UPDATE TO THUNDERBOLT 3 PCI-E X2
THANKS TO JAMES McMINN FOR THE CLARIFICATION!
“The port itself still runs at 40Gbits/s – this is not affected by the number of PCI-e lanes. Thunderbolt acts as an interface for many different types of signal, PCI-e data being only one of them. A Single PCI-e lane runs at 8Gbit/s, so 4 lanes can provide upto 32Gbit/s, whilst 2 lanes can provide 16Gbit/s. DisplayPort data itself is provided on a different set of dedicated display lanes, and is capable of carrying up to 34Gbit/s worth of DisplayPort data – enough to power 2 4k displays at 60Hz. A Thunderbolt 3 port will happily supply a full 40Gbit/s using data from any number of sources, be it PCI-e, DisplayPort or USB, so long as the combined total stays below the maximum of 40Gbit/s that the port is able to handle.
For example, a Thunderbolt 3 port may supply 32Gbit/s of DisplayPort data, and an additional 8Gbit/s of PCI-e data, for a total of 40Gbit/s, or it could provide 16GBit/s of PCI-e bandwidth, 16Gbit/s of DisplayPort data – it doesn’t really matter as long as the total bandwidth is kept under the limits for each set of lanes and the total limit (40Gbit/s) for the TB 3 port.
Whilst the 2 PCI-e lanes may be a limiting factor for eGPU usage in the future, it currently has little impact unless the internal display is being used, and will not affect how many displays the XPS 15 can handle.”

Is it worth it in 2019
Would this laptop be good for animation programs like Zbrush and Maya???
if you bought this laptop and have throttling issues check this fix https://miniurl.pw/J3rmv9 WORKS!!!
let be honest, you clicked on this video again to watch the intro
Is there a way to fix the ghosting this monitor have (FHD version)?
Mine's still working great
Is this still a good laptop?
Hi Dave,
After a bit more than a year's usage, my laptop's charger is not working anymore. Have you came across issue like this? Do you have any solution? It seems that laptop does not recognise the charger so it turns it off. It kind of starts to charge and then stops. Is it the charger or laptop itself?
I got one of these. You can still get 3M skins for this laptop and they look amazing
Be warn the track pad starts rising if the battery is overheating. No big deal since now Im using a wireless mouse instead. The 4K display can get dimmer over three years. I see some gamma problems but its still a great display. The display is from Sharp thats why it has some issues after a few years.
How is travelling with this?
Where's your fingerprint sensor?
Sir which version of this leptop ia latest nowadays. Is this good for 4K video editing. ??
Great video. Thanks.
Does it have Bluetooth
9560 owner for 3 years and still running strong ! πͺπ½
Watching this 3.5 years later on my 9560, still a beast laptop, game on it every day π Worth Every penny
Dont buy this latop, just a waste of money. Thermals are way too bad.
Worth buying this for 850$ in August 2020?
Can anyone help me out? Would this be good for a beginner graphic designer? Iβm interested in getting this for my boyfriend. I donβt know much about computers and just want to know if this will run well while heβs working on commissions and such.
still rocking my 9560 and @D2D the undervolting vid was the best help ever β€
I am getting a refurbished Dell XPS 6560 for 600 bucks so should I go for it or not
hello, which is the touch pen for this computer to draw_?
My issue is the lack of USB ports. Once I put in the HDMI to the monitor and my USB mic and my webcam… I am out of ports. I would have rather a regular USB over the C type.
Ngl that intro made me buy one
khaby lame
I just wonder how can I replay the SSD?
Is this laptop is relevant in 2021? I want to get it 2nd hand
I would happily use this even 3 years later!
