15 R3, charger?

Hi everyone

I bought a used laptop Alienware 15 R3 from eBay. Specs =

i5-6300HQ
1060

The laptop came with 90W genuine Dell charger. Is this charger OK for this 15 R3? Because I see on Dell web or other websites 180W or 240W? Should I replace this charger?

Thanks a lot for your/any answers.

That 90W AC power adapter will not work. That AC adapter part number V3KCV was only sold with Vostro and Latitude laptops.

15 R3 validated AC power adapters. Search the web for the part numbers =

XM3C3 330W Delta
F4XHP 240W Delta
FWCRC 240W Delta
J211H 240W Delta
8KRFN 240W Flextronic
FHMD4 240W Flextronic
0MFK9 240W Liteon
3KWGY 240W Liteon
3XYY8 180W Chicony
45G4G 180W Delta
74X5J 180W Delta
WW4XY 180W Delta
DW5G3 180W Flextronic
MHP9C 180W Flextronic
47RW6 180W Liteon

It will work but charge more slowly. The genuine Dell adapters here are 180W and if you type in your service tag number it will confirm compatibility. I would replace it as the specs call for 180 or 240.
