configurator until you've got the most over-the-top expensive machine possible and then imagine what it'd be like to actually have it well today we don't have to imagine oh she's a heavy boy coming in at just under 13 000 oh this absolute mother of a machine has enough compute to make you go whoa enough GPU to make you go damn and enough RAM to make you go why would anybody need that much RAM in a laptop introducing the dell precision 7750 at roughly double the thickness of the xps 15 and nearly three and a half kilograms well there's no way to sugarcoat it she's a chunker compared to the xps we do get way more ports including Ethernet a total of four display outputs and a smart card reader for verifying user credentials but to put it lightly this is not the kind of machine that you want to carry around in your backpack all day unless this is your backpack now dell has more reasonable machines in the precision lineup that are basically the xps 15 or 17 but with a zeon and a quadro as for the 7750 here it's a completely different beast if the 240 watt power brick didn't tip you off we have got some serious processing on the inside for CPU our unit is equipped with a xeon w10885 m an 8 core processor that can turbo up to 5.3 gigahertz but has difficulty actually sustaining speeds like that on mortal laptops hopefully with the 7750s large and heavy cooler we'll be seeing it get well at least close graphics are handled by NVIDIA quadro rtx 5000 which has the same tu-104 chip as the rtx 2080 gaming graphics card except with 128 more shaders enabled and a cool 16 gigs of video memory which means this is not only a beast workstation it could actually be faster in games than the fastest gaming laptop that we have in the studio so then how does it game i mean i guess we better play some games yeah yeah all right let's fire up shadow of the tomb raider one of our favorite benchmarks we're gonna run it on basically all maxed 4k except motion blur because motion blur is bad and if you use it you should feel bad well it's not a smooth 60 FPS we're actually running around 40 but i am screen recording at the moment and remember that this is running at 4k absolutely cranked absolutely maxed screen space contact shadows do not go to high even in the most extreme preset doesn't even hurt performance that much interesting whoa don't hit a rock sheet of rock as good an experienced as that was though when we tested it against the alienware area 51m the fastest gaming laptop we have here well the area 51m did win which isn't really surprising given that it's got a desktop processor game optimized drivers and also happens to be water cooled now but i was still hoping for the precision to somehow eco to win and maybe it would have if dell had pulled the same stunt as ASUS with their studio book one the only laptop with a quadro rtx 6000 inside it although they did have to pull off some pretty funky ventilation tricks in order to make that work all right so it's not quite the fastest but just because you're not the fastest doesn't mean you're terrible second fastest ain't half bad and having that kind of grunt makes a huge difference in applications that are able to take advantage of it so let's give it a go in mark bench a video encoding benchmark that was created by one of our video editors mark that's basically an identical timeline in both adobe premiere pro and apple final cut pro the goal here is twofold to show how much GPU can help with video encoding and to tease the apple fanboys about how badly their precious final cut gets destroyed well i hope while these are running i want to talk about some of the comments you guys left on our review of the dell xps 15. some of you said that we went pretty light on dell compared to apple for the mediocre thermals and power delivery in the xps 15 and there is a reason for this dell is not marketing the xps 15 as the be all and end-all for professionals i mean sure with a machine like this you can edit videos or work on cad models but if you're doing it professionally dell is going to advise you to go with their business focused and more expensive precision lineup so we're definitely going to hold it to a different standard which means hopefully you're keeping your thermals under control here buddy there it is boys and what are we at on the macbook so it is twice as fast as our kitted out macbook pro which i guess is sort of an indication you don't really need a computer like this to edit videos maybe a lower spec version with less RAM because the thing that makes this machine particularly special compared to other laptops is the crazy 128 gigabytes of ddr4 memory so to answer our earlier question why would anybody need that much RAM in a laptop simon he's an engineering student who reached out to us the other day because his flow simulation gosh darn it just wouldn't run on his personal machine due to you guessed it a lack of system memory let's see how it does on this we'll let the mat keep chugging away yeah okay this is showing just how much you can get done on this computer well you know the peasants keep on exporting oh ouch so on simon's computer he without like the big honeycomb thing on the front it took him an hour and with the honeycomb thing it just crashed on this computer right here how long do you think it took with the honeycomb i don't know uh i'm going to say 20 i don't even know what kind of computer he has like 20 minutes half a second half a second half a second what kind of machine is he running he machines like i don't know he does only have four gigs of RAM so that's definitely a problem ouch this used like over a hundred when creating the mesh can we like see anything yeah just a second i want to see the simulation i'm turning it on right now we're living in the simulation there that's what we did oh that's pretty cool you can cut it right here boom and so how long did it take to run the whole thing with the mesh