IMPORTANT SOFTWARE NOTE FOR eBAY AND INTERESTED BUYERS: The Windows 11 Operating System and Office 2021 Suite included with this laptop have legitimately purchased, commercial/retail licenses that are fully transferable to the new owner of this laptop. Any additional included software beyond Windows and Office is either built into the Windows 11 Operating System itself (Microsoft provides myriad wonderful titles out of the goodness of their hearts), or has been installed via the included physical media (CDs and/or DVDs).

Item Description (This is other-worldly wordy & detailed, but full of very useful info!)

Up for sale is a top-of-the-line, absolutely gorgeous, fully loaded, brand new condition, one-of-a-kind Dell Inspiron 17-5793 Special Edition Power-User/Professional/Multimedia laptop. For those familiar with Dell's legendary, best-selling Inspiron 17-5770 line from a few years ago, the 5793 is its ultimate successor, identical to it with the exception of a much faster and more modern CPU architecture (10th-generation vs 7th- or 8th-generation in the 5770), vastly higher performance GPU (dual nVidia GeForce and Intel Iris GPUs many times faster than the UHD Graphics 610 or 620 generally featured in the 5770), and significantly faster memory/RAM support (2666MHz vs 2133MHz or 2400MHz in the 5770). This 5793 is effectively the 5000-series "up market" version of the super-popular, volume mainstream, 3000-series Inspiron 17-3793, but with hugely upgraded hardware specifications, massively better LCD display technology, enhanced chassis build quality and materials, and improved aesthetic design! Add it all up, and this "unicorn" system is easily among the very finest 5000-series or 3000-series Inspiron 17" laptops you will find for sale on eBay or anywhere else! Absolutely zero compromises were made with it - just about every conceivable hardware and software/OS upgrade has been included with this super unique laptop! So, unlike most laptops offered for sale on eBay/Amazon/Best Buy/etc., this is not some off-the-shelf, stripped-down, "vanilla" configuration that would require an immediate additional investment in time and money to meet your performance expectations - it is exceptionally well configured out-of-the-box, easily ranking among the very highest-performing 17"-class laptops out there, and designed to satisfy absolutely all of your computing needs now and for many, many years to come without requiring any hardware or software/OS upgrades whatsoever! For the interested reader, a detailed history of the Inspiron 17-5793 Special Edition is provided in the section WAY below titled "Origin of the Inspiron 17-5793 Special Edition".

Straight from Dell, a very basic, no-frills, entry level-equipped, earlier-generation Inspiron 5770 or the more recent Inspiron 3793 (Pentium or Core i3 CPU, 8GB single-channel RAM, standard spinning 1TB HDD, no M.2 NVMe/PCIe SSD, basic integrated UHD graphics, low-resolution/low-contrast/washed-out-looking non-IPS TFT LCD, no 'AX' 2.4Gpbs WiFi-6, feeble 45W power supply, no Office package, boring chassis design, etc.) would have set you back roughly seven hundred and fifty dollars before taxes and shipping. But with the stratospheric hardware and OS upgrades included in this package, the total cost - had Dell actually marketed this system - would have more than doubled that to approach two thousand dollars, and twenty-five hundred when Microsoft Office 2021 Professional Plus and the other apps suites are also added! With its ultra-high-end component selection built atop a powerful, modern Quad-core Hyper-threaded "Ice Lake" 10th-generation CPU/motherboard foundation, this amazing laptop is without question among the most capable 17"-class systems available anywhere at this super-attractive price, and absolutely flogs all of those meek little 'netbooks', Chromebooks, and other cost-optimized (read: compromised) systems out there. In fact, once POST (Power-On Self Test) completes, this extremely well-equipped system will boot to the Windows logon screen in around 10-12 seconds flat (only 2-3 seconds if Fast Boot with the hiber file is enabled!), and launch large, complex apps in only a second or two! So, for anyone needing an ultra-high-performance, go-anywhere, multimedia professional-grade notebook that's also certified as a fully capable desktop replacement (especially when used with your external high-resolution monitor, perhaps in combination with a Dell D3000/D3100/D6000, WD15/WD19, or similar 3rd-party USB 3.0 or USB-C docking station), then look no further - this Dell is without question one of the very best available at this extremely attractive price point. That is especially the case if you're in need of a home learning or remote working solution - you'd be hard pressed to find a more suitable laptop than this big-screen Dell for those tasks, both in terms of hardware specs and Windows OS, apps, and tools setup!

