Compact Dell Gaming Desktop

This small-form-factor Dell desktop arrives new with Windows 11 Pro installed. An Intel Core i5-8500 processor runs at 3.00 GHz base and up to 4.10 GHz turbo with 9 MB smart cache. Sixteen gigabytes of DDR4 memory, a 256 GB SSD and a 500 GB HDD provide quick boot times and ample storage. A dedicated NVIDIA GeForce GT 1030 with 2 GB GDDR5 handles graphics output over HDMI and DisplayPort.

Suited for casual gaming and office work

The system fits buyers who want a ready-to-use Windows 11 Pro machine for everyday tasks, media playback and light gaming at modest settings. It is not for users who need higher graphical performance for modern titles at increased detail levels. Builders requiring a larger chassis for additional drive bays or full-size expansion cards should consider a different form factor.

GT 1030 2 GB GDDR5 graphics card

The GT 1030 supplies dedicated video memory and dual video outputs for multi-monitor setups. Its low-profile design matches the small-form-factor case and keeps power draw modest. This GPU determines whether the desktop meets the graphical demands of the intended workload.

Questions about this item

Does the system ship with the RGB keyboard, mouse and headphones shown in the description, or must they be purchased separately?

The Dell desktop arrives with an RGB keyboard, RGB mouse and RGB headphones included in the box, so no extra peripherals are required to start using the PC.

Should I choose the 256 GB SSD or the 500 GB HDD for the operating system and games?

Install Windows 11 Pro and your most-played titles on the 256 GB SSD for faster boot and load times, then use the 500 GB HDD for larger media libraries and backups.

What frame rates can I expect from the GT 1030 2 GB GDDR5 card at 1080p in typical esports titles?

The GT 1030 with 2 GB GDDR5 delivers playable 1080p performance in lighter esports games such as CS:GO, League of Legends or Valorant at medium settings, while demanding AAA titles will require lower detail to stay smooth.
