Mobile Workstation VS Desktop Workstation

Precision  M6300 (Mobile Workstation)

  1. Intel Core  2 Duo T7700 (2.40GHz/4M L2 Cache/800MHz)
  2. NVIDIA Quadro FX 1600M 512MB(mid range)
  3. 4.0GB, DDR2-667 SDRAM

 Precision  T3400 (desk top Workstation)

  1. Intel Core 2 Duo E4600 (2.40GHz/2MB L2/800MHz)512MB(mid range)N
  2. VIDIA Quadro FX 1700
  3. 4.0GB, DDR2-800 SDRAM

Two workstations, one is a Laptop  and the other is desktop

And they almost have the same specificationIs

 is that mean it will give same rendering performance and same stability or close one???

Because they are many friends tell  that the laptops never gives the same stability and performance

even it have the same specificationeven

 even it made in business standardsand if I didn't need a mobile workstation, never think about it again!!!

 With my best regard/Tariq

Appreciably slower - notebooks are not suited for high-power workstation use.  They're OK for occasional use, but as a main system, none of them will perform as well as their desktop equivalents.

You shouldn't really be considering the performance issue in quite this way.  While the laptop may be slower than the desktop, the real question is, can the desktop go where you need it to go?  If you need the mobility of a laptop, or simply just want it, then the speed advantage of the desktop isn't relevant. 

 

On the other hand, if you don't need the mobility, don't pay for it.  Anything you get as a laptop is going to cost you more than if you bought it as as desktop. 

 

You're really comparing apples and zinc.  or oranges.  or something.
