This refurbished Dell OptiPlex 7090 UFF is a compact workhorse with unusually strong specs for the price, especially 32GB of RAM and a 256GB SSD. The UFF design is meant to mount on the back of Dell monitors, and the multiple USB ports and power delivery support make it flexible for a tidy desk or homelab setup. The i5 1145G7 is a laptop class chip, so performance is modest and the CPU is soldered, which limits upgrades. Refurbished SSD and RAM quality also draw concern, and the unit may not include a power adapter. A solid fit if the form factor matches your setup.

  • The i5-1145G7 is a laptop-class CPU but the overall spec bundle can still fit homelab workloads at this price.

  • The OptiPlex UFF form factor is designed to mount behind Dell monitors for an all-in-one style setup.

  • The system can be powered via power delivery, which can simplify cabling for certain monitor setups.

    StewartWenger

  • The unit includes multiple USB ports, which helps support everyday homelab peripherals without extra hubs.

    drew2money

  • The CPU is soldered to the mainboard, which limits upgradeability for future performance needs.

    CharlieC9067CharlieC9067

  • The refurb SSD and possibly other components may be replaced with lower-quality parts that can fail after months of use.

    c0bra99BlueRaccoon1085

  • These units reportedly do not include a power adapter, which can add an extra purchase if your setup does not use monitor power.

  • Refurbished quality can be unreliable, including reports of items that would not power on and defective returns being resold.

Im more inclined to buy from Dell direct for little workhorse systems like these. That being said, im not crazy about refurb SSD

wow. the ram and hard drive is like half the price. Can use this as a server.

removable ram too.
You can use any computer as a server. The uff (ugly fat friend) is just a headless laptop. Both have sodimm slots if you want to hit 64gb. This processor + 64gb is just silly, though. No real use case.

These days, I don't really use my server cpu for much. It's all GPU. At peak load, my server hit something like 1/20th of capacity.

It's basically a laptop without the screen. You can get a similarly specced laptop for about the same price.
Don't know why you're downvoted.. You're 100% correct. And these do not come with a power adapter. When sold new it was an addon because it was supposed to be powered by the monitor these hook onto the back of.

The laptop will have it's own power adapter..

This CPU is very mid and lackluster but the 32gb of RAM help. You generally won't find 32gb of RAM in this price range ever. That being said, I wouldn't purchase this strictly because the CPU is such a bottleneck, especially for future proofing.
It's likely that they replaced the OEM RAM with cheap aftermarket RAM.

this is a fine deal for what it is. refurb business class laptop like the one linked earlier is probably a better value. can't go wrong either way in the current market.

It's like any place on the internet. Voting is about how people feel, not logic or truth. I recently criticized a deal. I was corrected. I said i was wrong. Pretty rare around here. Pretty rare around anywhere.

Third party refurbishers do it to reduce costs and increase margin. Supposedly it's better business.

It's a five-year-old computer probably with two 16gb so-dimms. It's not a year old server with ddr5. I can't imagine anybody would people to make a buck swapping to cheaper RAM of the same size. Now maybe a 32GB module would be worth removing and selling.
