If your need for speed and power is more along the lines of a creative outlet, the XPS is calling your name. It’s going to feature 9th gen processors and will be able to handle any sort of video and graphics work. It will also come with Intel Quick Sync Video so the hardware works harder for your video needs, plus it has Intel Optane memory, which loads up your most-used apps faster. You’ll have the family vacation video edited and ready to watch before you’ve unpacked the car! New XPS desktops will be coming October 29 starting at $1,099 at Dell.com.