Things you can do with your Inspiron 17-5793 Special Edition laptop: Given its hugely upgraded, top-shelf hardware specs, this Inspiron 17-5793 Special Edition easily handles essentially anything one might buy the highest-end laptops for today, but for far less money! Bottom line: if you're looking for an absolutely flawless, brand new condition,  aesthetically stunning, fully configured, rock-solid, extremely well-constructed notebook with the hardware capability to easily handle all of your computing needs for everything from running mission critical business productivity applications and data analysis tools, running complex synthesis and simulation packages, doing innovative graphics design, and even enjoying some slightly older gaming titles, down to the simpler everyday tasks like remote working and distance learning, web surfing, emailing and instant messaging, video conferencing, listening to your favorite music through the outstanding stereo speakers, streaming your favorite movies and videos, watching DVDs, and storing stacks of photos, video, and music, then this amazing Dell system will deliver. It was built with only the highest quality parts and materials, has been upgraded with the latest, top-shelf components, and has been set up from scratch with a fresh, new Windows 11 Professional Edition 64-bit OS installation (the latest "October 2023 Update Edition" Version 23H2, the most recent version available, updated, activated, and perpetually licensed via transferable, just-purchased genuine Microsoft Windows 11 retail license) and an Office 2021 Professional Plus Edition installation (also the most recent version available - updated, activated, and perpetually licensed via transferable, just-purchased genuine Microsoft Office 2021 retail license), fully customized with a wonderful, intuitive, personalized Start Menu, and ready to go right out of the box. It would make an excellent do-anything laptop for middle-school/high-school/college/graduate-school students or business/professional users, and it's also perfect for work-at-home types who could use it as an ideal desktop replacement with its vibrant, easy-to-read, Full-HD In-Plane Switching (IPS) LED-backlit LCD display, ultra-high-resolution external monitor support, and myriad connectivity options. It's far more ruggedly built than most other new laptops available today, and it's priced at a very substantial discount to its original retail value (and easily worth every penny!). And again, this laptop honestly looks absolutely stunning and is shockingly powerful - basically a "maximum envy" system which will hugely impress your co-workers, fellow students, neighbors, your kids, your parents, your spouse, your pets, or anyone/anything else that appreciates the very latest and greatest in information technology wrapped in the most aesthetically beautiful package available!

Windows 11 Professional: This laptop was built with Windows 11 Professional Edition 64-bit, so there's no antique, unsupported Windows 7, or silly, woefully begat, impossible-to-use Windows 8 here; Windows 11 (with it's 'Start' Menu FINALLY improved and upgraded with Windows 10-style Hierarchical Program Groups as of the current 23H2 Release) is Microsoft's very latest business and consumer operating system, and is preferred by millions of users for all of it's new features and enhancements (I still do miss the Windows 10 Live Tiles and resizable Start Menu icons though - hopefully those are also coming soon!). For Windows 11 23H2,  Microsoft has added their fantastic new "Copilot in Windows" centralized AI assistance feature, more Start Menu improvements (especially Hover Preview), Taskbar/System Tray/Notifications enhancements (in particular, vastly improved audio controls), modernized File Explorer with native support for nearly every current archive file format, improved Windows Share features, the new Windows Backup and Restore app, new Emojis, and huge enhancements to Windows Spotlight, Narrator, Voice Access, Account Security, and Graphics Management. All in all, an amazing collection of brand new and enhanced existing features to provide the best possible Windows experience for both new and current users!

For those who love to run Android apps on their smartphones or tablets, Windows 11 23H2 Professional now includes Microsoft's brilliant new Windows Subsystem for Android, which allows you to easily install and run all of your favorite Android apps from the Amazon Appstore! And for anyone concerned in general about Windows 11 performance, please note that this Windows 11 Professional installation was NOT performed on some cheapo, creaky, low-end/high-volume 'consumer' notebook! This Inspiron 15-5793 is Dell's upper-end 5000-series Inspiron model - with the same full complement of high-performance hardware as found in the far pricier 7000-series and XPS systems - and will blaze through any of your most demanding apps with ease! Finally, note that in addition to performance hardware that's easily up to 7000-series and XPS levels, this 5793's internals are housed within a super-sturdy and upgraded "Platinum Silver" metal-and-composite chassis rather than the admittedly quite pretty (but almost comically easily dented and scratched) all-metallic chasses of those XPS and most 7000-series units. You'll find absolutely none of that shiny, garbage chassis plastic like you'll find in many 'volume consumer' laptops from retail stores and online, as this system provides the perfect blend of performance, beauty and toughness - exactly what you need for a big-screen laptop you can both take with you anywhere to do anything, or just use at home as a desktop replacement!

