Dell XPS 15 9530 RTX 4070 laptop review: Both impressive and underwhelming

Name: Dell XPS 15 9530 RTX 4070
Brand: Dell

50 W GeForce RTX 4070 graphics. Whereas the 2022 XPS 15 topped out at GeForce RTX 3050 Ti graphics, this year's model has upped the ante to a GeForce RTX 4070. As impressive as that may sound on paper, there are significant compromises that users ought to be aware of before pulling the trigger on the latest 2023 model.

Laptop XPS Raptor Lake Geforce

The XPS 15 9530 is an internal update over the 2022 XPS 15 9520. The 12th gen Alder Lake-H CPUs and Nvidia Ampere GPUs on last year's model have been upgraded to 13th gen Raptor Lake-H and Ada Lovelace options, respectively. Otherwise, the chassis and display options remain identical year-over-year and so we recommend checking out our existing reviews on the XPS 15 9520, 9510, and 9500 to learn more about the physical features of the model.

Our specific review unit is a higher-end configuration with the Core i7-13700H, RTX 4070, 32 GB RAM, 1 TB SSD, and glossy 3.5K OLED touchscreen for approximately $2800 USD. Other SKUs are available with the faster Core i9-13900H, slower RTX 4060, or lower resolution matte FHD+ panel. Note that this is one of the very few laptops with a 50 W GeForce RTX 4070 compared to 100 W or more on most other laptops with the same GPU.

Competitors include other high-end 15-inch multimedia laptops like the Asus Zenbook Pro 15, MSI Summit E15, Gigabyte Aero 15, or the Razer Blade 15 Studio.

Communication

An Intel AX211 comes standard for Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.2 support. We're able to connect to our Asus AXE11000 Wi-Fi 6 network without issues, but the laptop would strangely not recognize or connect to our 6 GHz Wi-Fi 6E network. Other Wi-Fi 6E-enabled devices like the Pixel 7 Pro could recognize and connect to our 6 GHz network without any problems.

Webcam — 1 MP Resolution Is Getting Embarassing

The latest XPS 15 *still* relies on a low resolution 1 MP/720p webcam with no privacy shutter despite its >$2000 USD asking price. Competing models like the HP Spectre x360 16 or Razer Blade series have already moved on to 2 MP or even 5 MP sensors. Needless to say, picture quality is very blurry on an otherwise beautiful OLED display. At least IR is supported.

Dell says the low resolution webcam is a consequence of having one of the narrowest bezels on a laptop. A higher resolution webcam would purportedly thicken the bezel.

Maintenance

Accessories and Warranty

Dell still includes in a handy USB-C to USB-A and HDMI adapter inside every retail box which we appreciate. The usual one-year limited manufacturer warranty applies.

Display — 3.5K Samsung OLED Still Looks Amazing

Dell utilizes the same Samsung 156XG01 OLED panel on its 2023 and 2022 XPS 15 models for a similar viewing experience between them. This isn't necessarily a bad thing as the Samsung panel still offers both full DCI-P3 colors and a sharp picture, but we would love to see 90 Hz or faster panel options in the future. Certain Asus VivoBook models, for example, ship with 120 Hz OLED panels for a much smoother visual experience.

The panel is decently calibrated out of the box, but users can still apply our calibrated ICM profile above to improve color accuracy slightly. Dell has finally integrated the various color profiles like sRGB, AdobeRGB, DCI-P3, and others onto the Windows Display menu for easier profile switching.

Display Response Times

ℹ

Display response times show how fast the screen is able to change from one color to the next. Slow response times can lead to afterimages and can cause moving objects to appear blurry (ghosting). Gamers of fast-paced 3D titles should pay special attention to fast response times.

↔ Response Time Black to White
1.94 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↗ 0.97 ms rise
1.94 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↘ 0.97 ms fall
The screen shows very fast response rates in our tests and should be very well suited for fast-paced gaming. In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.1 (minimum) to 240 (maximum) ms. » 6 % of all devices are better. This means that the measured response time is better than the average of all tested devices (21.5 ms).
↔ Response Time 50% Grey to 80% Grey
1.68 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↗ 0.8 ms rise
1.68 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↘ 0.88 ms fall
The screen shows very fast response rates in our tests and should be very well suited for fast-paced gaming. In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.2 (minimum) to 636 (maximum) ms. » 4 % of all devices are better. This means that the measured response time is better than the average of all tested devices (33.8 ms).

Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)

ℹ

To dim the screen, some notebooks will simply cycle the backlight on and off in rapid succession - a method called Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) . This cycling frequency should ideally be undetectable to the human eye. If said frequency is too low, users with sensitive eyes may experience strain or headaches or even notice the flickering altogether.

Screen flickering / PWM detected

239 Hz

The display backlight flickers at 239 Hz (worst case, e.g., utilizing PWM) .

The frequency of 239 Hz is relatively low, so sensitive users will likely notice flickering and experience eyestrain at the stated brightness setting and below.

In comparison: 53 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 17933 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 3846000) Hz was measured.

Flickering is present on all brightness levels much like the OLED panels on other laptops. We're able to record frequencies of 240 Hz from 0 to 52 percent brightness and 60 Hz from 53 percent to 100 percent brightness.

