they still couldn’t fix it. They replaced the entire main board twice, among other things. Every time the freezing started again about an hour after powering up. Now Asus has admitted they can’t fix it and has refunded 60% of the original purchase price. But it took 7 months of time wasting, during which time I didn’t have the laptop.
Asus makes nice computers with innovative features. But you need to be aware they have no service. If it ever fails just throw it away or pay to have it fixed by an independent service shop.
The Anime Matrix is great for me .... I wanted a gaming laptop and also needed a new Laptop for DJing , Have a mixture of dancing memes and Equaliser that beats to the music , will also download some Christmas Gifs for upcoming Christmas gigs ...... So much fun , love the review
What version would you recommend for running arcGIS pro
Great review 👍
About the MUX Switch:
Does it allow you to ACTUALLY use the Dedicated-GPU with an external display?
(when connected via the built-in HDMI port, and with the built-in display turned off, aka "secondary display only")
And would this work with older HDMI versions as well?
Please, and thank you.
Edit: The reason I ask is that in the past, laptops would have a built-in HDMI port, but that port would only work with the integrated GPU... Unless you use Linux (I have tested this myself with an Acer v7, which had the nVidia "optimus" 750M but didn't use it with external displays... At least not on windows).
Yeah it does work with dGPU, I'm using it on my TV and it works only when using dGPU, so perhaps that HDMI is dGPU only:)
@@theTechNotice thank you 👍. dGPU-only would be amazing. It's also possible that you can simply switch it using the MUX Switch (plus a reboot).
The real question is if it would work that way regardless of how old the TV is 😅
Also, here's m finding contradicting info: Does this laptop have Bluetooth 5.2, or 5.3?
The anime matrix is like a nice thing that goes by very fast. That is impressive for colleagues at work but it has no practical use. I own a ASUS Vivobook S15 that has a touch pad which can be an alternate screen. It was innovative and I thought that it had a practical use. My colleages were impressed and they wanted to get one also. But I found out that this option is useless. I have never used it in 3 years of daily use. I think the Anime matrix is the same thing. So I just ordered my Zephyrus G14 6700S without this feature, and I was very pleased with the final price compared to the 6800S model with anime matrix.
Apply the Hot Temp Fix changing the Boost in Power Option from Aggressive to Disable while not gaming and Aggressive Efficient while gaming. Also, change GPU to Eco Mode while not gaming. The battery will last 8-9hrs this way.
"Hot Temp Fix changing the Boost in Power Option from Aggressive to Disable while not gaming and Aggressive Efficient while gaming" Isn't an option for this 2022 G14 model. This only applies to the first two G14 before this only. And changing the Eco Mode isn't the only thing. These will also drain wattage from your G14, having anything windows considers gaming will kill your battery period! you have to be on 'Battery Saver' in windows along with Eco Mode. Even having Wallpaper Engine, emulators, not having web browsers set to iGPU, ect...
@@energyvampire1672 I have the 2022 model, the difference is notizable. Also temp will be lower. My laptop temp before disabling aggressive boost was 55-60 C, after disabling it 37-45 depending how many chrome tabs are open.
I've been using mine for about 2 years and I love it
It's good isn't it?!
@@theTechNotice it edits 4k 120 10 bit footage no problem but my model has the 2070ti
I have this exact laptop (with a 6700S GPU). It came with 16GB, but I was able to upgrade the removeable SODIMM from 8GB to 32 GB, so it has 40GB total now. I also upgraded the M.2 to a 2TB Samsung 980 PRO with no problems.
just a heads-up. the official website suggests that any G14 model from 2022 supports up-to 24 gb only. So your added stick can only be upto 16gb. The rest is getting wasted. Also you wanna make sure your added memory is faster or on par with the soldered memory because the motherboard will run both memory modules at the speed of the lowest one installed.
@@NB-mb5mq The official website is incorrect. My 2022 ASUS Zephyrus G14 GA402RJ (with a Ryzen 9 6900HS CPU) has the 8GB soldered stick and a 32GB DDR5-4800 CL40 SODIMM. CPU-Z, HWiNFO64 and Windows all see 40GB of RAM. Nothing is being wasted. The memory controller is in the CPU.
