Asus Zephyrus G14 GA401QM Laptop Review: AMD Still Rules The 14-inch Gaming Space

Zen 3 Cezanne and Nvidia Ampere upgrade. The Zephyrus G14 was the only game in town when it launched early last year, but times have changed. Some aspects of the system still hold up well while others are already starting to age when compared to the new 14-inch Razer Blade 14.

Asus introduced its Zephyrus G14 laptop early last year which made headlines for its small 14-inch form factor, 8-core AMD Ryzen 9 4900HS CPU, and GeForce RTX 2060 Max-Q Turing graphics. The then-new Zen 2 CPU would allow the G14 to outperform many larger 15.6-inch and 17.3-inch gaming laptops including those with 10th gen Core i9 CPUs.

For 2021, Asus has refreshed its Zephyrus G14 model to run on the newer Zen 3 Ryzen 9 5900HS Cezanne CPU and RTX 3060 Ampere GPU instead. The display and outer lid have also gotten new options to improve the visual experience. Our specific 144 Hz FHD configuration can be found online for $1500 to 1750 USD while the 120 Hz QHD option can be found for up to $2000.

Although the original Zephyrus G14 launched with no direct competitors in its size class, this 2021 version must now face off against the formidable Razer Blade 14. This review will therefore reference the Razer laptop and other larger gaming laptops for comparison purposes.

Case — Same Look With Some Shinier Trims

The mostly matte chassis remains the same as the 2020 model except for a couple of minor superficial changes: the Zephyrus font along the rear edge and the glossy logo near the corner of the outer lid are now more reflective and slightly purple, respectively. The small holes or perforations on the outer lid are also now reflective for a subtle rainbow effect. Dimensions and rigidity are otherwise untouched as is the optional Anime Matrix LED lighting feature.

For the enthusiasts keeping track, the Razer Blade 14 is both smaller and thinner than the Asus while weighing about 100 g more. The Zephyrus G14 is an older design, after all.

The Anime Matrix configuration is 2 mm thicker than the configuration without the feature since the outer lid must be able to hold the mini LEDs. Though unique, it's easy to forget that Anime Matrix exists since owners will almost always be looking at the screen and not its other side.

The lid will raise the base at a slight angle to aid in ergonomics and cooling

Hinge rigidity doesn't feel any better or worse than on the Blade 14, but the lid itself feels sturdier here

The glossy logo near the corner of the outer lid is more purple than on last year's model

The perforations on the outer lid are an easy way to distinguish the Zephyrus G14 from other laptops

More curves, corners, and small design nuances than on the smoother Blade 14

Lid opened to maximum angle (~145 degrees)

Connectivity — No Thunderbolt Compatibility

Port options and positioning haven't changed from the original G14. Thunderbolt remains elusive due to the AMD CPU, but at least the left USB-C port supports display-out, Power Delivery, and G-Sync.

Many of the ports are closer to the front edge than on most other notebooks where cables can get in the way.

Communication

An Intel AX200 comes standard for Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.1 connectivity. Transfer rates are consistent over time for reliable performance.

Maintenance

The bottom panel is easily removable with just a Philips screwdriver. Upgrade options may be limited, but at least RAM is expandable unlike on the Razer Blade 14.

Asus has changed the orientation of at least one heat pipe when compared to the 2020 GA401

Accessories and Warranty

There are no extras in the box outside of the AC adapter and paperwork. The usual one-year limited manufacturer warranty applies.

Input Devices — Excellent Key Feedback

Keyboard

Key size and feedback remain the same as on last year's model. We prefer the typing experience on the G14 over the Blade 14 as its keys have both deeper travel and stronger feedback. On the flip side, the keyboard here supports only single-zone white backlighting compared to the per-key RGB lighting of the Razer.

The layout of some secondary functions have changed year-over-year. For example, the brightness controls for the keyboard backlight have been moved to the top row while a new "Aura" key for toggling the backlight has replaced the fast forward key.

Touchpad

The Precision clickpad is smaller than the one of the Blade 14 (10.5 x 6 cm vs. 11.1 x 7.6 cm). Cursor control is still smooth and with just a bit of sticking when gliding at slow speeds while the integrated mouse keys remain shallow and with not enough feedback.

Slight changes to the layout of some secondary keys when compared to the 2020 model

Deeper travel and stronger feedback than most 14-inch Ultrabooks

Display — Smooth 144 Hz With Good Colors

Whereas the 2020 Zephyrus G14 uses a 120 Hz CEC PA LM140LF-1F01 IPS panel, our 2021 model uses a 144 Hz CEC PA LM140LF-1F02 IPS panel. Both appear to be essentially identical in color coverage and brightness according to our tests while other characteristics like response times and contrast ratios may be slightly better and worse, respectively, on the newer panel. It's a midrange to high-end panel overall even though it can't come close to the colors or response times of many 15.6-inch or 17.3-inch gaming-ready displays.

Note that Asus offers a higher resolution 1440p display option with full DCI-P3 coverage but a lower 120 Hz native refresh rate. The Blade 14 offers a similar 1440p panel as well albeit with an even higher 165 Hz native refresh rate.

FreeSync is enabled by default on the main display while G-Sync is supported for compatible external monitors.

