🎯 Final Verdict
Best AI-Ready Business Tower – Latest 2025 Tech + Expandable!
Honest Assessment: Latest AI-Ready Tower, BUT Need to Buy Monitor!
The Dell Pro Tower Plus QBT1250 at ₹1,00,590 is an excellent AI-ready business tower featuring the latest Intel Core Ultra 7 265 (20 cores, 13 TOPS NPU), Windows 11 Pro, 16GB DDR5-5600, 512GB SSD, exceptional expandability (4 PCIe slots + 3 M.2), and 3-year warranty. CRITICAL: This is a traditional tower PC – you must buy monitor, webcam separately! Total cost with accessories: ₹1.12-1.19 lakh. Perfect for businesses wanting upgradable, future-proof desktops with latest 2025 technology!
What makes this special: First mainstream desktop with AI NPU – The Core Ultra 7 265’s 13 TOPS Neural Processing Unit accelerates AI workloads, enabling Windows Studio Effects, AI noise suppression, and future AI features in Windows. The Arrow Lake architecture is 10-37% faster than 13th Gen with better efficiency. Tower design offers unmatched expandability – can add dedicated GPU (RTX 4060), more RAM (32GB+), multiple NVMe SSDs, Wi-Fi cards, and more. With 3 M.2 slots + PCIe Gen4 x16 slot, this grows with your business needs for 5-10 years!
At ₹1,00,590 (+ monitor ₹10-15K), this is the best AI-ready business tower for 2025. Yes, total cost (₹1.12-1.19L) is higher than budget options, but you get: latest 2025 CPU with AI NPU, excellent expandability, easy upgrades, 3-year warranty, and ability to choose your own monitor. Our recommendation: Buy this if you’re a business wanting future-proof investment, plan to upgrade components later, need multi-monitor setup, want latest AI-ready technology, or already have monitor. For space-constrained offices wanting clean setup with display included, HP ProOne 440 AIO (₹1.08L) is better choice. But for power users, IT departments, and businesses prioritizing expandability: Dell Tower Plus is THE choice!

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q1: Does this include a monitor/display?
A: NO! Tower PC only! This is a traditional tower desktop – the PC is a separate box. You MUST buy monitor separately (₹8,000-20,000 for office monitors). Total cost: ₹1,00,590 (tower) + ₹10-15K (monitor) + ₹1.5-3K (webcam if needed) = ₹1.12-1.19 lakh complete setup!
Q2: What is Core Ultra 7 265 and how is it different?
A: Latest 2025 Arrow Lake CPU with AI! Core Ultra 7 265 has: 20 cores (8P+12E), 5.3GHz max turbo, 30MB cache, AND most importantly: 13 TOPS NPU (Neural Processing Unit) – Intel’s first mainstream desktop CPU with built-in AI accelerator! This enables Windows Studio Effects, AI noise cancellation, and future AI features. 10-37% faster than i7-13700 with better efficiency!
Q3: What does 13 TOPS NPU mean for me?
A: AI acceleration built into CPU! NPU (Neural Processing Unit) is dedicated AI chip that handles: Windows Studio Effects (background blur, eye contact correction), AI noise suppression in video calls, AI-enhanced photo/video editing, and upcoming AI features in Windows. Offloads AI work from CPU/GPU for better efficiency. Makes your PC “AI-ready” for future applications!
Q4: Can I add a dedicated GPU for gaming/CAD?
A: YES! Has PCIe Gen4 x16 slot! Can add GPUs like: RTX 4060 (light gaming/CAD), RTX 4070 (better performance), or professional GPUs. However, base 260W PSU limits options – recommend upgrading to 360W Platinum PSU (available option) if adding power-hungry GPU. Perfect for CAD software (AutoCAD, SolidWorks), light gaming, or video editing!
Q5: Tower vs All-in-One – which is better?
A: Different needs! Choose Tower if: Want upgrades, have monitor, need expandability, multi-monitor setup, future-proofing. Choose AIO if: Limited space, want clean setup, need complete package (display included), no upgrades needed. Tower: ₹1.12-1.19L total (with monitor). AIO: ₹1.08L complete (HP ProOne 440). Tower better for power users, AIO better for space-saving!
