DELL Precision 5820 Tower Workstation Xeon W-2135 3.7GHz 256GB DDR4 1TB NVMe Quadro P600

Built for heavy workloads

The Dell Precision 5820 Tower is a mid-tower workstation aimed at professionals who run memory-intensive applications such as large-scale simulation, rendering or data analysis. It ships with Windows 11 Pro and an Intel Xeon W-2135 six-core processor that reaches 4.5 GHz turbo frequency. The 256 GB DDR4 2666 registered ECC memory fills all eight slots, providing the maximum capacity the platform supports. A 1 TB NVMe SSD and an Nvidia Quadro P600 with 2 GB GDDR5 and four DisplayPort outputs complete the core specification.

Thermals and power draw

A 950 W 80 Plus Gold power supply rated at 90 percent efficiency delivers stable power to the CPU, GPU and fully populated memory banks. The tower chassis is designed to move air across the Xeon processor and the Quadro P600 under sustained load, keeping temperatures in check during long compute sessions. Acoustic output remains at a level suitable for a typical office environment. The integrated Intel i219 Gigabit Ethernet controller and Realtek ALC3234 audio add minimal extra heat.

Integration requirements

The LGA 2066 socket and eight occupied DIMM slots mean no further memory upgrades are possible without replacing modules. The single M.2 NVMe drive leaves additional storage bays free for future expansion cards or drives. Four DisplayPort connections on the Quadro P600 support multi-monitor setups directly, freeing PCIe slots for specialised add-in cards. The 950 W unit provides headroom for such additions while maintaining Gold-certified efficiency.