Hardware specs of typical Inspiron 17-5770 & 17-3793 systems listed on eBay: When compared with the closest relatives of the 5793 (the earlier Inspiron 17-5770 and the more recent Inspiron 17-3793), know that in addition to what is almost certainly the very finest Windows and apps setup provided by anyone on eBay, this 5793 is also better equipped in terms of actual hardware than any comparable big-screen Inspiron laptop out there. Similar systems listed on eBay generally have much slower CPUs (often sluggish, cost-reduced Pentium or Core i3 processors), less capable 3D graphics (typically the Intel UHD Graphics 610 or 620 GPU), far less total memory (usually only 4GB-8GB of single-channel RAM), standard SLOW spinning Hard Disk Drives for the OS and apps (typically 500GB or 1TB units), scratched up, lower-resolution non-IPS LCD displays (usually 1600x900 pixel standard HD+ TFT screens with abysmal contrast and narrow viewing angles), pokey prior-generation WiFi modules, worn out low-capacity AC adapters with frayed cords or flaky generics, badly depleted batteries, battered and abused chassis, etc. This ultra-loaded 5793 Special Edition, on the other hand, is in brand new condition (please review condition details below), with all top-shelf/upgraded specs, a vastly-better-than-typical custom Windows and apps setup, and looks fresh-from-the-factory awesome! The competition may be a bit cheaper, but if you want an ultra-high-end professional multimedia/power-user laptop that you can really use straight out-of-the-box (that isn't a money-trap "fixer-upper"), that is "unicorn"-level unique, and that you can actually be proud to own, then this is absolutely the one to buy!

Features, upgrades and benefits of this Inspiron 17-5793 Special Edition system: As mentioned, the original Dell Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) of Inspiron 17-3793 or prior-generation Inspiron 17-5770 laptops with merely basic configurations was around $750ish. Nearly all aspects of those setups have been upgraded for this particular laptop, while only a few remain unchanged (since there are no upgrades available for them!). To wit:

• Intel 10th-Generation Core i7 Quad-core/Octal-thread "Ice Lake" processor. A monster upgrade from the 3793 basic configuration's 10th-gen Core i3 or any of the 5770's earlier 7th- or 8th-gen CPUs, running circles around those processors to provide much greater performance for modern, power-hungry applications and much more responsive, smoother, and seamless multitasking!

• Ultra-high-performance nVidia GeForce MX230 3D graphics accelerator with 2GB dedicated GDDR5 Graphics Memory and 18GB total Graphics Memory. Another absolutely massive upgrade versus the entry-level integrated Intel UHD Graphics GPUs available in the basic configurations from Dell. This system's nVidia MX230 GPU provides significantly improved 3D frame rates for well over twice the performance when photo/video editing, gaming, generating content, 3D rendering, etc., with dynamic switching what that graphics horsepower isn't required to a super-energy-efficient, high-performance Intel IRIS Plus secondary GPU for handling typical 2D graphics chores (Microsoft Office, web browsing, audio & video streaming, etc.).

• Huge, lightning-fast 2TB Western Digital Black 3.4GB/sec PCIe Gen3x4 NVMe Solid State Drive/SSD. Rated at up to 25 times higher peak read/write speeds than the standard, spinning SATA Primary Hard Disk Drives included in the basic configurations from Dell. Provides vastly greater Windows and applications performance versus what's possible with any traditional HDD - a difference very easy to notice and appreciate.

• Massive 2TB Seagate SATA-3 Secondary Hard Disk Drive/HDD. The basic configurations from Dell have absolutely no secondary/backup drive of any sort. This 2TB drive provides ultra-high capacity internal storage for photos, videos, music, SSD backups, etc.

• 32GB of genuine Dell-Certified SK Hynix dual-channel, high-performance DDR4 main memory/RAM. An incredible FOUR times larger and two times faster than the 8GB of single-channel RAM typically included with the basic or even mid-range configurations from Dell. Provides effortless support for multi-tasking and running especially large applications.

• 1920x1080 pixel resolution Full-HD/FHD In-Plane Switching/IPS UltraSharp LCD display with anti-glare matte finish. Provides outstanding, world-class dynamic contrast ratios, super-wide 160-degree viewing angles, and the richest RGB color gamut available for a super-immersive and pleasing viewing experience - by all measures, on an entirely different level than the non-IPS TFT displays provided with the basic configurations from Dell (which, to be honest, are functionally OK if you don't mind extremely narrow viewing angles, reduced contrast ratios, and limited RGB color gamut resulting in "washed-out" looking, uninspiring graphics).

• Ultra-high-speed 2400Mbps/2.4Gbps WiFi-6 Wireless-AX module. Provides nearly six times the peak wireless bandwidth of the 433Mbps Wireless-AC modules included with the basic configuration from Dell for much faster network and internet connections.

• Programmable LED backlit keyboard with dedicated numeric keypad. The basic configuration from Dell (in fact, nearly all configurations) includes only the non-backlit keyboard option. This wonderful "see in the dark" LED backlit keyboard is much easier to use in darker environments. Backlight brightness is user-configurable: Bright-Dim-Off, and will automatically turn off after a user-configurable time interval if the laptop is not being actively used (battery saver!).

• Integrated Goodix Fingerprint Sensor. Log into Windows simply by placing your finger on the sensor - no more pins or passwords needed! The basic configuration from Dell (and even most mid-range configurations) does not include this useful security feature.

• 90-Watt AC power adapter. Provides two times the reserve capacity for no-sweat operation under heavier computation loads. The basic and mid-range configurations from Dell include the chintzy, lower-power 45-Watt adapters.

• Future-proof and business-ready genuine Windows 11 Professional Edition (fully licensed and activated!). The basic and mid-range configurations from Dell include only the defeatured "Home" Edition of Windows.

