Checked the Dell Website for this and found out the below info: "Vapor Chamber and Element 31 thermal interface material only available on NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 4050 and above."
So, this model should have it.

Reviews are pretty bad on this one. Any anecdotal feedback? Some say it gets to 93+ degrees on a light load.

Are you referring customer reviews on Amazon or any actual reviews?

Both Amazon and Google. Large percentage claim there are issues with heat.

P.s. I love how I get thumbs down for providing information and asking a question

Amazon reviews on that page are kind of mixed as they clubbed all reviews from different models like Dell G16 which you can select on that page .
Notebookcheck.net has reviewed the Intel version with HX CPU which consumes far more power and as per the review, it was slightly warmer but nothing extraordinary. Check that

Not the best quality. I bought the g15 about nov 2021, I already had the motherboard replaced. Just last week, I had the motherboard have another issue not detecting the ssd drives(I added one in). I had to buy a usb adapter m2 and put the drive inside to boot off of. I would not recommend.

Can someone recommend if a ASUS TUF is better or a different brand is more reliable in quality?
I want to spend under $1000.

The version you bought is 2 years old series, not same as this one. Now if you want other brand, Asus TUF 2023 model is a pretty solid laptop the RTx 4070 model with 12700H and 16GB DDR4, goes on regular sale on Best Buy around 1k mark.
