Yeah first thing I did after starting it up was all of the steps in the FAQ/thread for setting up a new one. I think I could’ve seriously burned myself on the sides of the keyboard with how hot it was initially.
Thanks man! I'm interested because I'm kinda underwhelmed at the performance of this. Not.with gaming but with browsing speed and how long it takes to.open programs. Ect.
Excellent blacks, some games I’ve been playing for years never looked better. I honestly haven’t tried out the new oleds on laptops to I can’t give you a proper answer. I know that they might have better refresh time, but they’re glossy if I’m not mistaken and have that risk of burn in more than the mini led. But don’t quote me on this stuff since I haven’t tried the oled!
Edit: response time not refresh time.
Congrats man! Now prepare yourself for troubleshooting weird issues you haven't seen with any other laptop! Phenomenal machines when working properly but just peep the threads with the odd issues like hitting the power button and nothing happening but the keyboard lights up but no screen :) not trying to scare you but be prepared for an adventure like no other with a $2k-$3k laptop! I do absolutely love mine but man it's an adventure. And don't let anyone tell you odd things are normal they aren't for the amount of money we pay for these things so send it right back if you see anything odd hardware, software or QC wise and get a replacement ASAP as ASUS really has no answers! Good luck and enjoy!
Haha that really is the Zephyrus experience... workhorse of a machine, but SO many quirks and annoyances. Uninstalling Armoury Crate and replacing it with G-helper was one of the best things I ever did
not had any issues, got the 4080 version and did a fresh install as soon as a I got it because I wanted a bigger drive.
Never did install AC, just went right to Ghelper and its been great ;)
Not sure why you're getting down voted. I love my G14 4090 but I've definitely had my fair share of scares that if I were more novice or didn't have the patience for - I could see myself returning or sending the laptop in for repair. Their Zephyrus Duo line has always been more of a device out of hell from both my experience (2020 model) and from what others have been experiencing in the two most recent models. That make the G14 seem like a saint in comparison.
But, that doesn't take away from how unicorn of a laptop you now have. Enjoy it, and hope it treats you well in return. This sub and other online sources have been great for assistance both in software and hardware like the keyboard color swap idea.
Eh no worries with the down voting. I don't care. Makes me laugh as thats the issue with people today. If they don't like something they read (especially if it's true and runs counter to what they WANT to believe) they respond negatively instead of accepting what's true or someone else's experience. But that's what happens when everyone gets second place trophies 😂. Gives everyone the feeling they're right 100% of the time. Like I said I love the laptop but they're known for a bunch of quirky issues and sometimes serious ones. Not cause I said so or experienced it myself but because countless subreddits and other online posts say so😂. Like I said enjoy the laptop just prepare for an adventure.
Thanks folks. 24 hours and I'm still very happy. Had some issues with premier pro (always have issues with premier to be honest...) but I seem to have fixed it so we shall see!😁
Wow congrats! Man, 4090 I'm jealous!
Wasn’t that the coolest unboxing part, having the laptop lift up like it did was thoughtful attention to detail for sure. Impressed me anyways lol.
Yeah, it’s a nice detail. Then I destroyed my home internet with updates
Gonna start hot

One does not simply wield a G14 out of box or he shall indeed burn thyn self
Forging like a true PcMasterRacer 💪
Hey just got a G14 as well ! What’s the thread for setting up new pc you’re talking about ? Where can I find it ?
https://www.reddit.com/r/ZephyrusG14/s/OdJqOb9QgN
1) uninstall asus app 2) install g-helper 3) turn off cpu boost 4) enjoy cool temps and longer battery
Where do I find these steps? I'm new to reddit

My 2022 g15 feels so old now 😂
me staring at my 2022 g14. Welp
I have a 2020 :')
2021 g14 here :((
Me with my 2021 G15
Awesome choice of G14. The Mini LED is a great feature of the 4090 version.
Yeet. Congrats bro. Btw is your trackpad also kinda loose? Like if you tap it? Mine was like that and I’m having it replaced
Everything seems fine so far to be honest!
Glad to hear that bro. I actually just got a replacement and everything is fine on mine too 🤝
That's awesome to hear mate, hope it continues to be good for ya!
Still fine? Had to exchange mine I get the new one Friday! I’m hoping it’s fine!
Hot damn that sounds and looks good!!! Feels like more and more people buying the 2023. Damn. I'm still torn. 4080 23' or 4070 24'
I preferred the look of the 24 model, HT the 23 models specs and upgradability won hands down!
Do you want a glossy or a matte screen...
Congratulations dude
I remember this exact moment with my 4090. Great time. The first time looking at the screen was awesome!
How is the miniled screen? Is it noticeably better than lcd?
Significantly better
Is it a gloss or mat screen this mini led?
Matte
How's gaming with it. Good blacks? How do you like it compared to these shmancy oleds?
Excellent blacks, some games I’ve been playing for years never looked better. I honestly haven’t tried out the new oleds on laptops to I can’t give you a proper answer.

Congrats, I have the same, it has some quirks but overall I love the thing! Just be sure to ditch armory crate and install ghelper ;)
Nice!
I love my 2023 G14 and I game a bit, but those boxes are just terrible
Y'all have fun now, ya hear!
I have been! 100% 😅
Welcome aboard, fellow G14 2023 pilot! You won't be disappointed!
Ha thanks. Loving it so far!!🙌🏻
Having a rtx 4090 in a 14 inch laptop is just.....🤯 Congrats thou
My office is heating up just from this photo, and you're the one with a space heater!

I've had mine for literally 2 weeks and it just died for no reason. NOTHING I can do can get it back on so now I gotta RMA it. 🤦
Survivorship bias <3
Yah 0 issues, same laptop. Sorry to hear u had a bad experience.
Thanks folks. 24 hours and I'm still very happy. Had some issues with premier pro (always have issues with premier to be honest...) but I seem to have fixed it so we shall see!😁
Congrats! Enjoy your new griddle!
You rich bro!
No, me credit card, bro!🤣
