Dell ECT1250 Tower Desktop

The Dell ECT1250 is a new tower desktop built around an Intel Core Ultra 9 285K processor with 24 cores and a 3.7 GHz base clock. It ships with 48 GB of DDR5 5600 MHz memory and a 1 TB PCIe NVMe M.2 solid-state drive. Intel UHD Graphics handles the display output through one DisplayPort 1.4 and one HDMI 2.1 port. Windows 11 Home is pre-installed.

Suited to AI-assisted office work and multi-tasking

The 24-core CPU and on-board Intel AI Boost NPU give strong performance for business applications, education tasks and everyday productivity that can use local AI acceleration. The 48 GB of memory supports heavy multi-tasking and large data sets. Buyers who need discrete graphics for 3D rendering, video editing or gaming should look at a system with a dedicated GPU. Users requiring more than 1 TB of fast internal storage will need to add drives.

Check your display and peripheral needs

Verify that your monitor accepts DisplayPort 1.4 or HDMI 2.1 input to use the integrated graphics outputs. The tower provides one USB-C 3.2 Gen 1 port, three USB-A 3.2 Gen 1 ports and four USB-A 2.0 ports plus a wired keyboard and mouse in the box. Confirm the physical footprint of 324.3 mm height, 154 mm width and 293 mm depth fits your desk space. A wired Gigabit Ethernet port and MediaTek Wi-Fi 6 MT7920 with Bluetooth 5.4 handle network connectivity.
