The Dell G5 5590 (RTX 2060) Gaming Laptop offers good value for the price, with its Intel i7 CPU, NVIDIA RTX 2060 graphics, and 16GB of memory. The design is mostly made of plastic, but the build quality is good, and the laptop is lightweight for a 15-inch model. The 15.6 inch 60Hz IPS screen has a matte finish and offers decent color accuracy, but the brightness may be a bit dim, and the color gamut is on the lower side. The keyboard has blue backlighting and can be upgraded to an RGB keyboard. The touchpad works well and doesn't have the double press issue. The laptop has a variety of ports, including USB, Thunderbolt 3, HDMI, and an SD card slot. It has good storage performance with its 512GB NVMe SSD. The laptop's battery life is good for general use, but it can suffer during gaming, and the laptop runs hot under sustained CPU load. The gaming performance is good, but the laptop can suffer from thermal throttling, which can be improved by undervolting the CPU. Overall, the Dell G5 5590 (RTX 2060) Gaming Laptop offers solid performance and some nice features, but it also has issues with thermals and screen brightness.

The gaming performance is good, but the laptop can suffer from thermal throttling, which can be improved by undervolting the CPU.
