About this deal

I've been a computer-tech writer and editor for several decades, and a photographer who writes about photo techniques and equipment for over a decade. My first job in the tech press was as a writer for Compute! magazine, where we used Commodore 64s from Circuit City as word processors. I next became the editor of Computer Dealer, offering advice to computer retailers, then moved on to Personal Computing as an executive editor, where I developed the magazine's benchmark suite. I held several positions at the massive Computer Shopper magazine before becoming editor in chief. While at Computer Shopper (owned by CNET Networks at the time), I edited bi-annual issues of Technology Review as a joint project with Fortune magazine. Unheard of flexibility: The Ultra PC module hides in a custom monitor stand capable of supporting up to 40" displays, mounts to an arm or on the wall for a versatile all-in-one experience. The Height Adjustable Stands, Dell MSA20 Arm * and Offset VESA mount, or the wall mount options respond to users’ needs across multiple use cases and deployment scenarios. IDC Whitepaper: “Optimizing Performance with Frequent Server Replacements for Enterprises” commissioned by Dell Technologies and Intel, March 2021. Results are based on interviews with 18 IT practitioners and decision makers at midsize and large enterprises and a web survey of 707 IT practitioners and decision makers at midsize and larger enterprises using Dell Technologies server solutions across 7 industries. See full whitepaper: https://www.delltechnologies.com/resources/en-us/asset/white-papers/products/servers/server-infrastructure-resiliency-enterprise-whitepaper.pdf The OptiPlex 3090 came in last by a whisker on the HandBrake transcoder, at 10 minutes and 29 seconds, 7 seconds slower than the Asus ExpertCenter. The iMac was first. Any business environment where mainstream PC performance is expected, along with the ability to keep that PC out of the way, hidden or physically secured.

On Cinebench R23, the OptiPlex 3090 came in third, with 7,868, behind the 5090's 7,991 and Asus' top score of 8,178. Though the iMac 24-inch was last, with 7,808, only 370 points separated the four, so it's a very close field here. And on Geekbench 5.4 Pro, Apple's iMac 24-inch, with its M1 processor, was best with 7,443; the OptiPlex 3090 came in third, with 5,168, behind the 5090's 6,754. Desk-centric and remote task workers, or institutional collaborators who need an desktop that will deliver the business-critical features they expect. Dell Technologies Unified Workspace is transforming the employee experience and ensuring IT has proactive, predictive and automated solutions to deliver on the promise of a modern workday, while simplifying their ability to deploy, secure, manage and support their environment. Hard drive retention: Hard drive retention is not available on models with a soldered hard drive, including XPS 9315 2in1, Chromebooks or Venue tablets, except the Venue 11 Pro. Despite that, the 3090 runs quietly, even under heavy loads during testing. It is hard to tell whether the fan is coming on, even with your ear against the exhaust grate.

Ready for every workplace

The 200-watt power supply in our 3090 tester is sufficient for limited add-ins like extra drives or a Wi-Fi card, but if you require a separate, light-hitting graphics card, the tower version of the OptiPlex 5090, with its 260-watt supply, might be a surer bet. (Even that, though, won't power a GeForce RTX or Radeon RX bruiser of a card; we're talking about cards like the GeForce MX, which might enhance the multi-display functionality over the integrated graphics.)
