    My Opinion: If you want a Alienware but don't have the money the G series is your option, are the same motherboard as alienware but with a cheaper hardware and less RGB.

    I was so happy to buy this computer because I thought, being a loyal Dell purchaser, this laptop was going to be the top of the line purchase. I AM severely dissatisfied and disappointed. Couldn't do a simple task without it overheating. Not even playing a game yet. Fan was replaced now making my $2000+ computer into a refurbished laptop. Now Dell offering to replace the motherboard. It may or may not resolve the issue. I'm making payments now on a refurbished machine. DELL was the brand I bought from for over 20 years. Very disillusioned. Most likely my last Dell machine.

    Hi! before I begin: I am a normal consumer dad, and I learned alot today about diff. cables and protocols (at least I guess...) We just bought a SAMSUNG Odyssey G5 34 inch on sale for my sons ~2y old DELL G16 7630 (RTX4060) i5 13450HX. Now I am struggling to find out whether my "USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 port with DisplayPort" (from the original DELL specs PDF) offers "DP alternate mode" in order to connect the monitor with a USB-C to -> DP cable. (I hope I got it right..) Otherwise I would use the HDMI 2.1 exit with HDMI cable, which - I guess - offers 4K +120Hz only. MANY THANKS!!! for your help, please provide buying recommendation for good cable brand also. BR from Berlin, Sascha

    At the same price, would you choose a: Dell G16, GeForce RTX 4070 8Gb GDDR6, Intel i9-13000HX, 1Tb M2 SSD, 32Gb RAM with the 2560x1600 240Hz display or Asus ROG Strix G16, GeForce RTX 4060 8Gb GDDR6, intel i9-13980HX, 1Tb SSD, 16 Gb RAM with the 2560x1600 240 Hz Display ? I heard a lot of people complaininga about build quality of the Dell G16 and also for my use (university and gaming) a laptop that does not have this huge power brick that adds a lot of weight to the already heavy computer, with a better resolution camera (even though I can still buy a webcam maybe just for meetings) and more reliable would be the better option. Taking this into account would you say that it is worth it paying 50€ more for the Asus with worst specs or I would be completely fine with the Dell ?

    I wonder what is Dell's logic of using inverted motherboards still? I feel like they are one of the only companies who constantly do this with all of their models, making repasting such a pain. Also unacceptable to not have a USB-C/ mini-DP port that goes to the Nvidia GPU directly for that kind of $.

    @Mash IT Great review! You earned yourself a new sub. I have been looking to purchase this, so your thoughts are super helpful. Am eagerly awaiting your game test review on the Mash Extra channel. I am okay with rest of the compromises; it's just the high CPU temps I'm worried about. I am from India, so the ambient temps are much higher here, which could make matters worse. Would you happen to know what the long term effects on the laptop are, if the CPU sits in 90-100 deg C range during long gaming sessions? I primarily want to play the MS FLIGHT SIMULATOR on this. No undervolting is a real bummer. Thanks :)

Quick games on PUBG......It plays 1080 at ULTRA really smoothly OR 1600 at HIGH ....1600 at ULTRA has couple of jerks....but graphics vs PUBG Mobile are AMAZING. Your right about speakers but I use headphones. The BRICK is a BRICK 😂. Only got about 2 hours playing PUBG, but I expected as much....I would expect 3 to 4 doing almost ANYTHING else!!

    Great video but I was disappointed that you didn't mention that the aspect ratio of the G16 is 16:10. Dell have been moving away from 16:9 to 16:10 making the diagonal measurement pointless and misleading as we are no longer comparing apples with apples. I recently moved from a Dell XPS 15.6" @ 16:9 to a 17" XPS @ 16:10 and it makes only a fraction of an inch difference. I suspect if the G16 @ 16:10 is in fact smaller than a 15.6" @ 16:9 and thus contrary to what you said about it being to big to fit in your bag - it might fit better.

    I could have sworn I mentioned 16:10 but I will go an take a look. And basically it is exactly the same width as a 15.6" laptop panel but slightly taller, I measured it against a 15r2 16:9 panel. And the biggest problem with the bag is not just the screen but the fan grills that stick pout the back making the laptop deeper especially when combined with a 16:10 panel. Hope this makes sense

    when you say throttles, can you please be more clear. how much wattage are you getting on sustained load? Intel CPUs boost until high temps and throttles back which is normal as no intel CPU can maintain max clocks indefinitely. Can you compare your Cinebench scores to mine?

    I saw in another video on the G16 that it has an auto throttle when the system experiences movement in the chassis (i think to 'protect' parts) and the sensors can be oversensitive causing constant power throttling to CPU and GPU (some have reported it from only enthusiastic key pushing). There is a way to disable it... i will find the link and edit comment Edit: on the following video - skip to 8:15 and the guy explains why you might be experiencing that and how to fix it / disable the feature kzread.info/dash/bejne/fYqOlaaAksyfYZM.html

    I’m sitting at home waiting for delivery of my G16 with the 4060 and i7. I’m going to use it mainly for photo editing. His upgrade video seems to demonstrate that adding a storage ssd is pretty easy and cost effective. I’m not too concerned with upgrading the RAM or primary ssd, but maybe in the future I’ll feel the need. Without going through the small print I assume open the laptop will void the warranty so that is a consideration.
