A Good All-Arounder with Limitations!
The Dell Tower Plus is a good all all-rounder with a few hiccups. First, this is not going to be a desktop you buy and upgrade components. You just need another stick of RAM and another SSD! So for the PC enthusiast this isn't for you. The PSU is a weak point for this unit. Also, the motherboard is tailored to this Dell Design. Outside of that, if you want a solid all around desktop, this is not bad. Pros Thunderbolt 4 SD Card Slot Latest Nvidia 5000 Series Card Plenty of USB Ports Quiet Latest Intel CPU Amazing at Single Core Task Cons Weak PSU Proprietary Parts 8GB of Video Memory McAfee Bloatware Installed Weak CPU Fan/Cooler I had no problems plugging my 2k OLED monitor with the desktop. The desktop performed basic task like checking emails, watching videos, and browsing. The CPU only pulling 65 Watts, I think this is a good all around device. If anyone wants to dip their toes into content creation. This would be a good start. You're getting a good CPU and a starter GPU. You also get 32GB of RAM. You can even game at 1080P on most modern titles. A good all all-rounder. Not to mention it was quiet. The 5060 may not perform as good for gaming. It will do well for video editing, rendering video, and content creation. Just uninstall McAfee!

Game (AND VR) Ready!
After 3 Gaming Laptops I’m back to trying out a new dersktop. BTW this is mainly from a gaming aspect…. Normally I prefer to build my own but honestly haven’t had the time or desire to go through those steps this time around. Insert the Dell Tower Plus. It has all the speed and power I need in a gaming (and work) PC by far. In just a few seconds after you power it up it is ready to go and a snap to get set up. The boot up really is seconds. It has all the ports you’d need, from USB to the USB-C, as well as an SD card reader that I don’t need but do have some cards stored away that I’m curious whats on them. The NVIDIA GTX 5070 simply crushed with games. I’ve played a few games now including some VR ones. My Index hooked up fine and in just a little while after setting up SteamVR I was into Half-Life Alyx. At first the system crashed but after a few minutes I realized it was due to resolution scaling was set to high in the game. Once I lowered to 90% (Same thing I had to do with previous systems) it ran great and was visually stunning still. So for those of you with VR, you’re all set. I mainly play simulation games like City Skylines and Satisfactory but did fire up RE4 Remake and again it was solid. I did add an SSD drive (M.2) to have just for installing games. Took about 5 minutes and what I loved it the Motherboard had the screw on the MB. I say this as there have been times in the past the motherboard did not have the screw and I had to supply my own. Inside the case there is some good space for air flow. Not as much as I’m used to but that was when I had a full tower going with multiple fans running. I’ll definitely keep up on the temps and go from there but so far the testing I’ve done have shown to over heating issues. Bottom Line: It’s a very nice system all around. I'm very happy so far.

Premium as the previous XPS name, very capable PC
PROS: Extremely quiet Visually appealing, but minimalistic (no RGB lights) Premium build quality I love the I/O on the front panel SDD is speedy and smooth for the majority of strenuous tasks Very upgradable for RAM and storage VR Ready (out of the box) SO-SO: Price ($1500) I wish it came with at least a 5070 for this price CONS: Extremely cheap mouse and keyboard included Custom parts to the internals can cause limitations when upgrading some parts Dell has had an interesting trajectory since the days of value-centric PCs. They once catered to college students on a budget. Now, with XPS (which has evolved into "Plus"), their PCs and laptops have garnered the respect of those of us looking for a premium product beyond Apple. I currently own one of the 2024 high-end models of their XPS laptops, and it remains my favorite among the few I own. Premium is its bread and butter, and while this desktop doesn't have the flashy "premium" look, it makes up for it in its build quality and simplified, anti-gaming machine aesthetic. As premium and expensive as the tower is ($ 1,500), I'd expect a better keyboard and mouse to be included, but that's an issue that extends to most PC manufacturers. It's an interesting way to "cheapen" the product, but most of us who are serious about our PCs, more than likely, already own nice mice and keyboards. Nonetheless, it's jarring to see how cheap the mouse is when unboxing. The graphite color of the case makes this a visually appealing machine, complemented by the dual-tone silver front plate. The bottom half of the front plate has a grid of holes, adding both airflow and a touch of simple design. Again, it's not flashy, but classy compared to many "gameified" machines. I also have an ASUS ROG PC, which features a huge glass "window" that lights up like the Fourth of July. This Dell machine has a small window, and the only thing that illuminates it is the GPU inside. There are no RGB lights in the tower or inside. This makes it ideal for those who turn the lights off by default, like I do most of the time. The front panel offers a range of input and output options. You get three USB-A ports that have a speed of 5 Gbps, plus a USB-C port that supports 10 Gbps. It also features a headphone jack and an SD card slot, both of which are handy. I love the numerous options available on the front. The way my tower is positioned, it's difficult for me to plug/unplug things from it. I tend to use wired headphones when editing, and I constantly switch between using them and not, so unplugging and plugging things in is imperative. On the back of the PC, you will find the usual ports, including one more USB-C port. This should meet your needs based on the peripherals and accessories you use. If your PC doesn't have a separate graphics card, it will also feature an HDMI 2.0 port and a USB-C Thunderbolt 4 port on the back. This lets you connect up to two 4K displays. Additionally, the device features four USB-A ports, an Ethernet jack, stereo audio ports, and a Kensington lock. What makes this PC especially great is that it easily connects to a VR setup. I have a PSVR2, with the proper PC adapter, and I was able to use it extremely easily. The performance was great too! I don't do a lot of VR gaming, but I love playing Grand Turismo or Forza with a wheel, which I'm looking forward to on this PC. I respect Dell's simple latch system for removing the computer's side panel. You just need to loosen one screw at the back, and then you can pop off the side panel. This makes it so much easier to dust. Other towers of mine have up to four tiny screws that need to be loosened before they can be slid off the panel. Inside, there is plenty of space. There are removable plastic brackets on both sides of the graphics card. The slim, 750-watt power supply is held in place by a metal bracket with two screws, but swapping out the graphics card is easy. You just need to pull down a metal latch and remove a small screw. The main benefit is that you can easily replace it with newer Nvidia graphics cards in the future. To prepare for upgrades, you can also opt for a 1,000-watt power supply for an additional $50. The included Nvidia RTX 5060 is a great graphics card. It has 8 GB of VRAM. This will suffice for most modern games in smooth Ultra graphics at 1080p, but as you increase resolution and frame rate, it'll struggle a bit. However, it is the quietest machine I've ever used, by far. I tried a few games to test it out. The first was Starfield, played on Ultra settings with 2K resolution, and I was surprised by how smooth it was. I played it for a while, and only heard the machine rev up for a few minutes of intense gameplay. That's impressive! The other game I tested was Mafia III, a relatively older title. Still, I maxed out the FPS and resolution, making it a fresh experience for me. I was happy with the performance. I have a gaming laptop for more graphics-intensive gaming, so I was pleased with this PC's performance capabilities. You won't purchase this machine if gaming is your top priority. This is more of a "work machine" with the added benefit of "play." It works very well for my semi-pro photography and video editing. It's smooth, speedy, and snappy, which instantly made it my favorite machine I own to work on. The Dell Tower Plus offers good performance for a PC at this price, making it a solid choice for work tasks. Although this computer isn't primarily designed for gaming, it can handle specific gaming tasks quite well. Designers, producers, video editors, and photographers will benefit from the strong combination of the RTX 5060 graphics card and the Core Ultra 265K processor.
