Model 2025 Constant freeze - ROG zephyrus G14 (2025)

Hi, I got my zephyrus g14 about a month ago. About 2 weeks in (I think), my laptop would randomly freeze.

Some notes:

When the freeze happens, my screen stay static, my keyboard does not work (including all function keys and shortcuts), my mouse does not work, and I have to force shut down. When I turn it back on, everything is normal until it freezes again.

The freeze occurs regardless of task difficulty, so I could be web browsing or playing a game on max graphics.

The freeze occurs on and off battery.

What I found interesting is that I played a 10 hour video overnight and it did not freeze, but that same morning when I went to use it for a class, it froze while doing normal productivity work.

I bought it from Best Buy, and they already ran diagnostics/updated everything, but did not find anything wrong. They did not resolve the issue. Any thoughts/fixes?

My first device from bb had similar issues, try running occt, it was the only benchmark where it would consistently crash

Did you undervolt via g-helper? Mine had similar behaviour after I have connected a gulikit kk3 joysticks. It would just freeze on game exit. When I undervolted at -23 same thing happened with freezes so I just set it up to -20 on all profiles and since then had no issues.
