Desktop with memory is insufficient

I have a question.

My data model has grown a lot with several tables and calculations using DAX, there is already a week that I can not update in my data model on the desktop. The reported error message says "PC memory is insufficient" and suggests that I change to 64 bitz version, but I'm already in this version.

Could someone tell me what PC configuration I should use?

Hey @rogerio_joliter,

 

Can you provide some more information about for current PC set up and PBI connection? (i.e. Current memory size, data gateway configuration, PBI connection type, processor, etc.)

 

Thanks,

 

Alan 

Hi Alan,

 I am sending configuration of my pc:

Hey @rogerio_joliter,

 

Check out this post: http://community.powerbi.com/t5/Desktop/Memory-error-when-refreshing/m-p/80957#M33776

 

Looks like you might just need to increase your data cache capacity.

 

Good luck,

 

Alan
