DELL Precision M4800 15.6" i7-4810MQ 16GB 256GB SSD 1TB HDD K1100M laptop

Mobile workstation with dual storage

The Dell Precision M4800 is a 15.6-inch mobile workstation built around a 4th-generation Intel Core i7-4810MQ quad-core processor. It ships with 16 GB of DDR3 memory and a 256 GB mSATA SSD paired with a 1 TB 2.5-inch hard drive. The 1920 x 1080 UltraSharp anti-glare display and NVIDIA Quadro K1100M graphics with 2 GB DDR5 video memory target professional CAD and design workflows. Windows 10 Pro is pre-installed on the SSD.

Suits ISV-certified workflows.

This system suits engineers and designers who rely on certified drivers for legacy ISV applications and need both fast boot storage and high-capacity mechanical storage in one chassis. It is not for buyers who require a touchscreen, newer GPU compute APIs, or the bandwidth of a PCIe-based boot drive. The 47-watt processor and 180-watt adapter also limit sustained turbo performance in thermally constrained environments.

Quadro K1100M with 2 GB DDR5 decides fit

The single specification that decides suitability is the NVIDIA Quadro K1100M GPU equipped with 2 GB of DDR5 video memory. This Kepler-based professional card drives the 1920 x 1080 display and supports DirectX 11 and OpenGL 4.x certified drivers for older workstation applications. If your software demands more video memory, newer compute features or a Pascal-or-later architecture, this laptop will not meet the requirement.
