According to ASUS’ Amory Crate app, the CPU temperatures will reach the mid-to-upper 90’s when initially under a heavy load, just like most of the today’s high-end notebooks, but the cooling fans will then kick in and drag temps down. Unfortunately, UL’s tools weren’t capturing CPU temperatures across the plot, but we can report that the Ryzen 9 6900HS in the ROG Zephyrus G14 is well behaved. What you see here are relatively consistent CPU frequencies across all of the tests, with lots of peaks and valleys in terms of power consumption. ![]() We also have some CPU-related data captured during a PCMark 10 run. Quiet mode is the tamest, while Turbo mode is the most aggressive. For a machine of this size, and with the kind of performance it offers, the ROG Zephyrus G14’s noise output is in-line with competing systems.Īs you would expect, temperatures also ramp differently depending on what power mode the system is using. The acoustic report is also somewhat high pitched, which may be off-putting for some. The ROG Zephyrus G14 flirted with the 53dB mark in our tests. When maxed out in Turbo mode and place under a heavy, sustained load, things can get a little louder. However, again the noise floor can fluctuate greatly, depending on the power mode. That’s not bad in light of other gaming notebooks. Under a sustained, heavy workload, with the fans spinning at their max, we registered between 47 – 48dB on our meter. In performance mode, the acoustic output from the fans ramps up considerably. When the fans do spin up in Quiet mode, the ROG Zephyrus G14 barely registered over 41dB on our meter, with it placed about a foot away from the display. It’s effectively silent at idle and under light loads. ![]() In Quiet mode, the machine if rather tame acoustically. ![]()
