  • QuestionThe RTX 5060 video card requires (according to Nvidia) a 550 watt power supply. The specs for this computer list PS as 450 watts. Is this correct or is the power supply 750 watts?

    Asked by GlenEcho.

    • Answer I called Dell support asking why they would offer a configuration that apparently was contrary to the nVidia spec requirement. His first response was that the 750 watt power supply upgrade option was available (if buying from Dell direct). When pressed about my point, he offered that the 550 watt spec for the nVidia 5060 (which he pointed out is a mid-range graphics card) is the maximum it can be expected to require when pushed to its limits in terms of graphical resolution and number of monitor displays being powered. That is, any combination of higher resolution and/or number of monitors would increase power requirements. The implication is that the "average" user with a single monitor for example would not push the card anywhere its limit and below its share of 460 watts. Therefore, they offer this 460 watt power supply as the more cost effective option as it is more than adequate to power the computer and this graphics card for most people. In my case, it would be for me since I'm not a gamer but just wanted a more futureproof expandable computer to replace my outdated Windows 10 PC. I suppose that makes sense since someone who is looking for higher end graphics performance probably wouldn't settle for this card and configuration. That said, the 750 watt power supply option would make it truly more upgradable and futureproof to support a better graphics card. Hope this helps.

  • QuestionHow many internal drives can I add to this tower.

  • QuestionDoes this have cd/DVD player

    Asked by Penny51.

    • Answer No. There are a number of reasons why internal optical drives are largely unavailable, though they can still occasionally be found mostly through the refurbished/used/secondhand market. The reasons include: 1. Modern PCs are pushing to be smaller and weigh less. Optical drives add weight (about half a pound) and bulk (12 cm. diameter). 2. Even Blu-ray discs top out at 128 GB, far below HDDs, SSDs, or pen/flash drives on a per-centimeter basis. 3. With the advent of fast network connectivity, cloud storage, software distributed via the Internet, and growing use of USB 3 and even USB 4 (with raw link speed of up to 80 Gbps), integrated optical drives have largely become obsolete. Should you need an optical drive (for example, for some games) they are still available, at a modest cost, as external, portable units.

  • QuestionIs the power supply hot swappable? Can it be upgraded or is it soldered on?

    Asked by Amburkins.

    • Answer The Dell Tower Plus EBT2250 Desktop does not have a hot-swappable power supply, also it is not soldered to the motherboard. It is a removable unit, but there are some important details: Upgrade Possibility: The PSU can be upgraded from 460W to 750W or 1000W, but it uses a Dell proprietary design (not a standard ATX PSU).

  • QuestionSome illustrations seem to indicate 4 PCI slots, while others show 3. Which is it? Also, since the graphic card usually takes up TWO slots, how many are actually free while the card is in place, and what type are they?

    Asked by luislast.

    • Answer The device has 1 × PCIe x16 mechanical / x16 electrical Gen5 slot and 2 × PCIe Gen3 x4 slots. The graphics card will occupy the PCIe x16 Gen5 slot (the primary graphics slot). Both PCIe Gen3 x4 slots remain free for other expansion cards.

  • QuestionCan this support 3 monitors

    Asked by MaryC.

    • Answer At least, but not necessarily at the frame rate or resolution you want. There is built-in HDMI port and a Thunderbolt, for a total of 3 monitors. There is also a separate HDMI and 3 DisplayPort connectors on the graphics card, so that would potentially be a total of 7 monitors.
