Precision 5680

I have the Precision 5680 which (I might be blatantly wrong) has the first haptic dell trackpad, and it's excellent. 90-95% of the Macbook. It has some glitches such as the intensity randomly changing or it doesn't register motion but it happens rarely. I believe the laptops after that (the XPS from

From what I‘m seeing, prioritizing the adapter will allow you achieve full CPU and GPU performance, and you won’t be stressing the battery or VRMs. As far as the VPU crashing, you would want to try download the official Dell Precision 5680 Win11 Driver Pack, boot into Safe Mode, remove all Intel ima

I've had really good luck with Dell Inspiron and Precision laptops. I use an Inspiron 15 for multi track field recording (film and TV work mostly, but some music) and my fiancee has a Precision 5680 for 3d modeling and motion graphics. Both are great machines and I'd gladly take the Precision over a

Power-wise, anything works. Even a chromebook. The two main things to consider for writing are whether the screen is easy on your eyes and if the keyboard is good. My day job is programming, so I use a Dell Precision 5680 that I got for personal programming projects. It's entirely overkill for writi

I have been using Dell Pro Max 14 and Dell Pro Max 16 which are basically the successor of Precision 5000 series.. Anything Pro Max 14/16 Plus is Precision 7000 series successor.

I had some old Thinkpad too (don't remember the model as it was years ago): no problem with that too. The only one that I had s

i looked into this for someone else last week. the precision 5680 with rtx 4090 runs at about 80w tgp plus dynamic boost up to around 95w. not a full power desktop 4090 obviously but pretty solid for a workstation laptop. dell keeps it a bit lower than gaming laptops for thermals. you can check nvid

You make some good points. I just want to add for others coming across this post that new is fine if you have the right components. In general, Lenovo and Dell products are well-supported. My 13th gen Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon aura edition is running Linux flawlessly and I didn't even have to instal

My partner recently got a Dell 16" Precision 5680 and it's a seriously impressive machine. Build quality is at least as good as a modern MacBook Pro and performance is very impressive. She does 3d modeling and animation. I'm far from an expert on laptops so I don't really have specific recommendatio

Software development includes game development in unity (hobby), as well as front and backend development (work). Hobby-scale unity should be fine on anything modern as long as it's got enough RAM and a decent GPU. For FE/BE development, is that mostly microservices/other small stuff or are you deal
