Recently bought M15 R5 with 5800H, 3070 and 1440P screen. Only issue i had was creaking noise when opening laptop. Left bottom corner plastic screen cover was a bit loose. Contacted Dell support and next day morning engineer show in my home and change display. Not a fan of Alienware Command Center though and end up uninstalling it. ACC was causing issues with MS Store/Xbox app game pass games and ramping fans without any reason.
@@nicklorigo3507 let us know how you find it. Don’t forget to get into bios and adjust TCC setting. 0 equals 100c, 15 equals 85c max cpu temperature. Factory setting is 0.
Hi Victor. Can you share, when connected through USB-C --> Display Port, does Nvidia control panel show the USB-C as wired to GeForce or integrated AMD?
@@vishalbhola07 I bought it at the newly open Flagship Dell store in Singapore. It was just a one-off promotion. The best part is I even got the slim Alienware charger instead of the huge Dell power brick
I suggest u get the R6 with RTX 3070..SSD wise doesnt matter if it is only 256gb..u can buy ur own 1TB n add in 2nd slot for games n work .. 256gb can let it run OS only
@@barnygreenman4223 I've had no issues with it, great piece of kit. Feel like if you look at what you can get for £900 elsewhere, this blows everything else out of the water
@@GlassTecRacing what’s the build quality like? Torn between this with the 1440p screen or a Lenovo legion 5 which I can also get for 900 with the same specs lol
@@barnygreenman4223 Good weight balance, passes the one finger test (if you know what I mean by that). Bezels are sleek, and standard keyboard is lovely to use. Trackpad is too small but I use a mouse 100% of the time. Does get a little hot but they've got to cool that 3060 - fan noise is never an issue for me but I don't pump games through it too often. No plastic clicking under pressure either. Having a key-pad would be nice which I see the Legion has, but not an issue for me personally.
This is weaker than my gtx 1070/7700 from 5 years ago. Yikes. In fact, my 1070 gets more FPS in these games at 1440p than the alienware does at 1080p. I know that TGP is low but why is it underperforming so terribly, is it the thermals?
@@dablazarus7303 wow..that is incredible. My M15 R6 with 3070 only managed 50-70+ fps in all Ultra 1080p with Ultra Ray tracing even though i change the tcc to 10..it would throttle to 20 to 30 if play more than 30+ mins if never change the tcc..I think u got more fps because GTX doesn hv Ray tracing hence this will improved fps tremendously.

I own this machine and it's a horrible machine. It can run games well but the keyboard is fragile and after a few months start to fall off. The power jack is sloppy causing charging issues. Overall the product is of poor quality. I wouldn't buy again.
Thats really strange..i dont experienced any thermal issue even though im running ultra high ray tracing when playing cyberpunk with my R6 with i7 & RTX3070.. the RGB board is awesome .. trackpad sucks yes but it will do the job..
Should’ve gotten an exchange, I just received my exchange for a 5 month old r5. This new one came with a 3070 instead of 3060 and the quality is so much better than my last one
@@LS-vc9uq yes mine is also with 3070 but with the R6. However, the performance is just slightly better but I hv to adjust the TCC especially if I put everything on Ultra with Battlefield V & Cyberpunk. If I don't adjust to TCC 10 it still ran well with FPS 50 to 70+ however after 30 to 45 minutes.. the FPS will drop till 20-30 n never seems to recovered from it..I guess is because once the CPU hit 100 degree it the FPS wil crumble..after adjusting to 10 inside TCC the framers drops to like 40 to 60+ with Ultra but it never crash to 20-30 fps even playing for 2 to 3 hours

Just bought one as well, whopping 1999$ price tag.
I got ryzen 9 and rtx 3070

Paid 1000$ bucks for mine and absolutely love it.
Im still considering whether to go for the M15 R5 or the flagship X15. Any advise?
In the end i got the R6 intel version i7-11800 with RTX 3070. Promo for only S$2,399 with free gifts of Alienware bag & mouse

What is the GPU wattage? We have 3060 ranging from 80W to 130W. Each giving vastly different performance.
it's 130w with the last bios update
the performance isn't vastly different between the wattages
@@omaraboudal-abadi5907 what bios version?
@@LogBBBB
1.1.0
With the last update of the gpu at the website of dell

How about the weight on this laptop r7 5800h 3060 fullhd 165hz ?
what docking station suitable for this model?
This laptop 3060 can out perform F15 due to CPU bottleneck and locked clock speed. Loved the content but recommendations in the end weren’t great.
F15 Quad core paired with an rtx 3070 in 2022 was an embarrassment
GIGABYTE A5 K1 - 15.6" FHD IPS Anti-Glare 240Hz - AMD Ryzen™ 7 5800H - NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Laptop GPU 6 GB GDDR6 - 16 GB Memory - 1TB PCIe SSD - Windows 11 Home - Gaming Laptop (A5 K1-BUS2150SB). If you’re trying to get a cheap laptop btw Price $999 yep idk how
Is it better than lenovo Legion 5 pro 3060 ?
Is it overheated with r7 5800h 3060 ?
Does this support mux switch?
This is on sale for £1,000, down from £1500 - More worth it because of this?? Does the £ saved outweigh the issues?
Did you buy it? I can get it for £900 and not sure if should or not!

Do that Lenovo and Asus has customer service as good as Dell???
i think All Dell Products (when purchased from Dell) come with 1 year product warranty, they are Really Good with the Customers
Good question, which he needs to answer....
@@sangam9122i did answer it bud
Did stuttering get better?
Hi! The rtx 3060 on this one has a 115 watt tdp?

Wonder whats the after service like for alienware in malaysia
It's similar to Dell, onsite service.
it’s $950 now is it worth?

What's the TDP of the 5800H
45 watt
