Dell updated its largest XPS clamshells on Thursday to include the latest mobile chips from Intel. Now, 12th-gen "Alder Lake" chips are available in the 17- and 15.6-inch versions of the XPS.
Both the XPS 17 and 15 now have options for an Intel Core i5-12500H or i7-12700H. The former has four performance cores (P-cores), eight efficiency cores (E-cores), and a turbo clock speed of up to 4.5 GHz, while the latter has six P-Cores and eight E-cores and can hit up to 4.7 GHz. To get Intel's highest-end i9-12900HK, which has six P-cores and eight E-cores and can hit 5 GHz, you'll have to get the smaller-screened XPS 15. It'll be made available in the XPS 17, which makes sense, as it's the largest, more expensive XPS, around April 18, a Dell rep told Ars Technica.
The updated XPS 17 and 15 are both available with integrated Intel graphics only, but for more graphical horsepower, you can configure the machines with an Nvidia GeForce RTX 3050 (4GB GDDR6) running at 60 W. The XPS 17 will also include an option for the RTX 3060 (6GB, 60 W) in April, while you can currently get the XPS 15 with an RTX 3050 Ti (4GB, 45 W).
