Dell Precision T1650






The Dell Precision T1650 was released in 2012. It's  an entry level workstation that was designed to aggressively attack HP on the enterprise workstation front. Did it work? I don't know, but Dell is still around making good workstations, and I plan to use this one as an inexpensive temporary 3D graphics workstation.





The unit came with the following specs:

 Intel® Core i7-3770 Quad Core (HT) Processor
(8M Cache, 3.40 GHz/3.80 GHz Turbo Boost)
AMD FirePro 2270 Graphics 512 DDR3
with DMS59
8GB DDR3 Memory
2TB Hard Drive
DVD-ROM Optical  Drive
10/100/1000 Ethernet
10x USB 2.0 Ports
3x USB 3.0 Ports
Audio Out/Mic In
Windows 7 Pro

The MSRP during 2012 was 1889.00 USD. I purchased mine on eBay for 349.00 USD. I'll be  replacing the graphics card with a 2GB nVIDIA Quadro K2000 Graphic Card, more RAM and another hard drive.
