Thoughts on Where to Start with 3 Computer Options
I have a Dell Precision T7500, Precision T3600, and Precision T3500. None of them are working, and I have not started troubleshooting just yet (although the T3500 turns on then immediately turns off shortly thereafter and I may have a question about how to tell if it is the PSU that is causing the problem). I want to turn the T3500 into a beast of a home computer able to do graphic design, video editing, and gaming (so many questions about this direction including cooling, if the motherboard can handle it, etc…), I would like to convert another computer into a home network, and I would like to sell the third as a gaming computer. My questions are:
- What are your thoughts in turning the T7500 into such a diverse and power computer?
- Which computer, the T3500 or T3600, could be better converted into a SOHO computer and which would be better as a gaming computer to sell?
- Any advice/suggestions on what I should use for a GPU, PSU, Cooling, and Storage for each of them?
- Are there any manuals for any of these computers?
- How do I test a PSU to see if it is the reason why the T7500 won’t turn on? I can’t post a video to demonstrate what I am hearing to you, so if you have suggestions let me know. I power it on and it immediately goes off.
I realize I should place these as separate questions, but the questions are intertwined, so I wanted to combine them. Any thoughts would be helpful! Thanks!
