The only thing I find a bit annoying is that you have to flex the drive caddy in order to get two drives in it. That scares me a bit every time as I don't want to break it.

    I had that problem with my Ryzen 7 1800X and while running Kubuntu 18.04. There is the C6 state that needs to be disabled. I used someone’s script to do that. If I didn’t and I left my PC on all night, by morning, the OS might be frozen. It seem to lockup in 3 to 6 h. I know since the PC shows the time. If you reboot, you have to run the script again. Another solution would be to recompile the kernel with some changes. I have a Ryzen 5 3600 now and this problem is not present.

    I don't think it was done for upsell reasons. I find that most SFF systems aren't good candidates for running better-performing graphics cards. The PSUs for these computers are only rated at 240W. A real gaming graphics card draws more than that, assuming you can even find one that fits in the case, and there's no upgrade for the PSU unless you're keen to design it yourself. The graphics card in the OptiPlex 5055 is really nothing more than a substitute for integrated graphics, since that Ryzen CPU doesn't support integrated graphics. About 10 years ago, I worked part-time for a school with a computer lab that was outfitted with Lenovo ThinkCentre M71 series slim towers. The students were more than a bit rough on them, and I had to keep the lab running on a budget, so when I encountered a system unit with its VGA port partially torn out, I needed to shop for a compatible graphics card to try to bypass it. Looking back on that plan with what I know now, I'm not sure this would have worked in the first place, because I've encountered a lot of motherboards won't POST if there's anything wrong with the integrated GPU, even if a graphics card is present. But it didn't matter, because at that time, I couldn't find any graphics cards with specs that called for a PSU smaller than 300W, and these ThinkCentre M71s had 280W PSUs. Officially, there was a 320W PSU available for those slim towers, but I couldn't get one for some reason. I ended up retiring that computer. I know that graphics cards aren't power-hungry all the time, but I've also learned, the hard way, that short-changing them is a bad idea. In 2017, I bought a couple of Dell XPS 8920 towers, which came from Dell with NVidia GTX 1080 graphics cards installed, for an architect. But I found out after the fact that Dell shipped those towers with the exact same 460W PSU that they used in the XPS 8920 with only integrated graphics. They weren't enough, and whenever the architect's CAD software started using those graphics cards, the computer would freeze, blue-screen or just shut off. I contacted Dell support, but their position was that as long as the computer booted and ran without an error, there was nothing wrong with it; they had never made a claim that it was suitable to any particular task. I ended up replacing the stock power supplies with 850W ones. (850W was probably overkill, but they were only a few dollars more than 750W ones at the time, I figured better safe than sorry.) Problem solved.

    Here's the thing... you're not stuck with single slot cards. Also, this isn't a specific issue to the 5055. This has been an issue for the SFF Optiplex systems since the 3020, 7020 and 9020. Not sure why Dell made this stupid decision, but there are options. The x4 slot is open ended and you can totally install a dual slot x16 card. Many people do this, and yes, there's a hit to performance but it's not even close to a big as you might think. You can absolutely install an s2000 in here and be good to go. Another route people like to take is to just replace the power supply with an HD Plex unit, which then gives you the room you need to install a dual slot card in the x16 slot. Lastly, you could always resort to a riser cable.

    Another youtuber did tests with the 3020 and found it to be about a 10% decrease in performance, but I might if you can fit a card that's twice as good as say the GT1030 which is otherwise what you're limited to, then it's still worth it.

    @@loganparker4184Are you sure it was the 3020? I should have noted that the 3020 does not have the x4 slot, just an x1 slot that you can't install and x16 card in. Anyhow, that sounds about right, and going with the new 3060 6GB or an A2000 over something like the RX 6400 is well worth it, as it will perform better. If you get an XE3, you can even run a 4060. No reason to be running a single slot card in these systems. There's really nothing all that good with a Gen3 slot. Best I could suggest is the WX 4100 or a single slot 3050 or A2000 off the grey market.

