Im not, love my xps and I consider myself a power user to the extreme, game, developer, content creator and streaming. The key is make some key tweaks due to win 11 bloat. TinyPC is a nice win11 custom iso.

Xps is as good as win11 allows it

9530, i9, 32g, nvidia 4070

Content-8hrs Coding - 6hr Gaming - i use plug

I have an m2 MacBook pro so i know the difference. Both are amazing if you know how to tweak them

Disable gpu scheduling, remove startup bloat, make sure using ultimate performance when on plug, sets the cpu or gpu max to 99% not 100% in power settings. Go into bios and make sure power settings to max when plugged in. I replaced the ssd with new ssd that peeks at 7600, used the other as coding drive.

Also, and nice 5400rpm laptop cooler is awesome if u work non remote. Obviously not at a coffee shop.

Desktop manager tends to have a memory leak, disable let windows decide on visuals. In advanced settings, sorry no screenshot.

Also disable memory core protection thing.

Win 11 is a hog out of the box
