DELL OptiPlex 7470 all-in-one PC 23.8" i5-9500 32 GB 512 GB + 1 TB

Purpose-built all-in-one

The Dell OptiPlex 7470 integrates a 23.8 inch 1920 x 1080 multi-touch IPS display with a 9th Gen Intel hexa-core i5-9500 processor at 3.0 GHz. It ships with 32 GB DDR4 SODIMM memory, a 512 GB M.2 SSD plus a 1 TB hard drive, and Windows 10 Pro. Integrated Intel UHD Graphics 630 drives the screen, while Gigabit Ethernet, Bluetooth 5 and a USB Type-C Gen 2 port handle connectivity. A webcam, USB keyboard and mouse complete the business-ready package.

Best for fixed office desks

This all-in-one suits organisations that want a single-cable workstation with touch input and a small footprint. Buyers who need discrete graphics for 3D rendering, user-replaceable graphics cards, or a chassis that accepts standard ATX components should look elsewhere. The soldered-down processor and integrated graphics also rule out later CPU upgrades, so spec the memory and storage you need at purchase.

Sustained workload behaviour

Under continuous load the hexa-core i5-9500 maintains its 3.0 GHz base clock across all six cores without the higher turbo frequencies seen in short bursts. The integrated UHD 630 graphics share system memory, so extended compute tasks reduce bandwidth available to the CPU. Thermal management in the sealed chassis keeps noise low but limits peak performance duration compared with tower workstations that have larger coolers.
