Question Precision 3590 Workstation - Upgrade RAM to 96 GB for CPU 165H?
Question Precision 3590 Workstation - Upgrade RAM to 96 GB for CPU 165H?
I'm considering purchasing the DELL Precision 3590 Workstation, featuring a 2TB SSD and a RAM upgrade to 96 GB. The CPU is an Intel Core Ultra 165H, which should function properly. Do you have any experience with systems using 96 GB of RAM and an Intel Core Ultra 165H processor?
The provided link leads to the owner's manual for precision model 3590.
The manual referenced by my colleague mentions a maximum memory capacity of 64GB, meaning exceeding that would compromise the device's stability. It seems you're already surpassing the supported limit, which could lead to issues. I also believe a laptop with such high RAM isn't practical; if you're aiming for maximum performance and cost, consider a custom build.
Thank you for your message. I'm trying to grasp the technical explanation behind why a laptop with an Intel Core Ultra 7 Processor 165H struggles to manage 96 GB of RAM. It seems related to the laptop's hardware configuration. I'm developing a specialized program in C++/asm64 using Visual Studio, where I handle large datasets—such as a 4 GB text file containing 50 million GPS coordinates. To manage memory, I allocate 5 GB of RAM, reading the file in 2.5 GB segments and processing them locally. This approach allowed me to analyze NOAA buoy data and identify the 4-5S 80-81E position, which is significant for understanding the debris path of Flight MH370. The program executed approximately 3 billion searches on the sorted data, and adding the visualization of buoy tracks on a world map took just 3 seconds.
because there are just two RAM slots available. it's said they should have 48GB, but Dell might not be testing them.
A bit late to join the gathering. I'm also interested since I just bought 3591 and while it isn't urgent, it's reassuring to know there are alternatives available. It seems the update was released a few years ago (a BIOS update is necessary). Some users have managed to upgrade from 3490, 3581, and 3590 to 96Gb using 2x48GB modules. Here are a few examples:

96 GB DDR5 recognized in Precision 34xx
and apparently in Precision 7680
though the manual doesn't explicitly mention compatibility with 2x48GB updates.
Please share your experience.
