Heat dissipation in 5820 Tower
Hi all,
I'm going to buy a new workstation in the next days and i found a Dell configuration that interest me, follows a list of component:
- Base: Precision 5820 Tower XCTO Base
- Processor: Intel Core i9-10980XE, 18 core, 3,0 GHz, 4,8 GHz Turbo, HT, 24,75 MB di memoria cache, 165 W, memoria DDR4 a 2.933 MHz, non ECC
- Operating System: Windows 10 Pro (64 bit), inglese, olandese, francese, tedesco, italiano
- Chassis options: Chassis Core X FlexBay PCIe da 950 W per Precision 5820 Tower, CL
- GPU: NVIDIA Quadro RTX4000, 8 GB, 3 DP, VirtualLink (XX20T)
- Memory: 64 GB,2 da 32 GB di memoria DDR4, UDIMM, non ECC
Now, in the configuration panel i have no possibility to choose the dissipation system, at first i was searching for liquid cooling, but the only option available in 5820 tower is a "new" air cooling system. I'm asking to who already have this kind of tower, is the dissipation enough? This machine is going to support 3D CAD softwares and rendering.
Thanks for the attention.

Hello,
keep in mind that that specific variation of the 5820 will not offer you ( very likely ) a path to install a 11th gen cpu.
This said, I've a 7820. It's a practically identical chassis with the only difference being an optional modification that keeps in place the optional 2nd cpu cage. The ventilation is the same, and I personally feel it being adequate.
PS, keep in mind that if you want to add a thunderbolt port later, it's advisable you do while configuring instead. It's quite complicate otherwise
