Hey redxps630!
This is a really useful breakdown of Dell OptiPlex models by year — thanks for sharing! I’ve noticed that performance differences between Gen1 and Gen2 CPUs in these systems can be quite noticeable, especially for office or light design tasks. For anyone looking to revive an older OptiPlex like the 980 or 390 series, upgrading to an SSD and maxing out the RAM can make a huge difference.
Also, if you’re planning to reinstall the OS or drivers, it’s best to get the latest official builds for stability and compatibility. I recently tested a few older models and found that the official Dell site still offers reliable support downloads for them.
