Upvote for easy next video

Agreed. Show the small upgrades one at a time. First switch to dual channel, and show us the improvement. Maybe also the conversation with Dell about how they shipped not what you ordered. Then upgrade the CPU cooler and show the performance improvement from that also?

Agreed, I'd get Dell to send you what you ordered. I'd ask about the cpu cooler too but that isn't guaranteed. Do it with dual channel and a non crap cooler to see how the case setup performed.

@@DawidDoesTechStuff Dell back when didn't offer consumer graphics cards in the enterprise systems, I think they have realized they can sell them to certain niche markets who will take the card out and use the system for other stuff or resell with another card which is actually smart of them given how hard it is to get a graphics card at the moment. Though I'm sure some will just leave the system as is as well.

Or spend the almost nothing extra for a decent cooler, meaning you don't have to deal with either. And if you watch the Linus video mentioned, there are a few prebuilts from companies that are all made from branded off the shelf products, extremely well made, cover with great warranty and servicing, all for less than you build build it yourself - or very slightly more (but more than worth it).

If dell is cheaper then scalpers we have let the scalpers become too comfortable

Buy the prebuilt to sell the RTX 3060 in it for more than the original machine was bought for!

@@hdoan1519 That's not necessarily true.. Dell gets deals for parts for the pre-builts cheaper than the consumer market. Scalpers have to rely on the consumer market being sold out of stock to make a profit.

more broken prebuilts = more money, true points tho

I look like an accountant and I approve of this wet dream case.

Honestly it’s small, and the air intake design pattern is fine, if that case was just painted all black I’d have zero problems with it

@@rossmcwilliam3284 False advertising and I think it's against the law. I payed for something and you give me something else plus this is not good for publicity and companies live of that.

Absolutely! I would NEVER have accepted it like that! If it's not as ordered, you should never accept it like that! Either get me the system I ordered or give me a refund, it's as simple as that! It is absolutely false advertisement and extremely misleading to customers. Just because they might ship these machines to companies that couldn't care less other than it can handle Excel or whatever does it mean it's okay to ship something that just isn't up to the specs that the customer ordered! 🤔

@@RobertForslund Well, it's not really about it being okay or not, for Dell to mislead the customers like that. It's literally illegal!

@@TheNightquaker That's why they should face the consequences of their actions. Either return me a system that I ordered or give me a refund. If they wouldn't do either of that, I would file a law-suit against them. How far that law-suit would go I couldn't say, but still, they need to know that they can't just steam-roll people, or businesses any way they like and expect them to be happy with whatever they sold them! 🤔

No Its a dell.

They should send him another 16gb stick of that same RAM free of charge.

Dell has been getting worse and worse

Idk, kinda low key. I liked it, but it is built like a furnace. Cooling isn’t Dell’s strong suit. I’m actually running an upgraded optiplex rn, but I got an i5 and dual channel 8gig ram, and put an RX570 and Corsair PSU in for CHEAP, even with the surge in GPU prices. I got that all for like $300. That’s pretty damn good tbh. All of that has made me appreciate Optiplexes for what they are.

It _is_ an optipex business PC, just with a different name.

Yeah it really does. It's such a disappointing looking system.

They would blame him either way I doubt he's worried

I'm not sure what would be worse. 1x8GB ram where they forgot to add the second one, or 1x16GB where they completely ignored the order and went for single channel as per their usual shit machines.

@@Tomazack a single 1x8gb would definitely be alot worse

Guaranteed that the guy that did this goes over on his lunch break religiously.

The fine print for many pre-built's include some form of clause for 'substitutions'. You get the sum of what you ordered, not the specifics (so 1x16gb instead of 2x8gb = close enough in their world). I'd still take a poke at them for the CPU cooler though to see how they respond, that is on the dark side of dirty for a substitution given the marketing material (where custom/high performance does not equal oem boxed). You could make a case for 'inadequate' given the temps, especially if you can get it hot enough that it down clocks on a sustained load.

dark times man we don't talk about that

You 2 clearly didnt watch linus tech tips (secret shopper videos)

Yeah, buying online is way better than alternative.

one of my first computers that i could get online with was a dell xps gen 4. i don't remember what graphics card it had but i was barely running tf2. lots of great memories with that machine lol. before that, I had a precision from the same generation with dual xeons but that thing would dim my lights as soon as I turned it on.

I thought the XPS was always a premium “workstation”. I have one from 2012 with a GT640, 12 Gigs of ram, and an i7 3770. It’s old but still runs tf2 and 2013 Tomb Raider like high settings, and Bioshock Infinite high. I can’t believe it’s been in use for 9 years now 😂

@@xroyalstevenx9151 No they were never workstations they were gaming theme. The workstations were always the Precision line. Hence why your XPS has a gaming graphics card. I think when they acquired Alienware it changed the product stack. But now the entire dell lineup is kind of confusing.

@@exturkconner I never seen a gaming oriented xps. I always thought dell’s alienware and g series was for gaming.

I also generally like more simple, understated designs. The whole over-the-top designs of some computers can be cool for some, but there is something to be said about a nice, minimal case that can slot in anywhere.

it's subtle i like that

@ni6hant yeah I mean I'm grown (well sort of), I don't want my PC screaming "I'M A GAMER 360 NO SCOPE" at this point in my life.

I think the let down is that it looks just like a 300$ used dell pc bought from a company that no longer uses it for doing excel and ugly power point presentations. I literally used to have the same case 10 years ago.

Agreed, I think it looks great. Definitely inspired by the Dell Precision cases, which is a good thing

I mean, if you have the ways to upgrade the cooler than literally 100% of the problems are gone.

@@darkigor20 still not a good value when (1.)even the ran is single channel(2.)the case doesn't have enough airflow for anything basically (3.)
