    Ok, didn't realize that Optane couldn't accelerate NVMe drives. (Obviously, that would be less beneficial than accelerating a slower drive anyway.) That limits its use to rather unusual configurations in these system, I think.

    On most tests, the P5200 is 10-12% slower than a 1080 on gaming and VR tests. Seeing some weirdness with some tests, so I am waiting on posting everything until I know my individual build is not causing some benchmarks to be lower. Is it drivers? Bios? Power settings? I want to make sure everything is optimal.


    The P5200 is much faster than I expected it to be. It is a huge jump from the P5000.

    See my post for details. TDLR is that you GPU score is typical of Cinebench and no info can be drawn from it.

    Run 3DMARK Firestrike if you want to see if your GPU is performing/scoring as it should in real world aplications

    I found another Chinese owner testing the E-2186 and P5200 config. P5200 performs amost identical as a laptop GTX 1070 in 3dmark.
    Has anyone got the P4200 option? I guess that P4200 will be similar to 1070max-q.

    Link? That is really low. The P5200 should perform just about 15% under a laptop GTX 1080. They may be throttling or something

    For reference the previous P5000 performed just under a GTX 1070, and it has 500 Less cores and ~80 less MHz (than the P5200).

    Link is here: https://forum.51nb.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=1845538&extra=page=1
    I found out that P5200 is limited to 110w, a typical value for 1070 instead of 1080.

    So again it's a P5200 Max-Q, but Dell makes no mention of that. Typical...

    Wow. First the P3200, now the P5200. What's the point in paying so much for reduced performance?

    Exactly. If the P4200 is full power, it should perform the same as this P5200... for $800 less

    Anyone have the P4200 and can test for Watts it pulls?
