I'm going on a month after purchasing. At first I had a problem with the wireless card. Afterwards I received an automatic update from Dell which updated the Bios. After that no problem at all. Runs nice and smooth. Would definitely recommend.

The first desktop sent had a lot of issues with locking up. wouldn't do anything. After several attempts by dell to fix it over the phone with no luck , I returned it for a new one. The new one works perfectly so far. Better than expected. very Happy with this product.

1.0 out of 5 starsBlue Screen of Death within hours of unboxing it.

Reviewed in the United States on July 10, 2017

Style: DesktopVerified Purchase

Started to get the dreaded Blue Screen of Death (whea_uncorrectable_error) a few hours after unboxing it. After 4 hours on the phone with Dell Technical Support, they were still not willing to declare the PC a dud and issue a replacement. Amazon, of course, provided a frustration-free return process.I understand that things aren't always perfect, but Dell should have cut their losses after 4 hours of troubleshooting and tried to regain the trust of the customer by declaring it a dud and providing a new one. I returned it and purchased an HP Slimline 260 Desktop PC on Amazon for $50 less than the Dell.

3.0 out of 5 starsWorks in a somewhat limited way, but has serious limitations on abilityto upgrade

Reviewed in the United States on December 1, 2016

Verified Purchase

UPDATE (22 Dec 2016): discovered if you want to upgrade RAM to the full 16gb, you have to buy the specific RAM already installed or the machine won't recognize the additional RAM.

(earlier) Summary: disappointed in the limits on RAM and internal drive installation, and inability to upgrade processor. That said, I do think this computer could work for someone who isn't a serious gamer or doesn't do serious high-end graphics or video editing.

At first I was very pleased with this computer. Its processor (i5) and graphics card (Nvidia GeForce GT 730) are significant improvements over the six year old several times upgraded computer I had built. The disappointment set in as i became more familiar with the computer innards. I added a SSD only to find Dell doesn't provide a way to secure that inside the case. Unlike my older computer which had 3.5 inch drive bays and to which i could install a 2.5 inch SSD with an adapter, this Dell has a wider drive bay with a special adapter to fit the space. That adapter will hold one 3.5 inch drive, or 2 2.5 inch drives, but not one 3.5 inch and one 2.5 inch drive. (Fortunately, the internal SSD I installed doesn't have any moving parts, and I presume (or hope, anyway) that being installed without being tied down works.)

It also appears that, although the motherboard has two RAM slots, and the specifications manual says the computer can be configured for up to 128gb of RAM, that the computer has an inherent limit built in. I was told by a Dell tech assistant that the computer can only use 8gb of RAM. Another reviewer says it has a 16gb limit. For my purposes (video games,photo editing, graphic work), 8gb sort of works, and 16gb would work quite well from what I can tell if i can install that much RAM.

If, as another reviewer has noted, the processor can't be upgraded, that would be disappointing as well.

I've been using computers since I bought my Commodore 64 in 1982. Along the way, I'veupgraded subsequent PCs I have owned, and even built one from a kit, then upgraded that three times in the past six years. It seems to me that this Dell Inspiron desktop was not built with the idea that an owner would want to upgrade any of its capabilities. If i had known that, i would not have bought this computer. I would have preferred one I could buy with an i5 processor and 8gb of RAM that i could subsequently upgrade to a better i5 or an i7, and add more RAM.

Excellent computer with great specs. I got the refurbished from Overstock Planet for $299 and it outclasses everything in that price range by far. What a steal. Looks and runs like new, even came with original packaging and keyboard + mouse.

It is basically a piece of c**p, does not worth the money at all. It does not support hardware upgrade as the motherboard is specially-designed. I waste 500 bucks on this junk. Don't buy it.
