   I’d give this a zero star if it was possible. After I received the PC, I went through the automated set up process and found myself looking at a Windows 11 screen. I then went to the Dell site to get any driver updates that were slated for this machine. That’s when the Dell site said this machine does not have the hardware necessary for windows 11. Really?? It’s running 11 right now.

   So I went to Microsoft and installed the PC check software and asked it to check the PC. Well, guess what? Microsoft says this PC is not compatible with windows 11. Apparently the I7 processor chipset is too old to properly run windows 11.

   When, in a chat, I brought this information to Amazon customer service, then ran their own research and agreed that the machine is not a windows 11 machine. Amazon offered to pick up the PC and provide a refund, which I accepted. UPS picked up the machine this morning.

   Moral of the story? The I7 processor in this machine does not support windows 11. Stay away from this machine!!

   Not a bad upgrade for small investment. This replaced a vintage 2020 Lenovo that was having trouble keeping up with current demands.

   The PC appears to be new with no scratches, dings or other defects in the case or the hardware. It comes from the reseller very bare bones with an inexpensive keyboard, mouse and Wi-Fi USB.

   Here are the Pros and Cons of this purchase:

   Pros

   – Looks and acts new
   – Meets all the specifications on the listing
   – Price was very good for an upgrade to a Quad Core I7 engine
   – Win 11 preinstalled and the updates took place quickly
   – FAST response o a question I had
   – No tariff on a product shipped from Canada
   – Pleanty of USB, HDMI and other ports
   – Nice and stable

   Cons:

   – Took two weeks to arrive (ships from Canada)
   – WiFi is via a slow USB that I suppose can be upgraded
   – No CD/DVD drive
   – Setup required access to the internet
   – Lots of Microsoft bloatware included
   – The one I got was originally built in 2023

   Overall, I’d buy this again.

   This PC arrived in excellent condition. It was very easy to setup, connect to the internet and finish setting up the PC. The PC is fast , boot time is excellent once the initial update had run. I am very pleased with everything about this purchase, especially the price when compared to a new PC. I would buy again when the need arises.

   2025 0820/UPDATE: It’s been one month since I received this computer, I thought, I should write an update on its performance. It’s supposed to be a Dell Optiplex, 32GB RAM and 1T Hard Disk PC with 3.60GHz i7 7700 processor.

   Honestly, it doesn’t behave any better than my old desktop, which I couldn’t upgrade to Windows 11. I am also experiencing a lot of issues with Office 365, which I subscribe to annually. I have done some research on the issues, and it appears many are experiencing similar issues with Office 365 on Windows 11. Overall, therefore, ZERO complaints so far about this particular purchase. I chose this PC because the specs matched my old Dell Inspiron (i.e. i7-7700, 3.6GHz). I definitely recommend purchasing used computers from this seller. I will return for another update only if the machine stops working within a year (if it dies on me before August 2026).

   INITIATE THOUGHTS ON THE PURCHASE:
   Received it on Thursday, July 17th, 2025 as promised. Packaged was A++. Dell Optiplex i7-7700 with 32GB also came clean and ready to use. Had to go through the usual windows 11 install and Office 365 install. Then, got a list of drivers, approx 12 of them, that needed to be updated, which I did, hassle free.

   All the specs were accurate, as advertised. I set-up the computer and tested all the ports. VGA port on the computer is male, not female as I expected it. The rest of the ports appear to be working fine. Now, all I have to do is WAIT to see how long the computer lasts me.

   So far, works great! Am happy with my purchase. If it lasts me 3 years, I will be super happy and will revise (upgrade) my rating. But, for now, shipper gets 5/5 stars. Product gets 3/5 stars (like I said, it is a renewed PC, let’s see how long it lasts because others have complained it stopped working after 1 week and gave a “blue” screen). Fingers crossed all will be well.

   Great value for a high performance desktop PC. I bought two of these for my family. My reason for just 4 stars is when setting up windows 11 pro, it asks for connectivity, actually it demands it. So I tried my wifi (I have several in my house luckily). It found all of them however, it would not connect. I finally just used ethernet and continued on through setup. Turns out, the wifi and bluetooth are both on 2 usb adapters in the back of the box (NOT PICTURED ABOVE). The wifi is an older one with only a 2.4 mhz antenna. Other than that, I’m pleased with system and will add a newer adapter.

   A lot of negative reviews come from ppl who don’t understand how to use it. You will need an ethernet cord

   This is a great little machine. It’s got everything I need. It’s fast, set up quickly and easy, it has plenty of USB plugs and it’s just a small, block box setting on my desk.

   I looked around and a machine with this mu storage was 900. It came with everything but the monitor. I did however replace the keyboard and mouse with wireless ones because I hate the wires.

   BUYER BEWARE. Worked well for about 1.5 years, but then the hard drive just… kicked the bucket. The computer would not turn on. Spent $200 to replace it with a local business, but less than a month later it has AGAIN stopped working. I bought this item because it was cheap and seemed like a great deal, but now I wish I’d spent FAR more money on a reputable computer with real tech support.

   Perfect, (so far). Was as clean inside as any factory-new machine. Runs extremely cool, fast, and silent. No scratches, dents or dings. It actually looks as if it was never used, so YRMV. And yes, it runs Windows 11 just fine. (I’ve no idea what some of the reviewers saying otherwise are talking about.)

   All in all, a superb buy.

    Easy setup, with the usual few rounds of Windows updates. It’s worth it to go ahead and get them all over with at the beginning. I’m very happy with the computer. It’s plenty fast for what I do (light gaming, streaming video), with pretty good graphics for a business-class PC. I’ve had it running for three days, and I have no Cons to report. Unbox it, plug it up, update it, and go. I definitely recommend this computer for the budget-conscious user, and STG’s customer service is top notch. I found that out because of a previous computer I bought from them. They were helpful and courteous, and when I needed to return it there was no hassle at all.