• Genuine Microsoft Office 2021 Professional Plus (fully licensed and activated!). The basic and mid-range configurations from Dell (in fact, the typical configuration for ALL laptops from ALL manufacturers) include NO licensed Office package - merely a 30-day trial for Office 365, after which you have to pay a monthly or annual subscription fee to continue using it. There are absolutely ZERO monthly or annual subscription fees/payments required for the Microsoft Office 2021 Professional Plus suite installed on this system - it can be used perpetually via the included genuine Microsoft license!

• As an added bonus, this unique Dell "Special Edition" laptop features an eye-catching and elegant Onyx Black and Platinum Silver metal-and-composite chassis to really make it stand out! It honestly looks absolutely gorgeous, and none of the listing photos really do it any justice.

Cost Savings/Price Reduction Options for this Inspiron 17-5793 system: The hardware configuration for this laptop was optimized in terms of the amount of RAM, SSD and HDD capacity, upgraded LCD, upgraded CPU and GPU, upgraded WiFi, upgraded power adapter, etc., in order to provide the very best out-of-box experience and longest period before any later upgrades might be necessary. However, if some of these hardware specs are beyond your needs and you would like to reprice the laptop with those specs reduced, then just contact me via eBay messaging and I can give you a quote with your preferred hardware configuration.

Actual laptop and accessories for sale shown above. Please check the eBay-hosted photos at the very top of this listing for higher-resolution enlargements. For additional photos (I have dozens!), please contact me via eBay messaging.

NOTE: Any bright areas on the laptop in the included photos (esp the ones on the palmrest and keyboard areas) are strictly from my hyper-active camera flash and lack of any actual photography skills! The laptop itself is brand new and has no blemishes, wear, or imperfections of any sort whatsoever!

So literally, all you will need to do is push the power button, configure your email account, and perhaps set your own personalized user password to start using your laptop the moment it arrives! The laptop comes with a personalized primary user account and as many additional accounts as you desire pre-installed and custom configured as you like, including a very wide selection of fantastic background images and desktop themes provided by Microsoft specifically for Windows 11 systems. And just in case you ever need to reinstall the original "day one" setup, you'll be provided - on the secondary hard disk drive - a full snapshot of your system, which will contain an exact backup image of your laptop once it's been set up specifically for you after your purchase. Not even the big-box manufacturers do that!

Manufacturer/Model	Dell Inspiron 17 "5793" Special Edition A PRIMER ABOUT DELL'S 7000-/5000-/3000-SERIES INSPIRON LINEUP: At the top of the Inspiron tree is the enthusiast-targeted 7000-series, followed very closely by the high-end/upper-mainstream 5000-series, followed a bit farther back by the volume-oriented/lower-mainstream 3000-series. To optimize cost-vs-aesthetics, Dell typically utilizes a substantial percentage of metal in a 7000-series external chassis, somewhat less metal and more high-end composites in a 5000-series external chassis, and standard composites and plastics in a 3000-series external chassis. To manage cost-vs-performance, Dell generally selects a basket of higher-end internal components (Quad-Core/Hyper-Threaded CPUs, 3D-optimized GPUs, larger & faster RAM, larger & faster NVMe primary SSDs, huge SATA secondary/backup HDDs, higher-quality LCDs, higher-bandwidth WiFi adapters, higher-capacity AC adapters, etc.) for the 7000- and 5000-series laptops versus somewhat lower-spec, less pricey internal components for the 3000-series laptops (where achieving the lowest possible cost is a paramount goal).
Processor and Chipset	Intel Core i7-1065G7 1.30GHz (3.90GHz Max) Quad-Core/Octal-Thread 10th Generation CPU with 10nm Lithography, 15W TDP, 8MB L3 SmartCache, 4GT/s OPI Bus Speed, 58.3GB/s Memory Bandwidth, 12 lanes of PCI Express Gen-3.0, Intel Gaussian & Neural Accelerator 1.0, Intel Deep Learning Boost (Intel DL Boost), Intel Adaptix Technology, Intel Optane Memory Support, Intel Speed Shift Technology, Intel Turbo Boost Technology Ver 2.0, Intel Hyper-Threading Technology, Intel Virtualization Technology (VT-x), Intel Virtualization Technology for Directed I/O (VT-d), Intel VT-x with Extended Page Tables (EPT), Intel 64-bit Instruction Set Architecture, Intel SSE4.1/SSE4.2/AVX2/AVX-512 Instruction Set Extensions, Idle States, Thermal Monitoring Technologies, Intel AES New Instructions, Secure Key, Intel Software Guard Extensions (Intel SGX), Intel OS Guard, Execute Disable Bit, Intel Boot Guard, and More!

