Overview | Tech Specs

Performance. Scalability. Productivity.

The Dell Precision 690 is an ultra-high-performance workstation that is designed to maximize performance and scalability in an innovative, customer-driven chassis design. The 690 offers up to two 64-bit Quad-Core Intel®  Xeon®  5100 or 5300 series processors, up to 64GB1 of memory in four fully-buffered DIMM channels (with an optional memory riser card on the 1KW version) and a wide range of high-performance OpenGL graphics cards. The Dell Precision 690 is designed for the most business-critical, compute-intensive and graphically demanding workstation environments.

New Heights of Scalability

The Dell Precision 690 climbs to new heights of scalability by supporting dual-graphics, up to 64GB* of quad-channel memory, up to two Dual-Core Intel Xeon processors and up to five hard drives for 2TB** of storage. The incredible performance that these expansions make possible are designed to take the 690 into a class of its own among workstations. And because business needs differ, the 690 can also deliver great flexibility when you're configuring your system and for growth in the future.

Multi-Core Intel®  Xeon®  Processors

The Dell Precision 690 is equipped with up to two 64-bit Dual or Quad-Core Intel®  Xeon®  5100 or 5300 series processors for a total of up to eight execution cores in two sockets. Intel®  Xeon multi-core processors can deliver a substantial performance increase over single-core Intel®  processors for multi-threaded applications and in multi-tasking environments. Intel Xeon 5100 and 5300 series processors are based upon a revolutionary architecture - Intel®  Core™ micro-architecture - with a shorter pipeline, lower clock speeds and faster front side bus are designed to deliver higher performance levels than previous generation Xeon processors. Multi-core processors allow your system to split tasks between separate processor cores so that they can share the load and get more done in less time. The processors can do more work per second, allowing you to run multiple or multi-threaded applications (DCC rendering and Analysis applications) with noticeably quicker results.

"Run multiple applications with noticeably quicker results."

Save Energy, Save Costs

The Energy Star-compliant Dell Precision Workstation is extremely energy efficient by pre-setting the BIOS to go into low power state after 30 minutes of inactivity. This high level of power management, combined with Power Factor Correcting power supplies, flat panel displays, Intel Core™2 Duo Processors and Dell's thermally efficient BTX chassis design, can help conserve your resources and the earth's resources at the same time.
