Dell Dimension E510 desktop computer Review Summary
Dell has long been to computer of choice for those looking for an affordable yet reliable and powerful computer and the Dell Dimension E510 tower computer seems to fit that milepost and our community of savvy reviewers mostly agrees. While a couple of reviewers had issues with their Dimension E510’s, the overwhelming sentiment fell along these lines: “I can safely say every penny I spent on this machine was worth it.” Dell built the Dimension E510 around the Intel Pentium 4 processor @ 2.8GHz, and Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition, up to 4.0GB of DDR2 RAM, DVD-ROM drive, wired NIC. And the Dimension E510 is equipped a SATA hard drive with space for an additional drive, and two external 5.25” drive bays. Our reviewers passionately recommend this affordable full tower computer with the new BTX desktop design. Read what else our reviews have to say about the Dimension E510, as well as the Dell Dimension C521.

As 2005 came to a close, it became obvious my 300MHz, almost 8 year old computer wasn't going to hack it anymore. It had served me admirably throughout college and for the first 3 1/2 years after, but I was tired. Tired of waiting for it to boot up, tired of waiting for my dial up connection (all...

Bottom-Line: The Dimension E510 Media Center Mini-tower is powerful home workstation that is more then adequate for Media Center duties, but also serves well as a small business server platform.
And so it happened; my ever slowing Pentium III based server finally died on me, and it was not a graceful death. When she died she took two hard drives with her. And so I needed to replace the server, my applications server, with a new box, but this time I decided not to go the built-it-myself route, but go in a different direction. Lucky for me my company receives a Dell Employee discount of up...

Hello, People;
This PC is a modest version of something cheap. The power is enough to squeeze is just enough to start the PC up and open the email with the Internet explorer. The problems with today's programs are far beyond out fixing abilities. More programs are made to suck the powers out of the computers leaving us little room to do our work. In this E510 version, highest RAM is 4 GB which is very good. From what I have seen on the picture, there are two hard drives in the tower. Therefore, it would make it easier to transfer the files from one HD to the next. Two CDs or two DVDs drives or a...

I had mine for a year, and then it crashed........Dell did replace it with an upgraded computer the E520 , and also upgraded the software, so they are pretty good as far as standing by their product... but someone else I know also has a refurbished one, ( maybe it was mine) and his is always breaking down.
