Mobile Xeon? Pardon?

  Yeah, Dell Precision 5520 with Xeon E3-1505Mv6 I loved it. https://www.dell.com/support/manuals/sv-se/precision-15-5520-laptop/precision_5520_om/technical-specifications?guid=guid-32e2fd6d-3734-4e0a-a340-d8164e73523e&lang=en-us https://www.dell.com/support/manuals/sv-se/precision-15-5520...

  There are multiple tiers of Xeon. The “base” tier (I am very much over-simplifying) is the same silicon as consumer desktop/mobile with some features turned on like ECC. Mobile workstations and the like get Mobile Xeons. It’s less crazy than Desktop Replacements with socketed Desktop CPUs.

    It’s a pretty fuzzy barrier anyway. Like the original Skylake i9 desktop chips were basically just Xeons, right? It isn’t like there’s anything magic in a Xeon, it’s just a bunch of cores, why not pop one in a laptop… just don’t hurt your back carrying the power brick.

  Still rocking my Intel Xeon E3-1545M v5 (Skylake) from 2016. It was the only way to get ECC ram on a mobile workstation.
