Precision 7510 Owner's Thread

That's exactly how it works on the M4800. I don't see why the 7510 would be any different.

I thought that was how it worked but, CPU-Z shows the following:

Slot #1 Hyundai DDR4-2134
Slot #2 Crucial DDR4-2400
Slot #3 Hyundai DDR4-2134
Slot #4 Crucial DDR-2400

The Crucial is installed under the keyboard
The SK Hynix is installed under the bottom panel

 

Exactly: so the primary slots are 1/3 and the secondary pair is 2/4.

I will say, this thing does a respectable job with Doom (2016)
(despite not being a "gaming" laptop)

With the latest nvidia driver, (not the one from Dell) and a quick settings adj in nvidia control panel (assigning the dGPU to Doom and clicking max-performance) it runs the game (vulkan) at ultra settings, 8X antialiasing and full resolution with an avg of 40fps. I really don't even notice the fans running but I wear headphones and use a Targus cool pad.

I'm glad I opted for the 1080 screen, I doubt the M2000M would be up to the task with the 4K screen.

Last night, for giggles I had two TV stations tuned and recording (USB tuner), along with Netflix and Hulu streaming while I opened a few web pages in Chrome, she just kept plugging away, no glitches.

 

Cinebench R15 results:

OpenGL - 96.37 fps
CPU - 740 cb

No tweaks other than assigning the Nvidia GPU to the program in the control panel.

If anyone wants more benchmarks let me know (links to downloads would be appreciated)

 

FYI new bios 1.7.3
Does not seem to cause issue atm.

Test was run on 4K display via HDMI

I tried running Doom at 3840 X 2160, 12-15fps is all it could muster.

 

14 Seconds in Last BIOS time. Is that a problem?

 

@phineasmax I may try the new BIOS in a week or so, so I can't say if it is faster or slower than my current BIOS boot time.

But if you do a cold boot again (boot from shutdown vs restart) is it still 14 seconds? Or was that 14 seconds at one of the earlier reboots after the update? Added anything like adding/changing RAM, connecting external devices, particularly external HDDs that might attribute to a slower startup? Is Fastboot in BIOS set to minimal, auto, or thorough?

 

I get a higher boot time (18 s to reach Grub, cold boot, auto mode, 16 Gb RAM, 1 SSD OEM).
Nothing spectacular, though.

The guy from Dell I called to know what the "graphic special mode" (still undocumented in 1.7.3 !) does, told me that this high boot time was normal with Precision machines.
"It's not a bug, it's a feature". Hmm.
