Dell OptiPlex 7050 Micro Computer, Intel Quad Core i5-6500T up to 3.1GHz, 16G DDR4, 256G SSD, Windows 10 Pro 64 Bit-Multi-Language Supports English/Spanish/French(Renewed)

Mine arrived in excellent packaging with a generic wired keyboard, mouse, and USB 2.0 "n" network dongle. It didn't have the internal wireless system. Not ideal but works just fine.There was some damage to the finish on the housing at the back where it wasn't noticeable. It was covered up with some black permanent marker. Also, at this price point, not unexpected for a refurbished item.I'm using mine as a media station at my 4K TV. I was disappointed at how noisy the fan was but went into the power settings and found that limiting CPU to 70% and changing cooling scheme from Active to Passive in the Windows power settings makes it effectively silent. Even at 70% it has way more CPU performance than the laptop it replaced and has no problem processing video at 4k and the cheap WiFi works just fine for streaming 4k video. The HDMI passes audio through my TV to my 5.1 receiver just fine making for fantastic sound.Paired with an Air Mouse remote control https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DXFPSSSK it's just about perfect for a home media and internet surfing setup. I went from 3 remotes with my Roku to just 1 and ditched the ads while gaining the ability to surf in a real browser.It uses a SATA SSD and has a free M.2 SSD slot and a free M.2 WiFi slot if you wanted to upgrade or ditch the dongle and use something more modern with an external antenna. I get full bars and it's plenty of storage for me, so I probably won't bother with upgrading anything.Over-all I'm extremely happy with my purchase. If it were more expensive, I might knock it down to 4 stars, but for this price you can't ask for much more.

Been using this refurbished computer for about 9 months and it has been working great. Only issue is no built in WiFi but I got a USB adapter and it works fine. Also I found out when trying to connect a touch screen monitor that the USB-C connection is not the type that supports video. However I was able to make it work with the USB-C for the touch function and an HDMI for the display. Good specs in a compact form for the price.

Update: I received a replacement and it is in much better shape. Still cheap 100mb wireless n usb. This one is much cleaner and has the correct power supply. Another thing I forgot to mention was packing. The box is twice as wide as the insert to hold the machine, so it and the power supply are surely smashed around inside the box as neither was in the padding upon arrival. I'll keep this one as it runs, but this experience has me questioning Amazon Certified Refurbs.Very poor refurb. Looks like it was just reboxed and nothing of refurbishing occurred. The video port didn't work, the case was sticky and the case screw looked like it was rusted or had coffee poured on it. Being an IT guy, I opened the case and was shocked. The board was broken and was covered in dust. And it was loose dust that could have been blown out, but wasn't. The video port cable was broken off the board and just hanging. The power supply was the wrong one, under powered and it had a dongle adapter to make it fit. But even worse, the DC plug was bent out of the jacket and definitely a fire hazard. There was no on board wifi, but they included a 20yo technology N usb wireless adapter.I'm not sure who is remanufacturing these, but it's time to find another company because they are not doing anything but maybe wiping them off and reboxing. Not even qualified to include the right power supply. I've purchased many refurbs before from Amazon, but this by far was the worst. No QC at all.

I needed a compact Windows machine for my crowded desktop.Primarily for microprocessor programming (maker/arduino stuff)The front USB ports come in very handy, and the small form factor means it is tucked in a corner.250GB SSD is plenty for most people - there is also a slot for a 3.5" drive inside.Graphics are solid when I run it directly connected to a monitor.It is very quiet.Since it had Windows 10 Pro, the license permitted a Windows 11 Pro upgrade.Here is the trick, it won't upgrade through the Windows Update screen. Find a 16GB thumb drive, go to the MS website and have it create a bootable thumb drive with windows install media.You'll need to go into the bios and enable USB boot support - then have at it.I decided to upgrade to a 1TB SSD (M.2 NVMe) available here for $60ish before the install - this also saved the Win 10 Pro on the old SSD, just in case.I'm typing from the machine now - Win 11 Pro accessed from a chromebook through an RDP client!I did go into the windows performance section of setup and chose max performance. There is no need for this to go to sleep - there is no spinning drive. Just shut down the display when idle.Why the second one? I set it up for my neighbor! Her old mini is dying a slow death.Boot time on this one is great too!If you can do a little tech stuff (or accept win 10 EOL) this is a great little machine.

After reading other reviews I I think I first have to say that my PC came with a USB network interface card taped to it and read to use. My PC also came with the correct power supply and adapter. I believe others may not have had the same experience, but mine came with everything that was described and needed.Computer runs great and will work fine for what I have intended for it, streaming videos to my TV.

I gave it 5 stars for what it is. It is a decent computer for little money. Perfect for use as a media server. I was going to replace its Windows 10 with Linux as it wouldn’t upgrade to Windows 11, and therefore , an end to security updates. It stated the cpu wasn’t compatible. But I thought I would try a a fresh install of Windows 11 from a USB stick, lo and behold, it installed without issue.The computer itself is in good shape and it came with everything needed to get up and running except a monitor. It is compact and uses a usb stick for WiFi connectivity which it came with.
