Dell has three new desktops coming out. The OptiPlex 7090 line will feature a standard tower, a small form factor edition, and a micro variant since Dell knows that size matters when it comes to computer hardware.
The 7090 Tower will allow for powerful components up to and including the NVIDIA RTX 3070 (8 GB, GDDR6) GPU, 4TB of storage, and a wide array of Intel CPUs. The Small Form Factor 7090 will have similar hardware and be competitive in most component areas, though it will offer fewer GPU and CPU options, among other limitations. Meanwhile, the 7090 Micro will sport drastically fewer customization options and weaker overall hardware, as is to be expected with a micro variant.
One item Dell points out about the 7090 Tower and Small Form Factor models is that they’ll be “the world’s first PCs available with closed-loop recycled aluminum in the hard drive,” a claim based on its own internal analysis. The company has many sustainability goals on the table right now, and this is one step toward achieving them.
Here are the three 7090 PCs’ specs:
As stated by Dell, the starting prices for each model are:
- 7090 Micro Tower: $526.91
- 7090 Small Form Factor: $517.47
- 7090 Micro Form Factor: $480.28
Dell’s May slate is pretty large, so keep checking Windows Central for other announcements pertaining to the company’s desktop efforts. Beyond just the OptiPlex 7090 line, there are plenty of other business-class desktops offering the latest in hardware and power.