Q6: Can I upgrade RAM and storage later?
A: YES! Very easy in tower! RAM: Can add more DDR5 sticks (expand to 32GB+ easily). Storage: Has 3 M.2 2230/2280 slots + SATA HDD slot – can add 2-3 more NVMe SSDs! Also has 1 SATA ODD slot for optical drive. Tower design = super easy to open and upgrade. One of the main advantages vs All-in-One PCs!
Q7: Does this have Wi-Fi or need Ethernet cable?
A: Ethernet only (no Wi-Fi included!): Has RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet port. If need wireless, must buy Wi-Fi card (has M.2 2230 slot for Wi-Fi/Bluetooth combo card – ₹1,500-3,000). Or use Ethernet cable (recommended for office PCs anyway – more stable + faster than Wi-Fi!)
Q8: What monitor should I buy with this?
A: Recommendations by use: Office work: 24″ FHD (1920×1080) IPS monitor – ₹10-12K (Dell, HP, LG). Productivity: 27″ FHD/QHD IPS – ₹15-20K. Multi-monitor: 2-3× 24″ FHD monitors. Tower has 3× DisplayPort 1.4a outputs – can connect up to 3 monitors! Choose based on desk space and budget.
Q9: Is this suitable for video conferencing?
A: Need to buy webcam! Tower has NO built-in webcam (unlike AIOs). Must buy USB webcam: Budget ₹1,500-2,000 (Logitech C270/C310), Better quality ₹3,000-5,000 (Logitech C920/C922). However, Core Ultra 7’s AI NPU enables Windows Studio Effects (background blur, eye contact) which work with any webcam!
Q10: What’s the total cost with all accessories?
A: ₹1,12,000 – ₹1,19,000 complete! Tower: ₹1,00,590. Monitor (24″ FHD): ₹10,000-15,000. Webcam (if needed): ₹1,500-3,000. KB+Mouse: Included! Cables: ₹500. Total: ₹1,12,000-1,19,000. If you already have monitor, only ₹1,00,590 + webcam = ₹1.02-1.04L!
Q11: How is Dell warranty and support?
A: Excellent 3-year warranty! Includes: 3 years parts, 3 years labor, 3 years onsite repair. Dell sends technician to your location (no need to ship tower). Business-grade support with dedicated helpline. Can extend warranty or add ProSupport Plus (priority support, accidental damage coverage) for additional cost. Very reliable!
Q12: Can this handle CAD software like AutoCAD?
A: 2D CAD: YES. 3D CAD: Add GPU! Core Ultra 7 265 handles: AutoCAD 2D (excellent), light 3D modeling (okay), SolidWorks basics (acceptable with integrated graphics). For heavy 3D CAD, rendering, simulations: Add dedicated GPU (RTX 4060/4070). Has PCIe Gen4 x16 slot – easy to add! Upgrade PSU to 360W if adding power-hungry GPU.
Q13: Why Core Ultra 7 265 vs older i7-13700?
A: Newer = Better! Core Ultra 7 265: Arrow Lake 2025, 20 cores, 13 TOPS AI NPU, better efficiency, 10-37% faster. i7-13700: Raptor Lake 2023, 16 cores, NO NPU, older. Ultra 7 has built-in AI accelerator for future Windows features. Both good for office work, but Ultra 7 more future-proof!
Q14: Can I connect 3 monitors for trading/productivity?
A: YES! Triple DisplayPort outputs! Has 3× DisplayPort 1.4a (HBR3) on rear – can connect 3 monitors simultaneously! Perfect for: stock trading (multiple charts), productivity (spreadsheet + email + browser), video editing (timeline + preview + bins). Integrated graphics handles 3× FHD monitors easily. Great for multi-tasking workflows!
Q15: Final verdict – should I buy this?
A: YES if you fit the profile! Buy if: Want upgradable tower, have/will buy monitor, need multi-monitor setup, want latest 2025 AI tech, plan future upgrades (GPU/RAM/storage), IT departments standardizing towers, power users. Total ₹1.12-1.19L with monitor. Choose AIO instead if: Limited space, want clean setup, need complete package (display included), no upgrades ever. This tower is BEST for businesses wanting future-proof, expandable investment with latest Core Ultra 7 AI technology!
