ou have no shortage of options if you're seeking an all-around desktop PC that is capable of handling schoolwork, web browsing, and media without a jaw-dropping price tag. If you're already a fan of Dell or just want to stick with a well-known brand, the company's Inspiron 3671 desktop is one of its budget-friendly devices.
Design
If you haven't shopped for a new desktop PC in some time, you might be surprised by how modest the Dell Inspiron 3671 unit is in terms of size and heft. This mini tower stands less than 15 inches tall and 12 inches deep, with a base weight of just 11.6 pounds. There are smaller desktop PC form factors out there, but compared to other towers, it doesn't take up a huge amount of space or feel overly imposing on a desk.
Ports
On the upper back are the rear ports, including audio inputs as well as HDMI and VGA ports for a monitor. You'll also find four additional USB 2.0 ports here, but none of the smaller USB-C ports that are especially common on laptops these days. There is also an Ethernet port for wired internet, although the PC also supports Wi-Fi, while a trio of expansion card slots are below in case you want to make upgrades later. It has two FH PCIe x1 slots and one FH PCIe x16 slot.
The Dell Inspiron 3671 is not designed to be a powerhouse, and the specs in our configuration make it a pretty middle-of-the-road option. It runs a hexa-core Intel Core i5 9400 processor, and while it isn't the newest version (there are 10th-generation Core i5 chips out there), at least it's pretty current.
