OWC 32GB DDR4 UDIMM for Dell OptiPlex

This OWC 32GB DDR4 3200 CL22 module is built for Dell OptiPlex 3000, 5000 and 5080 systems in both small form factor and tower chassis. It targets owners of those specific workstations who need a straightforward capacity increase without compatibility guesswork.

Fits 288-pin DDR4 slots in the listed OptiPlex

The unbuffered non-ECC DIMM runs at 1.2V and slots directly into the motherboard memory sockets of the compatible OptiPlex 3000 SFF, 3000 Tower, 5000 SFF, 5000 Tower and 5080 SFF. It requires no extra cooling, no firmware updates and no additional hardware to operate at its rated PC4-25600 speed.

Replaces or adds to slower DDR4 modules

The module is backward compatible with 2133, 2400, 2666 and 2933MHz DDR4, so it can upgrade existing sticks running at those speeds. The jump is worthwhile when the system currently has less than 32GB total or when installed memory runs below 3200MHz and the board supports the higher rate. It is not for systems that require ECC, registered memory or a different DDR generation.

Questions about this item

Will the CL22 latency limit throughput on my Dell OptiPlex 5000 Tower during long rendering jobs?

CL22 is the rated CAS latency at 3200 MT/s; the module runs at standard JEDEC timings so sustained throughput is determined by the platform memory controller, not by the stick itself.

How much heat does the 1.2 V 32 GB module generate when the OptiPlex 3000 SFF runs all day?

At 1.2 V with no heat spreader the DRAM stays within normal DDR4 thermal limits; the OptiPlex chassis airflow handles the modest heat load without extra cooling.

My OptiPlex 5080 SFF has two DIMM slots — do I need a matched pair for this 2Rx8 stick to work?

The module is unbuffered non-ECC 2Rx8 and works as a single 32 GB DIMM; no matched pair is required for the listed OptiPlex models.
