The main problem is the use of only USB C charging which limits the entire laptop to a max of 140W. The cooling can actually handle around…

I work at an Officeworks and they've told us recently to stop price matching Costco. They said it was a company wide decision so it won't…

I thought that the performance loss with TB4/USB4 is pretty massive. Are there any reasonably priced laptops with TB5 or Oculink?

I'm definitely aware of the privilege to go overseas for study and I do intend to make the most of it by travelling and seeing new sights…

I'd like to think I could balance school and play there. I just completed a semester at UniMelb whilst working 25 hours a week and still…

See if you can grab a ASUS TUF A14 on sale as that seems to tick all your boxes Edit: The 4050 variant is on sale for exactly $2000 at JW…

I leave to study in the UK for my bachelors in October and I've been in a bit of a quandary regarding whether I should build an SFF PC or…

Yeah I can get the 5080 at Officeworks for roughly the same through the team member discount but it still doesn't seem that worth it when…

Mate you're living my dream. The G14 and G16 are the ideal laptops for my situation but they never seem to go on particularly steep…

No news of a 14 inch Legion this generation so far. I imagine with the Legion 5 now at 15.1 inches, there isn't much room for a 14 inch…

Cheaper by a few hundred compared to almost every other 5080 laptop. What price would you be consider a deal?

In the market for a gaming laptop to take with me overseas to study and game and came across this cracker of a deal for a 5080 laptop with…

Why would anyone get this over the Omen Max or Legion Pro 7?

G14 2024 4070 is commonly on sale at Best Buy for 1700 USD but seems perennially at 3700AUD here
02/04/2025 - 12:08
Obviously not the best value in terms of performance per dollar, but many people need the portability. Just different use cases
02/04/2025 - 12:01
Yes a full powered mobile 4060 is what I meant

Looking at G14 2024 with a Zen 4 Ryzen 9, 32GB RAM, and 4070 delivered from the US through eBay for around 2800 (Used of course). Would you…

Unfortunately, it seems like the mark up on Zephyrus G laptops are particularly egregious here in Autralia
02/04/2025 - 06:35
I would have preferred the white colour as well but I think it's just the grey for this sale
01/04/2025 - 20:46
Need some help deciding on a new laptop for university and for gaming. I'll be studying overseas so I need a very portable solution as I'll…

I'd argue that you can't compare a 14 inch laptop with a 17.3 one, but yes, that does offer much more performance per dollar. There is also…

Per reviews, it's actually one of the quietest and coolest 14 inch gaming laptops (not that high of a bar to be fair), even compared to…

Read my post mate but in short, no. (Unless you flash a higher wattage vbios)

HP Omen Transcend 14, Intel Ultra 9 185H, 32GB RAM, RTX 4070, 3K OLED $2559.20 Delivered @ HP Official eBay Store
Pretty premium built gaming laptop that is (relatively) thin and light. Closest competitor would be the Zephyrus G14 but similar…

Omen Transcend 14 with 4070 for $2550 is the real bargain
01/04/2025 - 18:18
There is literally a single $4500 laptop/tablet with that chip for the foreseeable future
15/03/2025 - 10:49
Looks intriguing. Hard to find any reviews about it though, but on paper it ticks quite a few boxes. Do you have any thoughts on their…

Working casual at Officeworks lol. Just don't have too many other expenses
