This makes me think about returning my M15 R5. I can't fully comprehend how this is inferior to a Omen 15 Ryzen/3070 Q at 100 Max wattage.

As an owner of a Dell device (G5 SE) that has seen severe and completely unnecessary performance regressions from some of the later BIOS releases, I don't trust Dell to do these things properly anymore.
Isn't the wisdom (contained even in manuals) that you shouldn't update BIOS unless you are fixing a problem? Also known as don't fix it if it ain't broken. Not to defend Dell. Just saying that willy-nilly BIOS updates might not be the brightest idea.

Dell may have enabled all possible CUDA cores on the Alienware m15 R5, but that has not necessarily improved GPU performance across the board. Instead, activating 10% more CUDA cores can reduce FPS in some games, albeit with reduced GPU temperatures.
