ASUS ROG Strix G18 G814 review – as Powerful as the G834 but Costs Less
Source: Laptop Media English
For a high-performance laptop without the crazy-high price tag, the ROG Strix G18 G814 is a great alternative to the more expensive G834. The G814 sibling has the same potent cooling which leads to high CPU clocks of 3.37 GHz / 2.76 GHz for the P and E cores during max processor stress. Our laptop has an RTX 4070 that can maintain a 132W TGP alongside a 2550 MHz core clock. Yep, that’s a good result. Still, the much more powerful 12GB RTX 4080 is also available as an option. The upgradability is adequate – two SODIMMs and a pair of Gen 4 slots for 2280 NVMe drives. The manufacturer claims that this device is compatible with up to 32GB of DDR5-5600MHz RAM while the G834 model offers (officially) 64GB with the same memory speed.
