Mobile workstation with Quadro graphics

The Lenovo ThinkPad W540 is a 15.6-inch mobile workstation built around a quad-core Intel Core i7-4800MQ processor running at 2.7 GHz. It ships with 32 GB of DDR3 memory and a 2.5-inch 256 GB solid-state drive. The NVIDIA Quadro K1100M GPU provides 2 GB of DDR5 video memory alongside Intel HD Graphics 4600. Windows 10 Pro 64-bit is pre-installed on the SSD.

Suits CAD and ISV users on a legacy platform

Engineers and designers who rely on certified Quadro drivers for older CAD or DCC applications will find the K1100M and the 47-watt quad-core CPU a capable combination. The anti-glare Full HD panel and numeric keypad support long sessions in varied lighting. Buyers who need more than 32 GB of system memory or a faster GPU for modern rendering workloads should look at something else.

Quadro K1100M with 2 GB DDR5 VRAM

The discrete NVIDIA Quadro K1100M card with 2 GB of dedicated DDR5 video memory is the specification that determines suitability for professional 3D workflows. It delivers ISV-certified stability for legacy SolidWorks, AutoCAD and similar packages. If your software demands more video memory or a newer compute architecture, this workstation will not meet the requirement.