Performance — 13th Gen Intel + GeForce RTX 4070 Graphics

Testing Conditions

We set our unit to Performance and dGPU modes prior to running the benchmarks below. Advanced Optimus or MUX is not supported.

Processor

CPU performance is a mixed bag due to the limited Turbo Boost potential of the system. For example, our Core i7-13700H CineBench R15 xT score would be 19 percent higher than the i7-12700H in last year's XPS 15 9520. After several benchmark loops, however, the performance gap would narrow and come much closer to last year's processor. The smaller MSI Stealth 14 Studio, which utilizes the same Core i7-13700H CPU as our XPS 15 9530, would exhibit similar throttling behavior.

Upgrading to the Core i9-13900H configuration is expected to boost performance by 15 to 25 percent. However, the benefits might be more minimal as Core i9 CPUs tend to throttle more sharply on thin multimedia laptops like the XPS 15.

Storage Devices — Up To Two PCIe4 Drives

Our review unit sports an SK Hynix PC801 PCIe4 x4 NVMe SSD instead of the WD SN810 on our older XPS 15 9510 test unit. Performance is generally comparable between the two SSDs, but they fall behind the popular Samsung PM9A1.

Performance sustainability is excellent with no throttling when under stress. It's too bad that PCIe5 SSDs are not offered at checkout.

Dell XPS 15 9530 RTX 4070: Ø6457 (5082.24-6523.03)

GPU Performance — Half The TGP Equals Half The Power

Obviously, graphics performance should be slower than the "average" GeForce RTX 4070 laptop because of the low 50 W TGP target of the XPS 15, but we had no idea by how much. Now that we have a test unit in hand, the deficit can be pretty striking at up to 40 to 50 percent slower than the average our database according to 3DMark benchmarks. It's so bad that even a four year-old RTX 2070 laptop like the HP Omen 15 can perform about the same as our more expensive RTX 4070 XPS 15. If you intend to play a lot of games, then the XPS 15 becomes a poor value proposition.

The good news is that graphics performance is still faster than the RTX 3050 Ti in last year's XPS 15 9520 by about 30 to 35 percent. Thus, there is an appreciable year-over-year boost even though this is easily one of the slowest iterations of the mobile RTX 4070 we've seen.

Interestingly, graphics acceleration when running 3D software tools is much faster than expected relative to the 50 W TGP. Blender Classroom with CUDA acceleration, for example, would complete in just 46 seconds which is only about 25 percent slower than the average RTX 4070 laptop where 100 W or higher TGPs are typical. The older RTX 3050 Ti would take almost 2.5x longer on the same benchmark. Content creators will therefore benefit the most when choosing the 2023 XPS 15 over older models.

Gaming Performance

Despite the disappointing RTX 4070 performance mentioned above, the system can still run any current title on medium-high settings at 1080p and 60 FPS. Anything higher, however, and the GPU begins to struggle. Demanding titles like Cyberpunk 2077 or Returnal would each dip to the 40 FPS range if settings are above medium resulting in noticeable screen tearing without G-Sync assistance. Most games aside from undemanding multiplayer ones like DOTA 2 can barely run in the native 3.5K resolution.

Furthermore, performance can be unstable when gaming. Frame rates when idling on Witcher 3 would periodically dip from 50 FPS to 40 FPS before jumping back up to 50 FPS for seemingly no reason. Such behavior suggests poor prioritization of background activities.

Another unfortunate disadvantage is that frame rates at very low settings can sometimes be slower than the frame rates at higher settings. This was observed when running Cyberpunk 2077 and Returnal at low 1080p settings where frame rates would be consistently slower than medium 1080p settings even after repeat testing. Such behavior suggests a PSU limitation and consequent power struggle between the CPU and GPU when both are stressed.

Emissions

System Noise — Not Too Loud For The Size

Fan noise when browsing the web or streaming video tends to hover around 24 dB(A) against a silent background of 23 dB(A) to be almost inaudible. Introducing higher loads like games would induce a fan noise between 40 to 45 dB(A) which is quieter than the Asus Zenbook Pro 15 or Gigabyte Aero 15 under loads. The XPS 15 is generally not as loud as other high-performance 15-inch multimedia laptops.

Temperature

Surface temperatures are relatively warm at around 30 C even when simply idling on desktop due to the high power density of the thin chassis. This isn't any different from last year's model, however, since the power envelope has remained roughly the same. Skin temperature can feel uncomfortably warm at 45 C on the bottom side of the chassis when running demanding loads like games.

AC adapter reaches over 35 C when gaming for long periods

Stress Test — High CPU Temperatures

The CPU would boost to 3.7 GHz and 96 W for only a second or two when initiating Prime95 stress. This would steadily drop to just 2.7 GHz and 55 W because of the very high core temperature of 88 to 100 C when the CPU is fully stressed. In comparison, repeating this same test on the AMD-powered Asus Zenbook Pro 15 UM535Q would result in a cooler core temperature of just 76 C. The higher-than-average core temperature on the Dell system isn't surprising as it is a common characteristic of the XPS 15 series. Upgrading to the Core i9 configuration may therefore bring just slight benefits at best since our Core i7 configuration is already skirting the 100 C ceiling.

