As the unassuming XPS Desktop shows, you don't need RGB glitz to deliver a powerful gaming PC

The Dell XPS Desktop 8960called simply the New XPS like a nondescript office computer, but in truth it's a gaming PC. Beneath the unassuming exterior you'll find the latest Intel 13th Gen chips and Nvidia GeForce RTX 4000 series GPUs.

To be specific, an RTX 4080, as that's the only option that Dell currently offers: the base spec with integrated graphics costs £1,299 inc VAT, jumping up by £1,040 if you select the RTX 4080 (this includes a 20% "limited time offer" saving, but we suspect the offer will stick around).
