Very enticing prices. I can't get past Dell with their proprietary motherboards and PSUs. They make it a gigantic pain or even impossible to upgrade to a better PSU so you can put a decent video card in these.
That's because these are business workstations and not gaming rigs. You are trying to put a square peg in a round hole.

I'm not Just talking about these particular models. Any PC is a business workstation until you stick a GPU in it. And they have many models capable of installing full size GPUs. They just don't have the power supply to support it nor do they give you options to upgrade.

I really wish these cases could accept a full size DVD drive. I have a plex server that has a Blu-ray drive with special firmware that will allow me to rip movies. It's in a very old 3rd gen i5 HP SFF desktop. It's still my main server but getting very long in the tooth. My case options for these days are VERY limited to what I can use. Even when considering a custom built maching.
I should probly look into upgrading the drive as well at this point, but I keep holding onto hope that ill come across some refurb office PC that will accept my drive.
Just buy a longer sata and power cable and place the DVD drive on top, I've done it, works fine.

Super slow PC. Max $75. Really. Either bargain hunt on eBay, easily better deals there... Or buy a new beelink AMD mini PC for $300 that is 4x faster, and brand new tech

check youTube gamer videos on how to modify these. if mem serves, there may be adapters for new power supplies that will plug into these MB. usually they pick up some kinds of wire mods on amazon. best to just put the dell model into youTube and see how others mod these things. some will say it's not worth the effort however. i am not a gamer so needing a bigger power supply is not on my list.

Edit: an AI bot suggested this: When selecting a power supply, make sure to also purchase a power supply cable adapter, as the OptiPlex 7050 requires an 8-pin power connector, which is not typically included with ATX power supplies.

it suggested the same thing for OptiPlex 5050 MFF Desktop ...

I should probably just cut a hole in the front and 3d print a mount to adapt it.

I purchased the 7050 MFF with 50% off code from this deal (or another, I don't remember)—can confirm that it works as an insanely compact Plex server shared between my girlfriend and I. I don't know how it would be for multiple users, but it's great for the price and offers a lot with what it can do in such a tiny form factor. Very satisfied with my purchase. It has only one m2 SSD slot and one 2.5" SATA slot. Works like a dream after setting up Unraid.

Yes I do win because I'm not buying a PC for $115 that is worth $40.

the Dell prices are 'starting at' and most are over $200... so might as well spend $300 and get 16GB RAM (not 8) and 500GB modern NVME (not 128 or 256 old SSD)... and a super slow CPU too!
