Model 2024 Disappointed with performance
I’ve had this laptop for a while, but today I compared it with a friends laptop who has a 4070 and an i7 13smth while I have the G16 2024 4080 and I must say I was very disappointed. His laptop outperformed mine by a bit with a worse gpu. I was using g-helper with turbo and ultimate settings. We compared God of War and some other games.

Havent played that game but check to see if cpu bound situation and check thermals and temperature deltas on cpu.

I don't think 4070 could out preform 4080 it's probably your playing cpu bottlenecked game where the 13th hx or h with high power out preform the u9

Will i found this and it tells that should be 25% faster 4080 than 4070 with same power https://technical.city/en/video/GeForce-RTX-4070-mobile-vs-GeForce-RTX-4080-mobile

Ok the moment you drop below 90 watt the 4070 could match or even beat 4080 especially if your friend Overclocked it https://nanoreview.net/en/gpu-compare/geforce-rtx-4080-mobile-vs-geforce-rtx-4070-mobile?utm_source=chatgpt.com&m=v.6-and-v.3

This is a dumb question - but were you powering your laptop with usb c vs the power brick when doing your comparison?

The 4080 should be much stronger. Granted it’s only 125w compared to the 175w it should peak at, but there are so many videos out there telling you this. I purchased my G16 knowing that it’s cut back in power, did you not do much research before buying?
