DELL OptiPlex 3020 Tower desktop PC i5-4570 3.2 GHz 8 GB DDR3 128 GB SSD + 320 GB HDD

Business desktop with dual storage

The Dell OptiPlex 3020 Tower desktop PC combines a 3.2 GHz Intel Core i5-4570 quad-core processor with 8 GB of DDR3 memory. A 128 GB SSD handles the Windows 10 Professional 64-bit operating system and applications, while a 320 GB hard drive provides additional capacity. Integrated Intel HD Graphics 4600 drives the display output. A DVD-RW optical drive, keyboard and mouse are included.

Office users and home basics

This system suits office workers, students and home users who need a reliable tower for web browsing, document editing, email and legacy business applications. The dual-drive layout keeps boot times short while retaining space for local files. Buyers who want more storage, discrete graphics for gaming or creative workloads, or newer processor architectures should look at other configurations.

3.2 GHz quad-core CPU decides fit

The Intel Core i5-4570 running at 3.2 GHz with 6 MB cache and a 3.60 GHz turbo frequency is the single specification that determines whether this tower matches the workload. It delivers enough single-thread and multi-thread performance for everyday productivity, but it cannot meet the demands of modern compute-intensive tasks or newer instruction-set requirements.
