PROCESSOR
NOTE: Global Standard Products (GSP) are a subset of Dell’s relationship products that are managed for availability and synchro-
nized transitions on a worldwide basis. They ensure the same platform is available for purchase globally. This allows customers to
reduce the number of configurations managed on a worldwide basis, thereby reducing their costs. They also enable companies
to implement global IT standards by locking in specific product configurations worldwide. The following GSP processors identi-
fied below will be made available to Dell customers.
NOTE: Processor numbers are not a measure of performance. Processor availability subject to change and may vary by region/
country.

MEMORY
NOTE: The Dell Precision T3600 has a four channel memory bus architecture. Dell recommends that all four memory channels
be populated with DIMMS for maximum memory performance. Please note, RDIMM ECC and NECC memory cannot be mixed.
1 The total amount of available memory will be less than 4GB on systems running 32-bit operating systems. The amount less depends on the actual
system configuration. To fully utilize 4GB or more of memory requires a 64-bit operating system.
Type: DDR3 Synch DRAM Non-ECC and RDIMM
Max Frequency 1600 MHz
DIMM Slots 4
DIMM Capacities Up to 16 GB
Minimum Memory 2 GB
Maximum System Memory 64GB1
