Performance Summary

The ASUS Vivobook M1407KA-PS74 runs on the AMD Ryzen AI 7 350 with 4P+4S cores (multi-threaded), posting a PassMark multi-thread score of 24,469. That places it ahead of 23% of the 101 laptops in our August 2026 database. That is comfortably mid-to-upper tier: fast app launches, smooth multitasking and respectable rendering times.

Display

You get a 14″ IPS panel at 1920x1200 (162 PPI) refreshing at 60 Hz. The IPS panel offers dependable viewing angles and accurate-enough color for everyday use.

Gaming Performance

There is no dedicated GPU here — graphics run on the AMD integrated solution, scoring 3/10 for gaming. Esports staples (Valorant, LoL, CS2) are playable at modest settings; modern AAA gaming is off the table.

Productivity

For office and productivity work the Vivobook M1407KA-PS74 scores 4/10. 16 GB of DDR5 memory keeps large spreadsheets, dozens of tabs and video calls running simultaneously without paging. The 512 GB SSD keeps boots and file operations fast.

Programming

Developers should expect a 4.3/10 experience. Core count is limited — fine for scripting and web work, slow for big compiles. The taller 16:10-class screen shows meaningfully more code per screenful. Upgradeable RAM means you can start smaller and expand later.

Video Editing

Without a dGPU, editing leans entirely on the CPU — fine for 1080p cuts, slow for 4K multi-layer work. For color-critical delivery, plan on an external calibrated monitor.

3D Rendering & Engineering

3D and engineering workloads score 3.7/10. Integrated graphics restrict this machine to light 2D CAD and coursework-scale models.

Battery

Battery specifics aren’t listed in our source data, so treat this as guidance: expect average endurance typical of this class.

Upgradeability

RAM is socketed and user-upgradeable beyond the included 16 GB — a big longevity win. Storage is M.2 SSD-based, typically replaceable for capacity upgrades.

Heat & Noise

Integrated-graphics designs like this run cool and quiet; fan noise should only surface under sustained heavy loads.

Port Selection

Port selection isn’t enumerated in our source sheet, but as a general laptop in the 14″ class, expect the standard mix of USB-A, USB-C and HDMI. Verify the exact loadout on the Amazon listing before buying.