What is the SSD temperature as I heard this model 980 Pro can get toasty, especially in such small laptop? What is the temperature if the laptop is idling on battery and when plugged in?
Did you buy the Crucial 32GB RAM?
Which memory brand did you end up buying?
the latest versions of davinci resolve
they are very very fast the amd gpu in rendering
I tried it on AMD rx 6950xt and r7 7700x
How are the heat issues? Does it shut down or glitch from high thermals?
I know Mr. Monitz mentioned that it shut down on him, but I haven't been able to replicate that problem :)
LED screen at the back is the main reason that i would buy it. :)
I do in love with it in first sight but chose the Legion 5 pro i7 12th+3070 instead. I'm from Vietnam so the price from ordering the Legion from china is way cheaper but highly recommend people to chose the G14 for full AMD combo

No offence. How's the battery life with this gaming laptop even with normal browsing?
I bought the G15 (DDR5, Ryzen 9 6900HS, 3070Ti) back in June and I love it....but it doesn't have the LED's behind the screen like that 😭 If it comes out it gray, I might just consider getting it.
Good choice on the 3070ti. I looked at the choices and anything higher and the gains are smaller considering the cost (and cost in battery and heat.)
Putting a notice on it the LED back screen, if you are in a skype meeting either in office or at a coffee shop. That would allert anyone you know, that would have otherwise approached you and interrupted it, untill you were done with the call via earphones. Most people would only have known once you tell them and intterupt the call or meeting.Could be the same at your office, with the back facing your co workers or staff. So I personally think it is a very usefull feature to have. I would take this in eclipse black. Great info and review, keep up the good work.
So you can inspire more coworkers to interrupt you.
Which is better Asus rog zephyrus g14 or g15 need help
I own this laptop I bought it back in October. I have the 6800! I have had no issues with Amy game I own or decide to buy! And I like setting the screen or performance to either turbo, performance, windows etc. It works great for everyday use and gaming is amazing in this!!!
!!!
24gb will be enough for creative work ?
Here (Greece) the price of this little monster is 2.000 and above for R7 16ram 1tb and 6700s. I will go for Legion 5i Pro. Great video although.
That's crazy!
I have this laptop and like it, but it is a small screen so be prepared to plug it into an external monitor if you want to play FPS games
It’s actually a 16x10 aspect ratio, no hard feeling or anything, just wanted to point that out,also thanks for the review❤
Maybe im old but how does one stick of ram do dual channel? Is DDR 5 different? Isn't dual channel or more better for gaming?
1 stick of ddr5 runs in dual channel. And yes dual channel increases gaming performance by a good amount
Can you charge using both USB-C Port or is it only the left side that has PD Charge?
Only the left.
Wouldn´t "upgrading" the ram not lead to you losing dual channel? The main reason i hate soldered on memory like a passion as there is no upgrade option available aside of using the same size ram as the soldered on to run dual channel. And ryzen without dual channel ram is like starting a race with your legs broken.
its DDR5, doesn't really matter for it.
unfortunately it breaks on a hinge because of bag plastic-metal adhesion, servicemen said it's a common issue.
Its amazing but it lacks the lan cable for faster internet connection
I was pretty close to buying this at Best Buy but I found an open box M16 with a 12900H, 3070ti, 1TB m.2 and 16GB. Saved about $650 initally but ended up getting another 1TB m.2 and a 32GB stick. It's too bad 8GB of the RAM is onboard only and not upgradeable, but this M16 is nice... really noisy with the fans but nice.
I got the 6700S GPU and no one talks about how hot this laptop could get. I just tested the new The Witcher 3 Next Gen(runing on ultra on 1080p in a second screen) version on the laptop and I only got to play 15 min after the pc shut down the game for overheating.
Dont get it wrong, it is one of the best laptops that you can get; but if you dont wanna deal with the overheating problem while gaming I recommend you getting a 15,6 inch laptop for more disipation of heat and bigger fans. (I talk spanish, srry if you didint understand)
I have the 6800S and I play Witcher 3 Next Gen Ultra+ 1080p on Direct-X 11 with the temps at ~70-75 C. The GPU draws 40-50W of power while the CPU is limited at 15W. The thing with this laptop is that you have to fine tune it for your needs and preferences.
