Compact Desktop for Everyday Work
The Dell OptiPlex 3040 Micro PC is a mini desktop computer powered by an Intel Core i5-6500T processor running at a 2.50GHz base frequency with a 3.10GHz turbo. It comes with 8GB of memory and a 128GB SSD. Windows 11 Pro is pre-installed, and a wired keyboard and mouse are included for immediate use.
Connectivity and Network Limits
The system provides Fast Ethernet through a single RJ45 port for wired networking. Front-facing connectivity includes two USB ports and two audio jacks. Video output is handled by integrated Intel HD Graphics 530, which drives displays via DisplayPort and HDMI. Wireless networking is supported through the included Wi-Fi adapter.
Pre-Purchase Setup Checks
Verify that your monitors accept DisplayPort or HDMI input to match the available video outputs. Ensure you have a free mains socket for the supplied power cables. The 128GB SSD capacity suits light workloads but may require external storage for larger media libraries. Confirm that the mini PC form factor fits your intended desk or mounting location.
