The conventional computer is what most people will consider as either a desktop that sits horizontally on the desk, or a vertical tower sitting on the floor next to the desk. Both systems will be options here. Since there is more flexibility with these particular systems, there will be more requirements as far capabilities and ports go. Conventional Desktops aren’t as popular anymore due to the rise of affordable notebook PCs, and the personal computer truly personal. However, there are some requisites that all conventional desktops must have.
All desktops must have two 2280 NVME drives, and they are at least 128GB capacity. It is recommended, but not required to have RAID support. The memory must be at least 16GB, and instead of using DIMM, the conventional desktop must use SODIMM. This is in effort to reduce production demands by producing both DIMMs, and SODIMMs since SODIMMs are required for notebook PCs. Maximum memory must be at least 128GB (2×64GB). The conventional PC must have 6 USB ports in the rear, along with a RJ45-1GBPS connection. There must be a PCI-X1, and PCI-X16 slot. The X16 slot will be for the choice graphics card. Since a graphics card is assumed to be installed into a conventional PC, there is no requirement for a monitor port, since they will be on the graphics card. If there is no graphics card, the motherboard will support graphics, and allow for a USB-C to DVI cable.
For the case, the system must support two 2.5″ internal drive bays. This is in case the user would want additional SSDs. There must also be an SDXC card reader on the front of the case, and the case must support for two 5.25″ drive bays in the front as well. While these requirements may seem outdated, there is a reason that someone chooses conventional desktops, and the requirements on the case should reflect those needs.
