Hey what's up guys here, this is the most popular laptops that ASUS has because it's small it's powerful and it goes on sale pretty regularly you can get this thing at a fairly reasonable price without trying too hard and Its made something really special so this is running AMD new CPU and it's also running AMD new GPU and it's combined in hardware that has been tweaked and updated to take advantage of those new components and we have a laptop that is so much better than the previous stuff it's kind of weird so let's start off with the size it's a 14-inch device it's very compact and lightweight it comes in this white color which I'm a huge fan of and there's this Blueish purple badge down here which is slightly different this year I think it's really nice looking touch but on a device like this it's very hard to pack it with powerful components and cool it properly like a lot of companies have struggled with it but the G14 has always been able to do it pretty well but this year they just took it to a whole new level so the CPU in here is the 6900 HS from AMD and it pumps out about 15 better performance than the 5900 HS on last year's model but if you compare it to Intel's newest stuff Intel chip is faster this new AMD chip is great but it can't take the crown in terms of just raw performance but the key here is energy consumption because in order for Intel to get those numbers it has to pump a lot of power into its chip and with great power comes a lot of heat and on a device like this that is small and compact and thin heat is the deciding factor as to what you can do with it like what kind of components you can put into a device like this so we have a pretty energy efficient CPU but the GPU in here is where it really steps it up so on last year's model the top end configuration of this could only get up to an RTX 3060 a pretty good GPU but still just a 3060. this year they have their new AMD 6900HS and the performance that you're getting out of this chip is so much better than the RTX 3060. it'll depend on the game or the app they're using but in general it's a legit 30 to 40 bump in performance in just one product generation it's fantastic it's between like a 30 70 and a 30 80 in terms of performance it is however a 105 watt GPU instead of the 80 watt from the previous generation so it's like a 20 maybe 25 bump in energy consumption but like a solid 30 to 40 bump in performance it's absolutely worth it now to pull this off to have higher wattage in the same size as before you have to have a better thermal system than the previous stuff right so they've done a few things the fan blades have been tweaked so they draw a little bit more air uh the vapor chamber is a little bit bigger it covers a lot more stuff now so it's got the CPU the GPU and the RMS all covered with the vapor chamber and they have liquid metal on both the CPU and the GPU they've clearly put in a lot of effort to make this thing as thermally capable as they can but when you push this system hard it gets hot it's actually a couple degrees hotter than last year's model it's way more powerful than that one but when you slam it it gets hot it doesn't throttle and the external temperatures are fine, but this time a really difference with old generation.                                                                                                         Thanks for watching.
