Funnily enough, I had wanted to purchase my Dell XPS 9570 (15") without dgpu, but they only offered it for their 13" model.
Until several months after release, support for the nvidia card was spotty on Ubuntu/Fedora so it would suck up power without it being used. It's better now, but my workflow doesn't really need a dgpu, and the igpu is enough to watch 1080p videos (probably not 4K, though).
I have the T495, that has the Vega 10 amdgpu.
While it is builtin with the cpu, It performs pretty decently. After proper configuration, I was able to get 20FPS in Shadow of the Tomb Raider, at max settings, on Linux.
