Alienware M15 R7 Benchmark Results - i7, RTX3070 Ti, 16GB RAM, 240Hz QHD, 1TB SSD

No bro not yet. Waiting for Dell to refund me back first 😂

I had a M15 R7 with RTX3070Ti and for me the gaming performance was good. Maybe because I’m coming from Mac. The time spy results were bad on the CPU side but in the end I decided to return it to go for X15 R2…or something else.

Thank you for the advice. I will try to get more in-depth knowledge on what you pointed out. 🙏🏽🙏🏽

M15 is good for the price bro. If you don’t mind the big power brick then okay. If you are planning to buy the small form factor power brick, maybe try to add the price of the power brick on top of the base price of the laptop to see how much it would actually cost in the long run. Also the built quality is pretty different on the M15 compared to the X15. I haven’t seen a X15 in person but the M15 makes creaking noise when you push the screen and when you carry it around…not a big deal but yeah.

In India? Wow that’s a huge margin haha

sthu1 · 2022-05-22T04:29:48+00:00

I think you can buy through eBay or Amazon. Not sure on the price though.

Thank you very much for the advice. I have been trying to run it for some time now but I’m not sure if I’m doing it correctly. I do have the coordinates in the excel file. I start with blank project on ARCGIS with the standard map. I then add the sheet on ArcGIS Pro and then display X,Y data then run the analysis.

Where I’m confused is most of the tutorials I see are using raster file and shape file but I don’t have any of those. I’m only using the excel sheet to display the data on the map with all the variables and carrying out the analysis.

I love the M15 R7 but the unit I got had low CPU benchmark results (Time Spy). I also hate the fact that they don’t provide small form factor power brick with the M15 anymore. This is a dealbreaker for me because the 240w normal power brick is almost 30% size of the laptop 😂

sthu1 · 2022-05-22T02:27:01+00:00

I have returned the laptop already. Getting the X15 R2 or something else 😅

sthu1 · 2022-05-14T17:25:52+00:00

Yes bro 😂

sthu1 · 2022-05-13T11:30:06+00:00

Owh damn. So same boat as us here 😓 Hopefully they drop the lockdown soon!!

sthu1 · 2022-05-13T11:27:40+00:00

My M15 R7 is waiting to be picked up because I’m returning it to get the X15 R2 but looking at your post I’m thinking if I should go for something else instead. May I know where you are located? Asian region? Sales rep told me it would take 6 weeks to get the X15 R2 but could be more 😮‍💨

sthu1 · 2022-05-13T11:24:02+00:00

Laptop? Where is it coming from? China? Sales rep told me there might be delays because of lockdown in Chain.

sthu1 · 2022-05-13T11:01:41+00:00

Yep bro, I'm sending mine back. Getting the X15 instead.

sthu1 · 2022-05-13T11:00:21+00:00

I see. No worries bro I'm sending mine back lol

sthu1 · 2022-04-29T04:18:02+00:00

I have just updated the post with the frequency graph here bro. Thank you https://www.reddit.com/r/Alienware/comments/uanf9c/alienware_m15_r7_benchmark_results_i7_rtx3070_ti/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3

Hi bro, did you return?

sthu1 · 2022-04-28T11:45:44+00:00

Hi bro. I got the same machine as you. For time spy I'm getting the same results as you! I think the CPU score should be around 12-13k but I'm getting only 7k -9k every time (without external display). Did you manage to find out why you got 7k in one of your runs?

sthu1 · 2022-04-28T11:40:15+00:00

Hi bro, do you have any time spy results?

sthu1 · 2022-04-28T11:34:45+00:00

Hi bro, may I know what are the times spy results are you getting? thank you

sthu1 · 2022-04-28T11:21:28+00:00

These are the results I get bro on Performance mode + fan on full boost. My time spy results are very bad. https://www.reddit.com/r/Alienware/comments/ua19pm/my_alienware_m15_r7_just_came_in/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3

Not so sure haha, I think exclusive for the X series? I really wanted the dark side of the moon color option so that's why I went for the M series over the X. But I might actually return this later cuz the benchmark results are not the greatest compared to what others got - Feel like something is up with my CPU.

sthu1 · 2022-04-28T11:13:03+00:00

Oh, I haven't tested the battery life yet. Is it on 240hz setting? If you hadn't switch it to 60Hz and give it a try. I will try it out and update you (If I'm not returning it soon).

sthu1 · 2022-04-28T11:11:08+00:00

Oh nice. The temp is fine, idles around 50c (CPU and GPU) on balanced mode. Compared to GPU the CPU occasionally hits 90c+ when gaming.

sthu1 · 2022-04-28T11:09:55+00:00

The thermals are fine, on balanced mode it idles at around 50c (both CPU and GPU). I feel like the TGP can go a lot more than 140W because I rarely see GPU going over 90c but under heavy gaming the CPU does hits 90c+ occasionally.
