Dell are effectively hot garbage e-waste... half the parts in newer
systems are completely proprietary, even the power supply and
motherboards on many of them right now. And while some are 12V only,
they aren't the new standard even.
The lower-end video cards are crap, the higher end are okay. That
doesn't go into the bloatware, and their really sleazy sales channel
tactics right now. If you're going big box builder, HP is likely a
better bet.
See "secret shopper" reviews on Linus Tech Tips and Gamers Nexus
regarding Dell products lately.
