As a rule, I don't trust ANY preinstalled operating system. I always blank the drive and install fresh. Too many prebuilts ship with loads of bloatware and even some have had viruses, I think it was Lenovo that had viruses on their new machines (not refurbs).

I have been in IT my whole life, this is an amazing price. You could pay $124 just for the monitor. I hope they still have some left as I am getting one. And not that it matters to most home PC users, but windows pro allows you to be part of a domain. I will update after i get it. So, I just ordered it 4/10/24 for $136. Can't believe it comes with a monitor! Will update after I have a chance to set it up. Update 4/16/24: So far so good, I configured the wireless, ran windows updates, will soon be upgrading to 16Gb Ram. I will not be using this for gaming but rather home office work. I like starting with a fresh slate, I won't be adding alot of programs. I love the very small for factor, I was disappointed in only 2 memory slots, but for $20 (2 x 8GB ) 16GB total, that is all I need.

On these old desktops/ laptops the most bang for the buck upgrade you can do is maximizing memory and a SATA SSD. Definitely can feel the difference specially an SSD upgrade. These things cost really cheap now there's really no point using a spinning drive for your OS disk. I had revived/ repurposed old computers this way which helps keep ewaste down.

Hi Tom! This was a great video. It was cool to see the card install too. Maybe you can do a video for nomads on the best computer for van life that has the least amount of draw on a battery/inverter system. I know you had a small computer on your van instead of a tower. What was that?

I have rescued many laptops from the scrap heap by replacing their "spinning rust" drive with a SSD and increasing the amount of RAM installed. The SSD would vastly improve your user experience on the desktop as well. Because of the slow speed of laptop hard drives, slower than desktops, many people will literally throw out laptop with a similar or somewhat better set of specifications to the desktop you feature in this video. Replace the spinning rust with an SSD, get the memory up to 8 Gig...and you have a laptop that will handle most of the tasks the majority of people need.

And to the immediate left of the DB-9 serial port, those are 2 Display Port ports. I see that the add-in card has a DVI port and, what looks to be, an HDMI port. Having a serial port can be handy for certain things.

Blue thingy is serial port (as noted below) -VGA is blue but has holes vs. pins. 'DVI' ports are actually DisplayPorts which is why you can't use the included cable for add in graphics card, which only has an actual DVI output and HDMI. (And yes, I would like to see more cheap tech reviews that AREN'T solar related!) 😁

One of the best computers I've ever owned was an optiplex computer. That thing just worked and it worked well. The only thing that I didn't like is that if you ever had to do a re-install, you had to upload the drivers manually. They were not permanently on the motherboard. So make sure you have a backup of the system drivers.

You will learn that Dell will not sell you a service plan for these Amazon refurb pc's as they are deemed to old. The PC in this presentation is circa 2018. Amazon will provide no tech support but will swap the unit for another within the first 90 days. Dell will provide a tech support session at $99 per occurrence but no yearly service plan. If these refurb's last a full year you are a winner a $125. I made a similar purchase about 60 days ago.

I feel like this computer needed an SSD upgrade. The other upgrades are good for specific programs and stuff. But SSD would make it snappy overall (making it feel faster than it actually is).

Update, Microsoft juuuuust relented on the 2 year ban it has on free upgrades. You *might* be able to do a runaround by using an old windows 11 iso to upgrade windows 10 offline with your legit key and maybe, just maybe it will take it fait de acompli

Be aware that if you purchase one of these make sure it has a generation 8 processor or higher. Windows 10 support from Microsoft will be discontinued sometime in 2025. It is my understanding that windows 11 will not work on pregeneration 8 processors.

More cores doesn't always mean faster. The software needs to support multi threading to make use of it. Gaming systems are usually less cores like 4-8 with a higher Ghz since most games don't support big cores.

Dont do this. Spent twice the money and get thrice the pc. The motherboards in these bottleneck the shit out of everything you attach to it. Seriously I did it twice one time with this exact pc and compared. It just does not have the power to push a decent GPU either. Upgrade the power supply and it still sucks.

Companies are dumping their old tech to be fully ready for the final switch to Windows 11 by October 2025. Can this be upgraded to Windows 11? If not, you're going to want to get a USB Flash Drive or external HDD to run Linux with a GUI. That covers your online use of the PC while retaining compatibility with existing Windows software.
