Refurbished OptiPlex 3040 Slim Desktop

This refurbished Dell OptiPlex 3040 is a slim business desktop powered by an Intel Core i5-6500 3.20 GHz quad-core processor with 6 MB L3 cache. It comes with 8 GB memory, a 256 GB SSD and Windows 10 Pro 64-bit pre-installed. Integrated Intel HD Graphics 530 handles display output for everyday office tasks.

Suited for general office work not for heavy

The compact small form factor fits tight workspaces and supports typical productivity applications, web browsing and video conferencing. Buyers who need discrete graphics performance for 3D rendering or modern gaming should consider a different system. The 8 GB memory and integrated graphics limit multitasking with large datasets or multiple high-resolution displays.

256 GB SSD capacity determines storage fit

The single 256 GB solid-state drive provides the total internal storage available for the operating system, applications and user files. Users with large media libraries, extensive project archives or local database workloads will likely require external or secondary storage. No additional drive bays are mentioned in the specifications.
