I would go with Fedora or OpenSUSE latest if you want RH like on that hardware. There is nothing that unstable about them other than losing updates and maintenance after 2 years and having to upgrade. Another choice is to run Virtualbox on the Windows that shipped with the laptop and run a CentOS 7 virtual guest. If you REALLY need RHEL (CentOS) running on the hardware I would return the XPS and get a Lattitude or Precision laptop. They have much better Linux support as they tend to be more stability oriented rather than latest and greatest hardware.
