    Little workhorse system that is compact and runs all the programs that I need it to. I replaced my older Dell Opti that I could no longer update so looking to get some years usage out of it. Buyer beware it is not compatible with Windows 11 so there is that point one may want to consider. Loads and lunches well and I have a few start up apps like MS Teams which is a mem hog.

    We realized there is no HDMI per so we had to buy an adapter to connect it to our monitor. Other than that, it's working great as expected so far!

    (1) No WIFI . So, I had to purchase USB wireless adapter to connect to internet .No HDMI ports (has DisplayPort instead) I could not connect with the Dell monitor that I had purchased with it at the same time until I purchases DisplayPort to HDMI adapter. The monitor was provided with HDMI cable. Although the monitor was a separate item it was in the same order. These are probably features for business-class model computers. If you are purchasing for personal use you should note these points. (2) The Joy Systems Keyboard does not type some letters. I have confirmed that this is not a software issue but rather a mechanical defect in the keyboard. Completely useless.

    Attempting to setup: Neither of the HDMIs work (can't plug in) nor the VGA for the monitor working. Very shoddy "refurbishing", and I needed it to be working TODAY!!

    READ MY REVIEW ASAP

    Not bad for a good speed/performance, great amount of storage with an affordable price! I think most people are just not knowledgeable between the price ranges of AVERAGE, MODERATE & PERFORMANCE LVL of desktops and laptops. If you have tight budget, then go for this, for me, you can categorize optiflex desktops in the middle of moderate and performance lvl. Cos its upgradable anyways!!! If you're not satisfy with the processor, the ram and storage, or you want to add SSD… you can buy another one and just stick them in! Just FYI that, this doesn't have HDMI ports and WIFI. You will need to connect thru Ethernet LAN. PLUS, its advisable to PLUG THIS ONLY TO PC-MONITORS. DO NOT PLUG IT TO ANY LCD or LED TV's. It will totally messed up the color management and display resolutions. Monitors is highly recommended! Overall... it runs smooth and fast! I installed games and video editing softwares. Thanks to Dell! And Thanks to Best Buy! I received it right after the following day that I purchased it and they shipped it. AWESOME.

    The CPU was great. The keyboard was flimsy and part of the corner by the connector was broken. I have others, so no big deal. The unit was exactly what I was looking for.
