Big ideas with creative elements sometimes require a lot of power or, to be more specific, newer systems with capable hardware. Even graphic design using cloud solutions like Canva and Adobe tools require a little extra power that older laptops and desktops may not have, at least if you haven’t upgraded in a while. But don’t fret. Dell has you covered with top PC deals for creatives and big ideas — busywork, too! We’re talking hefty discounts on gaming PCs, laptops, workstations, monitors and additional PC accessories, including even high-fidelity webcams.

What you should shop in Dell’s top PC deals for creatives and big ideas

It takes a bit of work to stay on the bleeding edge, meaning you have to upgrade every couple of years if you want to build using the latest and greatest tools. That’s definitely the case for creative work like graphic design, media streaming, music, and beyond. That can get expensive really fast if you’re buying all your gear at full price. Fortunately, Dell understands and has dropped some incredible top PC deals just before the start of the new school year and the end of summer.

A great example is the , usually $2,345. That saves you $350 on a desktop with a 14th Gen Intel Core i9, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070, 32GB of DDR5 RAM and a 1TB solid-state drive. You can choose a few upgrades, which would change the price, but the base model has plenty of power for pretty much anything you’d want to do, from gaming to visual tasks like photo or video editing.

Overall, Dell’s top PC deals give you enough time to upgrade your laptop or desktop and keep the momentum going. Here are a few of our favorites from the sale:

  • Dell 24-inch full HD monitor —
  • Dell UD22 universal dock —
  • Dell WB7022 UltraSharp webcam —
  • Alienware 34-inch curved QD-OLED gaming monitor —
  • Latitude 5540 laptop with 13th Gen Intel Core i7 —
  • Alienware m18 R2 gaming laptop with RTX 4080 —
  • Alienware Aurora R16 gaming desktop with RTX 4090 —

While we have outlined some of the best deals as part of the event, we still recommend browsing yourself to see what’s available. We couldn’t possibly include everything here. Dell is offering excellent deals on laptops, desktops, workstations, monitors, accessories, and more. Even if you need something like a new webcam, now’s the time to grab one.

Dell is also offering Back to School offers, where customers can get up to 10% off all products with a valid student email. That’s 10% off Inspiron, XPS, Alienware PCs, Alienware and S Series monitors, and Dell brand electronics and accessories.

Save $400 on this souped-up Dell PC
Dell XPS Desktop 8960 with the side panel removed.

A powerful desktop PC is a machine that’s built to last and can do literally anything you want it to, both now and down the line. And one of the best things about desktops is how simple it is to take them apart and add new peripherals. We call that future-proofing, but not everyone is going to want to build and maintain a totally customized PC. That’s why brands like Dell produce a number of desktops that are fast and reliable from the get-go, so you won’t have to worry about upgrading parts so quickly.

We always have our eyes open for desktop computer deals, which led us to this incredible offer from Dell: For a limited time, when you order the Intel Core i9 and GeForce RTX 4070 configuration of the Dell XPS 8960, you’ll save $400. At full price, this model sells for $2,345.
