Mobile Workstation for 3D and Video Professionals

The Dell Precision M6700 pairs an Intel Core i7-3740QM quad-core processor with 32 GB of DDR3L memory and an NVIDIA Quadro K3000M graphics card carrying 4 GB of DDR5 video memory. A 17.3 inch Full HD anti-glare panel running at 1920 x 1080 provides a colour-accurate canvas for CAD and content creation. Storage is split between a 256 GB SSD for the operating system and a 1 TB hard drive for project files. Windows 10 Pro 64-bit is pre-installed.

Suited to Engineers and Creatives Needing

This configuration targets users who rely on ISV-certified Quadro drivers for SolidWorks, CATIA or Adobe workflows and who value the numeric keypad and 240 W adapter for sustained loads. Buyers who want more storage capacity or a higher-resolution display should look at other models. The 3rd-generation Core architecture also means it will not satisfy workloads requiring newer instruction-set extensions or modern memory bandwidth.

Quadro K3000M with 4 GB DDR5 Decides Professional

The discrete NVIDIA Quadro K3000M GPU with 4 GB of dedicated DDR5 memory is the single specification that determines whether this workstation can handle your professional 3D viewport and GPU-accelerated render tasks. Integrated Intel HD Graphics 4000 handles desktop compositing, but only the Quadro delivers certified OpenGL performance for engineering applications. If your software demands more video memory or a newer GPU architecture, this unit will not meet the requirement.

Questions about this item

How long can the i7-3740QM sustain 3700 MHz Turbo Boost before heat forces it down?

The i7-3740QM raises single-core speed to 3700 MHz via Turbo Boost, but sustained all-core loads will drop clocks once the 240 W adapter and cooling reach their thermal limit; expect throttling within minutes under full 8-thread workloads.

What noise and heat should I expect from the 240 W adapter and Quadro K3000M during all-day rendering?

The 240 W brick and dual GPU setup push noticeable heat through the rear vents; fans run audible but not loud, and the chassis stays warm on the left palm-rest during extended 3D tasks.

Which DDR3L SO-DIMM kits are already installed so I know what not to buy again?

This unit ships with 32 GB of DDR3L memory installed across its four slots, so no additional RAM is required unless you plan to replace modules.