    I run a home TrueNAS SCALE box with a Ryzen 5 1500 and A320 motherboard in and did indeed have issues with it crashing every 2-3 days in TrueNAS Core and TrueNAS SCALE. The issue is the hardware uses some advanced C-states for power management that aren't properly supported by some OSs, so when it is sitting at idle a long time it tries to use one of these C-states to step-down the power draw and promptly crashes the kernel. Turning these off in the BIOS makes it draw a bit more power but totally negates the crashing. You may have dodged that bullet when you installed sysfs-utils and manually set the CPU governors. I don't really know enough about that tool or the relative governor settings vs C-states to know for sure.

However, last year I added a second server to my homelab and moved all of my VMs onto it, and then I started having issues. Every 2 or 3 weeks server stopped responding. I fixed it by manually disabling C6 state and it ran fine ever since.

    Just because the x16 slot is actually full x16 doesn't necessarily mean it will support a full 75w from the slot in these OEM machines. I would check documentation to try and see what wattage is supported on that full slot before putting another gpu in. An i5 6500 system i worked on in the past only supported 45w from the slot if I'm remembering correctly.

    I guess it is because of state C6. I used someone's script to turn it off. I had a Ryzen 7 1800X a while ago. The problem is not present with the 3600, which is what I have now (same motherboard).

    I had an i5 6th genversion of these overheat. Linux falsely thinks it's a laptop and controls a not connected fan pwm. I made a service for changing the fan between low mid or high based on cpu temp and it was solid. Fan control is locked down so you can't use the pwm directly

    you may be able to put this into a different case and use a better ps then have room to run a better gpu - this was good content and squarely in sweet spot for value refurb...the cpu attachment for the cooler is excellent, has many usb3 connections - would make a good 40g nas - it probably will run fine headless...networking is probably the weak link but with raid0 ssd and 2.5gbe it could be a nice home server and it looks good plus good pwr envelope - much less without a gpu....the low price could make it a decent cluster node - tough that it is not that upgradeable but you can't have it all - am4 platforms should get much cheaper as we get closer to zen5...overall good due diligence on this review!

    If you're in the market if an OEM business PC like this, my advice is double check the BIOS support, I've learned this for experience, and seems to be common with Dell where they will not release future BIOS updates to support later microcode to unlock the motherboard to support later CPUs. For example, I bought a Dell Optiplex 3060, the mini form factor, that came with an Intel 8100T for £50, I had no intention of upgrading the CPU at the time, but I did discover the motherboard will take a 9th Gen CPU, and I'd think about sticking in a 9500T for a little more CPU horsepower, however Dell do not release the microcode to allow that (probably to force businesses to buy new units, not so good for keeping them out of landfill when the public get their hands on them). However Lenovo's equivalent the M720Q does have the microcode support for 9th Gen Intel; I guess that's exactly why the Lenovo units can sell for twice the value, I don't know about HP as when I was buying HP units seemed to be less available. If you are thinking, or might consider in the future, to upgrade these second hand PCs down the line, just check out the Dell, Lenovo etc forums to see if BIOS updates did allow an upgrade path, just imagine if a 3rd gen Ryzen APU could have been installed, it wouldn't have been bad at all.

    If you can edit the bios manually, you may be able to add support for newer CPUs. Unless dell locked the ability to write to the bios chip. Then putting a 5600G or 5700G would possibly be the best bet without a dedicated GPU, considering how powerful those integrated graphics are. If not, then RX 6400 or any similar half-height single-slot GPU that fits in addition to whatever is the best CPU you can put in there without stressing the motherboard's power delivery.

    @@HardwareHaven it's actually pretty easy as long as you have the right kind of software. If it is right, then you will have everything laid out in front of you, including various sections of the BIOS, including one called "CPU microcodes" or something along those lines. Inside that section, you can add or remove whatever microcode for a CPU that you want, and it should just work. Whether it does, well, not for me to say, but plenty of people did that back in late 2010s to install various mutant CPUs or engineering samples for LGA 1151 and LGA 1151v2.
