x15 R2, WD19TBS, 240Hz monitor

What about XPS 15 9570? if i get a WD19TBS, and connect with a 240hz monitor at QHD, will it work? all i need is higher refresh rates

Hi, I would like to say after doing some research the XPS 15 9570 would most likely work with the WD19TBS at QHD, the 240Hz I still have to do some research but I think you should be able to do so since its not a 4K signal but 1440p

Hi!

Thank you so much!

I will go ahead and order it now.. In Mean time, can you please complete your research and let me know? I would be really thankful for your kind help!

Also Please do let me know if its same with X15 R2! (I know for a fact that M15 R7 works with iGPU which doesnt allow G-Sync as well instead of DGPU)

Please do let me know about XPS 9570 & Alienware X15 R2 (3070Ti Model)

I will be connecting only 1 Monitor.

Could you specify what ports you would be using on the monitor? as these are what the connectors on the WD19TBS have:

• Provides up to 130W of Power Delivery
• Integrated Thunderbolt 3 Cable (2.6')
• 1 x Thunderbolt 3 Port
• 2 x USB 3.1 Gen 2 Type-C Ports
• 3 x USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-A Ports
• 1 x HDMI 2.0b | 2 x DisplayPort 1.4
• 1 x Gigabit Ethernet Port
• Supports up to Four Displays
• Supports One 5K and Two 4K Displays
• Windows, Mac, and Linux Compatible

That line One 5K and Two 4K displays makes me think that its possible.

I finished my research and concluded that you can't use the docks to charge the laptop but I found out you can use them to connect displays.

Hi,

1. I will be using separate charger for Laptop.

2. I will be using DP Port to connect to monitor. No Other USB C Ports will be used! May be one or two USD Type A.  And ONLY 1 Monitor (Samsung Odessy G7 32" 2560X1440 240Hz)

I hope this will give me a solid answer from you

Got it. 

Well @yogesh03 I have some exciting news for you!

That means, in Alienware X15 R2 (3070 and 2080Ti) and XPS 15 9570, both will run in 240hz? 

Yes 100%. As displayport supports that.

So I got myself a WD22TB4 and it wasnt working 1440p @240HZ

I am not sure if its a limitation on Intel UHD 630.

But its running 240hz in 1080p. 

Another BIG Problem is that, if i switch to 1440p with 144hz, whole laptop freezes and lags to death!

Will it be same on Alienware x15 R2 (3080 card)? Please advice as I am about to place order tomorrow, on my birthday!

The 3080 should improve performance but I don't get how setting it to a resolution of 1440p at 240hz doesn't work. Could you please send a screenshot of what connectors go to which graphics card in NVIDIA Control Panel? and did you check for any optional updates regarding those two in Windows settings?

They all goto Intel Card.

Hi @yogesh03 !

The iGPU should be able to handle it as it says on intels website that the 12700H at minimum supports 7680 x 4320 at 60hz via DP (DisplayPort 1.4a) which the dock has and are you connecting the laptop to the dock via DP or just Type C and then DP to the monitor from the dock.

I highly apologize for the inconvenice.

Can you close the laptop and use the displays only?. I have a WD19TB and a X17 R2. I can connect two displays but when I close the laptop, the displays switch off. Are you aware of this issue?. Do you know how to solve it?