Solid State Drive & Hard Disk Drive	New 2TB/2024GB Western Digital Black-Series SN720 (SDAQNTX-2T00) PCIe Gen3x4 NVMe M.2 Solid State Drive SSD, with up to 3400MB/3.4GB per Second Peak Read Performance (Perfect Health Indicator Status!). New 2TB/2000GB Seagate Momentus ST2000LM007 SATA-3 Hard Disk Drive HDD (Perfect Health Indicator Status!). [9.0 Windows 11 Experience Index Subscore] NOTE: The outrageous 9.0 score achieved by this ultra-fast PCIe Gen3x4 NVMe M.2 SSD completely obliterates the typical 5.8-6.0 scores achieved by traditional SATA Hard Disk Drives/HDDs, and even demolishes the very respectable 7.8-8.0 scores typically achieved by SATA Solid State Drives/SSDs, resulting in an astonishing (and very noticeable) overall performance increase!!
Display	17.3" Full HD/FHD UltraSharp 1920x1080 Pixel Resolution In-Plane Switching/IPS 160-Degree WVA WLED LCD with Anti-Glare Matte Finish, Super-Bright 300 Nits Luminance, 500:1 Minimum Contrast Ratio, and 72% NTSC Color Gamut (Capable of Viewing all High-Definition/HD Content!). NOTE: In-Plane Switching/IPS LED-backlit LCD screens provide FAR richer color reproduction (fuller RGB color gamut), vastly superior dynamic contrast ratios, and much wider, more accurate viewing angles than traditional TFT (Thin-Film Transistor) LCD displays! You will easily notice the difference!

Item Condition

Functionally, this Dell Inspiron 17-5793 Special Edition is in flawless condition. Cosmetically, even though it is not being delivered to you directly from the factory, it's absolutely indistinguishable from factory new, and is almost certainly the very finest such unit currently available on eBay or likely anywhere else. Some details...

Overall, the chassis/case is in brand new condition - exactly as a typical system would look like immediately after unpacking it for the very first time! In detail: the LCD's top/back cover is in brand new condition, with no scratches/scuffs/dings/dents/cracks/etc., and the protective plastic cover still attached - 10 out of 10. The LCD's front bezel/frame is perfect - 10 out of 10. The chassis base/bottom is perfect, with zero blemishes of any sort - it rates a 10 out of 10. The keyboard is perfect, with zero indications of any use whatsoever (not even from the week I spent installing and configuring Windows 11, the Microsoft Office 2021 Pro suite, Adobe, and all of the 200+ apps and tools!) - 10 out of 10. The palmrest/touchpad assembly is flawless, and rates a 10 out of 10. The LCD is bright and clear and in perfect, brand new condition; there are no dead pixels or scratches or scuffs or lines or burn marks or faded backlighting or discoloration or any other possible imperfection - overall an amazing display and rates a 10 out of 10. The genuine Dell high-capacity 3-cell 42WHr Li-Ion "Smart" battery is brand new and retains all 100% of its date-of-manufacture capacity (41,998 mWh out of 41,998 mWh!) for hours and hours of uninterrupted on-the-go computing! The Dell LA90PM130 90-Watt high-capacity AC adapter is mint. The cooling fan and heat sink assembly are clean and perfect - completely free of the dingy muck buildup you find on used laptops (which can lead to overheating!). The Solid State Drive and the Hard Disk Drive are in new condition, with both receiving the highest possible "Health Status" scores as determined by the industry standard CrystalDiskInfo tool. The optical drive is new (only used to install some of the applications via the included DVDs), with all supported media types fully tested and certified. And the integrated Intel AX201 Wireless-AC plus Bluetooth 5.1 card works superbly, with plenty of speed (up to 2400Mbits/s) and range to satisfy anyone! All internal components (motherboard, CPU, GPU, LCD, memory cards, etc.) have been fully tested, and the entire laptop has been checked out thoroughly using a battery of highly regarded diagnostics and stress-testing suites. This is truly a phenomenal laptop, and you are extremely unlikely to find another one with its superb combination of high-end hardware specs, outstanding, custom-tailored Windows and apps setup, and brand new overall condition at anything close to this very attractive price - it is quite unique indeed!

Unit History: This Dell Inspiron 17-5793 Special Edition is listed as a "New" / "Open Box" unit, and aside from the week or so required to upgrade it and get it set up with Windows 11 Pro, Office 2021 Pro, and the entire best-in-class custom apps suite, it has never actually been used. Our company typically has a dozen or more Inspiron 17s (mostly 5770s and 3793s) in our stable that we use to run standard business productivity tools (Word, Excel, and PowerPoint typically, plus a few Adobe creativity apps), some engineering tools (mostly MatLab and several chip design, synthesis, and simulation packages), as well as doing some Zoom/Skype video conferencing. This particular unit was a spare system that sat unused in IT storage. Company-wide, all of our Inspiron systems are now being reassigned or decommissioned due to an across-the-board upgrade cycle to mostly very pricey Dell Precision models, making available for sale this still-as-new Inspiron 5793 system with its fresh-from-scratch operating system and apps installation, plus its performance-oriented component upgrades (most importantly, the 10th-generation Core i7 CPU, the nVidia MX230 and Intel Iris-Plus dual GPUs, the huge, lightning-fast M.2 primary Solid State Drive, the  equally huge SATA secondary Hard Disk Drive, the much larger RAM/main memory, the FHD IPS LCD, the radically faster "AX" WiFi-6 module, the backlit keyboard, the fingerprint sensor, and the much higher-capacity AC adapter). In sum, this ultra-upgraded Inspiron 17-5793 is configured vastly better than when originally purchased (along with over a dozen similar 3793 and 5770 systems), yet is priced at a fraction of its retail value!

