Laptop that works great with Calypso


Recommended Posts

I finally found a Laptop that will keep up with my desktop computer
If you use Dell Computers
All 12 of the DuraMax computer are
Dell running Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E3-1270 V5 @3.60 GHZ
Ram is 64 GB
Nvidia Quadro M2000 Card

I tried the Zeiss sugested HP but didn't love it.

My new Laptops are Dell Percision 7540
Running Intel (R) Xeon(R) E-2276M CPU @ 2.8 GHz
With Nvidia Quadro T2000
If you use this you will need to disable Intel(R) UHD Graphics 630 it will try to use this card to extend battery life.

I also have 3 - Logitech 930 Web camera attached to each DuraMax and plunged in to the computer.
I use IT tools to remote in to any machine anywhere in the world

Home Screen of Autorun
Next 2 are different angles 930 cameras from Queretaro Mexico
Next is from Shanghai China
And 3D printer in my office that just printed a intake manifold for a High speed camera.

You just sent a processor spec.
Its using a 6 core processor 12 threads
Works great I would rather have 6 cores at 2.8 then 4 cores at 3.1
But really non of that much matters calypso only uses 30% of the processor
It is all about the T2000 Nvidia Card.

Unless you have complex programs (Curves, Free-Form Surfaces, a lot of PCM calculations) I don't recommend high-end computers for a DuraMax.

I use a Dell Precision 7720 for my offline programming, and it works well. Zeiss uses a modified version of this laptop for their entry level Comet/T-Scan systems which is processing a lot of data.

At the end of the day, find something that works well for you, and meets your budget.

I would say that depends more of the overload of the CMM..
I have cases of people asking for more CMMS because they are overloaded; when we study some cases, we notice that they have computers that takes lot of time processing.

I have seen one case where one single measuring was taking around 30% more just because the workstation
I did a study to justify spending money on faster computers. I timed some programs from start to finish on both our slower computer and our fastest. equation was as follows

(( Time difference between programs in hours * number of times ran per year) * $$per hour to run the CMMs) = money saved just by upgrading computers per year

Good luck acquiring one. The initial stock was sold out internet wide in under 5 minutes. Bots probably claimed 95% of them. I tried newegg, best buy, and Nvidia's own site. Instantly went from "Notify me when available" to "out of stock". Newegg claimed there was more traffic than on black friday.

I only want it for video games though 🧑‍💻
