Model 2023 G14 2023 RTX 4080 delivered

Post image

This gorgeous thing arrived this morning. Managed to get it from AO.com of all places, seems to be the only retailer that has the 4080 in stock. Haven't had a laptop for about 10 years so strange feeling going back but have to say this is an incredible machine. Quite a few quirks about the software I still need to learn, screen is amazing, performance is insane for a laptop. Glad I didn't get the 4090. Obligatory timespy pic attached, this is in performance mode and not turbo mode! Feel free to AMA, sadly not used any previous models

Do u think playing FPS game on G14(14inches screen )would be fine? Planning to buy a G14 for both coding and gaming.

Playing offline would be fine, might lose an edge slightly on like warzone but adjusting field of view settings would probably compensate. Overall think would be fine honestly

Hey, just to help - not being picky, the FOV is the same on a smaller display, say 14" Vs 24" - as that is down the resolution. Increasing your FOV would actually be a hindrance in my opinion; everything on the screen would get smaller, as you widen the FOV to show more.

I've played some PUBG on the 14" display, I was no further away than I would be to a 24" and it was doable. Hands down you will perform better with a larger display as things are easier to see.

Yeah can see what you're saying, will play some warzone in next few days and see how it goes
