The Dell XPS 9510 laptop arrived in the hands of experts a few days ago, and there are strong expectations because it uses an RTX 3050. The reality is that it runs slower than the model with a GeForce GTX 1650 Ti.
The Notebookcheck portal received a sample model of the Dell XPS 9510 with an Intel Core i7-11800H processor that has an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti integrated. Some experts remember Dell's XPS series of laptops for not having good CPU performance. In the case of this laptop, it has been noticed more and the extremely demanding integrated GPU that it has makes it even worse than a model with a much lower-end GPU.

Lots of GPUs but little CPU in the case of the Dell XPS 9510
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti laptop GPU is based on the GA107 GPU with 2560 CUDA cores and 4GB of GDDR6 memory. The TGP range for this model is 35 to 80W. From the looks of it, NVIDIA has forced laptop manufacturers to display TGP and clock information along with each implementation of their RTX 30 laptop GPU to avoid misleading advertising that would lead customers to buy much slower GPUs than they would. provided. The official TGP for the RTX 3050 Ti in the Dell XPS 9510 is 45W, but as seen in the tests to which the laptop has been subjected by the Notebook portal, this data does not say much for practical purposes.
According to Notebookcheck, the Dell XPS 9510 laptop already offers one of the slowest GPU implementations for RTX 3050 Ti laptops with an official 45W TGP. But this value seems to drop almost instantly to 35W in games, resulting in a performance loss of almost 20%.
The RTX 3050 Ti performance in the Dell XPS 9510 is outperformed by Dell's XPS 9500 equipped with a GTX 1650 Ti GPU in games such as The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. Performance does not improve when enabling Dell's Ultra Performance profile through its 'Power Manager' software.