Origin of the Inspiron 17-5793 Special Edition

Why no Inspiron 17-5793 from Dell? Where did this 5793 come from? This one-of-a-kind laptop is essentially what would have been the Dell Inspiron 5793 - a 5000-series based, "step up"/"up market" version of the Inspiron 3793 - which was never an officially released product, but would have exactly matched this specific system if it had been. In the nearly decade-long, continuously updated and modernized Inspiron 17-57xx-line, Dell unfortunately hit the "Pause" button on the hugely popular series following the 7th- and 8th-generation processor-based 5770, and never released a follow-on using 9th-generation or the vastly improved 10th-generation CPU architectures. Perhaps this was due to the COVID-related lockdowns and scaled-back investments that prevailed during the past couple of years. Who knows? Dell actually did release updated models in the smaller 5000-series Inspiron 15 lineup (for example, the 5593, a successor to the 5570), but oddly not with the big screen 5000-series Inspiron 17s. Dell also released the volume-mainstream 3000-series follow-on models - the Inspiron 17-3793 and the smaller Inspiron 15-3593 and Inspiron 14-3493 - based on much newer 10th-generation processor motherboards; however, those systems were unfortunately handicapped by absolutely abysmal LCD screens, extremely mediocre hardware specifications (GPU, RAM, SSD, HDD, WiFi, etc.), and flimsy, uninspiring, cheap-looking all-plastic chasses in order to keep their prices low. Nowhere could you find an Inspiron 17-5793...until now!

Fortunately, various R&D budgetary constraints force Dell (and other manufacturers) to often use the exact same motherboard/system board across similar "platform architectures" (eg., 7000-series, 5000-series, and 3000-series for Dell) and also across multiple chassis sizes (eg., 17.3" and 15.6" and 14.0"), but with slightly different BOMs ("Bill Of Materials" - the register of actual electronic devices selected to be soldered on the motherboard) depending on specific performance and cost targets. As an apropos example, the 7th- and 8th-generation-based Inspiron 17-5770 and Inspiron 15-5570, and 10th-generation-based Inspiron 15-5593, Inspiron 14-5493, Inspiron 17-3793, Inspiron 15-3593, and Inspiron 14-3493 all conveniently utilize the exact same motherboard family - only the CPU, GPU, and a few other configurable components differ, while the form-factor, connectivity, and overall board layout remain absolutely identical, allowing them to be interchanged one-for-one! That makes it very likely that Dell fully intended to release an Inspiron 17-5793, but just never got around to it!

All of this brings us to the hybrid 5770 + 3x93 = "5793" system listed here, constructed from brand new, ultra-high-end, Inspiron 5770 external chassis and matching palmrest/keyboard/touchpad assembly - with all of its performance-oriented components - mated to a super-high-end 10th-generation Intel-based 3x93 motherboard. The result is a laptop with the gorgeous looks, solid build quality, ample screen size, and top-shelf component selection of the 5770, built around a dramatically faster and massively upgraded 10th-generation CPU-based 3x93 motherboard - the absolute best of both worlds, and as mentioned previously, a "one-of-a-kind" master piece!

Upgrade Options

The hardware included with this Inspiron 17-5793 Special Edition laptop is what I would consider optimal from a cost-performance perspective (I spent nearly 10 years at Intel architecting and designing microprocessors and entire computing platforms, so I have a better understanding of performance tradeoffs than the average eBay vendor!). I have not over-spec'ed it to make it appear to be something that it's not. It has more than enough compute and graphics horsepower, however, to comfortably run any slightly less demanding video games at up to medium-ish settings, any of your productivity and creativity applications, any of your entertainment apps (especially streaming players and various multimedia apps), and a variety of AI, simulation, synthesis, machine learning, etc. "next generation" programs and tools you might choose to install after your purchase - so it is fully capable of handling nearly any task you might throw at it! For potential buyers who'd prefer to max out certain specs on this already superbly equipped laptop, I'd be happy to provide any available upgrades to the winning buyer. Prices for items like larger NVMe primary Solid State Drives (up to 4TB), larger secondary SATA Solid State Drives (up to 4TB), Bluetooth keyboards and mice, spare AC adapters, etc., fluctuate depending on market conditions; however, if you're interested, just send me an email and I can check on current prices for you.

