Micro business desktop for office productivity

The Dell OptiPlex 7040 Micro is a compact business desktop built around a quad-core Intel Core i5-6500T processor running at 2.50 GHz with 6 MB L3 cache. It ships with 16 GB of DDR4 memory and a 512 GB SSD. Windows 10 Pro 64-bit comes pre-installed. Integrated Intel HD Graphics 530 drives the display outputs. This unit is sold in refurbished condition.

Intel HD Graphics 530 display limits

Integrated Intel HD Graphics 530 provides DisplayPort and HDMI connectivity with optional additional video out for up to three displays. The GPU relies on shared system memory rather than dedicated video memory. It handles general business applications and multi-monitor productivity but is not suited for 3D rendering, CAD workloads or modern gaming titles. No discrete graphics card can be added to this micro form factor.

16 GB DDR4 and 512 GB SSD headroom

The 16 GB DDR4 configuration covers typical office multitasking with dozens of browser tabs, email clients and document editing simultaneously. Memory slots are limited by the micro chassis design. The 512 GB SSD holds the operating system, applications and a large working set of project files. Users with extensive local media libraries or virtual machine images will reach capacity limits and need external storage.
