  • Strong single-application performance well-suited to large-batch media file conversion; respectable amount of internal upgrade room.
  • Multitasking performance from dual-core CPU loses out to quad-core systems that only cost a little more.
  • Dells Inspiron I530-120B is a fine workaday desktop, but we find it could use some more excitement. It has its strengths, and its features are reasonable for its price, but we wish Dell had done more to differentiate this desktop.

  • The Dell Inspiron 530/2583 might be considerably slower than the other systems here, but it costs a whopping £70 less, is perfect for novice users - and there is some room for upgrades later on....

  • Good performance. Decent expansion options. Bloatware-free configuration.
  • Lacks Media Center functionality. Smallish hard drive. Only 30 days of McAfee virus protection.
  • While the Dell Inspiron 530 is a capable system for tackling home tasks (as well as some multimedia apps), there are better value systems that offer more....

  • The Dell Inspiron 530/1142 has its perks. As well as its multitasking capabilities, it comes with an enormous storage capacity of 965GB and a TV tuner. Its 20in AOC monitor is also a decent component, providing considerably more desktop space than the...

  • Discrete graphics card has its own memory, so it wont steal from the system RAM; built-in Bluetooth.
  • The Inspiron 530 was outperformed on a few tests by a system that costs $100 less.
  • PC vendors have very few tricks remaining to differentiate their systems from the competition, which makes the built-in Bluetooth in the Dell Inspiron 530 unique. Theres little else that makes this system stand out, but if you need Bluetooth in your b...

  • Great starting price, good pre-built options available
  • No monitor included
  • Dells new Inspiron 530 desktop computers start out at an excellent budget price, although the components you get for the $400 original sticker price arent exactly cutting edge. For example, the default processor at baseline is only a 1.6GHz Intel Ce...

  • Abstract:  Although it may seem odd to say so, Dell has been at the forefront of decent looking, cheap computer design for many years now. When it introduced the black and grey cases that have now become synonymous with the brand, it was an absolute revelation. Blan...
