Description
Dell Precision 3580
The lightest Precision with certified NVIDIA graphics, configured to its ceiling — RTX A500, 64GB of DDR5 and up to 4TB of NVMe — for engineers, developers, and designers in Cairo who work on the move.
- Intel Core i5-1350P vPro
- NVIDIA RTX A500 4GB (Max GPU)

The Dell Precision 3580 pairs a 12-core Core i5-1350P vPro with an ISV-certified NVIDIA RTX A500 GPU in a thin 1.6kg chassis. This unit is configured to its ceiling — the RTX A500 is the only discrete GPU Dell offers on this platform, memory tops out at 64GB of DDR5-5200 across both SO-DIMM slots, and storage reaches about 4TB across two M.2 PCIe Gen4 NVMe slots. The RTX A500 4GB adds validated drivers and CUDA acceleration for SolidWorks, Revit, AutoCAD, and light 3D work that integrated graphics can't handle, while the FHD 1920x1080 anti-glare panel keeps power draw and cost sensible. It is the certified, travel-friendly choice for CAD, BIM, development, and design that doesn't need a heavy 45W workstation.
Why Choose This Configuration
- Top (and Only) Discrete GPU: RTX A500 4GBISV-validated drivers for SolidWorks, Revit, AutoCAD, and CATIA, plus CUDA and ray-tracing hardware — a real step above integrated graphics.
- 13th-Gen 12-Core i5 vPro4 performance + 8 efficiency cores to 4.7GHz for CAD, compiling, and multitasking, with enterprise manageability.
- Memory Maxed at 64GB DDR5-5200Both SO-DIMM slots filled, so large models, datasets, and multiple VMs stay in RAM — and both modules stay user-upgradeable.
- Up to ~4TB of Gen4 NVMeTwo M.2 slots (RAID capable) keep projects, footage, and back-ups on fast local storage.
- Full Port Set, No Dongle2x Thunderbolt 4, HDMI 2.0, RJ-45 Ethernet, and USB-A connect to office networks and projectors directly.
- Thin, Light, ServiceableAbout 1.6kg, and a single bottom panel opens for memory and SSD upgrades.
Where the RTX A500 Sits
- Intel UHD Graphics (Integrated)Single-channel-memory builds — office work and light CAD only.
- Intel Iris Xe Graphics (Integrated)Dual-channel-memory builds — a stronger integrated option for everyday use.
- NVIDIA RTX A500 — 4GB GDDR6 (This Unit, Max)The only discrete option and the top graphics tier on the Precision 3580.
15.6" FHD Panels Offered
- FHD 250-nit, 45% NTSC, Non-Touch1920x1080 IPS anti-glare, 60Hz — the standard panel for everyday CAD, code, and office work.
- FHD 250-nit, 45% NTSC, Touch1920x1080 IPS anti-glare, 60Hz, with touch input for markup and navigation.
- FHD 400-nit, 100% sRGB1920x1080 IPS anti-glare, 60Hz, brighter and colour-accurate, with Low Blue Light and Super Low Power — best for design and long sessions.
