Compact desktop bundle for everyday work

The Dell OptiPlex 3060 Mini PC pairs an Intel Core i5-8500T processor with 16 GB of DDR3 memory and a 500 GB SATA SSD. Windows 11 Pro is pre-installed alongside a 24-inch LCD monitor, a wired keyboard and a wired mouse. The small-form-factor chassis fits on a cluttered desk and targets office staff, students or home users who need a complete, ready-to-use system.

Straightforward setup with limited upgrade room

The mini PC ships fully assembled; connect the monitor, keyboard and mouse, then power on. Two memory slots exist but only one is populated, so adding a second DDR3 module is possible up to the 32 GB ceiling. The single 2.5-inch drive bay is already occupied by the SSD, so extra internal storage requires an external USB drive. Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are provided by an included 5G adapter that plugs into a USB port.

Check your peripherals and network before ordering

The system offers standard USB ports for the supplied keyboard and mouse, plus video output for the bundled 24-inch screen. Verify that your existing displays use a compatible input if you plan to swap the monitor. The 5G USB adapter handles wireless and Bluetooth connectivity; ensure your router supports the same bands. No additional cables or power bricks are included beyond what ships in the box.
