Typically, refurbished means something broke, it was fixed, and sold for a discount. That doesn’t exactly apply here. I ran the Dell service Tag, and the original specs are much different from the current. Just a side note, I worked in computer and laptop repair for over a decade, have several certs and was a network engineer. The comp I bought originally had an Intel i7-770k, now it has an i7-7700. Originally had 32gb’s of DDR4 2400mhz, now 16gb’s of mixed 2400 and 2666 but this i7 only supports up to 2400, so it’s not a great match. This comp came with an nvidia Quadro video card from the factory, but not as refurbished. Finally, I ran a smart test on the SSD, and it already had media ware putting it at 92% health. I’ve already upgraded the cpu to an m.2 and got a gtx1650. Now I guess I should upgrade the ram too. Still a good value, but upgrades needed to make decent for my teen children’s gaming comp.
