Business desktop for office workloads

The Dell OptiPlex 3040 SFF is a compact business desktop built around an Intel Core i7-6700 processor running at 3.4 GHz. It ships with 8 GB of DDR4 memory and a 256 GB SSD, with Windows 10 Pro pre-installed. The small-form-factor chassis fits on or under a desk without a monitor included.

Suited for general productivity

This system handles document editing, web browsing, email and standard business applications. Buyers who need more memory headroom for large datasets or virtual machines should consider a different configuration. The integrated Intel HD Graphics does not support demanding 3D rendering or modern gaming workloads.

256 GB SSD capacity decides fit

The single 256 GB solid-state drive determines how much local data the machine can hold at speed. If the intended workload requires a larger on-disk footprint for databases, media caches or multiple VM images, the available space will be a limiting factor.

Questions about this item

How loud does the OptiPlex 3040 fan get when the i7-6700 runs at 3.40 GHz all day?

The small-form-factor chassis uses a single temperature-controlled fan; under sustained load it spins up to an audible but office-tolerable level.

Which display cable do I need to connect a monitor to the integrated Intel HD Graphics?

The rear panel provides DisplayPort and VGA outputs, so a standard DisplayPort or VGA cable will carry video to your screen.

Can I keep using my existing DDR4 memory modules alongside the installed 8 GB?

The board accepts DDR4 DIMMs only; any added sticks must be DDR4 to fit and function correctly.
