Dell Precision M6700 Owners Thread

is not m 6600 - ddr 3
and m6700 -ddr 3(L)?



ddr3l is ddr3 memory but has much lower voltages, (eg.1.35v & 1.25v)

so any one tried 1.35v modules in m 6700?

 

6800 probably ddr3l, ivy use 1.5V fine.

 

The M6700 takes DDR3 just fine, it's what most of us are running. I'd venture a guess that it can take DDR3L too.

 

Is it possible to relace M6800 left IO board which has 2 usb 3.0 ports into M6700?

 

Likely not. Ignoring whether or not the internal connection is compatible, the M6800 drops the firewire port and moves the USB ports up, so the USB ports would not physically fit where they should in the chasis.

 

just to confirm: dell m6700 has pcie -2 gpu slot?

 

It's a MXM Type B slot on PCI-E 3.0.

 

and m6600 was pci-e 2.0?

 

Yup, the PCI-E rev doesn't really matter though, you get more bandwidth with 3.0, but 2.0 is still able to keep up with single card setups for now. PCI-E is also forward and backwards compatible just like SATA.

 

Just to sum up, got replacement of battery and IPS display today. Everything went smooth battery is freshly produced, IPS is
LG Philips LP173WF3 (173WF3 [DELL P/N: 4259G]) according to HWInfo and overall I'm very satisfied
