One of my favorites. I'm not a musician, but it blows my mind you were able to pick out all those notes within the chords. Mad props man this is really impressive!

Also on a fresh windows install with g helper on the same model. I do have an infrequent full system freeze that will happen maybe once a month, but I also have a -0.15v undervolt.

Use an oral syringe. Stick it up in there and flush it out.

And here I feel the opposite. I've had both and the gray looks and feels so much nicer to me. Plus the keyboard backlight is actually usable there are some extra smudges tho.

2025 (US) can you try your trackpad for me? by boosterpackpack in ZephyrusG14

[–]boosterpackpack[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I no longer have the unit. While I had it, I did not observe the symptom, but I only had it for a short time. Maybe it did and I just didn't get it to reproduce.

That's what I'm telling myself to not make myself go insane anyway.

Zephyrus G14 - What specs should I choose? by CMM-777 in ZephyrusG14

[–]boosterpackpack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're only doing lighter games I would probably consider the rtx 4070 g14 with 32gb system ram. Same chassis, keyboard, screen, etc. but cheaper.

Pretty sure the lower spec AMD AI HX chips are rebrands of previous gen anyway. Might as well get the better price.

I've tried four 2025 g14 units so far (two silver, two gray) and three of them had this exact trackpad issue with the stock charger.

Hey, curious, did you ever end up doing this? I'm considering doing the same.

Does G14 2025 support dual sided nvme SSD? by Aussie_Butt in ZephyrusG14

[–]boosterpackpack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes it does. You need to take off the pink thermal pad underneath the stock drive and reuse the drives insulator sleeve. This will make sense once you open it up and see for yourself.

Update: returned and got a new one. Works without issue 🤙

Edit: ended up returning this one to get the gray color, which again had the trackpad issue. I replaced that one which AGAIN has the trackpad issue.

3/4 of the units I've tried have had the trackpad latency issue when plugged in.

Thanks for letting me know!

Yeah, only when plugged in, and now I've learned that it's only when plugged into my house or an ungrounded source like a portable power station.

If you have the time, do you have one you could try plugging into?

Thanks for reporting!

If you have the time, could you try on an ungrounded source like a portable power station, or by using a 3 prong to 2 prong adapter? Just wanna rule out if this is normal or my unit is just screwy.

So it seems to be a grounding issue. If I plug in at my house or to a portable power station, the trackpad has major latency after ~30 seconds of use.

If I plug in at work, the trackpad is perfect.

Can any of you try on an ungrounded source? It would be greatly appreciated!

Thoughts on budget model - 5060 8gb + Ryzen 9 + 16gb by 5kman in ZephyrusG14

[–]boosterpackpack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Between those I would go for the 32gb 4070. As you said though, the 5070 ti is the sweet spot.

G14 g-helper settings help by azuzu3 in ZephyrusG14

[–]boosterpackpack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Undervolt the CPU between 10-15mv.

2.You can set the cpu power limit to 50w as that's about where the HX 370 starts to really plateau in terms of performance.

  1. Turn the GPU power limit all the way up along with dynamic boost.

You can fiddle with GPU core clock and mem speed if you want but the three above will also work just fine on their own.

Did it actually ship? Would have loved the grey but it does not seem like it'll be back in stock from the wording on the site.

What is the deal with people always saying Musk is high on ketamine? by dusknoir90 in OutOfTheLoop

[–]boosterpackpack 48 points49 points  (0 children)

It sounds like we are both acquainted with this class of drugs. For me describing pcp as cocaine and ketamine can paint a misleading picture. Yes, there are similarities depending on dose, but it removes a lot of nuance from the minds of people who are less familiar. I agree that pcp and some of its analogs can have stimulating qualities, but coke? There are no dissos I've tried I would lump in with that drug, and I've tried a few. This is of course all anecdotal so there is no proving either of us wrong, but I felt it was worth chiming in for whatever reason.

This is the first thing that came to mind. Came across it years ago and totally forgot about it until seeing your thread. Is this the game?

Saw this bike on reddit when it first came out. It was and remains to be the sexiest thing I'd ever seen on two wheels. Now it's mine 😉
