The specs says that users can choose to install either the latest GTX 1080, the newer GTX 1070, the GeForce GTX 745, the GTX 750, the GTX 960, or GTX 970. AMD GPU is not available for the Dell XPS. The Dell desktop also comes with a laser mouse, a Dell KB216 keyboard and the 64-bit Windows 10.

One feature that makes the unit better is its silence. The XPS Tower virtually produces no sound. It has thermally controlled fans that only spins the exact amount needed.
