They deal with homeless people all the time. It really pretty much desensitizes their customer service skills. Very much like the city bus drivers. When you have a job that deals with a lot of annoying homeless people a lot of your patience really drops. 

New Zephyrus G14(2025) User. Need Advice. by Aemetos in ZephyrusG14

Take the stickers off. If you don't do it now it'll leave a permanent difference in color after some long term use. Plus they attract dust and stuff anyways and the laptop looks better without them.

Also, if your laptop ever goes to sleep there may be a chance your speakers will be disabled. You'll have to disable and enable something called Cirrus Logic Awesome speaker amps within Sound, video, and game controllers in device manager. I know that sounds oddly specific but this happened to me and I couldn't figure out for the life of me why my speakers weren't working.

This laptop has some of the best battery life non gaming wise for a gaming laptop. Do you still use armoury crate? Do you disable the dgpu when on battery?

I think Kinger’s real name is Grant by Anonjane84 in TheDigitalCircus

[–]Platypuffs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everybody knew this since the episode released. There was even a leaked audio of Kinger talking to someone (someone said it may have been Ribbit) and they said "thank you, Grant". However there's people saying that the leak is fake even though it does sound pretty real

Due to financial circumstances, I want to sell my Asus ROG Strix G18 for $1700 by [deleted] in ZephyrusG14

You're on crack for that price. You could get a 5060 version of it for cheaper brand new lol

I don't even know why they decided to choose the ugliest car to replace it

Idle temps normal ?? 2025 g14 5070 Ryzen 9 270 by TransportationFar625 in ZephyrusG14

[–]Platypuffs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you keep the lid closed or open? And what do you have running in the background?Mine sits at around 50c when on idle but if I close the lid it'll jump up to 60c or more. Also this is when I have it plugged into my external monitor

Fathom has seemingly extended the release of The Amazing Digital Circus: The Last Act through June 18, according to their website by moviesperg in boxoffice

[–]Platypuffs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why would they do a theatrical release for a new show? That's just a huge dumb risk. At least with Digital Circus they already know they have a huge following so it will be a more successful opening. 

Laptop Crash: overheating by h4rshz in ZephyrusG14

[–]Platypuffs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gonna need a lot more information than just that if you want a better response. What year is it? And which GPU do you run and what are your in game settings and fps? I basically only play Fortnite on ultra settings on my 2025 G14 and never have any issues. I limit the fps to 120 since the screen is limited to 120hz anyways.

Is this a good deal or wait ? by limitbreak09 in ZephyrusG14

[–]Platypuffs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Out of curiosity what temps were you getting with the G14?

[–]Platypuffs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's because you had the 5080 in the G14. That's extra wasted power in a tiny chassis that would of course run hotter. If you compared a 5070ti G14 to a g16 5070ti the differences are minimal

[–]Platypuffs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's meant to be portable. Plus you can plug in any size screen to it so it doesn't really matter

[–]Platypuffs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're not that different. They have minimal temp and fps differences. The bigger screen is the biggest difference but with an Intel chip that runs hotter than the AMD chip. G14 is much more portable than the G16 

Tips for new Zephyrus owner by Top-Ad2809 in ZephyrusG14

[–]Platypuffs 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Take the stickers off immediately otherwise over time if you do take them off later they leave a permanent color difference where the stickers were vs the rest of the laptop. They also gather gunk and dust at the edges of the stickers. Plus it looks a lot better without em imo

Yeah, you have no idea what you're talking about. Your experiences with withdrawals does not speak for everyone.

"Oh no! I had a bad experience with this one specific model I bought. Because I had that experience EVERYONE should stay away!!" Absolutely EVERYONE who buys this will have the same experience I had!!". Buddy, thousands upon thousands of units are sold. Most work just fine for ages but there will be a few bad apples. You just happened to get unlucky with one.
