DELL OptiPlex 3010 SFF i5-3470 3.20GHz 16GB DDR3 1TB desktop PC

OptiPlex 3010 SFF desktop

This Dell OptiPlex 3010 Small Form Factor desktop is built around an Intel 3rd Gen i5-3470 quad-core processor running at 3.20 GHz with a 3.60 GHz turbo boost. It ships with 16 GB of DDR3 memory and a 3.5-inch 1 TB hard drive. The system includes a DVD±RW drive, integrated Intel HD Graphics 2500, Gigabit Ethernet, WiFi, and Windows 10 Pro 64-bit. A USB keyboard and mouse are also supplied. It suits students or home-office users who need a ready-to-use PC for everyday productivity.

Bundled peripherals and OS

The included USB keyboard and mouse let you start working immediately without buying separate input devices. Windows 10 Pro 64-bit is pre-installed and activated, so there is no need to acquire or configure an operating system. The DVD±RW drive adds the ability to install legacy software from disc or create local backups on optical media. These items reduce the extra purchases required to make the system functional.

SFF form-factor constraints

The Small Form Factor chassis limits internal expansion to low-profile cards and restricts the number of drive bays available for additional storage. Integrated Intel HD Graphics 2500 provides basic display output over VGA and HDMI but is not suited for demanding 3D workloads or modern gaming. DDR3 memory uses the 240-pin DIMM standard, so later DDR generations cannot be installed. Buyers who need discrete graphics performance or multiple internal drives should consider a larger tower platform.
