  • Documentation

Q: For the version of this pc with the i7 and the 3050ti what is the display hz?

A: This laptop comes with 165 Hz display refresh rate.

Q: Does the video card come with RAM. If so how much video ram?

A: This system comes with 4GB GDDR6 dedicated video memory for this NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti graphics card.

Q: Are the ssd connectors backwards compatible - meaning the connectors support both 2230 and 2280 type ssd drives?

A: No, in this system, the solid-state drive is secured to the system board by a solid-state drive bracket that is specific to the form factor of the solid-state drive. If you are replacing a solid-state drive, ensure that the new solid-state drive has the same form factor. For example, replace an M.2 2280 solid-state drive only with an M.2 2280 solid-state drive.

Q: I want to max out the storage capacity. Do each of the M.2 slots support 2 TB's each- giving you a total of 4 TB's of storage combined, or is it 1 TB per slot giving you a total of 2 TB's of storage combined? Are M.2 2230/2280 the correct form factors?

A: If the SSD included is of M.2 2230 form factor, 12 Gb is the maximum memory supported. If the M.2 2280 form factor is includded, the storage could be upgraded up to 3 TB.

Q: Can the RAM be expanded to 32GB?

A: Yes according to the spec sheet https://www.dell.com/support/manuals/en-us/g-series-15-5511-laptop/dell-g15-5511-setup-and-specifications/memory?guid=guid-e9d2ea83-38a4-431d-803c-96d63c1dbc34&lang=en-us

Q: Is the keyboard backlit? And if so is it rainbow?

A: Yes, this system comes with an Orange Backlit keyboard with numeric keypad and G-Key.

Q: What parts can you upgrade on this particular model and are any of the components integrated, more specifically the ram, on the motherboard? Can a battery be purchased and then replaced on this model if it was needed? And what are the NVME options?

A: The memory and the storage in this laptop could be upgraded up to 32 GB and 2 TB respectively. These are not integrated. The laptop has two PCIe Gen3 x4 NVMe to support M.2 SSDs. The battery could be replaced, but the cassis has to be removed by a Dell technician within warranty time period.
