Dell Updates Its Massive Workstation Desktop PCs


Dell today introduced updates to its full-sized workstation desktop PCs, namely the Precision Tower 5810, Tower 7810, Tower 7910, and Rack 7910. All four massive workstations are designed for mission- and time-critical tasks in engineering, entertainment, manufacturing, and media.


The Dell Precision Towers and Rack mounted workstations are designed to give the individual worker the power to complete projects in a timely manner, with chassis designs that are serviced and managed by an in-house IT department. The Rack 7910 gives business users 1-to-1 workstation remote access, whether the worker is in the next room or half a world away in a work-sharing arrangement. The Rack 7910 will work remotely with the Wyse Zero Client, as well as software-based remote solutions.


The new workstations are powered by Intel's Haswell-EP based Xeon processors, including members of the Xeon E5-1600 v3 and Xeon E5-2600 v3 families. These processors will support DDR4-2133 memory, with a much speedier bandwidth than the DDR3-1600 memory common today. Other hot features include SAS-based PCIe SSD drives, internal support for up to RAID 5 arrays, options for new AMD and Nvidia graphics cards, and optimization for ISV-certified apps like 3DSmax, Adobe CC, and AutoCAD.


All of these new workstations will include a copy of Dell Performance Optimizer v2.0, which tailor Hyper-Threading, power, cooling, and clock speeds for the various ISV apps. Dell plans on optimizing the new workstations for 75 percent of certified ISV apps at launch, with 90-95 percent optimized by October 2014. The fact that the CPUs and GPUs are updating at the same time will help with these optimizations as well as a company's in-house testing and approval processes.
