Dell OptiPlex 3040 Micro desktop PC

This compact desktop computer uses a 6th Gen Intel Core i7-6700T processor with a 2.80GHz base frequency and 3.60GHz turbo frequency. It comes with 16GB DDR4 memory and a 1TB SSD for fast storage. Windows 11 Pro is pre-installed along with a wireless keyboard and mouse.

Suited for office work and home study setups

The small form factor fits tight desk spaces and supports dual displays via HDMI and DisplayPort. Integrated Intel HD Graphics 530 handles general productivity and video playback. Buyers who need a discrete graphics card for 3D rendering or gaming should look at larger towers with expansion slots.

The Micro chassis limits internal upgrades

Only low-profile components fit inside the 3040 case. The 1TB SSD provides the primary storage capacity. Users requiring additional drive bays or a standard-size graphics card will need a different form factor.

Questions about this item

What display cable do I need to connect a monitor to the DisplayPort on this 3040 Micro?

A standard DisplayPort cable plugs directly into the rear port and carries video from the Intel HD Graphics 530 to your monitor.

Will my existing USB 2.0 flash drives work with the front ports on this desktop?

Yes, the front USB 3.0 ports are backward compatible so USB 2.0 drives will function at their usual speed.

How can I verify the i7-6700T is running at its 3.60 GHz turbo frequency under load?

Open Task Manager, select the Performance tab, watch the CPU clock speed rise toward 3.60 GHz while running a demanding task.
