I was looking at it this morning! The 7040 is on Amazon with 16Gb for $20 more and DDR4.

Just FYI, the RAM in this is NOT DDR4. It is DDR3. I purchased this last month and ultimately returned it. The optiplex 5040 did not have a DDR4 option.

The 7040 mentioned by the above poster is DDR4, with an addition 8gb of ram for just $20 more. It's a much better deal.
For $100 more

Gets 512gb ssd
I7 - 6700
NO dvd

What do you all think?
Good / bad deal?

Thanks in advance

How does compare to the infamous $88, $99 Acer Refurbished J4125 deal that is and has been popular here..is this Dell much Better? Thanks..
Even as an older desktop, this Dell should handily outperform the J4125 Acer. CPU Mark scores are almost double for the i5-6500 versus the J4125. However, the J4125 offers lower power consumption, higher SSD and RAM interface speeds, newer architecture, and Windows 11 compatibility, although it's not upgradeable. You can generally pick up a 6th gen desktop on Ebay ready to go for less than $100, if you keep an eye out for the right deal. I would strongly recommend that you stay away from anything with a spinning drive though; they're pretty much the kiss of death for modern PC performance, and only viable for cheap bulk storage these days.
