Review: Dell OptiPlex 790 desktop

A good business system, which should be easy for IT administrators to secure through the comprehensive BIOS options, although some like CompuTrace have cost associated with them. The performance of the latest Intel Core i-series processors gives a...

Choke

While it looks like a good deal; the Stuttering performance and the slow application load time and exit time show otherwise.

Decent PC except for power supplies

I bought direct from Dell.

Good basic PC, drivers are all good. Small form factor is very nice

About half of our 35 790's have had the power supply go bad. They have been replaced under warranty, but system is down for a couple of days ; No eSATA ; No USB3

None so far
