You can obviously activate the backlighting of the chiclet keyboard whenever you need to better discern your keys.
However, the keyboard does not have a numeric keypad on its right, although this functionality is standard from 15 inches to easily enter numbers.
We regret that Asus does not offer its NumPad functionality as compensation. Because once activated, it converts the touchpad into a tactile numeric keypad.

The screen will delight both gamers and creators with its frequency of 240Hz, significantly higher than the standard 60Hz, which clearly improves overall fluidity, including in games, especially since latency is reduced here.
Furthermore, the screen offers DCI-P3 colorimetric accuracy well above average while its viewing angles, both horizontal and vertical, are significant thanks to its IPS technology.
The High Fidelity screen, whose 16/10th format displays more elements in height than the classic 16/9th, is also High Definition since it adopts the 2.5K definition superior to Full HD.
Coated with an anti-reflective treatment, the screen also ensures better visibility in a bright environment (e.g. outdoors) than a shiny panel.

Performance, battery life of the Asus ROG Strix G16 G614JV-N4118W

The Asus ROG Strix G16 G614JV-N4118W may appeal to those who wish to invest in a versatile multimedia laptop PC that performs well in gaming and creation.

The good overall power it provides will delight demanding users since it is based on an Intel Raptor Lake Core i7-13650HX processor with 14 hybrid cores as well as 16 GB of RAM.

The potential of this core is particularly revealed in areas that are intensive in CPU and RAM resources using multi-core, such as 3D rendering, video editing or photo editing. Under this type of work, we obtain faster processing thanks to this gaming laptop than if we were dealing with a PC based on a classic Quad/Hexa Core processor.

Creative people will appreciate this laptop even more as it offers graphics acceleration through the onboard GeForce RTX 4060 graphics card. And this under software that takes advantage of the power of GPU calculations, such as the Adobe suite, VSDC or Vegas.

The GeForce RTX 4060 ray tracing is a high-end dedicated NVIDIA Ada Lovelace graphics card that will also interest gamers. Because it is able to run recent games.
Some concessions are nevertheless necessary under the heaviest titles to obtain good playability. Because in 2.5K a greater number of calculations are necessary than in Full HD, which implies a lower number of fps.

In practice, the GeForce RTX 4060 is used by NVIDIA Optimus technology to carry out graphics processing deemed too heavy for the Iris Xe graphics module directly inserted into the Core i7.

Watching HD photos and videos is of course possible, whether with the GeForce RTX 4070 or the Iris Xe. The latter, whose benefits are low, is nevertheless favored wherever possible by Optimus to ensure the best possible autonomy.
In this area, expect around 5 hours of battery operation in light use.

Depending on needs, Optimus automatically switches in real time between the Intel Iris Xe and the GeForce RTX 4060.

Thanks to the large storage capacity of 1000 GB, you can install and store quantities of games, software and files on this creative gaming laptop PC.

It is of course a silent, energy-efficient, shock-resistant and quiet SSD that is integrated here. It guarantees great responsiveness and fluidity on a daily basis.
So thanks to the SSD we quickly reach the online game cards while launching games/software is done quickly just like starting/stopping or even carrying out processing.

Finally, in the event of heavy loads (e.g. games, treatments) this versatile multimedia gaming laptop PC heats up and is noisy.
To contain its temperatures, we can associate it with a ventilated support (remember to check the dimensions carefully!).
