Micro Tower business desktop

The Dell OptiPlex 3050 Micro Tower is a compact desktop designed for office environments where space is limited. It ships as a complete system with Windows 10 Pro pre-installed, a wired keyboard and a wired mouse. The small chassis allows flexible mounting to suit different workspace layouts.

8 GB DDR4 and 500 GB SATA drive

The system includes 8 GB of DDR4 memory, which matches the maximum memory supported by the platform. The 500 GB 7200 RPM SATA hard drive provides storage for documents and applications, while the dual-core Intel Core i3-7100T processor at 3.4 GHz handles everyday productivity tasks. Integrated Intel HD Graphics drives up to two displays without a discrete card.

Maximum memory capped at 8 GB

The platform supports a maximum of 8 GB of RAM, so the installed capacity cannot be expanded. Buyers who need more memory headroom for heavier multitasking or virtualisation should consider a different system. The fixed limit makes this desktop suitable only for workloads that stay within that boundary.

Questions about this item

Will the 7.2 x 1.4 x 7 inch Micro Tower fit on the same desk shelf as my older 3050 small-form-factor unit?

The 3050 Micro Tower measures 7.2 inches high, 1.4 inches wide and 7 inches deep, so it occupies far less horizontal space than a traditional small-form-factor chassis and should sit comfortably on a standard shelf.

How can I confirm the integrated Intel HD Graphics is driving both monitors at 3.4 GHz after I connect them?

Open Windows Display Settings — both screens will appear as active displays — and check Task Manager’s Performance tab to see the i3-7100T running at its 3.40 GHz base clock while the Intel HD GPU handles the output.

Does the box include a 500 GB 7200 RPM SATA drive and 8 GB DDR4 memory, or must I buy those separately?

The system ships with the 500 GB 7200 RPM SATA hard drive and 8 GB DDR4 already installed, plus a wired keyboard and mouse; no additional storage or memory purchase is required for basic operation.