When running Witcher 3 to represent typical gaming loads, the GPU would stabilize at 1590 MHz core, 1375 MHz memory, 70 C, and 43 W against a 50 W target. Repeating this same test on the larger Uniwill GM6PX7X IDX with a more powerful 130 W RTX 4070 would result in a stable core clock, memory clock, temperature, and GPU power of 2370 MHz, 2125 MHz, 73 C, and 100 W, respectively. The performance differential between the 50 W and 100+ W RTX 4070 is very clear in this example.

Surprisingly, running on battery power does not impact performance which is rare for any GeForce RTX-powered laptop. A 3DMark 11 test on batteries would return Physics and Graphic scores of 20751 and 24569 points, respectively, compared to 18112 and 24229 points when on mains.

Energy Management — Core H and GeForce RTX On USB-C

Power Consumption

Power consumption is generally higher when compared to last year's model. When idling on desktop at the lowest settings, for example, the XPS 15 9530 would consume about 20 W compared to just 5 to 6 W on the older XPS 15 9520. When gaming, consumption would be about 25 percent higher meaning the extra performance over the older RTX 3050 Ti doesn't exactly come free.

We're able to record a temporary maximum draw of 133 W from the small-medium (~14.3 x 6.6 x 2.2cm) 130 W AC adapter. The XPS 15 is one of the first laptops sporting both a Core H-series CPU and GeForce RTX 4070 GPU to be powered solely by USB-C. This certainly has its advantages in terms of portability and versatility, but performance and charging can take a hit due to the limited power envelope. Charging from empty to full, for example, is slower than usual at around 2.5 hours and this will be even slower if running demanding loads simultaneously.

Thankfully, the battery does not slowly drain when gaming or running demanding loads unlike what we observed on older XPS 17 models.

Consumption would spike to 133 W for just a couple of seconds when initiating Prime95 stress before falling and stabilizing at 81 W because of the limited Turbo Boost potential of the system

Battery Life — Slightly Shorter, But Not Bad

Runtimes are generally shorter than on last year's model which isn't surprising as the 13th gen Intel CPU and GeForce 40 GPU are under similar power envelopes as their respective predecessors. We're able to record 8 hours of real-world WLAN usage or 40 minutes shorter than on the 2022 XPS 15. It's still good even though it's a bit shorter than competing models like the Asus Zenbook Pro 15.

Battery life can be extended by displaying darker colors instead of white on the OLED configuration as detailed here. We expect the lower resolution IPS SKU to provide longer runtimes than what we've recorded here.

Verdict — Sacrificing Performance For Thinness

In review: Dell XPS 15 9530 RTX 4070. Test unit provided by Dell

The Core i7-13700H and GeForce RTX 4070 are typically reserved for bigger gaming laptops like the Asus ROG Strix G18 or Aorus 15X ASF each with bulky 200+ W power bricks. Cramming them into low-power thinner designs like the XPS 15 can certainly work, but performance inevitably takes a major hit. In this case, TGP has been cut by half or more for poor performance-per-dollar. If you plan on running both graphics editors and games equally, then a dedicated gaming machine like the Alienware x15 will handily outperform our XPS 15 by quite the margin even if configured with the same CPU and GPU.

The performance hit when running graphics editors is not as severe as the hit to gaming performance when compared to larger laptops with higher TGP targets. This is largely because even a 50 W RTX 4070 carries the same number of CUDA cores for acceleration as a 100+ W version. The XPS 15 9530 therefore excels at content creation with only the occasional gaming. It's an Nvidia Studio laptop, after all.

The XPS 15 9530 is the content creation laptop to own if you want to balance performance with portability. Don't expect it to perform like most other laptops with the same GPU, however.

There are plenty of changes we'd like to see on future models. Firstly, newer display options with 90 Hz or 120 Hz refresh rates would go a long way to improving the user experience. Secondly, the 720p webcam is abysmal as it feels unchanged from even a decade ago. Thirdly, a revised cooling solution potentially with liquid metal could help increase Turbo Boost performance without needing to thicken the design. And lastly, the DPC issues, frame skips, and frame drops should certainly be looked at especially for a flagship laptop geared towards content creation. There is a lot to like about the XPS 15 especially if you value its MacBook Pro-like portability, but the processors inside are outgrowing the chassis and feeling somewhat constrained because of it.

Price and Availability

The XPS 15 9530 is not yet widely available through retailers at the time of writing. The best chance of securing a model would be through Dell directly. Prices start at $2250 USD for the base configuration up to $4700 if fully configured with maximum storage and RAM.

After graduating with a B.S. in environmental hydrodynamics from the University of California, I studied reactor physics to become licensed by the U.S. NRC to operate nuclear reactors. There's a striking level of appreciation you gain for everyday consumer electronics after working with modern nuclear reactivity systems astonishingly powered by computers from the 80s. When I'm not managing day-to-day activities and US review articles on Notebookcheck, you can catch me following the eSports scene and the latest gaming news.
