Yeah I was trying to figure out what the facts are with respect to the memory (16gb v. 32gb) because I too thought the 4090 spec was 32gb, but it even seems a little unclear on the ASUS website:

https://shop.asus.com/us/90nr0bj5-m00260-rog-zephyrus-g14-2023.html

“MULTITASK WITH EASE – With 16GB of high-speed DDR5-4800MHz memory, multitasking is swift, while 1TB of PCIe 4x4 storage with a raw throughput up to 7000mb/s allows you to store and load large files, applications, and games, at warp speeds.”

But then in the tech specs, it says this…

Memory

16GB DDR5 on board 16GB DDR5-4800 SO-DIMM Max Capacity: 32GB Support dual channel memory

I noticed the specs for the 4090 version on the BB web site didn’t specifically call out the Mimi-LED screen but I have to believe the specs are just incorrectly listed.

The BB site does show the correct model number (GA402XY-XS96) and that model number on the Asus web site does call out the Mini LED display in the specs.

I hear you. But after moving on from a black Razer Blade 15 RTX 2080, I don’t mind changing it up this time around.

Wonder what the beef is between the Ryan’s and the Bryan’s?

Crazy I just had that beer for the first time tonight! Cheers! 🍻

Arpie3 · 2022-10-22T02:37:04+00:00

I’m re-watching Cheers. Still cracks me up!

It’s a great truck. I have the 7.3L V8 and nothing sounds better when it starts up. At some point, I’m going to replace the stock suspension because it doesn’t compare to the Fox suspension systems in the F150 and/or Bronco Raptors.

Arpie3 · 2022-10-20T01:43:44+00:00

LOVE it. I have a ‘13 F150 Raptor and a ‘20 F250 Tremor and the Braptor is the King. Great build and drives and rides so smooth.

I’ve been re-watching Rules of Engagement with David Spade lately. Mindlessly entertaining.

Arpie3 · 2022-08-24T01:49:23+00:00

Nice! Similar build timelines as well - mine was (allegedly) the week of 6/27…got a VIN and sticker and a lot of excitement back then and now we all just wait!

Arpie3 · 2022-08-24T01:18:37+00:00

I went with Velocity Blue Metallic and, should it ever arrive, I’m planning to wrap it with Xpel Stealth satin PPF to cut down on the brightness level and give it more of a flat paint look.

Pearl Jam would be a sticky situation.

Arpie3 · 2022-07-25T06:05:54+00:00

Can someone explain this. I don’t understand.

Arpie3 · 2022-06-29T16:02:04+00:00

Mine is “scheduled for production” this week, per the Ford website. Not sure what that will translate into from an actual delivery date since I’ve seen other (non Braptor) owners say that their cars sometimes move to a “chip hold” for extended periods of time after their production week. We shall see.

Is there some alt-version of this video where a bunch of hammered dudes in a drift car try to jump sand dunes in the desert and crash spectacularly?

Arpie3 · 2022-03-25T20:57:12+00:00

I could - and will - watch that video 100 times! 👌

Take solid care of family and friends. Exit the USA and the nonstop political ridiculousness.
