Core hardware and audience
The Dell Inspiron 3520 is a 15.6 inch laptop built around an 11th Gen Intel Core i5 processor with four cores and eight threads. It ships with 8GB of DDR4 memory and a 512GB PCIe NVMe solid state drive. Windows 11 Pro 64-bit is pre-installed, making it ready for office productivity, web browsing and video conferencing out of the box.
Storage and memory headroom
The 512GB NVMe drive provides fast boot times and enough space for a typical document library, email archive and modest media collection. Users working with large video projects, extensive raw photo libraries or multiple virtual machines will reach capacity quickly. The single 8GB DDR4 module handles everyday multitasking smoothly, but heavy browser tabs alongside creative suites will exhaust available memory.
Thermals and power profile
A 65 watt power adapter charges the 3-cell 41 watt-hour battery during typical workloads such as document editing and streaming. The integrated Intel Iris Xe graphics share system memory and generate modest heat, so fan noise stays low in quiet environments. Sustained processor turbo up to 4.2 GHz will increase surface temperatures and fan activity, but the chassis remains comfortable for lap use during normal office tasks.

Questions about this item
Will the 120 Hz panel and HDMI output work with my older monitor that only runs at lower refresh rates?
The 15.6 inch 120 Hz Full HD screen and HDMI port will send a compatible signal to an older display; the external monitor simply runs at its own native rate.
How can I verify the 120 Hz refresh rate is actually active after I set up Windows 11 Pro?
Open Settings > System > Display > Advanced display and confirm the refresh rate dropdown shows 120 Hz for the built-in 15.6 inch panel.
Does the box include the 65 W power adapter or do I need to buy one separately?
The 65 W power supply and 3-cell 41 WHr battery are included; no separate charger purchase is required.
