Hello,

I would like to upgrade my Dell R610 machine and I'm looking on these two CPUs (Intel Xeon E5620 vs. L5520).

The question is which one is better. I know that L stands for low power consumption buy I'm more interested in the performance as I will be run virtual machines, so could you help me which one will be more suitable.

- maybe other CPU sugstions for Dell R610 with similar price

Thanks in advance for any help

Hello,

Agreed with PeterUK, if you are looking for performance, go for the E5620.

Quick Comparison of the CPUs:

Make sure to check the compatibility from the Dell Support Site.

All the best,

Kind Regards,

Aryan.
