This is one of the best purchases I have made. It has been a month since I got this PC and it has been nothing but great. It has a Xeon processor that was $1k when it came out four years ago. This is a server grade technology. I purchased a SSD drive for the OS and use the 1TB spin drive it came with just for storage. I run Linux on it (Ubuntu) and it is lightning fast. One thing I had to do is open up the power supply and oil the power supply fan. It was noisy and now the whole computer is absolutely quiet and almost impossible to hear.

I purchase this in the winter of 2016 and I love it. It has a dedicated video card , #2 500 gb hard drives that 's 1 terabyte 1000 gb's. It is also set up for Raid . The ower came with a operating system it also has 12 gb if DDr3, and has room for more .I dont use DDR 2 as most used towers are. Even though DDr2 still works fine are. This is called a workstation because that is what it was built for HARD WORK and durability. This tower serves as a server . I love this computer it's heavy strong and it is the definition of quality and it is VERY VERY FAST. You have to look for one with the DDR 3 or graphic's cars because theirs a variety on here . Mine arrived fast and was very well packed in a computer box . I would recommend this for anyone ,even if it has less memory and smaller hard drives . I'm never going to use all that space ,it's just available if needed. and the 2 hard drives allow for endless configurations. Upon arrival you just plug it in ,connect and goRead full review

I got this computer for video editing because my IT teacher in my college told me that the processor in this model is perfect for my tasks I need for. The computer is limited on space so you can't really add piles of hard drives and get a massive hard drive. Always look for Dell corporate computers because they are rugged and they can take a beating. Dell wants to give high end computers to companies so they can have good relations with the companies so the ITs can come back for more computers.

This t3500 is the Best Computer I've ever owned,..coming from a dual core dell optiplex small form..this you can upgrade your graphics card with the 1 connector provided such as the GTX 555 or 650 ti boost i'm using with 525 watt power supply with no problem, got mine in 2015 as the lease is up with the company's with a 22" Monitor and sound bar for 111.00 and 40 shipped. got the Vista business reinstall cd for 8.00 and used the code to confirm with no Problem. I played Battlefield 4 with the highest settings with no problems or lag..so Great for Gamers also, but you HAVE to replace the quadro graphics card that org came in these. using 12 gb Memory alot of power for the buck, and so quiet i wonder if its on, built like a tank or Ford tuff..is why I love Dell, check one out today, get one with No OS and have a fresh install ..and Have some FUN :)Read full review
The tower is quite big as with most OEM systems but that's not a huge deal. The 2.66 ghz w3520 is good processer on it's own and you are able to upgrade to something like a w3580 if you wish. It needs to be said that the CPU cooler is a proprietary cooler (As with all t3500's) and without modification the cpu temp hovers around 70 degrees celsius under load which is on the hot side but still within safe limits. I plan on adding a 90mm fan and attaching it to the cooler with stainless steel lockwire to hopefully bring it down. I replaced the hdd with a samsung ssd making my particular machine much faster than normal. There is a single 6 pin power connecter for graphics card and despite having two 2.0x16 pci-e slots it does not have sli capability. It is a very good machine that can be used for plenty however the cpu is really what makes this machine shine. It can be used for gaming with a decent graphics card installed (I can play fo4 just fine with an old radeon 7770hd graphics card)Read full review
