G15 5520

Going to update next year with the a19 pro. Already have a decent windows machine (165hz, Ryzen 7th gen m, 4060m, 16gb $900 machine on sale) but I’m tired of the windows part and Dell g15 build quality (battery died right after warranty period, brother’s machine had a faulty 8gb stick)

I have a gaming laptop - Dell g15 5520 - and advise you to take the battery concern SERIOUSLY. Mine runs google for two hours on battery life.

I have a Dell G15 5520, almost the same laptop with OP, only with an Intel CPU. It has Cachy OS installed on it, Nvidia drivers are 575. Suspend and sleep: working now Power Boost: working now Overclock and Undervolt (LACT): working now DirectX 9-11 performance: on par with Windows Vulkan performanc

Any solution found? dell g15 5515 same issue, gpu refuses to go beyond 40 watts no matter what. gpu temps and hotspots temps are both 70c at best idk whats going on

If the price is right then go for it, keep in mind that this is last gen hardware. Also, Dell no longer makes the G series of laptops, this line was replaced by an entry level Alienware lineup. As for the laptop itself, it should serve you well for the next few years. I have the G15 5520 with 12th G

Yeah you're fine. You can use the Dell software to adjust the charging setting, you can set it to always plugged in. I think by doing this it limits the charge to 80% improving battery longevity. And obviously with you exercising the battery every now and again you should be fine. I also have the G1
