Dell Precision M6400 Covet Mobile Workstation

| October 20, 2008 | 3 Comments

The Dell Precision M6400 Covet Mobile Workstation is a serious piece of machinery, featuring an orange coat of paint and options to die for. For $3,859 you can get an entry-level M6400 Covet, but you can blow that price out of the water once you add options like an Intel Core 2 Quad QX9300 processor ($770) dual 500GB hard drives or dual 64GB solid state drives.

Workstation-class graphics are at the heart of the M6400 Covet, with an NVIDIA Quadro FX 3700M with 1GB of memory driving a 17-inch WUXGA (1,920 x1,200) LED-backlit display. The M6400 Covet can be loaded with up to 16GB of RAM.

The Dell Precision M6400 comes with Vista Business or Vista Ultimate.

    This is a dream machine! My configuration has the Extreme Quad Q9300, 8GB of RAM and 2 hard disks (320GB+200GB FFS 7200). The graphics is perfect, I have not seen anything like this. I have two precision workstations at work (690+490), but this thing is a beast! I do molecular modeling and both computational power and graphics are superb. Yes, it is heavy, but still portable. You won’t take it to the StarBucks for chatting, but you will depend on it in a conference.
    Years in computing and hundreds of machines used before, nothing gave me the excitment of the Covet.
