Retro-Style Dell Optiplex 170L Entry-Level Gaming PC + Monitor and keyboard | NEW SSD Wi-Fi Bluetooth i5 8GB RAM 2GB GDDR5 GPU, shipped with cheapest shipping option for buyer’s convenience.
This is an excellent Retro-Style Entry-Level gaming PC that features an older Dell case from 2004, along with a 19” Dell monitor, and an older Dell keyboard.
Just supply your own mouse and audio output device and you’re ready to go!
This PC can support ultra high-end upgrades if needed!
But for now, for aesthetic purposes, everything externally is extremely stock, and even the same old rear case fan and the original 250 watt power supply were used in order to keep the aesthetic of the PC appearing very dated and used-up.
They have been externally cleaned.
The rest of inside and outside of the PC has also been thoroughly cleaned of any dust or debris, and the entire PC was rebuilt and replaced.
If you would like the fans cleaned off before shipping, just ask, but it does not affect performance, and definitely helps keep the PC looking the part.
This is an excellent starting PC for getting into gaming. It can play Forza Horizon 4, Forza Horizon 5, Rocket League, Fortnite, Minecraft, Rainbow Six Siege, CSGO, Valorant, Roblox, Fallout 3, Fallout 4, Cyberpunk 2077, and MANY more recent titles as well!
A great starting PC nonetheless.
Fast!
Wi-Fi!
Bluetooth!
Retro-styled!
Easy to upgrade!
Great performance.
Story:
The entire original internal motherboard has been removed and updated to a more viable board that features a capable i5 CPU, along with 8GB of DDR3 RAM, a BRAND NEW 120GB solid state drive, a 200GB hard drive, and a quality dedicated video card to run games.
The PC has been entirely cleaned and wiped down and is ready to be loved in a new home.
PC runs very fast.
Here the PC provides some surprisingly smooth performance.
CONFIRMED TO RUN on the Dell monitor given:

if you have any other games you would like to see the performance of on this PC, please just ask.
PC comes Pre-installed with all the games listed above except Rainbow Six Siege, that game requires purchase. The rest are 100% free.
Final Notes:
When the motherboard was replaced, the front USB’s and the front headphone jack have stopped working.
We could possibly see if we could rig something together for the internal USB header to make the front USB’s work if a serious buyer wants it done.
But until then.. You MUST use the ports in the back of the PC for anything you need to plug in.
Only the disc drive and power button are functional from the front of the case.
The floppy drive is of course not plugged in either but with the correct adapters, remains functional, and would still work with the correct hardware.
As this is a used case, it must be noted that minor scratches, abrasions, areas of discoloration, and small amounts of dust, will be found on this PC.
These cosmetic errors do not affect performance.
Please carefully inspect all photo’s of the PC if these may concern you.
The monitor also features some minimal to moderate scratching that is visible during some gameplay.
But has been tested and does not affect gameplay at all.
While gaming, it goes unnoticed. And they are especially not noticeable on darker colors.
If you would like an identical monitor with no scratches, or no monitor at all, please ask.
This PC has been tested for performance and stability with Userbenchmark and Heaven 3D benchmark and PC proves itself to be an excellent 1080p gaming machine for mostly MEDIUM to HIGH settings on most older games. (Shown)
Most components of this PC prove themselves to be functioning AT or ABOVE expectations (with exception of motherboard limiting SSD data rate and CPU score limited by benchmark) meaning that the PC is configured in such a way that does not create any real lack of potential with the current components. (Shown)
PC functions as it should.
If more gaming performance is desired, a couple overclocking presets able to be selected from the right side of the MSI afterburner interface have been created for the benefit of the user.
Select either preset 1 or 2 for increased graphics performance.
Issues/Concerns:
Once again, the PC does not come with a mouse or speakers so you will need to supply your own mouse and headset or external speakers for a complete setup.
The only issues with this PC are that of the non-functional front USB’s + headphone jack, and the slight cosmetic errors which are basically unnoticeable from more than 2ft away or while in a dim-light environment.
These issues do not affect performance, and the PC functions as it should with lack of front USB’s and front headphone port.
If you do not need Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, or a monitor, the price for the listing can be decreased. Just ask.
