Dell Optiplex 7040 Business SFF Computer Small Tower PC (Intel Core i5-6500, 16GB Ram, 256GB SSD, DVD-RW, WiFi) Win 10 Pro (Renewed)

Ive had this little guy for about a year now (since may of 2022) and it worked fine up until yesterday it turned off on me and I smelled burn like something fried. Its likely the PSU since nothing boots at all and the power button doesnt do anything so thats disappointing... Keep this in mind when buying. Also when I had first received the PC a year ago the fan noise on the PSU was a bit odd sounding so it was probably beginning to fail already when it arrived. :( EDIT: looks like it was actually a motherboard short or a capacitor that fried... cause I got a new PSU and it still doesnt boot! the PSU test was successful though so the PSU is working but yeah the motherboard is messed up. Unfortunate :(

got this as a base for a gaming build for my daughter. Plays Roblox and other simple games out the box with the onboard graphics. Simply add a graphics card and boom, youve got an entry level gaming computer for 300 $. will be buying another soon for the wife!

Easy to set up and assemble. Came super fast! Included wifi connector and microsoft.

Work

It what I expected for the price.

Got it for my son to install Linux. Came with windows 10. Runs super smooth with pre installed windows.. Mint Linux installed flawlessly. Condition is good considering that it is refurbished. Excellent value for the price. Will buy again.

The computer is fine and needed, but the keyboard you sent me is nightmare worthy. This has to be the most disgusting thing Ive ever seen. I dont want to return the whole computer, make this right.

Overall the computer is not bad but it did not come with a wifi adapter, it came with a bluetooth adapter. I had two other issues: After I started the computer and windows loaded it could not update properly. After several hours of restarting and trying to recover and update again, I gave up and downloaded the windows install iso from the microsoft website and that installed and updated just fine in a fraction of the time. The other issue is with adding a graphics card which was supposed to be possible according to the answered questions. I bought a 1050ti graphics card to install but the graphics card requires a PCIe slot and is two slots wide. The PCIe slot in this computer is directly adjacent to the power supply which leaves no room to install the card. If you have a graphics card that is only a single slot width it should fit although that wouldnt really be an upgrade over the built in graphics would it. On the good side, my unit was pretty clean when it arrived, only dirt was the blades on the case fan. It runs quiet and didnt come with all the typical Dell bloatware you get if you buy a computer from Dell. The keyboard was pretty poor but I did have a better one on hand.

I got so lucky my computer I had for years that I got for free went all blue screen of death on me and I only had 150usd to spend on a computer. Thats when I just so happen to see this computer that had much better specs than my old pc for 140+tax and that was just a sale happening in the next 9 hours at the time I saw it. It shipped super fast and set up was super easy. I have a dual monitor setup and even though it only has 1 hdmi port all you need is a display port to hdmi port adaptor and you can set up 2 screens. I only use this for streaming and web browsing I dont game though I doubt its good enough for any gaming beyond very low graphic games.

I received a refurbished dell computer from SJ computers and immediately after starting it up I was having problems with loading most apps ,I had trouble with the PC just randomly encountering an error and restarting ,this would happen a few times a day. I requested a replacement to be sent and I would return the one I had. All they did was keep calling Me from different numbers and all times of the day and asking Me to fix it. I dont know a lot about computers and They expected Me to do all types of stuff that I really didnt have the time to try and figure out. I assumed They tested these things if They are refurbishing them, I could be wrong. After waiting 4-5 days for them to Email Me a return Shipping label I requested a refund and amazon approved it. I sent it back and got My money back. Would not recommend this seller based on this experience.
