DELL Latitude E5430 14.1" laptop i7-3740QM 8GB 512GB SSD

Professional portable workstation

The Dell Latitude E5430 is a 14.1 inch laptop built for business users who need a quad-core processor and solid-state storage in a silver chassis. It ships with Windows 10 Professional 64-bit already installed and activated. The integrated Trusted Platform Module security chip helps protect credentials and encryption keys.

Upgrade from dual-core or hard-drive systems

Replacing an older dual-core notebook or a machine still running a mechanical hard drive with this quad-core i7-3740QM and 512 GB SATA SSD delivers a clear step up in multitasking responsiveness. The jump is most noticeable when opening several office applications or loading large project files at once. Buyers who need more than 8 GB of DDR3 memory or a dedicated graphics card should look elsewhere.

Steady output during long work sessions

The 2.70 GHz quad-core CPU maintains consistent speeds while compiling code, running virtual machines or processing batch jobs without the short bursts that throttle quickly. Integrated graphics handle the 1366 x 768 HD LED display and external monitors through VGA or HDMI without adding heat. The DVD-RW drive and Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6205 wireless plus Gigabit Ethernet keep connectivity stable throughout the day.
