Excelent information, you got a new sub!

Do a gaming video where you test gaming on silent or efficiency modes while playing popular titles like fortnite Gta rd2 … thx for the video great job clarifying the vapor chamber pros

thanks for the comparison - it was super informative. I am currently looking at the new lenovo yoga pro 9i and was wondering whether in your opinion it would be as suitable for gaming as the 4070 g14 or whether I should reconsider? Keep up the good work!

I ordered the 4080 at Best Buy, 2699$, and I am looking forward to it. I couldn't order the 4070 since it only had 16 gigs of ram and no Vapor Chamber. This seems to be the perfect blend of performance, efficiency, and portability. I agree you tubers who are primarily Apple users think this should run the same as their MacBook. I think these are more flexible as it can do what a Mac does as well as game 🎮.

Bro youve always given some of the best reviews out there

How much do you like the Alienware M16 compared to the G16 Asus? Did you try the X16 as well?

For those who are struggling with loud fan during idle, make sure you've unistalled Asus and Windows bloatware. Then, uninstall Armoury Crate and install G Helper. In G Helper, you can control the fan during Silent mode. Use that to change your fan profile. If temp still rise during Silent still, try to undervolt between -5 to -15.

G14 4070 32gb here. Maybe i got lucky, but when on battery for low intensity tasks, i have mine on silent mode, and it stays very cool (never passed 40C). Mind you, it got to 40C fans completely off after about 2 hrs of consistent use while on my bed (meaning no ventilation space under). I previously purchased and returned the 2023 model g14 due to MASSIVE overheating while doing absolutely nothing. Again, I'm not sure if i got lucky, but my 2024 g14 has been excellent in every single regard so far.

One quick question: I’d like to get either the g14 or the g16 (both with the 4070, 32GB RAM). I have to travel quite a bit, but I’d prefer the bigger screen for work. Is the g16 portable or should I just get the g14 for my use case?

I think the biggest complaint about fans is not while gaming, but rather most people are saying that it's not even quiet on idle or light loads, which many other performance laptops, including gaming laptops, are able to achieve. Did you get a lucky unit that was quiet on non-intensive tasks?

Hey was wondering what is the brand of the yellow cable that u used? Looks sick!

what’s the comparison between this laptop and let’s say the ROG Strix G16 240hz i9 4070?

Great video mate! I got the rtx 4080 variant, and i got a question for you. When I play a high demanding game like baldurs gate 3 or dragons dogma 2, I cannot put the laptop on my lap because it BURNS really bad, more rhan other gaming laptops i used to own.. Did you encounter same thing with ur model? Also im amazed how u can game when on battery… how the gpu and cpu giving minimal performance loss. Is there a way to make the laptop make less heat when pluged in to the charger ?

What would the battery life be like for light to medium web browsing and office work?

You are amazing

Also gaming laptops like you said get loud of course but thats only when gaming during normal use they dont make any type of loud or annoying sound even back to the older gaming laptops like my y700 it never was loud during normal use just large. Macbook tried to do the same exact task with in 2 minutes it would cut off or kill itself or seriously burn you trying to do any thing a gaming laptop could do. I prefer louder fans while gaming vs a laptop that burning itself from the inside out that i spent 4k on 1tb with lol

With much power comes much responsibility

i curious how rog m16 would hold up in next year, the 2023 ver already fixed the thermal throttling significantly. It just needs a vapor chamber and efficient cpu

can this g16 disable the discreet graphic card so as to have the battery last longer?

Hi, I'm from Indonesia, good video... I have a question, does that mean the g16 with 16 gigs isn't worth buying at all? Like for usage in the next 2-3 years?

What sad is the MSI Stealth 18 has a 4090 at 150w. Yes its bigger but is in the same ballpark as slim. Cmon Asus why not that as a compromise?

If money is no cost would you go with this or the blade 16 4090 Oled? I currently have a blade 14 and love their design but I’m torn on which one to get…

I bought the 4090 variant and had to return it, unfortunately It's not a terrible product by any means, it's just it's meant for a specific group of people who want a laptop to do some productivity, and then do light gaming at the end of the day It's not meant for hardcore gaming sessions like running Cyberpunk 2077 on Path Tracing or playing MW3 MP for long game sessions because the fans and heat do turn up noticeably, even with a laptop cooler The OLED screen is absolutely gorgeous, there's no denying that, and it's buttery smooth. Again, for gaming, don't expect to do long gaming sessions and NOT hear the fan.

