GovAuctions Summary

A Dell OptiPlex 5040 Tower with erased drive, no OS, no power cord, powers on but untested for actual workability. Computer refurbishers and office liquidators buy these for the case, PSU, and motherboard to upgrade and resell or harvest. Confirm the motherboard boots cleanly to BIOS and the power supply is stable - a failing capacitor or motherboard fault means you own a parts-only unit.

Estimated flip margin and comp range available with Pro. Summary may occasionally contain inaccuracies; check the full description before bidding.
