Computer Towers

The versatility of computer towers and desktops

When it comes to business computers, desktop models are often the right technology solution. While these devices can be large, computer towers are more versatile when it comes to customization, upgrades and display options.

There is no question that laptops, mini-PCs and all-in-ones may offer a sleeker and more aesthetically pleasing user experience. However, desktop computer towers are still the best computer for business in terms of cost-effectiveness and scalability.

Dell has computer towers in several desktop product lines. From entry-level desktops to the most powerful workstations available today, Dell makes it easy to find a desktop for every workload and user work style.

Advantages of computer towers and desktops

Faster upgrades
Swapping out or upgrading components is far simpler with a computer tower than with a laptop or all-in-one, as most components are removable. This is one of the clearest advantages of computer towers, and it can help your small business adapt to the future.

Cost-effective power
The cost of computer towers and the components they house is typically less than the cost of laptops, all-in-ones and computers with other form factors. This is particularly important for companies that are focused more on the bottom line than maintaining a certain “aesthetic.”

Simple customization
A tower makes it easy to configure a desktop with the processors, memory, drives and graphics cards that are ideally suited to the user’s workload. Usually very accessible to upgrading or replacing parts. If you are interested in ensuring that your organization can scale in the near future, then thinking about customization is essential.

Easier cooling
Computer towers are designed with more space around components, making it easier to keep them cool.

Flexible display options
Because the monitor is separate from the tower, users have many more options for choosing the display that is ideal for their needs.