Pls make a review of the yoga pro 9i with 185h and rtx 4070❤

i really dont know whether to choose this or the G14, it would be at the 4070 spec i just dont know which is better

Which is better, this or the Lenovo Legion equivalent?

While it can definitely be viewed as upsetting that Asus left a lot of watts on the table with the 4090 when compared to other 4090 laptops like the Razer Blade & MSI Titan, it could also be seen with the contrasting positive that a similar build of the Razer Blade is 25% more expensive. I would also hope that stressing the 4090 less means greater longevity of the hardware as well; so you'd have a top-spec laptop for the next year+ and a very functional laptop when it gets longer in the tooth 4+ years from now. Most Razers I've encountered have a significantly shorter lifespans when they are used and abused as a daily driver & gamer: I don't mean that as a knock on Razers at all, but rather a statement of when you run something at redline constantly it will obviously break down sooner. Plus the G16 just looks beautiful as well.

I lov ethis laptop. I have the 4090, but I must admit, the laptop gets hot as sh*t when the 4090 is going. Battery life is great when on Optimus or integrated GPU mode.

I've always thought it's so silly how people complain about how loud a PC/laptop is. My boy. In Winter of 2016 I was using the dust-insulated jet engine of an Xbox 360 to heat my house when we were too poor to afford a working AC. xD And these days? We're always wearing noise cancelling headphones anyways? You're never going to hear it anyways?? My only thing is fearing whether it's actually being cooled or not. So I got myself one of those external intake fans. Improves GPU temps by like, 10-degrees on my current laptop. I'm upgrading from a GTX1050 that someone had given to me for free. It just can't run anything modern.. and the mousepad is busted. And I wanna have a laptop with better specs than my PC - just because laptops don't perform as well. My PC has a 3070 with an i7-17700K CPU? And I'm gonna grab the G16 4070 version used on Amazon for $1500. :3 I'll also be getting a cheap Windows Tablet, so I can have a dual monitor setup on the go! Coding Major & someone that likes to game on the road.

Should I get the asus g16 with 4070 , or the transcend 14 with 4060, or the hp spectre 16 worth 32gb ram and 4050? I'll mainly watch videos and sometimes maybe play warzone and fortnite. And maybe other games but mostly cod and fortnite. Which one should I get?

Great review!! What is this sniper game? Seems to be the best combination between performance and noise....Thx!

My 4070 variant crapped out already :\

I have the 4070 variant, i9 985h. It gets so fucking hot I could probably cook eggs in the surface below the screen. Welp, I just accepted it and moved on. I don't know how long does this laptop will last. Unacceptable.

So base on you, reviewers should not mention and comparing Noise lvl, heat, etc with other laptops just because is normal to hear max out fan noise? That's ridiculous, you reviewers should always push companies to truly cut edges all the times and not just accept it. The only reason I don't get a gaming laptop is because of the noise, most of us hate fan noise!

Does the rubber foot nearest to the bottom vents creak for you when pressed? I just got this same laptop and it's been bothering me.

I cannot agree with your assessment of the screen wobble. I find it to be very noticeable and, compared to the 2024 Razer Blade 16, the G16's build quality is significantly worse. It feels like I only have to look at the G16 and the screen wobbles. This effect is amplified when using the G16 on an arm, which is a realistic scenario for me. Additionally, my trackpad has a significant amount of rattling. I can understand your observations about the GPU's performance in Cyberpunk, but not the CPU's! My Intel Core 9 Ultra underperforms. You also show 35W, but my CPU thermal throttles and is constantly above 94°C at that wattage, no matter what I do. I have tried everything. Furthermore, I would not consider 5000 RPM fans that are thin to be quiet at all. I find them to be painfully loud. The 2024 Razer Blade 16 with RTX 4090 is significantly quieter, as you know yourself. Additionally, the tonality of the fans in the 2024 G16 is worse than in the 2024 Razer Blade. In my opinion, the 2024 ASUS ROG Zephyrus G16 is not at all mature. You can't cheat physics. It's too thin. This thinness has also given ASUS an excuse to no longer include more than 32GB of RAM. Additionally, ASUS laptops come with a lot of bloatware. Armoury Crate looks hideous and is overloaded. Only GHelper can help. There are so many ASUS processes running in the background that they cause micro-interrupts. Overall, the 2024 ASUS ROG Zephyrus G16 is a flawed and disappointing laptop. Also I saw a girl in the ASUS discord complaining about the exact same thing. She just got mocked and clowned at. Really nice community, ASUS. But it looks like I am not the only one. I never ever had a laptop this bad.

