Why you should buy the Dell XPS 17

This particular Dell XPS 17 has so much great hardware that it’s perfect for content creation, working away, or even gaming. It has a 13th-generation Intel Core i9-13900H processor along with a near ridiculous 64GB of memory. While many machines have 16GB and we’re impressed when we see 32GB, this one doubles our hopes and ensures it will fly with whatever your plans may be. It also has 1TB of SSD storage space. Ensuring this is a high-end machine with few limitations, there’s also an Nvidia GeForce RTX 4080 graphics card with 12GB of dedicated VRAM so there’s no game you can’t play on it. That won’t change for a long time as this is a laptop built to last.

The only thing that stops the Dell XPS 17 from being one of the best gaming laptops is that its screen only has a standard 60Hz refresh rate which isn’t ideal for fast-moving games. It is a great screen though as it’s a 17-inch UHD+ one with 3840 x 2400 resolution and 500 nits of brightness. It’s also a touchscreen if you happen to want to be more tactile as you work.

Power is everything here but the Dell XPS 17 knows how to harness it as it has the Dell performance app which means you can tweak things on the fly, such as switching to a quiet mode or going all in with an ultra-performance mode. An advanced thermal design means the laptop stays cool and there are improved skin temperatures when you place it on your lap. Things like these add up to remind you why Dell is one of the best laptop brands around.

The Dell XPS 17 also somehow manages to be smaller than most as Dell has squeezed its 17-inch screen into a 15-inch form factor. That makes it easier to carry around than some of the best laptops while still packing a punch where it counts.

A supremely powerful and attractive laptop, the Dell XPS 17 usually costs $4,049. Right now though, you can buy it from Dell and save $1,100, dropping the price to $2,949. This is a fantastic deal for a high-end laptop that is built to last. Check it out for yourself by clicking the button below.

Foreign influence campaigns don’t necessarily need to build their own fake news sites anymore. In this case, an Iran-based operation got AI-generated articles into real publications.

In its report on the “Bogus Bylines” campaign, OpenAI says it identified nearly 100 articles published or syndicated across roughly a dozen outlets worldwide. The articles focused on the US-Iran conflict. OpenAI couldn’t identify the specific actor behind the operation.
