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.
