£250 Dell Optiplex "gaming PC" Breakdown 2023 Build
This is a physical look at my Optiplex 3020 "gaming" tower. What I spent, did and what I advise you to do.
In the video I say all the gen 4 Intel Optiplex's have PCie x16 2.0, I found out since 7020 & 9020 models have version 3.0. Unfortunately I can't find a one of these for less than £100 which puts you into 6th gen territory that has the PCie x 16 3.0 anyway.
