Dell has released its next-generation Dell Precision mobile workstations for engineering and design applications.

The M4700 is Dell's 15-inch mobile workstation, while the Dell Precision M6700 provides fixed workstation capability and higher performing graphics with a 17-inch display. The Covet Edition is available on the 17-inch version, featuring a Phoenix Red color finish and edge-to-edge Corning Gorilla Glass 2.

Both workstations incorporate the latest Intel Core i5, i7 and Extreme Edition processors with Turbo Boost Technology, and an extensive choice of professional graphics including the NVIDIA Quadro K-series GPUS and AMD FirePro graphics. The M6700 also offers AMD FirePro M6000 with PCIe x16 Gen 3 for fast data throughput.

Additionally, Dell provides DDR3 SDRAM with up to 32GB of system memory and 1600MHz of memory speed, and up to 16GB of 1866MHz memory. They also offer an optional SATA3 512GB solid state drive (SSD).

Both systems also offer expandability in the form of RAID 0/1/5 and three storage devices with up to 1.8TB of total storage in the M4700, and up to four storage devices with up to 2.8TB of total storage in the M6700.

The M6700 now features NVIDIA 3D Vision Pro, a combination of wireless active shutter glasses, an integrated RF communication hub, and advanced software. The technology automatically transforms various CAD/CAM/CAE, DCC, seismic visualization, life sciences and other applications into full stereoscopic 3D .

The M4700 and M6700 can power up to three simultaneous displays when undocked and up to five displays when docked, and are compatible with the Latitude E-family dock.
