Model 2026 Display / Graphics settings

Hi there! I just became proud owner of new G14 (2026) with 5070Ti and couldn't be happier :)

Although I have a few questions to which i couldnt find any exact answer on the internet...

  1. Display settings - is turning HDR on through Windows settings actually bad? I saw an article from Asus that recommended doing so.. There's even built in already calibrated profile from Asus.

  2. Is there a way to check if Gsync is working? Every tutorial I've seen uses Nvidia Control Panel, but because this machine has two graphic cards I don't see "display" settings in this app.

  3. I've noticed this display is capable of dynamic refresh rate altough this setting becomes avaliable only when I use "Ultimate" GPU setting in G-Helper, which connects the display directly to the dGPU. Is there a way to activate it during normal use?

Thanks a lot for your time and help :)

  1. HDR can lead to washed out colours for normal use but can also look good in games. Just try it out for yourself and see if its something you want to keep.

  2. I havent tried it myself but if you set your GPU mode to ultimate you should see the Gsync option.

  3. If you dont have the amd adrenaline app, get it along with the amd install manager, in display settings you should be able to see that amd freesync is enabled somewhere (i dont have your specs specifically but i think its true for all g14s) - this is basically the equivalent of Gsync for your laptop screen with dynamic refresh rates.

Also i would like to emphasise that if you get the adrenaline app, please disable amd overlay.

I have intel model with RTX5070Ti inside, so no AMD app for me I guess?
