DELL Precision T5820 Xeon W-2145 256GB DDR4 2TB NVMe Quadro P2000

Precision T5820 workstation overview

The Dell Precision T5820 is a mid-tower desktop built around an Intel Xeon W-2145 processor running at 3.7 GHz with a 4.5 GHz turbo frequency. It ships with 256 GB of DDR4 2666 registered ECC memory installed across eight slots and a 2 TB PCIe NVMe solid-state drive. A Quadro P2000 graphics card with 5 GB GDDR5 and four DisplayPort outputs handles visual workloads.

Suited for ECC-heavy workloads.

This system suits engineers, analysts and content creators who need error-correcting memory capacity at the platform maximum of 256 GB and certified professional graphics drivers. Buyers who require multiple high-end GPUs, larger GPU memory pools or a smaller chassis should look at other configurations because the single Quadro P2000 and mid-tower form factor limit those expansions.

Straightforward component access.

The side panel removes without tools, giving clear access to the eight DIMM slots, M.2 slot and PCIe x16 slot for the Quadro P2000. The 950 W 80 Plus Gold power supply uses standard cables, so cable routing is simple. The main installation pitfall is mixing registered ECC modules with unbuffered memory; the platform only supports registered ECC, so all added sticks must match the factory specification.
