I picked up a 5820 as a home workstation and it is everything. You can probably get more performance cheaper if your only interest is gaming, but if you want a machine that will handle anything you throw at it for *serious* work? This thing is a beast. Totally different category from any home PC or gaming unit. And I don't have to tell anyone who has one about the incredible robustness of the build. Love it!
Awesome 👍! I love dell precisions and hp workstations specially the ones on LGA 2011-3
It's worth noting this is the T5810 XL (they don't always say XL on the front) but they do have a single processor board with DDR4 memory. The previous ones were dual processor V2's with DDR3.
I didn't known that. Thanks for your information.
The music adds so much to these lol
I have an old HP Z440. It's good for a Dinnasoar. Running E5 1620 V3, 32 gb ddr4 and a k2200 quadro and a 870 ssd Samsung.
For anyone wondering or worried about no Windows 11 support. These workstations work very very well under Linux and gaming is not that hard with Steam Proton too. And if you really have to with them being workstation class machines they can run a Windows VM very well too.
I have mine Running Fedora and play games and use it for photo and video editing too.
I will install arch on my optiplex 3050, i will upgrade to i7 and 32gb of ram soon. Also i have installed archer t5e tp link wireless pcie module and rx 6400 4gb ram vga adapter, 1tb evo 980 and seagate 2tb hdd, cant wait to rechange the termal paste, might use it for blender kdenlive python and some games too
I had t3600, it did not support ECC memory because of 425W PSU...
Add one fan on back, there will be much lower temperatures inside.
I have a T5810 (upgraded the CPU to a E5 2678 v3 and swapped in 32GB memory) that I grabbed during the lockdowns when I started working from home again and it was pretty much impossible to build a PC. Came with a 625wt PSU so I was able to pop in better GPU's as I was able to get them. I finally built myself a new workstation so It's now my proxmox test machine. If I were buying now though I'd try to get a 5820, the prices have come down quite a bit and having the option of using U.2 drives for the money is insane.
Thanks for your comment.
At the time of purchasing, I cannot find a good deal for LGA2011-3 Xeon CPU. That's why I bought a cheap base machine with just 425W PSU and tried the Haswell-E.
I also have the same idea about the T5820. If we haven't own any PC then just go for the T5820 now.
By the way, I also did a video about the T5820, check it out if you have time.
Can confirm. I picked up a 5820 and it is a *beast*.
I have a somewhat older T 5610 with dual CPUs and the RAM maxed at 128GBs so 64GBs per CPU. It is a great computer. Put a GTX 1070 in it. The heatsink on the GPU was so big I had to remove the GPU pressure thing on the side panel though.
Thanks for your story. In fact, I got the same trouble with the GPU width and the side panel cannot be closed. Your comment reminds me. Such a pity that I forgot to mention in the video.
@@thinhdora Thanks for the response. Mine was mostly because the 1070 I got the best deal on was the Zotac Amp Extreme edition with 3 fans and a heatsink big enough to cool a 3080. lol They went a bit ridiculous on that model even with the factory overclock.
@@certs743 Mine too with 3 fans and huge heat sink. Perhaps that's the potential headroom for OC enthusiers.
too bad that the K CPU can't be overclocked on that mobo, it's really holding back the gpu in most games, saw better results on the 1070 with a i5 3570k at 4.5ghz....
