A comment on New Ubuntu-based Precision line-up.

Dell.com says the new Precision 5520 has "NVIDIA Quadro M1200"[1], which may be a typo of P1200.

Is the NVIDIA Quadro M1200 included in the Precision 5520 based on GP107-400 (GTX 1050 Ti) or GP107-300 (GTX 1050)?

No, it's Maxwell. There's not a mobile Pascal Quadro that'd work at that form factor and thermal capacity at this time. The Kaby Lake Dell XPS 15 (Precision 5520's sibling) uses a Pascal GTX, though.

Maxwell Quadro mobile parts end in "M" (in addition to starting with "M"), which leads me to believe that this is just a typo'd Pascal part.

I work on Linux at Dell. I'm the guy in the hammock in that blog post by Barton. It's a Maxwell Quadro for the reasons I stated.
