Designed to move

The design philosophy behind the TUF Gaming A14 is all about blending power with portability. As the smallest TUF Gaming laptop we’ve ever built, the A14 easily slips into bags, backpacks, and even some large purses, giving you the flexibility to take more essentials, and at just 1.46kg, it’s light enough to carry around all day.

The rear of the chassis features a full-width heatsink and large exhaust vents, increasing cooling performance and leaving the left and right sides of the machine free for I/O connectivity. This chassis design also allowed for the thin and sleek shape of the frame near the touchpad.

A 180° hinge design allows you to find the perfect angle no matter how you use the A14. The hinges are also mounted on top of the main frame of the laptop, allowing air to pass through the heatsinks with no impedance.

Portability

BUILT TO MOVE

At only 1.46kg, the TUF Gaming A14 is ready to travel anywhere — and built-in WiFi 6E will keep you connected at lightning-fast speeds wherever you go. Its 73Wh battery provides plenty of juice even without an outlet nearby, and it can fast charge to 50% in only 30 minutes when you need a quick top-off.

Durability

MILITARY GRADE TOUGHNESS

In order to earn the TUF Gaming name, these laptops must successfully survive a rigorous battery of MIL-STD-810H tests. Test devices are exposed to drops, vibration, humidity, and extreme temperatures to ensure reliability. Dependable even in the harshest conditions, the A14 is more than capable of withstanding the accidental bumps and knocks of everyday life.

Cooling

Stay frosty

Powerful components require powerful cooling, and the TUF Gaming A14 is capable of 110W in Turbo mode. So we equipped the machine with a whole suite of technology to keep it running at peak performance. The keyboard has been redesigned to increase airflow and reduce surface temperatures, and when paired with ultra-thin heatsink fins and 89-blade fans, the A14 will be running at peak performance for years to come.

Exhaust Vents

The TUF Gaming A14 features a large rear heatsink, making the most of its 14-inch frame. This rear exhaust keeps hot air and fan noise pointed away from you and your hands for a cooler and quieter experience.

Dust Filter

When dust and fibers collect inside a machine, heat can get trapped, causing degraded performance over time. A filter over the A14’s air intakes helps keep dust out, allowing the CPU and GPU to breathe easier for years of smooth and stable operation.
cooling_7 alt

0.1mm Ultra-Thin Fins

The A14’s thermal energy is dissipated by two heatsinks, each lined with ultra-thin copper fins as slim as 0.1 mm.
Higher density fins allow for increased heat dissipation and lower air resistance for smoother flow.
cooling_6 alt

Inward airflow

Not all air needs to be sent to the copper heatsinks. The fan shrouds have precisely calculated cutouts to direct airflow toward internal components like memory and VRM modules, keeping them cooler and operating at peak efficiency.
cooling_5 alt

89-blade fans

The dual fans come with 89 ultra-thin blades, just 0.1mm thick, enabling high airflow and static pressure without bothersome acoustics or whine.
cooling_4 alt

Fluid Dynamic Bearing

Both fans have a fluid bearing design, which is a tried and tested style that will keep the A14 operating at peak performance for years to come.
cooling_3 alt

Redesigned keyboard

Previous keyboard designs focused on keeping the chassis temperatures cool, keeping your fingers comfortable during long gaming sessions. The newly redesigned keyboard not only keeps your hands comfortable on the trackpad and keyboard deck, but increases air intake for the main system components as well, boosting the A14’s cooling performance without increasing weight or chassis size.
cooling_2 alt

0db Ambient Cooling

Enjoy truly silent cooling under light workloads with 0dB Ambient Cooling technology. In the Silent operating mode, the cooling system switches off all fans during everyday tasks to dissipate heat passively. This lets you concentrate on your work and immerse yourself in movies with less distraction. If CPU or GPU temperatures increase, the fans automatically switch on again.
cooling_1 alt

Fluid bearing fans also are low friction even when run in non-traditional orientations, letting you hold the A14 without worry.​

AI Noise Cancellation
Our advanced Two-Way AI Noise cancellation technology runs on the CPU, which frees up the GPU to hit higher framerates. It works with any input device and also with downstream connections, letting you remove noise from both your own mic input and from incoming feeds. Noise-canceling settings can even be customized per program, filtering specific apps like voice chat without affecting game audio you want to remain untouched.
