That's Dell's message with the launch of several new entry-level Precision 3000 workstations, which offer great power with some of the latest Intel, Nvidia and AMD chips, but have starting prices of between US $ 650 and US $ 900. Key applications for the new towers and rack workstations include virtual reality production and medical imaging, according to Dell.
The company has also reduced the footprint of Precision 3000 workstations from previous generations, allowing its use in a wide variety of environments, and has also renovated its Precision Tower 5820 with new processors.
Here are some key details about four new Dell Precision workstations.
Following Dell's launch of an ultra-powerful precision frame in a 2U form factor last fall, the company is now launching a more compact 1U rack workstation that also offers tremendous performance. The new Precision 3930 Rack features six-core Intel Xeon E processors from the new E-2100 family or can be configured with eighth-generation Intel Core i3 / i5 / i7 chips.
The graphics options include a range of AMD and Nvidia cards, up to the Nvidia Quadro P6000. The rack also offers up to 64GB of DDR4 memory and up to 24TB of storage, and comes with three PCIe slots. Dell says the Precision 3930 Rack is ideal for use in highly demanding computing environments, including industrial automation and medical imaging.
The Dell Precision 3930 Rack will be available on July 26 with a starting price of US $ 899.
Precision Tower 3630
Dell says the Precision 3630 Tower PC is 23 percent smaller than the previous generation model, with 13.19 x 6.95 x 13.58 inches, but still retains a lot of power. The processor options include the Intel Core i7-8700K and Intel Xeon E six-core chips, and the tower can be configured with up to 64 GB of DDR4 memory.
The tower also supports up to 225W of graphics, says Dell. The graphics options include the AMD Radeon Pro WX 7100 and the Nvidia Quadro P5000, as well as other cards in the AMD Radeon Pro series and the Nvidia Quadro series. Storage can reach up to 16 TB. Ultimately, Dell says the Precision 3630 Tower offers capabilities for virtual reality production in the entry-level Precision 3000 Tower series for the first time.
The Dell Precision 3630 Tower is now available with a starting price of US $ 749.
Form factor small precision tower 3430
Aimed at customers with tight spaces, the Precision 3430 small form factor tower is only 3.65 inches wide, but still offers solid CPU and graphics performance. The processor options include Intel Xeon E, Core i3 / i5 / i7 eighth generation and Pentium, while graphics options go to AMD Radeon Pro WX 4100 or Nvidia Quadro P1000. Like other new versions of Dell precision, the Precision 3430 small form factor tower can include up to 64 GB of DDR4 memory. The tower also offers up to 6 TB of storage.
The Dell Precision 3430 Tower Small Form Factor Tower is now available with a starting price of US $ 649.
Precision tower 5820
Dell is also implementing a significant update of its Precision 5820 Tower. While the shape factor of the tower remains the same, the Precision 5820 workstation will gain a great boost to performance with the addition of the Intel Core X series processors as an option. The X series chips join the existing processor options in the Intel Xeon W series.
