I recently was given a Dell Optiplex 7010 back from a friend who, after using it for some time, had gone the route of putting a better gaming PC together. Now that the GPU market has left the plane of reality, I want to take a look at how well this system, featuring an i5-3470 and a GTX 1060 3GB, does in a few popular titles to evaluate whether or not the Dell Optiplex route to putting together a gaming PC is still viable in 2021.
