Dell OptiPlex Gaming Desktop (Intel i7-8700, GTX 1050 Ti, Dual Storage)

This refurbished Dell OptiPlex tower combines a 6-core, 12-thread 8th-generation Intel Core i7 with a dedicated GTX 1050 Ti graphics card and a generous dual-storage setup: a 1TB SSD plus a 1TB hard drive. It gives you fast everyday performance and room for a whole game and media library. It suits budget gamers with a lot to store.

Who it's for

• Gamers with a large existing game library who do not want to juggle external drives
• Anyone with a big media collection or years of accumulated files
• Esports players running CS2, Valorant, League of Legends and Rocket League smoothly at 1080p, or Fortnite on lower settings
• Casual players of older or lighter AAA titles at low-to-medium settings

Key features

• Intel Core i7-8700 processor: a 6-core, 12-thread 8th-generation “Coffee Lake” CPU, a strong chip that still holds up well for gaming and multitasking.
• NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti (4GB): dedicated Pascal-architecture graphics with 4GB of GDDR5 memory, delivering real gaming performance beyond integrated graphics.
• 16GB DDR4 memory: comfortable headroom for Windows 11, multitasking and gaming.
• 1TB SSD + 1TB HDD: a full terabyte of SSD for your operating system and most-played games, plus another terabyte of traditional hard drive space for the rest of your library, media and files, 2TB combined.
• Full tower case: solid airflow and room for future upgrades, including a better graphics card down the line.
• Windows 11 Pro: genuine, pre-installed and ready to use.
• Ports and connectivity: Dell OptiPlex business I/O including multiple USB 3.0 ports, DisplayPort output and Gigabit Ethernet for a reliable wired connection.

Specifications

Good to know

• Refurbished: this is a professionally refurbished unit. Expect light cosmetic wear consistent with prior business use; every system is fully tested and inspected, including a functional test of CPU, RAM, both storage drives and GPU, before it is approved for sale.
• Honest GPU limits: the GTX 1050 Ti first launched in 2016 and is an entry-level GPU by today's standards. It is not built for maxing out the newest blockbuster releases, but it delivers genuinely playable performance backed by a CPU that will not hold it back.

Choose this i7 build when storage is the deciding factor: a 1TB SSD with another 1TB drive beside it. If you only need a smaller drive, one of the i5-8500 GTX 1050 Ti OptiPlex versions will cost less.
