Dell just added a new beast of a workstation to its line-up featuring the latest AMD Threadripper Pro processors and more RAM than you can shake a stick at.

I/O is modern to say the least. Apart from some optional PS2 and Serial ports we find three USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C, three USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A (one supporting Smart Power On), a 3.5mm audio out, 1GbE and 10GbE ports in the rear. There’s also two USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A, two USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C (one with PowerShare), two audio jacks, an SD-card reader, and an optical drive in the front.
Precision 7865 is powered by a 1,350W PSU and can be equipped with additional Ethernet or Wi-Fi network adapters, Thunderbolt 3 plus USB 4 cards and more.
Finally, the workstation follows Dell’s design style, measures 417.90mm (H) x 176.50mm (W) x 452.10mm (D) and has a tool-less side panel and an intrusion detection system.
