Precision 3640 workstation overview

The Dell Precision 3640 is a compact tower workstation built for professional workflows such as VR content creation, engineering simulation and complex design tasks. It ships new with Windows 10 Pro installed and uses a 10th Generation Intel Core i7-10700 processor paired with 16 GB of memory running at up to 2933 MHz. A 512 GB NVMe SSD provides the primary storage.

Upgrading from older workstations

This system replaces ageing desktops that struggle with modern multi-threaded workloads or lack support for high-speed NVMe storage. The jump is worth it when your current machine cannot address more than 128 GB of memory, cannot accommodate both SATA and PCIe drives simultaneously, or cannot deliver the single-thread performance needed for VR-ready applications. Dell Optimizer for Precision adds intelligent tuning that older platforms lack.

Compatibility checklist before ordering

Verify that your peripheral mix fits the available I/O on a small-form-factor tower, as the chassis limits the number of full-height expansion cards you can install. Confirm that any specialised GPU you plan to add stays within the power envelope and physical clearance of this enclosure. Ensure your software licences are compatible with Windows 10 Pro or Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, the only operating systems referenced for this model.
