DELL ECT1250 desktop PC Core Ultra 9 285K 16GB 512GB RTX 3050

Processor and platform

The Dell ECT1250 tower desktop is built around an Intel Core Ultra 9 285K processor with 24 cores and 36MB of L3 cache, running at 3.7GHz with turbo up to 5.70GHz. It ships with 16GB of DDR5 5600MHz memory and a 512GB NVMe solid-state drive. Windows 11 Home is pre-installed and the system includes an integrated Intel AI Boost NPU.

Bundled peripherals and connectivity

A wired Dell KB216 keyboard and MS116 mouse are included in the box. Wireless connectivity uses a MediaTek Wi-Fi 6 MT7920 card with MU-MIMO and Bluetooth 5.4, alongside a gigabit Ethernet port. Video outputs comprise one DisplayPort 1.4, one HDMI 2.1 and one DVI port. Front and rear USB ports provide a mix of USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A, Type-C and USB 2.0 connections plus a headset jack and media card reader.

Graphics, storage and expansion headroom

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 with 6GB of GDDR6 memory handles mainstream creative workloads and casual gaming at 1080p, while the 512GB NVMe drive offers fast boot and application loading. The tower chassis measures 324.3mm high, 154mm wide and 293mm deep, weighing 5.45kg, with a Kensington lock slot and padlock loop for physical security. Buyers needing larger local storage arrays or multi-GPU compute capacity will find the single M.2 slot and single discrete graphics card limiting.
