Dell Unveils Alienware m15 Ryzen Edition & The G15 Ryzen Edition Featuring The AMD Ryzen 5000 Cezanne APUs

With AMD's new Cezanne APUs, Dell has implemented them into the Alienware m15 Ryzen Edition R5 and Dell G15 Ryzen Edition alongside the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060. The Dell G15 is an affordable gaming laptop while the Alienware m15 Ryzen Edition R5 is a much more premium laptop.

The chassis of the Alienware m15 Ryzen Edition R5 remains relatively unchanged with a few minor tweaks compared to the m15 R4. The most visible tweak is the change to the back with a slightly different design for the rear exhaust. The hinges have also been slightly tweaked, but there aren't any other noticeable changes.

The blue LED lighting has remained the same as well as the m15 inscription on the back of the laptop. It still keeps that gamer aesthetic with minimal design changes. The keyboard has changed and is now an ultra-low profile mechanical keyboard developed in partnership with Cherry MX.

The Alienware m15 R4 which is the current generation model features the 10th Gen Core series CPUs in combination with GeForce RTX 30 series graphics. The m15 Ryzen Edition R5 takes advantage of the Cezanne APUs which are the Ryzen 5000H series CPUs.

The top model will feature the 8-core, 16-thread Ryzen 7 5900HX which boosts up to 4.6GHz. The graphics will continue to be NVIDIA GeForce RTX 30 series cards and this time around, it features RTX 3070 and the RTX 3060 instead of just the RTX 3060. It comes equipped with up to 32GB of DDR4-3200 memory and a 2TB NVMe SSD. The two 15.6" display options are either a 360Hz FHD display or a 240Hz QHD display.

The next addition to Dell's laptop lineup is the G15 alongside is the G15 Ryzen Edition. This laptop is a more affordable gaming laptop in comparison to the Alienware m15 R5.
