I own this laptop and I have to be honest, that level of fan noise can only be expected when running in performance or unlimited mode. From my experience, you rarely even have to turn that on and can have a still relatively cool experience playing games at about 60-70 degrees on the CPU and 80 degrees on the laptop with only a couple of FPS difference between the modes. Perfectely acceptable imo. If you can, maybe try it again but switch it to normal standard mode.

Did he turn on the Mux switch? I have the same laptop but I have a lot more fps than he does at for instance re4 remake with the same settings. Hell, I even have more fps in Alan Wake 2 than what he had in RE4 remake. With high settings, that is why I'm asking.

@TechGuyBeau 6 ай бұрын
the thinkbook has a really nice IPS panel, but its an ips panel. so for those who prefer oled the ASUS is better, for those who want a IPS the thinkbook is better. that is preference. id say the asus is better. in all ways, the thinkbook performs much better, and runs significantly cooler. you can check out my review of the specific model and check benchmarks including gaming. the thinkbook has a better keyboard (although both are quite nice) a better glass trackpad, all metal chasis, really the thinkbook is a significantly better laptop, what the ASUS has is the advantages of a truly superb screen. otherwise its not able to compete. in the end it depends what you are looking for.

(0:40) The K6604 has a much better cooling system than the K6602. Actually, these are two different notebooks with different chassis. The K6602 cooling system is a joke for such powerful hardware. I have an older model with the same chassis - ASUS Vivobook Pro 14 OLED, 5800H, and no discrete GPU and I love it. I think this chassis is not suitable for discrete GPUs. I'm considering getting K6604 or ThinkBook 16p G4. The K6604 has an incredible OLED screen and better better-looking keyboard (as for me), but the ThinkBook has better overall quality and two m.2 slots.

I bought mine to edit photos in lightroom and photoshop and I always use standard mode and there is no fan noise whatsoever. Obviously if I change to high-performance the noise is very noticeable. I'm very happy because in lightroom, the denoise functionality would take me 20-30 minutes on my older PC and now it's just 5 seconds on a 62mpixel image with 120mb. The image quality in unmatchable but the screen is reflective but not a deal breaker. The keyboard, I would have preferred they didn't had the num pad because it would make the keyboard bigger and anyway, who uses the num pad? Overal, im satisfied with the laptop.

so my 2024 g14 with 4060 is getting 10025 in timespy. When you ran Timespy on this, was it at "turbo" with everything routed to the dedicated GPU? is that even possible to set? this is on sale for $1200 right now so it's tempting. Also microcenter has the 4070 variant but with IPS 240hz screen for $1250. I'm going back and forth on the new G16 vs giving this a chance because I'm ready to move on from 14". edit - notebookcheck got over 10k on their 4060. Maybe they spec it different in Europe though

@TechGuyBeau Ай бұрын
@@olgamorozova3587 Well…. i3, i5, i7 and i9 mean basically nothing. Here is why Every year Intel releases a generation. And then several processors in that generation. For example 13100 i3 13400 i5 13700 i7 13900 i9 But that’s just 13th Gen. what about a 10th generation i9 versus a brand new 13th gen i5? Well. The new i5 OBLITERATES the 10th gen i9. 13600 is a much superior cpu to a 10900. So generations matter much much much more than the “i” in front of the CPU. - Now… what about inside one single generation? i5 13500h vs i9 13900h? Well the 13900h has more raw power sure, but it also runs much much hotter, and consumes more battery. So a thin laptop with a 13900h (vivobook) will not be able too cool a 13900h. Whereas the 13500h will cool properly. As a result they may actually perform almost the same. When I CPU gets hot its performance goes down dramatically. Just putting the “biggest” CPU in to a laptop is actually often a really bad idea. This is why AMD laptops are preferred by me over Intel: they run cooler (aka better) and have superior battery life.

@@TechGuyBeau What a great and detailed response! Thank you so much for explaining. I've been watching lots of reviews to try to find a good laptop for photo editing in LR and Photoshop, potentially some light video editing and general use, but whatever I consider has plenty of downsides. It's been challenging to find a 16/32gb RAM, 1T memory with a powerful processor and good display/color accuracy, 14/15/16 inch, with my budget (1000$ or 1500$ max). (And a full size SD slot would be a cherry on top). I was considering the Asus Zenbook and Dell XPS 15 but not in love with them. So many people are praising Mac, that I'm now looking into a refurbished 15 inch MacBook Air, 16gb RAM, 1tb SSD, M2 of 2023 which costs around 1500. I would prefer Windows since I never used a Mac, but so far no luck in finding my dream laptop. If you have any recommendations I would love to hear about it.
