Dell Precision M6500 Overview

The Dell Precision M6500 notebook has a true, full-size keyboard and superior LED technology in its 17in screen. However, it is heavy, somewhat cumbersome, and pricey.

The laptop market is a strangely fragmented consolidation of different user needs and preferences expressing themselves through a vast array of options. In the midrange - the bulk of the market - are standard workaday laptops that provide knowledge workers what they require plus a few gewgaws for entertainment. Products from Dell, HP, Lenovo, Toshiba, and Apple all battle for the hearts and minds of consumers in this space.

Churning through the SPECviewperf 10 benchmarks really showed off the quality of the image and evenness of the backlight, and it isn't only in specialist applications that this laptop flies. In our 2D benchmarks it scored 1.9, putting it right up there with Lenovo's latest ThinkPad T510 as the fastest laptop we've tested.

Specifying anything but the base model on Dell's website will get you a USB 3 port for your cutting-edge peripherals, and the Precision M6500 battery also features DisplayPort and D-SUB outputs, a smart card reader (standard or contactless) and an optional fingerprint reader for added security. A slot-loading DVD writer comes as standard, with Blu-ray available, and video-conferencers will appreciate the integrated 3.2-megapixel webcam and dual microphones.

Dell supplies a couple of other dedicated buttons as well, though fewer than we usually see on powerful laptops--a simplification that I appreciate. Above the number pad sit a calculator button and three volume control buttons (up, down, and mute). The calculator button, which brings up the Windows calculator, is one of the most useful dedicated buttons I've ever seen on a computer.


The M6500's array of ports is fairly normal: On the left side are two USB 2.0 ports, a 1394 six-pin port, headphone and microphone jacks, an eight-in-one card reader, a PC Card slot, and the DVD+/- RW slot (not a tray). On the right side are two more USB 2.0 ports (one a USB/eSATA combo), a VGA-out port, a display port, an ethernet port, an ExpressCard slot, and a Wi-Fi switch.

Specifications:
  • Core i7 Extreme Edition Quad Core
  • 32GB 1333MHz DDR3 RAM
  • 1GB Nvidia Quadro FX 3800M graphics
  • 500GB HDD or 256GB SSD with optional 2nd & 3rd drives and RAID support
  • Blu-ray or 8x DVDRW
  • 17″ widescreen display
  • USB 3.0 ports
  • Windows 7 Pro 64-bit
The M6500′s specifications are extremely impressive, it features an Intel Core i7-920XM processor, with up to 16GB of RAM (either 1066MHz, 1333MHz or 1600MHz), perhaps most impressively it features NVIDIA Quadro FX 3800M graphics. It is thought that all Windows versions from XP onwards are supported (32-bit and 64-bit) along with Red Hat Linux 5.3 64-bit.

The Dell Precision M6500 battery has numerous connectivity options, including a powered six-pin 1394 connector, four USB 2.0 connections (current quad-core models ship with two USB 3.0 connectors on the left and two USB 2.0 connectors on the right, one of which is a dual USB/eSATA port), and VGA, DisplayPort, RJ45, and audio ports. Additional connectivity options include Bluetooth 2.1 and ultra-wideband (UWB; comselected countries only), wireless LAN, next-generation mobile broadband, GPS, Dell Wireless 1397 802.11g or Dell 1510 802.11 a/g/n 2x3 mini-card, Intel Wireless 5300 802.11 a/g/n 3x3 mini-card, and Dell Wireless 5620 HSPA — EVDO Revision A (selected countries only).

Dell supplies a couple of other dedicated buttons as well, though fewer than we usually see on powerful laptops, a simplification that I appreciate. Above the number pad sit a calculator button and three volume control buttons (up, down and mute).

Dell Computer launched new notebooks which are included in the Dell Precision M6500 mobile workstation. Dell Precision M6500 equipped with a capacity of 32GB 1333MHz DDR3 memory. Other specifications such as CPU Intel Core i7 Extreme Edition & Quad Core, 17-inch LED screen, three options HDD or SSD storage media, Blu-ray drive, graphics card NVIDIA Quadro FX 3800M 1GB DDR3 Graphics, and operating system Windows 7. On the laptop there is also Wireless, Bluetooth, WiMAX, WWAN, Mobile Broadband, GPS, Smart Card Reader, Fingerprint Reader, 3.2MP webcam, and 8-in-1 card reader. Initial price offered valued at $1,899.

On its own, this monster machine carries more systems and expandibility than your average desktop, wraps everything in a stylish metal casing, somehow doesn't neglect to include a keypad, capable audio and pointing subsystems, while it generally leaves most competitors in the dust.

Laptop Dell Precision M6500 also offers minimum configuration with an Intel Core i7 720QM (1.60 GHz) CPU, 2GB RAM, 160GB SATA HDD, ATI FirePro M7740 GPU with 1GB of VRAM and DVD. The Dell Precision M6500 is a laptop 17-inch widescreen TFT LCD with a resolution of 1440 x 900 pixels (WXGA +), four USB 2.0 ports, IEEE 1394, DisplayPort, D-Sub, ExpressCard/54 slot, 8-in – 1 card reader and Ethernet card. It is equipped with 9-cell Dell Precision M6500 laptop battery and Windows XP Professional.

Surprisingly, with such components, the Precision M6500 might heat. We measured 35°C on the right palm in idle and not less than 55°C on full load, which takes not less than 210 W load. Temperatures suggest that the heat dissipation could be improved. The camera becomes unusable many a times and so just do not put it on your knees with 3D. However it is anyway absurd to take almost 4 kg on knees when you have a perfect
device in your office.

It's hard to imagine why someone would need 16GB--let alone 32GB--of RAM on their laptop,but if you're looking for a powerful desktop replacement, the M6500 battery is a good choice. It's quick, smooth, and full of simple elegance--and its only significant drawbacks are its weight and its short battery life.
