Product Identity

The DELL ECT1250 is a new tower desktop built around an Intel Core Ultra 9 285K processor with 24 cores and 36MB cache. It ships with 16GB of DDR5 5600 MHz memory, a 4TB NVMe SSD, and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 graphics card with 6GB GDDR6. Windows 11 Pro is pre-installed, and a wired keyboard and mouse are included in the box.

Pre-Purchase Checks

Verify that your display can connect via DisplayPort 1.4, HDMI 2.1 or DVI to match the rear video outputs. The system provides Gigabit Ethernet and MediaTek Wi-Fi 6 with Bluetooth 5.4 for networking. Front-panel connectivity includes USB 3.2 Type-C, USB 3.2 Type-A, two USB 2.0 ports and a headset jack, while the rear adds two more USB 3.2 Type-A and two USB 2.0 Type-A ports. Ensure your workspace accommodates the tower's 324.3 mm height, 154 mm width and 293 mm depth.

Build & Daily Use

The black chassis measures 12.76 inches high, 6.06 inches wide and 11.53 inches deep, weighing 12.02 lb. A Kensington lock slot and padlock loop are integrated for physical security. The wired Dell KB216 keyboard and MS116 mouse connect via USB Type-A, occupying two of the available ports. With the CPU using an LGA 1851 socket, future processor upgrades would require a compatible motherboard, though the sealed tower design limits internal access for most users.
