DELL Precision 5820 Tower Workstation Xeon W-2155 10 Core 256GB DDR4 500GB NVMe Quadro P600 Windows 11 Pro

Precision 5820 Tower Workstation

The Dell Precision 5820 Tower is a mid-tower workstation built around an Intel Xeon W-2155 processor with 10 cores running at 3.3 GHz base and 4.5 GHz turbo. It ships with 256 GB of DDR4 2666 registered ECC memory across eight slots and a 500 GB NVMe SSD. An Nvidia Quadro P600 graphics card with 2 GB GDDR5 drives four DisplayPort outputs. Windows 11 Pro 64-bit comes pre-installed for professional workflows.

Sustained-load thermal and power behaviour

A 950 W 80 Plus Gold power supply rated at 90 % efficiency feeds the CPU, memory and GPU under continuous load. The Xeon W-2155 maintains its 3.3 GHz base frequency across all 10 cores while the Quadro P600 handles multi-display CAD or visualisation tasks without throttling. Registered ECC DDR4 2666 memory corrects single-bit errors in real time, preserving data integrity during long render or compute sessions.

Compatibility checks before ordering

Verify that your peripherals use DisplayPort because the Quadro P600 provides four such outputs and no HDMI or DVI ports. Confirm that any additional storage you plan to add fits the mid-tower chassis and available drive bays. The LGA 2066 socket and eight DDR4 slots are fully populated at 256 GB, so no further memory upgrades are possible. Ensure your network infrastructure supports the integrated Intel i219 Gigabit Ethernet controller.
