Dell recently upgraded its most powerful line of notebooks by the launch of the Precision M6500. The mobile workstation upgrades to Core i7 quad-core processors and goes up to 2GHz Core i7 Extreme. It is also the first notebook to use Quadro FX 3800M from NVIDIA, providing an extra level of speed in 3D rendering beyond the 3700M.

While still having a 17-inch screen, up to 1,920×1,200, it gets further control over colour. Dell claims that the panel covers 100 percent of the Adobe RGB space but has colour profiling now, to match particular conditions. Edge-to-edge RGB LED backlight is brought by higher-end trim levels.

The system will be priced starting at $2,749 for a configuration with a 1.6GHz Core i7 processor, 2GB of RAM, a 1,499×900 display resolution, a 160GB hard drive, read-only DVD and ATI FirePro M7740 graphics. The full configuration M6500 has the faster processor and GPU, a Quadro FX 2800M also being available, and as many as three hard disc drives, that includes up to 500GB rotating drives, 160GB encrypted drives and 256GB solid-state drives. It can support up to 16GB of RAM and can optionally have DVD burning or Blu-ray and 3G over HSPA or EVDO Revision A.
