Why Do Mobile Workstations Even Exist?!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 гру 2020
- Gaming laptops and hardware have come on a LONG way recently, they're now just as if not more powerful than mobile workstations... so who the heck even buys these things now?? Why would you want an Intel Xeon or a Nvidia Quadro when you can get a Core i9 or a GeForce with just as much power? After receiving the Dell Precision 7550, I ask myself the question and proceed to shout at myself about it.

Dear all!! - I have now developed and released the worlds most comprehensive FREE computer benchmarking test for Autodesk Inventor with a global online leaderboard. If you're interested in checking out which workstations are at the top for 3D CAD, see the announcement video here
I don't use my HP Zbook for 3d work. I needed a business grade laptop that could also play games decently well. I just don't like the flashy designs of gaming laptops and the questionable build quality of consumer grade laptops in general. A fantastic keyboard, decent screen, all metal build, great security features, nothing bends or rattles and a 3 year warranty as a standard. HP business support was first rate when my elitebook needed a new battery, which I got in two days.
100% Agree....I work in the IT dept of a large electrical/mechanical engineering company, and we have as a standard kit for our engineers a customised Dell Precision with i9/32GB/Quadro ,,,,,reason is SUPPORT. 4 Year Onsite Next Bus Day warranty , the Quadro card is Officially supported with both Autodesk, Solidworks and ANSYS (and they do support fast when needed). I have had Dell travel to Outback Queensland ( 1000+ kms from major city) to replace a part within 24 hours. Our engineers must have the tools to do the work, and they work in some rather unique and harsh environments....Dell mobile workstations FTW.
I love this kind of videos! I am a student as of right now, however I am part of a AeroDesign team and we run very heavy CFD simulations (at least too overwhelmed for any laptop) so I ended up building my own PC. The media is just too flooded with useless and overly repeated Gaming reviews, but nobody actually talks about what's important when you want to develop work and are at a budget
This is a sort of information you get no where but in TFI. Thanks Mate!
I personally prefer laptop due to running between meeting, engineers love them for showing customers in the field and on site work.
Dell workstations are the worst examples of a workstation actually. They are with regular laptop parts inside.
just because you know the spec of a computer that's does not mean you know about being a cad modeller, I'm a digital modeller that needs a Mobile Workstation, yes they are not as fast or as good as there desk top counterparts, but when I have a short term contract, or sorting out data on the fly in a lock up, where they are milling a clay model, then its invaluable, i'm no IT guru, I have not a clue about inventor, its Alias all the way, P.S. its not always about how fast it is its how you use it ? yes that's a life lesson lol....
Great vid. I work in data and analytics and use a Dell Precision m6800 that is turning 8 (!) years old but still can run everything I throw at it. The build quality is as new. The hinges are still solid and the touchscreen is as new. Of course it was a bit pricey, but, as a proper mobile workstation should, it earned its price back in a few months. Not to mention that it has never let me down, no matter what model I tortured it with. It just works. And this reliability is what differentiates these workhorses from show horses.
These day mobile workstations remain the only laptop that are modular. Non-soldered ram and a lot of m.2 slots. They also more durable than a regular business laptop these days.
Went from M4500 to M4800 to M7530, all bought used. They seem like solid units to me.
Hi,
Thanks man. It boils down to liability which you need to fall on a big corporation like Dell, Invidia instead of one's own small business. Well said mate!
I just discovered your video after finding out my work is issuing me a Dell precision workstation. Not sure the model yet but wanted some background as I know nothing about these. I have extensive knowledge in DIY desktop building and repair but zero on laptops. Glad I found your channel and I greatly appreciate your take on why these exist. Cheers
Most of the time for every hardware, professional
or not, there is a good optimized software, professional or not. Sometimes optimizations are integrated in the software tool you use, for example different viewport optimizations in AutoCad, Maya, 3ds Max, Rhino, Revit, Blender, Archicad, SketchUp, Adobe Suite etc. have some specific improvements for working with detailed geometry or high res effect simulation during modeling process.
Nice video!
What a great video! Subscribed
TBh the best video explaing the existing of these workstations !!! thx buddy
my work gave me a dell precision 7720 to keep because it was “outdated” is has the an i7 and Quadro p3000 gpu with 16 gb ram. it has windows 10 pro but can run heavy duty games at max settings 45-60 fps. but i have the system optimized very well.
Excellent video. Great perspective.
