Dell XPS 9520 15.6" FHD+ workstation
The 2022 Dell XPS 9520 is a 15.6-inch laptop built around a 14-core Intel Core i9-12900HK processor that reaches 5 GHz with Turbo Boost. It ships with Windows 11 Home, a non-touch 1920 x 1200 display, and a dedicated Nvidia GeForce RTX 3050 Ti graphics card with 4GB GDDR6 memory. The system includes a 32GB SSD and 4GB of system memory in a black chassis.
Suited to users who prioritise CPU power over
The 14-core processor handles multi-threaded workloads such as code compilation or video encoding, while the dedicated RTX GPU accelerates creative applications. Buyers who need more than 32GB of solid-state storage or more than 4GB of RAM for large datasets or heavy multitasking should look at alternative configurations. The non-touch screen and 802.11ac wireless are fixed specifications.
32GB SSD capacity dictates upgrade planning
The 32GB solid-state drive holds the operating system and a minimal application set, so most users will need to add or replace the drive before installing large software libraries or media projects. This single constraint determines whether the laptop can serve as a primary workstation without immediate hardware changes.

Questions about this item
What are the exact dimensions of the 15.6 inch chassis so I can choose a sleeve?
The laptop uses a 15.6 inch form factor with a 15.0 inch viewable screen area; the 1920 x 1200 panel sits in a precision-cut aluminium and carbon-fibre body finished in black.
How do I reinstall Windows 11 Home on the 32 GB SSD without losing the recovery partition?
Boot from a Microsoft Media Creation Tool USB, choose Custom install, select the 32 GB SSD partition labelled OS, and keep the hidden recovery partition untouched so Dell SupportAssist can still restore factory defaults.
When should I plan to replace the 4 GB GDDR6 video memory on the RTX 3050 Ti?
The 4 GB GDDR6 is soldered to the motherboard and cannot be swapped; replacement only happens if the GPU itself fails, which typically appears as artefacts or no video output after years of use.
