Dell - Inspiron 3020 Desktop - 13th Gen Intel Core i5 - 8GB Memory - Intel UHD Graphics 730 - 512GB SSD - Mist Blue
- Key Specs
- Processor Model: Intel 13th Generation Core i5 (Your computer's processor is like its brain. Working in combination with system memory, the power of the processor determines the complexity of software you can run, how many programs you can have open at the same time, and how fast those programs will run. Most computers feature an AMD, Intel or Snapdragon processor.)
- Storage Type: SSD
- Total Storage Capacity: 512 gigabytes
- System Memory (RAM): 8 gigabytes (Random-access memory (RAM) is a computing device's short-term data storage, which allows active information to be accessed quickly. The size and type of RAM determines how efficiently the device can handle large amounts of information at one time. For example, gaming or video editing requires more RAM for optimal performance.)
- Graphics Type: Integrated (Dedicated graphics uses a separate graphics card for processing video images. Because it does not use memory from the system's RAM, there is no extra burden on the CPU and graphics are processed more efficiently. Integrated graphics shares system RAM to process video images.)
- Graphics: Intel UHD Graphics 730 (Often referred to as a "graphics processing unit" (GPU), this device is responsible for displaying image content and decoding/encoding video content in programs and games.)

- CPU Boost Clock Frequency: 4.6 gigahertz (Actual central processing unit (CPU) speed may vary by device configuration and design. The maximum rate at which the processor is able to execute tasks, typically only used for a short period of time as needed. This rate may temporarily boost the processor's performance, but may result in overheating, shutdown, or damage to equipment if sustained.)
- Number of CPU Cores: 10-core (A core, or "brain" of a CPU, allows it to receive and execute instructions. Each core can work independently or together to perform parallel operations.)
- Number of CPU Threads: 16 (Generally, the more threads, the faster and more responsive the operating system.)
- CPU Cache Memory Level: L3
- L3 Cache: 20 megabytes (Cache memory, also called CPU memory, is random-access memory (RAM) that a computer microprocessor can access more quickly than it can access regular RAM.

Product Manuals
Q: Can this support 3 monitors?
A: I'm bringing mine back because you need a special wires to connect the monitor and a monitor that takes the special wires. Guess I could upgrade, but I'll just bring it back and get something I like, wanted to go a little cheap but by the time I buy everything I need to use it would be cheaper to buy a better one which I should have done to start, Dell support was no help at all
Q: Does it play and write CD's?
A: This desktop includes a built-in DVD+RW optical drive that can read from and writes to CDs and DVDs.
A: External speakers required.
A: I did my own transferring from my old computer to my new computer. Get a portable hard drive or large-capacity portable SSD or flash drive. (I had a 2TB portable HD, but anything 512GB or larger will do.) Copy/paste anything from your old computer which can't easily be downloaded or installed from a CD-ROM/DVD-ROM to the portable storage medium. Then attach the portable storage medium to the Dell tower AFTER basic setup is complete, and copy/paste from the portable storage medium to the Dell tower. Just make sure you're copy/pasting to the equivalent of where you were used to accessing things on your old computer. (F.ex., Documents should be copy/pasted to Documents, anything which was in Program Files x86 should be copy/pasted to Program Files x86, etc.) If your old computer was pre-Windows 11, download current drivers for any peripherals such as printers, rather than installing old drivers from a CD-ROM or DVD-ROM. I was able to install an old version of MS Word from the original media (don't recall if it was a CD-ROM or DVD-ROM) without any problems. You will get "encouraged" to spring for an MS Office 365 subscription during the hardware setup (a trial version is pre-installed). If you're comfortable with the MS Office version you were using on your old computer, though (and for which you still have the original discs), go ahead and install that; you'll be fine.
Q: Does this tower have Bluetooth?
A: Yes. It has integrated Bluetooth/wi-fi.
Q: Does it have an optical drive, and if so what type?
A: Yes, this desktop includes a built-in DVD+RW optical drive.
A: Yes, the RAM on this desktop can be upgraded to 16 GB with a compatible RAM module in any one of the following configurations: 16 GB, 1 x 16 GB, DDR4, 3200 MHz or 16 GB, 2 x 8 GB, dual-channel DDR4, 3200 MHz. The maximum RAM this desktop supports is 64 GB in the following configuration: 64 GB, 2 x 32 GB, dual-channel DDR4, 3200 MHz. For more details, we recommend contacting the Dell technical support team for assistance after purchase. They are available on Facebook and Twitter(@Dellcares).
Q: Does it include mouse keyboard and monitor
A: I think it includes keyboard and mouse, but no monitor. Ours was open package and didn't have anything besides the system unit, but that was enough for us, we reused old ones from previous computer.
