The systems double the number of memory channels to four fully buffered dual in-line memory modules (DIMMs) and feature a scalable advanced memory design \u2013 up to 16 DIMMs via an optional memory riser \u2013 for the largest memory configurations, Dell adds. <\/font><\/p>\n<p><font size=\"2\">The graphics capabilities of the Dell Precision 690 and the Dell Precision 490 workstations have also been enhanced for the most demanding visualisation environments, the company continues.
