These little computers still have all the performance you need for everyday computer tasks, and are an excellent value if you need a computer now.Zoom calls? Not a problem. Bring your own webcam though.Remote learning? Been said and done.Organizing your digital memories? 500GB of hard drive space is quite spacious for this kind of thing, and USB3 ports download them in a flash.Home movies? You have plenty enough horsepower to perform video editing (software not included), and the DVD supermulti makes writing your movies to DVD easy.Web browsing? 1080p60 youTube is not a problem for this capable little box, and an included basic WiFi dongle makes sure you get online in no time at all.Office work? USB and PS/2 keyboard and mouse support means that you don't even need to buy a new keyboard and mouse to do it. You ARE going to have to provide your own keyboard and mouse though for this specific listing, so if you don't already own a set, go find some now before you check-out. There are also models available that include a cheap keyboard and mouse set.Videos and movies? You have VGA, DisplayPort, and an HDMI adapter. This thing will connect to any screen out there, and the DVD drive will also play back your DVD movies. No Blu-Ray though.It's also very quiet and very power efficient. Power draw as I type this is only 30W, and deliberately trying to push it raised it to 65w. I can only barely hear its fans sitting two feet away from it in a quiet room. It shouldn't go much above 100w unless you start upgrading it and really pushing it.The hard drive is a little slow. But I have never found myself waiting an uncomfortable amount of time for something to load. That said, my patience is relatively long. If you are impatient, please opt for a model with an SSD installed. You'll be paying a little more for the privilege though.Most Optiplex PCs include a small speaker inside of the tower itself, connected to the sound card.It does not give the greatest audio quality, but I find it an excellent solution if your budget is too tight to allow you to buy separate speakers. It may even be better than some speakers found in cheaper monitors!This is one of my favorite little features of these computers. :DOkay. There's an elephant in the room I haven't talked about yet. So let's talk about gaming on this.Out of the box, you probably aren't going to be winning any Fortnite Chicken Dinners or whatever the kids are doing these days. This little machine is more suited for playing Farmtown or other simpler games.The integrated graphics can do SOME older or more basic games, but you're going to run into its limits sooner rather than later.Fortunately, you CAN upgrade it with a graphics card. Eventually.Right now as I type this review, the market is absolutely crazy.That, and this is the small form factor version. You can only fit low profile, single slot graphics cards in there.If you are looking to turn this into a budget gaming box, I can comfortably recommend the Yestin RX-560 LP, available here on Amazon for a decent price as I type this. It's the one that's pretty in pink, and as of my last try before writing this review, seems to be the strongest GPU you can install in one of these.With that, you can play most games available today, although you will have to turn your resolution and settings down a little to keep a playable framerate, especially in new releases.-- My seller included a card for tech support. However, I am extremely adept with computers and had no need for this service. The computer arrived in superb condition, clean inside and out, with Windows loaded and ready for me to make my account.
