On the storage front, you get up to 1TB PCIe M.2 SSD while if you opt for dual storage then Intel has a variety of options to choose including HDD + SSD combo while AMD variant has only SSD + SSD combo only. Then there are the chassis 12-zone chassis lighting options on Intel variants while AMD ones have the common 4-zone RGB backlit keyboard.
The biggest difference between both the variant comes when it comes to display options, the Intel ones have options up to 300Hz FHD display with 3000 nits of peak brightness. While the Dell G5 15 5505 SE offers up to 144Hz FHD display with 300 nits of peak brightness.
When it comes to port, the Dell G5 15 has almost similar selections like the Dell G3 15, depending on the type of GPU used, the HDMI 2.0, USB 3.2 Gen 1, USB 2.0, SD card slot, headphone jack remains constant. With GTX 1650 Ti variant you get USB Type-C with DisplayPort along with 1×1 Gigabit Ethernet.