uh with the mesh it took about 50 minutes and how long did his machine take to run it with the mesh it didn't it it just couldn't even mesh it huh so this shows like meters per second like air velocity through uh through a thing what's the purpose of the honeycomb mesh there's probably a fan right here and when you have the fan it would create a whole bunch of turbulence like everything would be all flippity-floppity-ing so we go through this mesh so it's all kind of like going through the funny thing though is that while during our gaming testing our CPU got as high as 100 degrees and actually thermal throttled while running a simulation like this and using all 128 gigs of our memory it turned out that CPU thermals weren't a problem at all our CPU was able to maintain 4.3 gigahertz across all eight cores while running at about 75 degrees celsius and consuming a consistent 60 watts of power with spikes up to 100 watts and it did it just fine in a laptop now we're still a little disappointed that a combined load that actually hits both CPU and GPU completely can overwhelm the cooling solution but at least in situations like this one it holds its own nicely as for the screen well it's fine it's 16x9 when the rest of the precision lineup has switched over to 16x10 there's no touch option even and it lacks the succulent visuals of the xps lineup but it isn't all bad i mean dell could have made the panel more vivid but the anti-reflective coating is awesome if you're working under fluorescent lights and the 4k 17 inch panel is big enough to make this really feel like a workstation replacement for inputs oh this is a bit of a contentious area the new dell precision lineup is the first that they've done to drop the pointing stick aka the nipple mouse and then increase the trackpad size and i'd wait sorry this is contentious in my opinion the only thing that should be contentious about this is that they didn't go far enough i mean this is a usable sized track pad but yeah you know i might actually be upset that they took away my nipple mouse and didn't give me the track pad off the xps 15. look at the size of this by comparison they should have just taken that it's contentious but not for the reasons that i think you probably meant in the script as for the keyboard it is unsurprisingly excellent it's not quite as snappy as the one on the xps 15 but it's the kind of keyboard that you could easily sit down at all day and write up reports on how the radiographic testing shows the contractors that they need to redo all the welding for free or whatever report someone who uses this needs to write up like like how they should be allowed to expense a new water bottle from ltteststore.com so they can stay hydrated at work or whatever oh hey the macbook finished it's good good for you budget kids budget real men rip laptops apart with their bare hands oh yeah well that explains why it's so heavy is this a single cnc piece bottom amanda they xps it oh damn they did they did look at that it's beautiful oh like sometimes they try to get it really smooth even on the inside just oh just leave the milling marks on i love it oh my god this thing has four m.2 slots that is so cool there's i think one one terabyte and two two terabytes this is a two terabyte unit this is a really weird m.2 like hold down mechanism oh i think i get it there um oh shoot oh shoot oh wow that magnet is so strong it grabs the screw from there oh did they cheap out on us you hold them out on us dell you hold them out there's an empty one send it back i'm done i'm out no forget it i'm out no i still want to play with it i'm back okay so the battery which is pretty close to the maximum allowed on a commercial flight 95 watt hours is expected to give you about eight hours of screen time but if you do any real work that's gonna quickly drop down to more like an hour now i've got a note in here to mention why vapor chambers kick butt we have a video coming up about that you want to make sure you're subscribed so you don't miss it but basically what makes the cooling possible on this puppy is these right here so it uses a combination of vapor chambers and these large heat exchangers back here to get rid of all that flipping heat from the GPU as well as the CPU what is this does this have a cellular card in it oh it does yeah oh nice wow it's got all the trimmings for the low low price of what 13 13 grand now there are people that require this kind of power but the thing is most of them will either use massive servers that are on site at their work or compute clusters to actually crunch the crazy numbers that doesn't mean though that this is completely without a use case the main one i can think of is offshore oil and gas for example so in a scenario like that the engineer might be flown in so carrying their server in their backpack is a pretty nice quality of life improvement and while they're on site they might be required to run complex flow simulations and of course an oil and gas firm well under normal conditions anyway won't blink an eye at a 13 000 laptop if it's going to help them pump 55 million dollars of oil a day out of the ground or the sea or wherever it is they get oil from another feasible use case is of course you know the usual suspects for desktop replacements or as we like to call them semi-mobile workstations so you know a work from home architectural engineer civil engineer researcher etc so if you're one of those and trying to figure out what to spend the rest of your 2020 budget on so that it doesn't get cut next year maybe consider this instead of the macbook pro because you know it's actually for pros well pros with like jacked arms anyway i'll give the macbook that it's a lot lighter if you guys enjoyed this video and you want to check out another crazy laptop maybe uh have a look at alex's ShortCircuit video on the uh yes that the studio book pro it's crazy it's got an rtx 6000 like what"}
