Inspiron N5030 power supply

Is it 65W or 90W? One set of specs says

INPUT: 100-240V  50-60Hz
OUTPUT: 19.5V ~3.34A
POWER: 65W

There are two different 65W models and another 90W Which is the correct choice or will either work ?

You need a 65W adapter.  Dell uses adapters from different suppliers (Lite On, Delta, etc.). that may appear different - some are slimmer, etc.  As long as it's a Dell OEM adapter of the right wattage and the power connector fits, it'll work fine.

65W is ok for an i5 or lower with integrated video.

90W is required for i7 or discrete video.

My question is a pretty simple one. That answer is not.
The N5030 has the Intel Pentium T4500 (2.3GHz) CPU and Intel GMA 4500MHD graphics.
And why do the two different 65W adapters look completely different?
