Amazing Optiplex 780

This little Optiplex is amazing. Granted it does not have the power of a full fledged gaming machine but I have several gaming machines already. When it arrived, the hard drive was disconnected so it was a simple thing to hook it up. To my surprise, this 780 just flies. The appearance is outstanding. It looks brand new, save a few scrapes on the cover. There is a lot of room inside the case so air flow should be good.

I am totally happy with my purchase and I plan on using this little gem for a long time to come.

Slow and erratic.

Just set this up last week for my sister. I had many problems, some not relater to the PC, some maybe were. I will have her call her "guru" this week and see if he can analyze it better. It is slow for ??? reason. Microsoft Edge will not load properly - the pages will blank and return two or three times, then give an error message. Google Chrome does not do this but is slow.Read full review...

Looks brand new!

The unit appears and functions as brand new in every way. Not even a speck of dust inside the unit. Could not be happier.

The unit was shipped with Microsoft Vista installed instead of Microsoft Windows 10. That does not matter. I will be using a different OS anyway.

I need an XP Computer to run an Old Program.

I need an XP computer so that I can load Microsoft VisualC++6.0 on the computer and it works. VisualC++6.0 will not work on Windows 7 or later operating system. Thus, I must run VisualC++6.0 on an XP computer. These older computers are slow and often have problems. However, they work for me and I'll deal with these issues.Read full review...

Good value for older systems that don't need a super modern computer

Solid win XP computer - boots quick with the SSD drive.
This was just the computer for my flight simulator training software, no frills.

Just what I needed to run my parallel port 3D Haptic Modeling FreeForm System!

Excellent eBayer!

Love the computer itโ€™s everything I needed. The computer is running smoothly and itโ€™s in great shape for its age. No BSOD, runs quiet and has ample ram for the work I do.

On 990 CPU i5-2400 runs XP ok. i5-2500 crashes on XP.

The i5-2400 CPU will run XP Pro just fine. No problem. However, the i5-2500 will NOT run XP. Gets blue screen and shut down. I learned this the hard way when trying to set up XP Pro for legacy software.(i5-2500 is great for widows 7.) The 990s are good machines. I'm running several.Read full review...

Not a technophile

I don't know what a small form factor is so I'm answering yes. So far it's serving it's purpose can't get the printer/scanner to work with it not a major problem don't have the internet right now so I can't correct it. I like it ๐Ÿ‘Read full review...

Found a box of old favorite games.

Perfect for intended use. Have a bunch of very good old games that will not run on any of the newer computers in our home, including Windows 7 which is the oldest software I still have. Cost of this computer, with benefits of Windows XP installed, solid state hard drive, 4GB of ram , etc. was less than the cost of Windows XP alone way back when. Works perfectly right out of the box.Read full review...
