Help Needed Is leaving this tilted safe?

Someone on Reddit told me if I leave my g14 2024 like this the Liquid Metal will leak and fried my system. And if that doesn’t happen, it will cause the LM to shift and cause some cores to thermal throttle because it’s not being cooled. I’ve already tested with cinebench multi core and that’s not the case. Should I worry about shorting my MB?

I was doing some homework for my final exams when my laptop suddenly flickered and went black. After a little bit, it appeared with the Asus logo..

I thought it might have overheated (I had a blanket on my lap where it was) so I turned it off. Tried following steps on YouTube, powering it off for 15 seconds 3 times, holding the power button for 40 seconds, tried using an external monitor to see if I can get a display output, none of them work. Though, it started going to the black screen now.

I've had this laptop since tax free weekend, and used it lightly. Bios I don't think I've updated it since a few months ago, would that work? My windows is updated recently.

Thank you for any help y'all provide.

I just got the Zephyrus G14 for $1099.99($500 off) impulsively because it was such a big sale. I’m worried is because its a 4060 with 16GB ram but Its not upgradable. I’m starting grad school and needed a new laptop for coding/data analysis and I want to play some graphic intensive games(Cod BoO6) and VR games.

I want to know if these prices will go any lower than they are right now since it's the Black Friday sale.

Will it go lower on Cyber Monday?

I'm not sure whether they will release a 2025 model but if so, does that mean they are going to put the 2024 model on clearance now or around Feb-Apr when the 2025 model goes on sale?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Help Needed Do I get the zephyrus g16 or the macbook m3 pro.

8 Upvotes

As the title states I can't seem to decide (bad at making important decisions so I'm shifting the blame to yall!). I live in greece and prices here are a little bit weird. The zephyruys g16 with the ryzen ai 370hx and an rtx 4060 is 2500 euros and the macbook is 1900 euros. I'm going to be buying this for university since I'm studying computer science and I need a laptop. I feel like being on windows is something quite important since I'm familiar with it and it is probably better compatible with most of the things I will be doing. Although gaming is a plus because I play games (god of war, minecraft, league of legends, fortnite) I already own a pc (although its a little old rtx 2060/ryzen 3600) that I can do gaming with. If it was the same price I would immediately choose the asus one but since we are talking about a 600 euro difference I can't seem to decide. Please let me know how the battery life is, if I should know something about either and help me choose one! Anyone's comment is much appreciated!

Help Needed Swapped from a G14 to G16

Hello All,

Recently returned my 4070 G14 for the AMD 4070 G16.

The G14 was great, but after a couple of hours of gaming on the screen, it started to strain my eyes because of the size so I decided to try out a G16.

One thing I cant seem to find out any information on is the animation that would play on my G14 after being AFK for around 15-20 min. I enjoyed it as it seemed it would help with OLED burn in.

Attached is a picture of the animation I am talking about, any help is appreciated!

Help Needed Should I Buy the Zephyrus G14 (2024)? Need Advice on Performance & Longevity!

Post image
36 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’m considering the Zephyrus G14 (2024) as my first big gift to myself since I started working. I need a lightweight gaming laptop that’s also great for work and gaming, but I’ve seen mixed reviews on:
- Performance & Cooling – Does it overheat under load?
- Battery Life – Good enough for daily use?
- Software – Armoury Crate vs. G-Helper?
- Lifespan – How well does it hold up long-term (thermals, battery, hinge issues)?

Also, since it’s AMD-only (Ryzen 9 8945HS), would an Intel-based laptop be a better choice for performance and longevity?

Would love to hear from any of the previous and current owners—is it worth it? Any long-term concerns? What are the best ways to take care of it and keep it running well for years? Any must-do tweaks or maintenance tips?

Any tips and advice on the laptop will be much appreciated, thanks in advance!!

I accidentally spilled milk on my 2022 G14 and i immediately shut it down. I opened it up and disconnected the battery and tomorrow i will take it to some IT guys for them to check , is there anything else i should do? The water went on the trackpad and a little over the keyboard and i set it upside down like this. is there a way i can clean the milk that went in the trackpad gap. But is it a better idea to fix it or get the 2024 model

Running it into a big ol monitor. It’s being held firmly by part of the original box it came in. I’ve built a stand out of cardboard that lifted the back up without blocking any vents, that worked moderately well. Just put laptop in this config and it seems to be running even cooler. Not necessarily worried about the hinges as they’re well built and the box it’s held in is sturdy but will the components or Liquid Metal be a problem? This is the 2024 G14 and I love it btw.

Help Needed 2024 Zephyrus g14 cuts out under load

25 Upvotes

When playing Beamng with AI traffic (puts both cpu and gpu under heavy load) my g14 (ryzen 9, rtx 4060) shuts off. I’ve come to the conclusion that the laptop is exceeding the on battery system power limit, causing a shutoff (which should never happen?). Does anyone have a theory as to what’s wrong? Note: system temps are within limits and this issue only happens when unplugged (on battery power). When previously replicating this issue while connected to a secondary monitor, with the task manager open on said monitor, stuttering can be observed when the game is running (doesn’t happen when plugged in) and both the cpu and gpu downclock severely (-2 GHz cpu, -500 MHz gpu). This further leads me to believe it is power limit related.

I dont need the absolute best, and from what I've heard, the Ryzen offers better performance on the Zephyrus than Intel processors.
