14th Gen Intel Core i7-14700 processor

Built-in media reader for simple photo transfer

Powerfully Cool

My old computer came to en end after 15 years with all the upgrades it went through. So, did a deep search for a strong device. Dell is a trusted brand has proved itself. There were a few options with all the specs I needed and this one together with the deal it had was a jackpot.
First start was very smooth. Started as a new computer and transferred a few folders and docs manually (it asked if I want to use the software to transfer everything from the old one). The device is fast and responsive for everything I have used so far. Heavy business related softwares (bioinformatics), video and high resolution image processing and some gaming. Did not get any issues. Has been 3-4 months and running strong. Looks like it will be another long run with it.

I upgraded from my older PC to this because I do a lot of graphics work in LightRoom and Photoshop. Processing is more than twice my old PC and setup was fast and simple. The only slightly negative thing is that the cooling fan is a little loud and I'll be looking at installing a liquid cool option at some point.

I've worked in many an office over the last few decades and had some sharp IT people put really great equipment on my desk that far exceeded what I had at home.
A moment arrived when I needed something at home - really good - and I purchased this and it's absolutely top-notch in performance. Fast, smooth-as-silk in everything I've thrown at it. This is the pc I've wanted at home forever.
Both hardware and software run like lightning and it's an absolute pleasure every time I sit down and do anything on this Dell. Awesome in every way.

Outstanding machine. I had outgrown my old tower unit and needed a fast replacement with more storage. Geek Squad transferred my old computer content to new computer.

Works Great for 3D, rendering and vidio. Nice upgrade from my last system.
A:AnswerYes, they do. I just had it done. A old Dell (from 2008) to this new Dell XPS 8960. I am a Total tech member and it can take 24 to 72 hours depending on how much data you have on the PC.