Making a Best Offer

While I generally don't provide automatic "Best Offer" capability in my laptop listings because of the flood of low-ball offers that normally leads to, I will try to respond if you email with an offer and will at least consider it. As policy, I try to price all of my new, open box, or refurbished-to-near-new condition laptops at approximately what the primary components are worth on eBay (motherboard, CPU, LCD, memory, SSD and/or HDD, optical drive, AC adapter, battery, chassis, etc.). Depending on current market conditions, I generally add a bit on top of that (typically around $75) to cover the 12+ hours of labor on average that goes into each laptop to get it configured like you see in the listing: time that's spent on the hardware and firmware upgrades, the Windows, device drivers, and applications installations and updates, and the exceptional, super-intuitive, uber-organized Start Menu configuration. Paying myself roughly $6 per hour for that expert labor does not to me seem excessive! However, I do understand everyone has an affordability limit - especially these days! - so if the upfront price is out of your range, you are welcome to contact me and I can try to work with you to get the laptop down to a price you can afford by trading off certain specs against price/performance and optimize both with your specific needs in mind.

Shipping and Insurance Info

DOMESTIC U.S. SHIPMENTS:

Insurance to cover the replacement cost of an item lost or damaged during transit is not an optional, separately billable line item during checkout. Therefore, all items of sufficient value automatically carry full insurance coverage for US destinations. This coverage is provided via USPS/FedEx/UPS or ShipCover/other third-party, and is already built into the shipping quote - there is no separate fee charged.

INTERNATIONAL SHIPMENTS:

• First Class International is notoriously slow for certain countries, sometimes taking as long as 8 to 10 weeks for final delivery of your package. Please keep that in mind if you select First Class International for shipment of your item.

• For higher-value items (especially those shipped to countries with spotty international package delivery reputations), you may select to have the "Registered Mail" option added to your shipment if you have  chosen First Class International Mail delivery. Registered Mail provides full insurance coverage for an item - even for First Class International Mail - but adds approximately $12.00 - $13.00 to the cost of standard postage. Please also keep in mind that USPS Registered Mail requires special handling and tracking by the postal and customs services of both the US and your own country, so delivery often takes a few extra days compared to non-registered mail. If you are interested in the Registered Mail option, please send a note along with your payment and you will be issued a separate PayPal invoice to cover the cost of this service.

• For higher-value items, you also have the option of selecting Priority Mail International delivery. Priority Mail International provides full tracking and delivery confirmation information when the non-Flat Rate Box option is selected (Flat Rate Boxes are generally as poor with regard to tracking and delivery confirmation as First Class International). Priority Mail International provides full insurance coverage, so is recommended if you are at all concerned about loss or theft of your item by your country's customs and/or postal services while they are handling your package.

• International shipping charges do not include any taxes, duties, VAT, or customs surcharges that may be collected upon delivery. If you have any questions about this, PLEASE contact your local postal and/or customs authorities before purchasing to learn what additional fees may be charged.

ALL SHIPMENTS:

• Shipping services are generally provided by the US Postal Service for domestic US and most international addresses. In some cases (typically heavy items shipped to US addresses), FedEx or UPS service may be provided. If your location is not listed automatically with an exact shipping price, or you would like to inquire about additional shipping options, please contact me via eBay messaging and I will provide a custom shipping quote for you. Don't forget to mention the exact item and delivery location you are inquiring about!

• Your package will be shipped within 1 business day of receiving a cleared payment. Depending on time of day that a payment is received/cleared, your package may ship the same day. If there is any shipping delay in order to fully process a payment (see 'Payment Details' below for more information), you will be contacted via email and informed of the expected delay.

• All domestic and international shipments include a delivery confirmation number, tracking number, registered mail number, and/or customs number, depending on the method of shipment selected and shipping vendor (please see important limitation above regarding tracking and delivery confirmation for First Class International packages). These numbers can be used to obtain shipping status via their respective online sites (www.usps.com, www.ups.com, or www.fedex.com). Generally, these shipping numbers are provided automatically for all domestic and international shipments. If they are not provided automatically, I will send an email to your registered eBay email address with the appropriate information. Please keep in mind that for First Class International and Priority Mail International Flat Rate delivery methods, the tracking updates essentially stop once the USPS has processed your package and it has left the United States.

• I'm very happy to combine shipping on multiple items purchased from me and shipped together in a single box, saving you money and me supplies and time! Please contact me for an exact quote (and don't forget to specify which items you want combined into a single shipment, your ZIP Code or Postal Code, and type of service desired - overnight, ground, priority, etc.).

• Local pickup is fine, and incurs absolutely no shipping or handling charges.

The 60-day parts and 1-year labor warranty included with this Dell Inspiron laptop covers defects in the item itself, and is limited to...

• Replacement of the part with one of similar type/quality if available,

• Repair of the item by seller if possible, or

• Refund of the actual item purchase price if a replacement is not available and repair is not possible.

