Ready-to-use desktop bundle

This Dell OptiPlex 3040 Micro PC arrives with a 24-inch LED monitor, wireless keyboard and mouse, and Windows 11 Pro already installed. The compact Mini PC form factor suits home offices, classrooms and front-desk workstations where desk space is limited. Buyers who need a larger tower for expansion cards or multiple drive bays should look elsewhere.

16GB memory and 128GB SSD headroom

The 16GB RAM handles office suites, browser tabs and video calls without swapping, while the 128GB SSD provides fast boot times and room for core applications. Large media libraries, local databases or virtual machines will exceed the available capacity quickly. Users who require more storage or memory headroom cannot upgrade beyond the supplied configuration.

Compact Mini PC with essential connectivity

The 3040 Micro PC includes USB 3.0, USB 2.0, DisplayPort, HDMI, Fast Ethernet RJ-45 and audio ports, plus built-in Wi-Fi for wireless networking. Intel HD Graphics 530 drives the included 24-inch monitor or a second display. The small chassis relies on integrated graphics, so buyers needing discrete GPU performance or additional internal slots will need a different platform.

Questions about this item

Will the OptiPlex 3040 Micro PC drive my existing 24-inch monitor over DisplayPort or HDMI?

Yes, the Intel HD Graphics 530 in the 3040 Micro PC provides both DisplayPort and HDMI outputs, so it can connect directly to your existing 24-inch monitor without an adapter.

How can I verify the Intel Core i5-6500T is reaching its 3.10 GHz turbo frequency under load?

Open Windows Task Manager, select the Performance tab, watch the CPU clock speed while running a demanding task; the reading should climb toward 3.10 GHz when the processor is under heavy load.

Does the box contain the 24-inch LED monitor, wireless keyboard, mouse and Wi-Fi adapter, or must I buy any of them separately?

The package includes the 3040 Micro PC, a 24-inch LED monitor, wireless keyboard and mouse, Wi-Fi adapter and power cables — everything needed for a complete desktop setup.
