Dell ECT1250 tower desktop

The Dell ECT1250 is a new tower desktop built around an Intel Core Ultra 9 285K processor with 24 cores and 36 MB of L3 cache. It ships with 48 GB of DDR5 5600 MHz memory and a 2 TB PCIe NVMe M.2 solid-state drive. Integrated Intel UHD Graphics drives the display outputs while Windows 11 Home comes pre-installed. A wired keyboard and mouse are included in the box.

Check your display and peripherals

The system provides one DisplayPort 1.4 and one HDMI 2.1 port for video, so verify that your monitor matches one of these inputs. Front and rear USB ports include Type-A and Type-C connectors at 5 Gbps and 480 Mbps speeds alongside a headset jack and media card reader. A gigabit Ethernet port, Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.4 handle networking, and the chassis measures 324.3 mm high, 154 mm wide and 293 mm deep.

Suited to productivity and AI workloads

This configuration suits buyers who want a high-core-count CPU with an on-board NPU for AI-assisted tasks, ample memory and fast NVMe storage in a compact tower. It is not intended for users who require a discrete graphics card for gaming or professional 3D work, nor for those who need additional drive bays or expansion slots beyond the integrated feature set.