Choice of remedy is at seller's discretion, and buyer is responsible for all shipping fees. In addition, any warranty claim absolutely MUST be handled directly through the seller - replacement or repairs performed by the buyer or by a third party will not be reimbursed by the seller unless advanced, written approval was granted!

Additional warranty limitations - These may seem obvious, but here they are anyway...

• This warranty does not cover damage caused by misuse of this item.

• This warranty does not cover damage caused by use with unsupported hardware, damage caused by modifications to the laptop, or damage caused by out-of-spec use (e.g., baking it in the summer sun, taking your laptop with you into the shower, etc.).

I generally accept "buyer's remorse" returns of most items if you change your mind about a purchase. The returned item must, of course, be in the exact same condition as when originally shipped, and all returns must be requested within 7 days of receipt of the item. Additionally, all returns are subject to a "restocking" fee of between 8% and 20% of the total sale price plus shipping. This fee covers the time and equipment necessary to fully retest and recertify the item, any potential item depreciation, various fees incurred to relist the item on eBay, and any PayPal fees that are not refunded to the seller even if your payment is refunded. Two-way shipping with full insurance coverage where appropriate is the buyer's responsibility. Please contact me within 7 days of item receipt to request a "buyer's remorse" return.

I will process all damage claims with the carrier and may request that you return the item. Please retain original shipping containers and notify me immediately if you suspect damage during shipment.

Finally, for those thinking about swapping out parts from their old broken Dell and then sending the this unit back for a warranty refund, that is simply, absolutely, 100% not going to work - prior to shipment, this item is extensively photographed (inside and out!), various components with identifying numbers are cataloged, and special UV and other indelible inks are used to mark random internal sections of the laptop. This is a high-value item and any attempts at fraud will be appropriately handled, so don't try!

Payment Details

• PayPal is fine, and funding via your credit card, bank account, PayPal balance, etc. are all OK -- I don't discriminate against any PayPal funding options! Using PayPal is fast, easy, and will ensure speediest delivery. For international shipments, this is the only available payment method!

• If using PayPal, I will generally only ship to confirmed PayPal addresses, although exceptions may be made for those with excellent eBay feedback on a case-by-case basis.

• Credit cards or debit cards processed through eBay's payment system are also fine and have the same advantages and benefits as PayPal payments.

• Cash is OK, but ONLY if you're doing a local pick up. I'm sure you know better than to send cash in the mail!

• If you wish to use any form of payment other than PayPal, please contact me first to check if it is a suitable method, and is allowed by eBay's payment policies. When using a non-PayPal method, there may be a shipment delay to allow time for your payment to be processed (typically several business days). Exceptions are made on a case-by-case basis and only for eBay members with exceptionally positive feedback history.

Transaction Feedback

• I typically leave feedback for buyers shortly after payment has been made. If I'm particularly busy - I have a fairly taxing 'day job' designing CPUs and custom data/image processing chips for a very high-end, next-generation medical diagnostic imaging system - that feedback may be delayed a day or two. Please rest assured, though, that I will not forget to leave it!

• I ask that once you have received your package and have thoroughly checked out your item, that you reciprocate and leave appropriate feedback for me. If you have any questions or concerns about your item, shipping, payment, or any other issue related to your purchase, please don't hesitate to email me. I will reply promptly - usually within an hour or two unless it's the wee hours of the morning and I'm asleep!

• eBay bases their fees on a member's detailed feedback ratings for communications, whether the item was as described, shipping costs, and shipping time. Although they profess that scores of 4 or better are acceptable, in practice, any score less than 5 results in significantly higher 'Final Value' fees (up to 20% higher), which in turn leads to higher prices for buyers. So, if there's anything at all about your transaction that you feel does not merit a score of '5', please let me know right away what I could have done better to earn that score.

• Shipping Time: please keep in mind that I have absolutely zero control over how long the US Post Office or other contracted carriers take to actually deliver a package to you once they have it in their possession. All I can promise is that all items are shipped either the same day as payment is received or at worst, the very next business day. Parcel Post, in particular, can take a week or longer to cover the distance between California and the East Coast, so if that poses a problem for you, you may want to opt for one of the expedited shipping options! For international buyers, please be aware that shipping time is impacted greatly by how quickly the customs agents of your country process your package. If they are particularly busy (for example, during the winter holiday season), the added delay can be quite substantial! For whichever shipping option you choose, keep in mind that the 'Shipping Time' score is meant to reflect how quickly a seller posts an item after it has been paid for - not how long the carrier takes to actually deliver the package using the buyer's chosen delivery method!!!

• Shipping Cost: Many of my listings feature free domestic First Class or Parcel Post shipping. For the rest, First Class and Parcel Post shipping, or upgrades to Priority and Express shipping, are typically provided at a slight discount to published USPS rates plus transit insurance and packaging materials cost. For international customers, shipping costs are calculated using the lowest published USPS rates for the available shipping options, plus transit insurance, packaging materials cost, and a very small amount (one US dollar or less) to cover the overhead of filling out various US customs forms.

Thanks for viewing my listing!
