DellG16 7630 Gaming Laptop - 16-inch QHD+ 240Hz 3ms Display, Intel Core i9-13900HX, 16GB DDR5 RAM, 1TB SSD, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 8GB GDDR6, Windows 11 Home, Onsite Service - Metallic Nightshade

I have owned many Dell computers in my lifetime and this one is a solid performer for gaming and everyday usage. Its only weakness is that the audio port seems to be a dust magnet and has to be blown out regularly to maintain a connection to an external speaker or headphone. I got tired of blasting it with a can of compressed air so I just use Bluetooth for external sound with it now.

Have had numerous serious issues with this laptop since I bought it. Every windows update breaks something else in the software.The Alienware command center app is a RAM hog. Playing WoW with discord open and the Alienware system monitor overlay was using 15 GB of RAM. The "Gaming mode" button that turns on turbo performance is also reportedly responsible for frying people's CPUs. I think mine is a victim of that as well.The PC overheats without the turbo mode on because the fans hardly work in normal performance mode. Mine likes to shut off randomly without warning or errors. I first thought it was overheating but it does it sometimes within minutes of being turned on for the first time in a day.Today, it shut off twice so I pulled the cover to check the battery connection. After unplugging the battery and plugging it back in, the PC would not turn on for about 30 minutes at all. It also now will not turn on unless it's plugged in, regardless of the battery charge, which remains at 81% and healthy according to the BIOS.Every update of windows or audio drivers changes the settings and defaults of my headphones to something else. There's are 3 locations of settings to choose which audio hardware you are using, and they all get swapped around. Having to dig through each one to figure out why my mic stops working for example, is annoying.These issues are far beyond my ability and desire to fix. In short, this has been the most problematic PC I've ever had the displeasure of using. And at $1700 it's laughably bad. A "Gaming PC" that overheats at idle while the screen is in sleep mode is just stupid.

Value of money

Bought this laptop for work purposes with a docking station. Something more convenient to transfer data from the office to the house and keep working on the same set up. The screen looks beautiful compared to my older model 1080p and especially wonderful on my samsung monitors. Set up was easy and simple however making sure each of the we're drivers updated was a test of patience. Because of the dual graphics cards and the auto detect functions for activities you see a lot of activity in the background.Immediately uninstalled mcaffee and seen a considerable improvement in the computer, obviously using other security programs. Generally have 4 screens going with multiple applications and haven't seen any overall problems. Crashed the computer on a couple triple A high end games trying out the highest settings and started finding the limitations of the ram. Definitely purchase a cooling board because this unit gets hot.overall id give it a 4 out of 5 due to needing a bit more ram for those high end games at ultra settings.

Es un buen equipo, muy potente, 16gb de ram le quedan chicos, para usar todo su potencial necesita los 32gb. El software y los servicios de dell son ideales para tener bien el rendimiento. Si bien es una notebook, su tamaño, peso y cargador(gigante) no la hacen muy comoda para el transporte, y no existe bolsos de notebook para su tamaño por lo que directamente habrá que llevarla en una mochila. 1tb es lo minimo e indispensable para usarla en un principio pero luga ya te deja ver que se necesitará otro ssd. Por mi parte el software de macaffe no es de mi agrado, considero que consume muchos recursos del pc para mantenerlo seguro, y sinceramente si no te metes en paginas raras, no descargas software de dudosa procedencia y no abres los mail spam de "te ganaste un smartphone" con windows defender basta y sobra. Por ultimo note que el software de alienware que trae y el de nvidea se pisan uno al otro buscando optimizar la pc, supongo que bastara con probar cual da mejor resultado y a partir de entonces elegir solo uno de los dos.

Update: i go the replacement and it does NOT have the line on the screen. laptop runs games well at 1080p, which is what i was hoping for. only issue is that the laptop acts weird on battery. i was playing eldin ring and it ran fine for a while, but then just started running at 1-2 fps. alt+tab tooks a while to work and so did the windows button. first time i had to hard shut down. when it happened again i was able to close the game and the desktop ran fine after that. really weird. may have been over heating or something. i was playing it in the car. never got any notifications about the computer over heating though.poor quality control and weirdness on battery. It'll run things fine on power and if you can get one without the line on the screen. Definitely good for under $1000. The one i got is defective. It has a line on the screen. Updated bios, drivers, used ddu, booted to external media. Persisted. Sending back and ordered another one. Will update if that replacement is not defective.

Perfecto robusta se ve fuerte en los materiales que se utilizan para construir el dispositivo y súper rápida

Nice screen. Unfortunately, mouse input was sticky, and when tasked with baldurs gate 3 or even C&C generals, screen updates were too slow. Power supply alone is bigger and heavier than many pc's. Gets very hot very fast. Spent hours researching, not willing to spend additional hours fixing Dell's QA and design issues. Returned.
