Experience with Dell 7559(GAMING LAPTOP) as of November 2016

    The Dell 7559 has always been the best laptop for me in terms of price to performance basis for me ever since I have seen its specs during the first quarter of 2016. For more or less $800, depending on the date and country you are reading this, you will get:
       
        5th Generation i5 or i7
        GTX 960m
        8GB RAM(single module)
        1TB HDD
        1 Empty Slot for M.2 SSD
        Back lit Keyboard with numpad
        15 inch screen       
       
    It was the only gaming laptop at its price range that comes with a GTX 960m, and the cheapest among the gaming laptops that offers that same video card. The downsides to this laptop are its lack good software like backlit customization, macro customization, and the monitor is may no be accurate enough for graphic artists.

    The Dell 7559 is thin enough to fit in a slim back pack with its power brick. Built quality is decent. But the monitor flexes when you try to apply pressure on opposite sides, the middle part of the keyboard is a bit soft, the rubbery finish may attract stains later on.

    The Dell 7559 that not have trouble maintaining its temperature. This is due to its three vents located at the left side, and two located near the monitor hinges are. After running heavy loads for thirty minutes and idling it after that, it will gradually cools itself. While using its keyboard while gaming, my hands did not feel any discomfort or excessive heat from the laptop. The battery is playable for forty minutes at most when runningTomb Raider 2013, Borderlands 2, Injustice, Deus Ex: Human Revolution, and Witcher 2 on my Dell 7559 with its setup.

    Running most games smoothly in medium to high settings is not a problem with Dell 7559's GTX 960m. In my experience, Nvidia video cards 560, 660, 760 and 960 are the suite spots for gaming if you are not willing to spend more in gaming laptops. The audio is not the best, but has better quality against other laptops with the same price.

    I ran Crysis 2 on high settings and it was able to maintain FPS above 50, and would sometimes drop to 40 or below depending on what's happening on the screen. I played Crysis 2 for more or less 2 hours per session, I did not experienced crashes or issues for the whole game.

    The most ran game by my 7559 is Rainbow Six Siege. I play it mostly on high settings, with anti-aliasing turned down to X2. It does not crashes, heats up, or experience random frame drops.

    The Dell 7559 is not the best gaming laptop available due to its mid range video card and especially now that gaming laptops with new architecture will be available soon. But its price combined with its suite spot specs is what makes it a good choice for gamers willing to game on medium to high settings, and is on a budget.
