Processor
The Central Processing Unit (CPU) is like the brains of your desktop computer. Its performance determines how fast and responsive your PC is. Generally, a processor with newer architecture, more CPU cores, higher TDP (measured in W), and faster clock speed (measured in GHz) tends to be more expensive and run faster than others with older architecture, fewer CPU cores, lower TDP, and lower clock speed.
For Alienware Aurora Ryzen Edition R14 Desktop, you have options to configure it with a 65W AMD Zen 3 6-core AMD Ryzen 5 5600X up to a 105W 16-core AMD Ryzen 9 5950X with a boost speed up to 4.90 GHz.
While Dell Inspiron 3910 Desktop has configurations with a 46W 12th Generation Intel Alder Lake dual-core Intel Celeron G6900 up to a 65W 12-core Intel Core i7-12700F with a boost speed up to 4.80 GHz.
Memory
The Random Access Memory or RAM is the super-fast and temporary storage used to handle all active tasks, apps, and games that will go away when your PC turns off. The more memory your PC has, the better multitasking your PC can handle without having to reload data from slower permanent storage that includes the hard disk drive or solid-state drive.
Fortunately, both PC allows you to upgrade later if you are unsatisfied with the amount of memory on your PC. The Alienware Aurora Ryzen Edition R14 Desktop has four RAM slots that support up to 128GB of 3600MHz dual-channel DDR4 XMP memory. On the other hand, the Dell Inspiron 3910 Desktop has two RAM slots that you can upgrade up to 64GB of 3200MHz dual-channel DDR4 memory.
Ports
Computer ports are the interface for connecting your PC to its peripheral devices or other PCs. The most common peripherals are keyboard, mouse, monitor, flash drive, speaker, and printer. Most of them use Universal Serial Bus (USB) as their connection to your computer. So the PC with more USB ports can connect to more peripherals at the same time.
There is a total number of 11 USB ports available on the Alienware Aurora Ryzen Edition R14 Desktop, three more than the Dell Inspiron 3910 Desktop that has only 8 USB ports. On top of the number of USB ports, the type and version of each USB port are also necessary for determining how fast it is.
The Alienware Aurora Ryzen Edition R14 Desktop has nine USB Type-A ports and two USB Type-C ports. It has four ports that support USB 2.0 (480 Mbps), five ports that support USB 3.2 Gen 1 (5 Gbps), and two ports that support USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10 Gbps).
For Dell Inspiron 3910 Desktop, it has seven USB Type-A ports and one USB Type-C port. The PC has four ports that support USB 2.0 (480 Mbps) and four ports that support USB 3.2 Gen 1 (5 Gbps).
