Just bought one. It's pretty spectacular. Switched from Lenovo Y740, with 1 hour runtime batter 😄 It's like a night and day.

I’ve had the Ryzen 7 model with SN beginning with L8 for a few days now and I love it. The fingerprint scanner works as well as iPhone finger print scanners. It likes a certain part of my finger and it doesn’t work great if your hands aren’t clean so it’s very standard for current scanners. After a software update I found that my cpu temp and voltage disappeared on armoury crate but there’s an easy fix for that on Reddit. There’s a slight whining noise in the fans even on silent mode which I don’t notice if I have music or a video on but for web browsing it’s kind of annoying in a silent room. I’ll probably end up making a custom profile without the fans for this just for web browsing and light work. I’ve only played the sims 4 on it so far on performance mode and cpu hit 63 C. The keyboard and trackpad are fantastic and I have no issues with the backlighting on my model. This is my first gaming laptop and I’m just getting into the tech world but so far I love my g14 and I’m excited to make some tweaks to make it the perfect laptop for me

@@gamerspoint4256 After over a year and a half it’s still great! For reference I have the 2020 model. Lately I’ve played Red Dead II and Detroit Become Human on it and they both worked really well. I clean the fans out manually every four-ish months. Learning how to do that is honestly a dealbreaker for owning the G14 because the fans run all the time and can pull in a lot of dust. I also definitely recommend disabling turbo to keep the temps down as it can get very hot. By doing that and cleaning out my fans I never hit above 80c on my most intensive games. I’d also recommend propping it up a bit if you’re worried about the heat to help the airflow which is usually what I do if I’m gaming in the summer. My keyboard and trackpad still work perfectly and only a tiny bit of the coating has flaked off where I bumped it against something. I play most of my titles off an external SSD to save space and I haven’t had any issues there. I’ve also done uni work and some light coding on it and it’s been great for both of those. The only headaches I’ve run into are software problems but that isn’t G14 exclusive at all-from what I’ve heard it’s an ASUS problem.

For any of you on the fence about buying this. Just do it! I’m retired and have been around computers all my life and this is one of the few items that made me feel like I did when something came out that rocked my world.

when you unplug the laptop, it automatically switches to performance mode in windows power setting. Changing it to battery saving should solve the whole switching to dedicated graphics thing, instead of rebooting the laptop

I found disabling the Turbo Mode has helped a lot to prevent unnecessary fan spin up. As for dual channel performance, the first 16G will benefit from dual channel performance and that above 16G will not.

I'm interested to know about your ram upgrade. Is it running dual channel up to 16 GB or give up dual channel entirely?

In the Armory crate software, If you go in to "System" under the "device" tab and then click on "GPU Power Saving" you will see a button labelled "Stop All". Click it and it will end all processes on the discrete GPU. Hope this helps! EDIT: The G14 has to be on battery to be able to do this. Not sure why that would need to be a requirement but hey. I guess you don't really need to turn off a discrete GPU when you're on AC power anyway.

@AndrewThrasher1987

3 жыл бұрын

The keyboard backlighting is pretty bad. The issue is that the silver keys reflect light from the screen, which often ends up being very close in color to the backlighting. If there's a saving grace to this design flaw, it's that the reflectiveness of the silver keys actually makes them very easy to see with the backlighting disabled. I use it in dimly lit situations with the backlighting off and haven't had too much issue. In short, the backlighting sucks, but I don't think it's a dealbreaker.

So when you upgraded the memory it wasn't strictly single-channel. It's called "flex mode" I think, but basically you have 16GB in dual channel with the final 8GB in single channel. What that effectively means is those first 16GB are higher bandwidth and lower latency then the latter 8GB
