The 4060 at $800 is good, but the 7840hs has the fastest iGPU out there too, meaning that you can game on low-end and esports games with much less heat.

I tried the 65W charger for my Latitude (the same barrel size) on the G15. The G15 shows that it's charging. I haven't got any alerts/notifications so far. I'm just leaving it on, not doing anything. The charge is slowly increasing. So far the 65W charger is warn, not hot. I know it won't sustain the power usage when the laptop (and GPU) is under heavy load. Just an experiment.
Now I wonder if the 180W will work just fine. I'll be OK if it works at reduced power as long as the charger doesn't get too hot. I'm assuming chargers these days have overheating protection and the laptop will know to work on reduced power if the charger is not up for it?

Also, a question on upgrades: if I decide to keep it and want to upgrade the memory and the SSD, I can just buy a 16G DDR5 of the same speed and put it in, and replace the 512GB M.2 with a 1TB M.2 and transfer the files using the software that comes with the new SSD?
In the support manual for this computer; the 240w is one of the listed chargers for this computer, so it will definitely work for this computer as intended. Any Dell G15 compatible 240w supply will work -- even from even the off-brand companies -- although the quality will differ.
I'm glad to hear the 65W actually fits (I only saw small barrels) charges the computer when its off, but it would wise to remember the 7840HS processor has a TDP of 35-54w and this mobile graphics card is 115w for this. This doesn't include anything else or anything plugged into USB drawing power.
In the user forums, there are people that were complaining the 180w supply was gimping their G15s performance because there wasn't enough power and this from the models previous to this one using the 3060 with a different CPU.
