Compact business desktop for office tasks

The Dell OptiPlex 3050 in small form factor delivers a 64-bit quad-core i5 6500 at 3.2 GHz with 16GB DDR4 and a 1TB NVMe PCIe M.2 SSD. It ships with Windows 10 Home pre-installed and a genuine COA sticker. Integrated Intel HD 530 graphics drive one DisplayPort and one HDMI output for dual-monitor setups.

Display and legacy connectivity limits

Video output is restricted to DisplayPort and HDMI; no VGA or DVI ports are present so older monitors require an active adapter. The system provides four USB 3.0 and four USB 2.0 ports alongside Gigabit Ethernet for wired networking. A DVD-RW optical drive is included but there are no serial ports or legacy video connections.

1TB NVMe boot drive capacity

The single 1TB NVMe PCIe M.2 SSD determines how much operating system, applications and active data can reside on fast storage. Buyers who need more local capacity or a secondary drive for archiving must add external storage or replace the internal module.
