I've worked in IT for years now and I've never understood why the ventilation on OEM towers is so dreadful. They make some really neat design choices with cable management, board layouts and the like, but then they get stuck in the 1990s with a single crappy rear exhaust fan, a miniscule PSU fan and almost no gaps for air to get in. When the system's an i3 and integrated graphics you can understand, but when there's a high-end gaming or workstation GPU in there - which doesn't even evacuate rearwards - it just becomes baffling.

The fine print for many pre-built's include some form of clause for 'substitutions'. You get the sum of what you ordered, not the specifics (so 1x16gb instead of 2x8gb = close enough in their world). I'd still take a poke at them for the CPU cooler though to see how they respond, that is on the dark side of dirty for a substitution given the marketing material (where custom/high performance does not equal oem boxed). You could make a case for 'inadequate' given the temps, especially if you can get it hot enough that it down clocks on a sustained load.

It would be interesting to see you contacting dell support about the memory stick and seeing how they handle the issue

I'm rocking a 2 year hold prebuild dell that's been mostly cool for me. I've had two minor issues with it. One was a Windows problem, not dell's fault. The other was the Optaine drive failed. It was a catastrophic failure, went into an endless boot cycle. However, the dive isn't really needed, it just boosts the hard drive speed a little. I've had a noticeable, but overall slight hit in performance. Mostly things just take a little longer to load than they should, but I'm ok with that.

Hi what software are you using to enable of ussage of gpu, fps, tempature? That overlay telemetry? How I enable for my system? Ty

So you almost have a decent system there, just need a case, motherboard, cpu cooler, power supply, and another 16Gb stick of ram.

I know you did this video a while ago but I am curious you input on these tiny power supply's. Are they upgradeable? Is the term for that PSU 'mini-ITX'? And would even your average 600+ watt power supply fit?

Hey Dawid, I just recently came across one of these Dell XPS machines myself, except this one is from several generations ago. It has a 4th gen i7 with a radeon r9-270 in it!

Okay so wait I’m confused just got into building my own pc and opted to get a i5-9400f (single fan water cooled) with dual channel ram 😅 and a gtx 3060. How badly does that affect performance?

Not going to lie, I actually liked the look of the case.

I also generally like more simple, understated designs. The whole over-the-top designs of some computers can be cool for some, but there is something to be said about a nice, minimal case that can slot in anywhere.

Idk, kinda low key. I liked it, but it is built like a furnace. Cooling isn’t Dell’s strong suit. I’m actually running an upgraded optiplex rn, but I got an i5 and dual channel 8gig ram, and put an RX570 and Corsair PSU in for CHEAP, even with the surge in GPU prices. I got that all for like $300. That’s pretty damn good tbh. All of that has made me appreciate Optiplexes for what they are.
