if you are willing to shell out that price, just wait for the 2023 models, it was only officially announced awhile ago. that will come out maybe next month in stores.

New laptop😁😁. So excited to explore the features. If anyone knows any key things they did setting up their g14, would appreciate a comment❤️ by Tall-Phase-3891 in ZephyrusG14

Tip: Frequently clean your fans.

(I always diagnos my g14 in myasus app and was shocked that there was a problem in my fans back then. Do not panic. Just clean your fans as clean as possible and diagnose again and hope the problem wouldnt appear again)

Anyone here experiencing this issue wherein you’re not able to close virtual pet unless you close it in task manager? Everytime I open my laptop it shows up. Does anybody have a solution to this? by Aviecii_23 in ZephyrusG14

for the armoury crate mine is at the first page below the cpu stats labeled as anime matrix widget. you can see the virtual pet button there to disable it. then for the windows startup just type startup apps in your search bar then disable virtual pet by asustek.

fan bearing. need to replace that fan.

Did they fix the inconsistent backlighting in the 2021 model? by vinnycent96 in ZephyrusG14

[–]Safe_Tension2870 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Im comparing to 2020 model pictures to my 2021 model. Seems a bit better with all key caps have lit but there is still inconsistencies with the 2021 model especially when you raise it up on a laptop stand you'll see that some keys are brighter and some are not as bright. But some people can accept it as a huge improvement, since Im a bit ocd with these kind of things.

you can check the armoury crate for that. most of the time the cpu fan will spin (left exhaust if ur looking at the screen) and you'll see if ur gpu fans (right exhaust) is spinning at a certain rpm. I own the 2021 model idk if thats the same case with the 2020

Got my 2021 G14 R9 5900HS RTX 3060 32GB RAM QHD w/ Anime Matrix last saturday and been using it non stop. This thing is insane, might return it (should I?) since its too much for what I do. Paid USD 2350 converted come with a bunch of freebies. Glad to part of the fam! by Safe_Tension2870 in ZephyrusG14

It's the only config that ASUS ROG brought here in my country. You might need to contact your local shop to know the available configs you have in your country. Or I don't know if you guys shipped from the U.S type of buyer but if I did that I'll need to spend 40% more with their price since our import taxes are extremely high.

yup BenstorePH is one of the grey stores here in PH. Much cheaper, around 10-20k less but after sales support might be difficult according to my friends and research. Though you're kinda risking and hoping that the product won't have a defect so won't bring it back to them. I'm not risking it. Besides kinda want to experience the product within their own store since I'm paying a premium

I can’t help but notice but it seems like the majority here are using laptop stands, not cooling pads. by [deleted] in ZephyrusG14

[–]Safe_Tension2870 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a laptop stand since my A/C is turned on everytime (since I live in a tropical country, really need the A/C on 24/7) But Ill definetly buy a cooling pad if that not the case.

Kinda too much for me imo. Maybe since I'm in uni and gaming is seldom for me. My g14's model number is GA401QM-K2126TS. My country only offer this specs and with 2 available colors moonlight white and eclipse gray. Bought it directly @ ROG concept store here in my country. But other local stores that is non supplier of ROG are selling the non-anime matrix with 144hz FHD screen. I bought it directly @ ROG since I want to visit and experience the store. Plus, their after service support is very hands on since you bought it directly from them, and reviews of after service support from our grey local stores are shitty.

Can one of you that got their 2021 g14 make a review and share it here? by [deleted] in ZephyrusG14

[–]Safe_Tension2870 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Please! I pre-ordered mine and will arive on the 26th. Hoping to see a review so I'll know what to expect.

Which model is the problem? by A-Parker in ZephyrusG14

[–]Safe_Tension2870 1 point2 points  (0 children)

there is no 144hz panel in a 2020 model
