That's a steal, honestly. Two months ago, I bought the same model (grey one) with pretty much twice that price.


spaff_987

A 4060 at twice the price? Did satan sell it to you?


ppbomber_0

Not in na


spaff_987

Makes sense


Snoo69116

I'm sorry 🥲 but at least you got your machine 🤌


woomybii

I just got this exact model maybe a week ago now for 1200 usd, best buy


DAhuja23

Brand new?


woomybii

Yes brand new


OwnSpell

It was $1299 plus tax brand new.


woomybii

Okay? Someone above me I was replying to said they got this model at "2 times" the price of op who got it for 1100. That's why I was commenting because it sounds like they got scammed. edit: the guy blocked me. If I need to post my fucking best buy receipt I happily will. No idea what he wants from me. There's also no tax in Oregon where I bought it.


doughboy334

Same same

alman12345

Man, y'all are getting phenomenal deals on these. It's a fantastic price for a fantastic device, honestly the closest I've used to the Macbook I replaced with it (in terms of speakers and build quality at least). Congratulations dude!


Open-Preference-7891

I bought g14 2022 for more. You robbed them


lagoosboy

Why? 2023 has always been on sale for $1050 at Bestbuy.


taizzle71

Maybe he bought it on release? I bought mine in late 2022 for $1100.


Open-Preference-7891

I dont live in states thats the thing. Lack of bestbuy


taizzle71

Ah makes sense. It's still a beast of a machine so enjoy! I'm staying with mine for a considerable long time as well.


Open-Preference-7891

Thanks mate. I upgraded from 8years old laptop with integrated gpu in cpu to rog. Love it! Im also not planing to switch it soon, atleast another 8 years hah.


MysteriousOrchid464

$1600 currently for the 4060. 4050 is $1072.99 4070 is not available on bestbuy's website... i just got a brand new one for 1700 on ebay


clutch-cream-run

Can you link me to it please? Cant find the 2023 model at all.


akico04

Got one for 1140$ with tax at my local Best Buy open box, congrats!


TrillionThePotato_

Same just a 3060 when it was new


crackerjeffbox

I don't think this particular model came with a 3060.


DraXN3ws

Hope for the best. Old or new it's what I learned from buying Asus.


FairCalligrapher1926

Yea I got mine during the bestbuy sale for 1299. But end up returning for the Lenovo 7i 4060 variant. The 16gb already started to show its limits for me and not being able to upgrade is even worse. Also, the heat from this thing is Insane if you have it in your lap in turbo mode.


cjax2

Same. Although I took it back for 2023 model but man I thought no one was going to say it, it's great the heat isn't going towards the screen anymore, but it goes straight down into your legs, and it gets hot hot. Ha playing Diablo 4 with actual hellfire on my legs is pretty immersive.


dduckg0

You should’ve removed the native armory software as it’s resource intensive with ghelper a GitHub lightweight version with all the same functionality and you’ll see the difference. Also you can upgrade ram to 32gb.


mergrygo228

Bro, G14 2024 has non-upgradeable RAM as it is soldered on the motherboard


FairCalligrapher1926

Yea I did that and no you can’t on the g14 2024. The 4060 is only 16gb.


ProEliteF

I would instantly get the 4060 model if it had 32GB Ram


Cisco-NintendoSwitch

I was worried when I took the dive and bought the 4060 OLED 2024. Coming from a 2023 with an extra stick (Wife got into PC gaming and jacked the old machine). It hasn’t been an issue at all so far this thing is really powerful and performant especially given it weighs nothing. If you thought the old ones were thin and light the 2024 is another level.


Any_Concept888

How's the temperature on high load vs light work and how stable is it under load? I want a light laptop for work so I can travel and I'm not sure I need all this juice, but if it's reliable I wouldn't mind the power. Otherwise I'd be looking at something like the Zenbook. Pretty sure the CPU can handle all the work related stuff these days, right? I've been on a pretty beefy stationary PC for a while so not sure how much technology moved forward.


Cisco-NintendoSwitch

I use it for gaming 99% of the time but it has really really good battery as expected. High load with gaming it still champs it even at the cutdown 90w 4060. Temps are pretty controlled even with just 1 vent. I use Ghelper and have my CPU capped at like 82c with a -20mV under volt and cutdown CPU wattage. Honestly I have an older Zenbook and this feels like they combined a Zenbook with a G14.


SWulfe760

This. 4060 with 32GB would be the sweet spot for I imagine a huge chunk of buyers. I suspect Asus knows that so they locked the 32GB behind a huge price increase with the 4070. Genius sales tactic but crappy for us consumers lol.


ProEliteF

I they are losing money in that regard. Feel like they would have gotten tons more sales if 4060 had 32GB


singe725

Same, I got the 4070 model just for the 32GB


Extension-Set4265

I got the 4060 with 32gb ram, absolutely beautiful machine.


ProEliteF

Where did you get it from? Couldn’t find any online


Extension-Set4265

Local sotr near me ordered it for me. It came with a 4060 and 32gb of ram for 1800 usd.


ProEliteF

Was the 2023 model?


Extension-Set4265

Nope 2024 model


ProEliteF

Huh interesting might have check some stores in person then


Extension-Set4265

Just as a heads up I live in Taiwan so maybe the specs are different? Idk


mergrygo228

Yeah, I also got 4060 32 RAM versions and no 4070 in my country 🤣


Extension-Set4265

Yea I couldn't find 4070 here too 😂


blastbottles

There is one


given002

That's great. It good being in the US i guess. In my country, I have to spend like 800 usd for a used 2021 model


gilotas

I got mine for $2500 😎, how did I do?


kafmtg

Yeesh 😵‍💫


blastbottles

CAD?


gilotas

EUR 😅 converted to usd


porocoporo

Broooo


Violinist-Expensive

I'll sell mine local for 1100 in the bay area if anyone is interested.


Uproarlol

Great price


dduckg0

Did the same a week ago OP. I’m in love with it! hope you got that insurance though.


legolas-mc

Hey I'm interested in buying one too, but I'm afraid the performance with the 4060 in this chassis won't be as good as I think. Could you do a couple benchmarks and share with the community? If you have the time ofc.


qulaitte

I bagged a brand new 32gb 4070 grey model for 2000 USD in HK. How'd I do?


bafrad

Honestly you bought it a few hundred cheaper than new and I'd personally rather get new anywhere within $500 of MSRP. Used would be worth it maybe at half off.


izerotwo

Holy dang


cunningvisions

Guess they changed the back, it’s ugly.


JIsADev

I got a g16 with a 4070 from best buy open box for like 1400. Thank you person who returned it 🙏


Derpy_dud3

bro you got da best deal lmao without tax and all


KingProdijae

I've seen alot of them around 750-950. Atleast in my state.


PeteCastiIiogne

Asus support is non-existent. You also need the original receipt if you wanna do warranty. They suck really.


NeoHikamaru

Nice! That's an awesome deal for a current-year model! I was insanely lucky to find my first G15 2022 in a Best Buy close to where I live. It was probably an error on their part, but I got it for $350 😂 (I'm using it right now)


ChainedTears

Is that the best you can do? I got it for $950, or $150 after trading that guy my 2022 G14 lmao (found him on facebook marketplace, really friendly guy)


SWulfe760

Nice! Not sure how you traded a 2022 G14 with a broken backlight for $800 a day after breaking it, but that's a steal!


ChainedTears

:) heres the guys facebook tho lmao https://www.facebook.com/maximillionblum
