I do occasional video editing, a lot of adobe lightroom, and I did most of my computer science degree on one. I also have an Asus ROG G14 gaming laptop with a 3060 in it, which is more capable than the macbook, but for day to day stuff it feels like junk to use in comparison.

Asus' premium laptop offerings are so disjointed. The Zephyrus G14 is prime candidate for Strix Halo. Didn't get it. The TUF A14 does get it, but is LCD only. You also need to pay for the 12-core version even if you don't need it because they're "evaluating" the 388. Then we have this thing. Fully u

Liquid metal was a bad idea by ASUS and frankly more of marketing stunt. Perhaps even planned obsolescence. After swapping LM for PTM7950, my G14 doesn't behave chaotic as it did all the time before. I saw some spots on the die, I think it was the CPU.

As much as its nice to see it competing with low powered 4050. The 4050 and even full powered 5050 and 5060 laptops are significantly cheaper than the B390 laptops. You can get 5070 to 5070 ti laptops for the price of of laptops using the b390 On Best Buy Dells XPS 14 is 2249 with the X9 388H with 3

Yup. Got a G14 ASUS laptop about 6 years ago. Got constant blue screens. There were many, many threads on r/ZephyrusG14 about it. Turns out they fucked up how the dynamic processor adjustment works. Had to modify power management in Windows and explicitly disable processor performance boost mode, or

Ai generated TLDR, after handwriting that entire post I didn’t have it left in me to summarize it as well, hopefully this gets the point across Wanted a portable gaming device to complement a high-end 5090 desktop, mainly for travel and gaming around the house Needed AAA + online games, good perform

If you don't know, there's a goated charger setup for this device. It's the SlimQ 150W charger https://slimq.life/products/150w-usb-c-gan-charger-for-universal with the SlimQ G14 cable connector https://slimq.life/products/asus-mini-port-rog-zephyrus-g14-g16-2024 With this, you have a tiny charger t

If you are lame and don't wanna read the whole thing. An employee brought us the Zephyrus G14 on accident instead of the Asus TUF F16. It turned out to be way better for me, so I ended up buying it, good laptop 9.9 out of 10. Update: The Asus TUF 16 model was a 5060 with 32gb, It would not have been

As a former G14 user and a current Legion user, bro what are you going to buy other than G14? Like seriously. HP? Acer? MSI? Razer? Gigabyte? Alienware? In the 14inch laptop market, G14 has literally no competition at all. Asus mostly offers the best laptops for rather more reasonable prices compare
