What Fender said. Seems decent for every day what ever you need it for. Won't blow away any new PC games. But fine for every day etc.

About 2½ years into a Dell refurbished. It has given me no trouble.

Very nice unit will do about everything you need.

Memory chip prices have been crazy for a bit, you machine specs it with 32gb DD4 ram, it can handle up to 64 so when the times right bumping that is a good investment, JMO

Nice Desktop unit, should do you well....

I think that's a solid PC. Most of us do not superfast processors.

You might check and see if you can add another 1Tb or 2TB Solid State Drive for storage.

I think its too late to tell you not to buy it. Razz

Just kidding.
I bought 2 dell refurbished PCs from amazon for the grand kids and they are still going strong. One is 4 years old and the other is 6.
I wouldn’t hesitate to get another one.

In all fairness. DDR4 is last gen MOBO. All the latest greatest is DDR5. So may be able to find something reasonably priced if a RAM upgrade is needed.

But for browsing & word processing, mail etc. I doubt it'll ever be needed.

I agree. I moved up to 1.8 TB on my current computer. previously 1 TB but heck, over the years, I keep saving documents from one computer to the next.



"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.

Just because something is legal to do doesn't mean it is the smart thing to do.
