Have. A lot in fact. All the recent AAA titles have 4k. Fallout 4 included.

But 4k gaming require really good GPU just to run the game at smooth 60fps.

Think minimum also need 980Ti or even Titan X.

Some people swear that their UHD 4k screens make a huge difference as compared to regular 1080p but I dont own one so I cannot say. Im not sure if human eye can make out the difference at all for smaller UHD 4k touchscreen like the Dell Inspirion 15 7000 which is at 15"6

4k monitor also very expensive lol.

A lot, haven't really see or read any. Sorry your AAA titles refer to game developer or co?

Have you played before? How is the 4k gaming experience compared to the normal SD or HD etc? Seriously, I have yet seen any 4k content before so quite sua ku.

Sorry if it is a stupid question, is the 4k games downward compatible, meaning can play in degraded resolution?

For inpiron 15 7000, you have to play 1080p and let the GPU upscale to the 4k panel. It will not be as sharp but still playable at good frame rates and mid-high graphics options. The level is same or slightly better than PS4 gaming. Otherwise you can output HDMI to TV to play at native 1080p.

And other otherwise, there is alienware line, with 970m or 980m, and the same aggressive gamer motif like RoG or MSI or Aftershock, but when you bring in Dell pro-support, you can feel safer Dell will insta-service the heat abused gaming laptop better than the rest of them.

At least Dell simplify the upgrading procedure by ALOT with just the removal of back panel without any intimidating warranty seal sticker pasted all over the screw holes....

Many brands i've come across gotta remove almost entire motherboard just to upgrade WiFi card. :s22:

Most i see ok just some ram module is below keyboard those quite tricky as well...

I hope the Dell Inspiron 15 7000 chassis can be easily removed. Some back covereven after removing the screws also damn tricky to remove.

How good was the heat dissipation for Dell Inspiron 15 7000 besides the two fan? Will the keyboard or handrest area of the laptop be hot? Some notebooks damn hot 1 at the wrong area making using them for prolonged hours extremely uncomfortable

having two fans always better than one fan as it will cool down your laptop better and too much heat will degrade your electronic parts/battery

Dell Inspiron 15 7000 while having 2 fans to cool down the system, what about the noise create by the fan? I guess having full blast twin fans will affect the gaming sound experience.

Is the Intel Realsense 3D Technology or Creative F200 camera technology still being discussed here? Oh and Windows 10 with Hello feature still the in thing in this thread of simply.. Just the Dell Inspiron 15 7000 era now?

For those interested here's the comparison of audio quality between Dell's Waves MaxxAudio Pro and HP"s Beats Audio:


I am not a expert in sound system, usually I put my laptop on sofa or bed, the sounds from speakers will be silent if the speakers are below the laptop~ :s22:

for game playing and watching youtube videos, usually I connect to the headphones or earphones, hopefully Dell Inspiron 15 7000 earphones output are as good~

Just a qns. Upscale means not full 4K PANEL right or am i mistaken?

So the Dell Inspiron 15 7000 high end models is full 4k screen or upscale?

looking at the AIO system compared to a normal desktop system which can use water cooling etc. wonder how much heat the AIO system generate and also how it cool the system since the fans can't be that big compared to desktop system.

also during gaming can the AIO handled it well enough to last few hours.

AIO like Dell Inspiron 24 7000 can be made thicker with larger fans, since the whole AIO was not portable or battery powered. Having Intel realsense camera and their fun games, gamers would be using this AIO for 24/7, the air ventilation must be good~

To lower expectations, the sound card in most laptops are very poor, I will use USB audio DAC/Amp if I want to listen music

The panel in 15 7000 is a real 4k high gamut IPS screen. Native 4k content will look very sharp and detailed.

Upscale normally mean the game engine only render 1920x1080 number of pixels and then the graphics cards will add in additional pixels and blend them to make up 4096x2160.

As such, the power needed is lesser but pictures are blurrier.
