- After the new Apple iMac being available in different colours, is Dell trying to play at that too?
This is the Dell Inspiron 3910 Desktop PC in "Mesh Blue", well the front panel is, but that's it! It's a light and roomy small mid tower desktop PC with SATA cables for an additional 2.5" or 3.5" drive but there's nowhere suitable to add it!
This is a fairly quick PC with an Intel Core i5 12400 CPU and 8GB of single channel memory and a 512GB M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD drive.
Here's our first look at this and it's a basic home use machine.
This is a republished video with updated audio track.
I don't know who may find this useful today. But in a few years when those things reach second hand market this is going to be a very useful video.
If you look on the inside of the front panel you should see the mounting suggestions for 2.5" and 3.5" drives cast into it. A plastic Dell caddy is needed!
I would suggest you could use one of those 2.5 ssd caddies in place of the DVD Rewriter as people don’t generally use the rewriter anymore.
external drives work wonderful with this system I personally use an 8tb external
My office desktop has a 13700k and I suggest to anyone who has a 12400 cpu to upgrade, those extra "E-cores" are great. I can cpu crypto mine at 100% on the "P-cores" and use a web browser on the "E-cores" and there is ZERO lag. I've even played Batman: Arkham Asylum at a locked 60fps at 1440p (older game) with all settings on high using the "E-cores" and Intel igpu 770 graphics while crypto mining with the "P-cores" and a rtx 3090. It's almost like having 2pc's in 1. My gaming pc is a 5800x3d with a 4090 but I can only do one thing at a time with that pc. My only complaint is the 13700k uses a LOT more electricity in comparison to the ryzen cpu.
Virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) supported
goood review
6:21 - That's the main con of this PC: minimal watts power supply. You may upgrade but ONLY to Dell's PS
the front cage is the spot that Dell says can support a 3.5 or 2.5 inch drive.
right where you are touching at 8:26
The spot you picked for a 2,5" drive is exactly where it or a 3.5" drive can ve installed. There are even dedicated screw holes for it.
Is it compatible with rx 5600xt ?
£579 is way too steep for that computer and I'd expect at least 16gb ram and an 1tb NVMe SSD drive for that price.
I personally always recommend people to stay well away from computers targeted to home users. They are inferior and I always recommend people to buy ex buisness machines as you know they have to be made properly and to last unlike the garbage home computers that the likes of Currys sell.
Either way it's garbage. It'd barely be enough for a light office use, and Dell (or any other OEM) doesn't want you to upgrade it - that's why PSU and MB are weird in these PCs.
This is a very small box stuffed with proprietary and very cheaply made parts that is almost sure to be a headache when it comes to something more than adding an extra RAM stick or connecting a second drive. If you try to insert a better CPU, it might not pass the POST stage while booting up - because Dell locked down the motherboard to some specific Intel models. When it comes to upgrading the PSU (I mean you can use the adapter and use the standard TFX PSU, but there are some quirks), look on online marketplaces, because Dell won't sell you more powerful model that easy.
