According to XPS 15 9530 specifications, that laptop requires a 130-watt adapter. You have an i9 CPU and Nvidia graphics, which have high power requirements. A lesser-power adapter will cause the system to slow down, and if it's too low can be harmful. Also, a non-Dell adapter or hub delivering power may not allow for 130-watt delivery, again causing the system to slow down and possibly the battery will not charge.
Hello everyone, I'm ordering XPS 15 9530 with the followings configurations: 13th gen I-932 gb RamNvidia GeForce 4060 8MB GDDR6.1 TB SSD130 watts A/C Adapter. I'm looking for a (non-Dell) usb-c hub with power delivery. Many of the hub with power delivery has wattage much less than 130 watts such as 60 watts. When looking for a hub with power delivery how important is it to get one with 130 watts? Will a lower wattage hub work? I know that I can get a non-PD hub plug into one usb-c port and plug the A/C adapter that come with the laptop into another usb-c port. Just trying to see the option if I decide to get the usb hub with power delivery what is the wattage specs should I get. Also any recommendation on usb hubs would be greatly appreciated. (something around low $100 range) Thanks
