Optiplex GX780 Small Form Factor - 400GB HDD, 4GB Ram, DVD-Rom, 17in LCD Monitor, Windows XP Professional (Renewed)

**A Perfect Retro Gaming Setup** I recently added this PC to my showroom, and it has exceeded every expectation. Right out of the box, it arrived impeccably packaged, ready to power up without a hitch. Its pristine, nearly new appearance enhances the aesthetic of my retro gaming display, making it a fitting centerpiece for showcasing the best titles of the era. Performance-wise, this setup is absolutely ideal for classic gaming (with graphic card upgrade). Whether running older titles or handling showcase demonstrations, it delivers smooth, reliable performance that stays true to the intended experience. The out-of-the-box readiness ensures minimal hassle, allowing for an effortless plug-and-play setup. If you’re looking for a system that merges nostalgic appeal with seamless functionality, this PC is a perfect choice. It not only complements a retro gaming collection but also provides a reliable, authentic experience—exactly what enthusiasts appreciate.

PC worked wonders, had a BLAST revisiting the golden age of PC gaming and revisiting some childhood sound effects. Packed and shipped REALLY good and everything came as instructed! It was simple as plug and play!

Works for intended purpose

I opened the box and everything looked very nicely packed, so I was optimistic about the components working. Tore down my two-in-one to move it to my bedroom and proceeded to put my "new" XP computer together. Got everything done except hooking up the monitor. When I screwed the VGA to the computer outlet, both screws broke, but I still managed to get them both screwed in snugly. All done, and now it's time to power it all up. The tower comes on, does a few beeps and buzzes, and then seems to settle in. That's when things went wrong. I tried to push the power button on the monitor, but I didn't really feel it move at all. I would think you could feel it push in. But nada. It was just a stationary button. And the monitor just stayed dark. I managed to get the VGA detached and a spare one I had laying around attached instead. But still nothing on the monitor. This is the second refurbished Windows XP computer I've bought in the last few months, and it's the second one that I had issues with. I'm not gonna go through the hassle of trying to send it back. I'll just eat the cost like I did the one I bought on eBay. I'm through messing with this stuff. Very disappointed.

Everything looks great the only con is the mouse was crushed at some point during shipping and is unusable at least I hope that was the case. However my girl loves the setup.

I bought one of these for an elderly neighbor who didn't use a computer often but wanted a newer "cost effective" computer system that didn't cost an arm and a leg. The unit "lit up" and worked fine right out of the box. This is a great solution for anyone who wants a low cost PC for kids or someone who doesn't use a computer much. I was particularly impressed with the monitor that was very sturdy and worked quite well. Although at 17-odd inches, it's a bit small for most computer users it nonetheless provides a good viewing experience. Well worth the cost!

I actually received this a week earlier than expected. Packing was OK. There was no damage but the box was starting to come apart. I can’t tell if this computer is brand new or refurbished. There were no scratches, no blemishes, no signs of wear. I had an xp computer before but I don’t think it had as large of a hard drive nor as much RAM. Perhaps it is refurbished but I think it is possibly an upgrade. Having said that it seems to perform perfectly. I bought it only to run my old HP plotter. My current computers have 64 bit architecture and don’t recognize the driver package I have which is for 32 bit architecture. Interestingly enough the generic drivers for the plotter were already installed on this machine. So it meets my needs. I recommend the seller. Service was good and the product was as advertised. The only thing I noticed was it makes a slight rattling sound when set up as a tower but not when turned as a console. It has feet to allow for either position. Needless to say I’m running as a console. I’m happy.

This was just what I needed to continue running some of older programs. Not only a great value but it's in great condition as well... The speed is awesome and it boots really fast. I will make sure to check them out when I need computer related items.
