Product: Omen 15 dc-0507na
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hello,

 

I just wondered if the Omen 330W charger would improve the performance of my Omen 15 laptop (originally comes with the 200W charger). The voltage of both chargers are the same so it would be safe to use. 

I understand that the Omen 330W charger has a 7.4mm charger port and therefore I would also need to buy an adapter for this to fit my laptop. The reason I ask is because when I’m playing games and putting my laptop under heavy load the 200w charger gets extremely hot. 

Many Thanks,

Larty

I can say NO, in your case, higher (than the standard) wattage charger will definitely charge battery on your machine faster but won't increase its performance.

 

Regards.
