Compact business desktop for office and remote work

The Dell OptiPlex 3000 SFF is a small-form-factor desktop built around a 12th Gen Intel Core i5-12400 processor with 6 cores reaching 4.4 GHz. It ships with 16 GB of DDR4 memory and a 512 GB SSD, pre-loaded with Windows 11 Pro. The compact black chassis measures 20 x 19 x 9 cm and includes a wired keyboard and mouse, making it a ready-to-deploy solution for everyday productivity tasks.

Expansion limited by small form factor

The SFF case restricts internal expansion to low-profile cards and offers only the two supplied video ports: one DisplayPort and one HDMI. Integrated graphics drive both outputs, so multi-monitor setups are capped at two displays. A single RJ45 port provides wired networking; no additional video or high-speed I/O interfaces are present on the rear panel.

Verify low-profile clearance

Check that any add-in card you plan to install fits a low-profile slot and that your monitors accept DisplayPort or HDMI input. The 512 GB SSD is the sole internal drive bay provided; additional storage requires external solutions. Ensure the included wired peripherals suit your workspace, as no wireless adapters are mentioned in the specification.