Bottom "chin" bezel is thick relative to the other three edges

Narrow bezels on three of the four sides. The system still lacks a webcam

Slight uneven backlight bleeding along the edges and corners

* ... smaller is better

Color space covers >90 percent of sRGB to be more than enough for gaming and just barely passable for digital artists. Again, the WQHD option offers full DCI-P3 coverage for users who demand the deeper colors.

Asus claims a pre-calibrated display which our independent X-Rite colorimeter measurements can confirm. Average grayscale and color DeltaE values would barely change after attempting to calibrate the panel ourselves. Color temperature is a bit too cool, however, and so users may want to adjust it further.

Display Response Times

ℹ

Display response times show how fast the screen is able to change from one color to the next. Slow response times can lead to afterimages and can cause moving objects to appear blurry (ghosting). Gamers of fast-paced 3D titles should pay special attention to fast response times.

↔ Response Time Black to White
27.6 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↗ 16.4 ms rise
27.6 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↘ 11.2 ms fall
The screen shows relatively slow response rates in our tests and may be too slow for gamers. In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.8 (minimum) to 240 (maximum) ms. » 59 % of all devices are better. This means that the measured response time is worse than the average of all tested devices (23.9 ms).
↔ Response Time 50% Grey to 80% Grey
34.4 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↗ 15.6 ms rise
34.4 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↘ 18.8 ms fall
The screen shows slow response rates in our tests and will be unsatisfactory for gamers. In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.8 (minimum) to 636 (maximum) ms. » 31 % of all devices are better. This means that the measured response time is similar to the average of all tested devices (37.8 ms).

Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)

ℹ

To dim the screen, some notebooks will simply cycle the backlight on and off in rapid succession - a method called Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) . This cycling frequency should ideally be undetectable to the human eye. If said frequency is too low, users with sensitive eyes may experience strain or headaches or even notice the flickering altogether.

Screen flickering / PWM not detected

In comparison: 52 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 15366 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 2500000) Hz was measured.

Outdoor visibility is decent when under shade but otherwise subpar on bright days as the backlight isn't as bright as most dedicated Ultrabooks like the Dell XPS or MacBook. Viewing angles are excellent which is to be expected from an IPS panel.

Performance — 35 W AMD Zen 3 CPU With 60 W to 80 W RTX GPU

Asus is doubling down on AMD again by going with its latest Zen 3 Ryzen 9 5900HS CPU instead of an Intel Tiger Lake-H part. This particular processor directly replaces the Ryzen 9 4900HS on last year's Zephyrus G14. The Blade 14 and even smaller ROG Flow X13 are using the slightly different unlocked Ryzen 9 5900HX and 5980HS instead, respectively.

GPU options appear to be fixed at the GeForce RTX 3060 with resizable BAR and no 3070 or 3080 options. The maximum TGP (including Dynamic Boost) is only 80 W compared to 100 W or more on laptops like the Blade 14 or Aorus 17 meaning performance will be slightly slower on our Zephyrus G14. The Max-Q moniker may be gone, but its legacy remains when dealing with these small form factor gaming laptops.

RAM is soldered at 8 GB or 16 GB of DDR4-3200 depending on the SKU with one SODIMM expansion slot.

Our unit was set to Turbo mode via Armoury Crate prior to running any performance benchmarks below for the highest possible scores. Owners should become accustomed with the Armoury Crate software as key features like fan control, lighting, and performance are all toggled here.

Asus has confirmed with us that the system utilizes liquid metal thermal paste for the CPU.

Processor

Raw processor performance is essentially on par with the new 11th gen Tiger Lake-H Core i7-11800H that only just became widely available. This includes single-core benchmarks as well which is where AMD would normally falter. Users are truly getting the processor performance of a 15.6-inch or 17.3-inch gaming laptop in a small 14-inch form factor with the Zephyrus G14.

The gen-to-gen performance gains over the Ryzen 9 4900HS are about 10 to 20 percent. The 4900HS was already top-of-the-line when it launched early last year and so we weren't expecting huge improvements with the Ryzen 9 5900HS.

Any differences between the 5900HS and 5900HX are extremely minor as they are each limited by the overarching cooling solution of the laptop.

Storage Devices — Just One M.2 PCIe 3.0 x4 2280 Option

Instead of an Intel 660p like on last year's model, Asus has upgraded to the SK Hynix HFM001TD3JX013N which is able to offer significantly faster read rates approaching 3600 MB/s. Write rates are also faster even though they don't quite match the popular Samsung PM981a.

The internal M.2 slot does not fully support PCIe 4 SSDs that are becoming increasingly common on newer Intel laptops.

GPU Performance

Graphics performance with our Zephyrus G14 is almost 10 percent slower than the average laptop in our database equipped with the same RTX 3060 GPU. This deficit would remain true even when running the system on Turbo or maximum fan mode. Running the laptop in Performance mode instead of Turbo mode would result in a graphics dip of about 3 to 4 percent.

The slightly lower 3DMark scores translate to slightly slower frame rates during real-world gameplay. Performance in more demanding games like GTA V, Final Fantasy XV, or Witcher 3 would be behind the average RTX 3060 laptop by a few percentage points. Frame rates are nonetheless steady and without any unusual dips or micro-stuttering over time.

Users can still expect 15 to 30 percent faster graphics performance over the RTX 2060 Max-Q despite the below-average scores from our 60+ W RTX 3060.
