ASUS ROG Zephyrus G16 2024 Review (RTX 4090 GU605)

[b.c.b.-]

"I prefer the theme called off." 😂

This is the first review I've seen of the 4090 version in English. You covered everything anyone could ask for. Great review!

I purchased the 4080 version and can confirm it runs just as hot, I ran it side by side playing dragons dogma 2 with the Lenovo legion 7i 2024 both in performance mode and can confirm that the 4070 on the legion runs on par with the 4080 on the zephyrs with the legion surface temps on the hinge part back and rear sides are 15 to 20 c cooler. Returning the zephyrs and staying with the legion 7i 2024

Great review wish you included the time spy score so we can use the value against other 4090 laptops and truly see how gimped the 115W is. Also, for next time have the gaming benchmarks be alongside other laptops with similar specs to make better judgements on which laptop is more optimized.

Did you find this laptop had excessive screen wobble? I've seen a few videos where it looks like it's moving quite a bit when reviewers put their hands on the surface it's on

[poetic.voyage]

In a review like this you really need to include the 3DMark Timespy score so we can compare to other laptops.

Does the laptop support double sided SSDs or is it single sided only?

From a fellow saffa and Asus fanboy, well done on the review. A few areas for improvement as noted in the comments below but still, well done.

[jotacekm]

is it possible to undervolt this processor?

After animMe Matrix, the line lighting on the back cover has become ridiculous.

[Gunner.TV.]

Can you run a TimeSpy and tell me what score you get please?

[peanutxxd]

If I use the Laptop keyboard while I game, will I feel my fingers burning or relatively cool?

2nd review of this new device i've seen that confirms it runs too hot.

32GB and 4090 is not avaible anywhere to pre order yet, just basic trim with 8GB and 16GB 4060-4070...

On mine, I lowered the wattage on the CPU and OC the processor/ram of the GPU via the Asus tool and so far so good.... the CPU fan is the loudest and the GPU seems to run pretty cool (relatively speaking).

[WizZarDzrrrr]

Nice review! Can you please share a timespy score? thanks

[fadialsayegh]

What is the track called? still haven't seen the review went looking for the track XD

[pitha-gnzr]

Seems to be a faulty paste on the CPU and GPU. In all other reviews the 4090 stays below 80C under full load

[saisamarths]

I was about to buy this but i bought the g14 2023 rtx 4060 instead cuz ot was on sale for 999usd. Do you think its better choice for value. Nice video it helped

[colinmunro]

Concise and balanced review.

I'm surprised you got 14 hours on battery playing youtube - what level brightness was it on?

Does it automatically switch to the integrated graphics when the 4090 is not required?

How much does the performance drop on battery while using the 4090?

Do the fans kick in when using less intense software like Microsoft Office?

How does the fan noise and heat compare with the 2024 g16 of lower gpu, which doesn't have the vapour chamber?

[perchie]

Ill just wait till next year if they fix the screen wobble and the ram being soldered ill buy this line of zephyrus. Damn than oled is lit!