@@zMyX How did you manage to tune the watt usage?? It is my first time with a gaming laptop and I dont know how to do it
@@zMyX could you explain how you did that please?
In 2021 I bought the none led version, i would have bought it, but it was slower hardware and intel. I wanted AMD, with RTX, and the LED one was intel , I'm glad to see they made an AMD ver
It's powerful but it's light. Easy for travel. Weights matter when you travel a lot. I love it.
I bought this one and had issues with the display. The tech support couldn't solve the problem, so I got a brand new one and it had the same display issue.
I don't know if it had something to do with the AMD and Asus software not working perfectly together, but everything I would change the Hz settings on the display, like if I wanted to work or watch videos I'd go in 60hz mode to sa e some battery and plugged in to an AC adapter and playing games I'd go for the 144hz and the display would always go black and not turn back on.
Also while starting the PC the the display would turn black after booting the OS and I had to restart it a couple times. I've also had some gaming issues with Forza Horizon 5. It ru s beautifully but every couple minutes I would get a notification that pauses the game, that my vram is used up. That was annoying.
So the hardware is amazing but the software just isn't. Got a Lenovo Legion after that with an Nvidia Card and I have no issues whatsoever.
@akqj9 I really don't know what caused the issue. But I got a new replacement, it had the same issues so I returned it and got Legion 5 with a 3070 instead. Maybe the AMD GPUs on the laptops cause the problem I don't know, but I'm very happy with my Legion and it's even 2" bigger. Going from 14 to 16.
If you want a keyboard make a custom one for you with your own preference and how you like it
Asus should ditch the barrelplug and add another usb c with usb 4.0. Usb pd 3.1 is able to deliver up to 240 watts. It would only make sense
Great Review, I really enjoyed it, I have a few questions if you don't mind.
1. Is the G14 strong enough for video editing? I am asking as I constantly see videos where channels push Apple, and yes I understand Apple is great but I wouldn;t mind going away from Apple and am wondering if this laptop really can edit well - I am doing not the most advanced videos but will be going to Davinci Resolve soon, so that's why I am asking.
2. The heat, I see this laptop gets hot, really hot, do any of you find the heat to be a real issue?
3. Fan noise, is it so bothersome or is it not as bad as people make it out to be?
Thanks and once again, great video as usual, your channel is great!
yeah I run premiere/DaVinci resolve in it and it works really fast and efficient if you really care about color grading and color stuff
totally recommend it cause the 4K IPS screen is amazing for that
@@amazingak82 Thanks! Do you find the fan noise and heat to be an issue?
@@Grapplezilla No it's pretty quiet unless you play heavy games. The heat is fine if you disable boost or set it to efficient aggressive
@@normalgamer155 Thanks buddy, I appreciate sharing the answer. 🙂
@@amazingak82 I think u should change the CPU boost mode in the registry editor
What about video editing. Cut time down?
How does the keyboard compare to think pad keyboards
How do I get this laptop to cool down?
Not everyone bought this laptop., though I do drool over OLED.
I bought the 2022 Legion 5i Pro. All the bells and whistles for a 1500.
I just cant justify buying anything over 1k while having screen real-estate of 15" or less and to make matters worst, 1080p.
Also the numb pad. yeah, the numb pad is the cherry on top for Legion.
I have the G14 2020 model and still a killer. With 40 GB of ram for rendering and 3d modeling. I love this machine. I wish the chassis is made of aluminum or kinda metal like apple.
How is it for 3d model and rendering? I want to buy 16gb ram rtx4060 ryzen 9 version for same reasons too. I need to use it for at least 6 years. Does it get too hot? Do you recommend it?
@@aisu5969 if you can get the rtx4080 I think will wort it being a mobile unit. I recently sold mine because I needed more capacity in general... I suggest to get the rtx4080 desktop instead of mobile
I added 32 GB Corsair vengeance to mine. Making 40 GB of total ram.
The new 2023 model with 4nm processor & Gpu will be mind blowning
Can I use my bluetooth ear buds with this laptop? No where do I see bluetooth in the specifications which is why I'm asking. I don't understand, please help.
@akqj9 thanks, seems Bluetooth isn’t listed as it’s seemingly expected as apart of standard features. It even worked in Best Buy when I checked I still don’t get it fully but it works. Bluetooth was always listed a decade ago though.
