Hello everyone, I'm updating my workspace and could receive a Dell Precision T5810 for free. The specs are: Xeon E5 quad core CPU (model uncertain), 4x4GB DDR4 2133Mhz memory, Quadro K4200 GPU, Crucial BX100 SSD. I'm considering moving it to a smaller case for home server use.
I need answers about:
- Motherboard compatibility with standard ATX power supply (24-pin connector looks fine, but CPU connector unclear).
- Whether the motherboard size fits in a typical ATX case.
You can share your thoughts or photos if you have them.
It is completely exclusive. Retain the case if you wish to utilize the board and the PSU as well.
You're looking at a unique setup where the CPU uses a 10-pin connector instead of the usual 8. It makes sense to keep the PSU and remove the case if you're comfortable with that choice. The case would likely be needed only for basic power delivery and possibly ventilation, but since the front panel is proprietary, it might not serve any other function beyond power and possibly audio.
The document refers to the Avalon3 System Board components with GUID B80A46A7-753E-49FB-82F6-474D3A37BBA6.
You can install two power supplies for GPU mounting and add more as needed.
You're thinking about modifying the motherboard and PSU, maybe drilling custom holes for standoffs. That could affect the sensors too. Are you referring to BIOS issues that stop the system from starting, or could it still work normally?
You're looking at some challenging options here. It sounds like you're trying to piece together a build with older components and uncertain compatibility. I checked the details you provided, and it seems the XEON E5-1620 V3 CPU isn't widely available on standard ATX boards, especially not in the current market. The motherboard you found from Asrock appears to be a server model rather than a consumer-grade one, which might explain the limited availability. On Ebay, finding LGA 2011 boards that work with XEON CPUs is tough, and most listings are either outdated or non-standard. You might want to explore refurbished options or contact manufacturers directly for more information. Let me know if you'd like help researching alternatives!
