Dell OptiPlex - wikipedia Dell OptiPlex Dell OptiPlex 755 ( Ultra Small Form Factor ), mounted on the back of a monitor OptiPlex is a line of desktop computers from Dell aimed at the corporate, government and education markets. The systems typically contain Intel CPUs, beginning with the Pentium and currently with the core microarchitecture ( i3, i5, i7 ) ; although Dell sells some models with AMD CPUs as well. Business - oriented components, such as Gigabit Ethernet and software such as data protection utilities, often come standard with the Optiplex.

These capacitors would bulge and leak, resulting in product failure after only a few years of use. Leaked internal documents allege that Dell knew that the computers were likely to fail, and continued to ship them. Name OptiPlex is a portmanteau of `` opti '' ( meaning optimal ) and `` plex '' ( meaning parts or units. ) Chassis The newest OptiPlex models break from Dell 's proprietary form factors and follow, for the most part, the ATX standard, usually to the Mini-ITX form factor for SFF computers, and MicroATX form factor for DT and MT computers. The OptiPlex series comes in various sizes which have evolved as the style of chassis has changed.