15:00 makes no sense. how is the 4080 in the g14 performing worse than the 4070 in the g16?

Why no Ram Upgrade :(

The smack book is limited unfortunately. It's a great computer 🖥️ < is that a computer?

Do they take 15% from you when you return them?

I really wanted to love the G16 4090 (2024) but unfortunately the GPU is not even close to the e.g. Razer Blade 16 OLED with 4090 GPU. The Razer really shows how important the wattage on the GPU is. They should have gone with at least 130-140W. If you have the choice I would go with the Razer. Sidenote: The speakers on the G16 are just incredible good. What I have seen the Razer can push maximum wattage for combined workloads 205-220W and the G16 only 130 - 140W. This is a very huge differnce and you will notice that when the system is unter load (CPU and GPU)

The slash light is irritating 😞

U think this is a better buy than the rog flow x16?

Can you review Alienware laptops ? thank you!

Is the 4070 silent on idle? Is the 4080 better?

The verdict is still not reached with this super thin 😕 laptop 💻 < a laptop artist rendition?

can you also recommend a cooler for this laptop, that is available in india ❤

Could you review the 2024 vector 16x with i9 14900hx rtx 4080? With the new display? Maybe compare it to the unvaxed 2023 ghetto 144hz display variant?

Does it wibble though?

Complains about the 4070 model being hot and loud compared to the 4090 vapor chamber model, then rants about "other" youtubers complaining that the same laptop is hot and loud 🤣. Can't keep on invoking physics to treat all gaming laptops the same. It sounds very unintelligent. There's more than one way to cool a laptop. It's not a static line of size versus power. A lot goes in the design, and bigger does not mean better, nor louder equals cooler. I'm glad the mainstream reviewers are doing these "amateur" reviews. It popularizes gaming laptops so we have more choice. But most importantly, it pushes gaming laptop manufacturers out of their comfort zone by introducing more scrutiny. For the longest time, they have indulged in bad habits and stagnation. Garbage tier speakers, plastic trackpads, creaky cheap cases, dull lifeless screens, potato cams, poop battery, etc. And people have similarly been justifying these deficiencies for years, because it's a "gaming laptop" and something something physics. Acer is literally releasing 18" behemoth laptops with trash speakers and a thick profile even though 30% of the internal volume is empty space, because all they did was extend their 16" version, the height of laziness and low effort. MSI has a similar track record of wastefulness. There's no good reason a Windows gaming laptop shouldn't run like a MacBook outside of gaming. If Apple ever becomes serious with gaming compatibility using their ARM based SoCs, the whole gaming laptop market will be threatened. The efficiency of their chips is just so much better in comparison. Sorry we don't need a jet engine to power everything.

Asus really got a lot right with the G16 this year. It would be almost perfect if it had a 140-150 watt rtx 4090. Keep up the detailed reviews.

Since when 60 days is a long term

What about screen wobbling is it problem at all?

I def agree you really have to be careful with alot of reviewers they literally dont know shit and will overhype any laptops they can get their hands on like even a 4060 they will act like its great to play tripple a games on at ultra settings its def alot of genz honestly. Hell they will even try to justify the over priced macbooks. It doesn't stop there either other stuff like earbuds and other tech its the same story too. They test everything on and iphone and act like thats giving earbuds a fair advantage when iphone only supports shitty codec and no high res audio but the best earbuds needs high res if you paying all that money.

hahaah you're actually the real one i've seen from all the youtube

There is a certain blend of bs when considering a 💻 < that's an artist's rendition of a laptop?

Long term review? How about 6 months, that is a realistic long term.

how 2months is a long term review seriously….

The M16 on battery playing games 1 hour tops... :\ Ribbet ribbet 🐸

Do a fresh install of Windows if you buy any ROG laptop and use G Helper, DONT install Armory Crate. I have the 4070 version and have no issues with the noise from the fans
