5.0 out of 5 starsSo far so good.

Replace an aging XPS 435 with the 8500.Cheaper than Dell.com and came with 2TB hard drive.Everything seems great so far, no issues with the set up.Win8 takes a little getting used to, sort of neither positive or negative on the OS.A mix of Win and iOS.Can’t complain yet.Set up some shortcuts for drag and drop action.The PC itself is quiet, much quieter than my 435.The fan on that seemed to run 24/7.This tower runs much cooler.Dell has always had a decent PC for the $s.This one doesn’t appear any different.

5.0 out of 5 starsSo Far Excellent

So far, I have used the computer for about 4 days now and it has been excellent. It plays and edits 1080p video without an issue, GTA IV runs extremely smooth. With the quad core i7 processor and 12gbs of RAM this computer is a beast. The built in Wifi is good too, many usb 2.0 and 3.0 ports, hdmi, vga adapter for standard def…this is an amazing Dell computer. Multi-tasking is no trouble at all, and it runs very quiet. It did not come with any junkware so that was awesome. Set up was generally quick.

5.0 out of 5 starsExxceptional Computer

Reviewed in the United States on April 7, 2013

I was a die hard Windows fan until January of 2007 when I made the mistake of purchasing Windows Vista on a Dell laptop. I was so infuriated by the endless computer crashes and software hangups that I switched to Apple and my first Macbook. Since then I have purchased a Macbook Pro and two iMacs. Whomever at Microsoft gave Vista the OK for mass distribution should have been fired. My last computer purchase was a 24 inch iMac in 2009. Well I hadn’t even considered purchasing a Windows computer until two months ago. I loaded Windows 7 on my iMac and was blown away. I loved it. I decided to return to Windows all the way. This Dell computer that I now own is exceptional. The device is LIGHTNING FAST with the i7 processor and 8 GB of RAM. I will soon purchase a 16 GB module to take the total RAM to 24 GB. Why? Simply because RAM is so cheap now. Crucial.com offers a 16 GB module for $125. I also purchased the AOC i2757 monitor and it too is fabulous. I also added the Logitech K800 Illuminated keyboard and a Logitech wireless mouse. I could not be happier. Now some are unhappy that Windows 8 does not offer a start button, but really, who needs it? If you MUST have a start button, purchase Stardock’s Start 8 and you will have one, but again, what’s the point? Simply press the Windows Key and BAM you are taken to Windows 8 and the new Start Screen which is essentially the Start Menu in GIANT form. I spend next to ZERO time on the Start Screen. I prefer to meander around the Desktop Screen. You can pin virtually any app or website to the taskbar. It is very simple. Also, if you MUST use the few GREAT Metro apps available in the Start Screen, you can also pin them to the Taskbar, IF and ONLY IF you purchase another GREAT app from Stardock. The app is called Modern Mix. Like Start 8 it costs $5. Back to this system. To make a long story short, it is LIGHTNING fast, apps open INSTANTLY and I have no complaints whatsoever. This is my first Windows system since very early 2007 and I am truly glad o be back in the Windows family. Apple computers are very nice looking with their all aluminum construction. But the real question is this. Is the Mountain Lion OS more stable than, or more customizable than Windows 7 or 8? Absolutely not. Apple computers are AT LEAST 40-50% OVER PRICED and not worth the investment. I am glad I left the Apple family. I wont be going back. I AM THRILLED WITH THIS PURCHASE. So too will you be! Have no fear! BUY THIS SYSTEM! IT IS A STEAL!

4.0 out of 5 starsIt’s Great.

Everything is working fine. I mainly use it for Lightroom 4. Got it hooked up to my HDTV using the HDMI port. Played Black Ops 2 the other night (Steam had it for free over the weekend). It looked way better than console (I’ve never played a game on PC, other than Roller Coaster Tycoon 2 back in the day). I had to set the game setting to Medium in order for everything to run smoothly. My only grip about this product, although I blame the shipping people, is when I opened it I found a chip of wood jammed in the front grill of the tower. It was jammed in there good, too. Pretty sure I got most of it out, lol. But, I have no idea why there was a wood chip stuck in my computer.. Unless that’s some new computer chip from Intel that I’m unaware of.

Bought this for our son in college to replace an aging Dell. He loves it. Fast and dependable and loads of room for his games and school work. Of course his games are more important, to him anyway.

5.0 out of 5 starsExcellent Computer for Business or Personal

Reviewed in the United States on March 25, 2013

I use my computers for business. I’ve had a dell for many years, but it was really outdated and I needed a more powerful computer. I need to use multiple applications at one time, and my computer was really slow compared to what’s available now, and it crashing easily if I had too much open at one time.

I’m a fan of Dell. I’ve found their computers to be really reliable, and the service good. I’m really thrilled with this new purchase. It’s fast and I’ve been able to open and use many applications at one time. The speed is staying consistently good. Once in a while when I have too many screens open on Safari I start having problems with it (the Safari screen goes black), and I need to close down Safari and re-open. I think that may be a Safari thing though, since it doesn’t happen with Explorer, Chrome or Firefox.

I paired the Dell with a Samsung 27 inch screen, and it allows me to view several screens at one time, so I can work on multiple applications together.

So I’d definitely recommend Dell and this particular computer to anyone who needs it for business.
