DELL OptiPlex 3090 Micro Desktop i5-10500T 16GB

This new tiny desktop runs a six-core Intel Core i5-10500T processor at 2.3 GHz with a 3.8 GHz turbo boost. It includes 16 GB DDR4 memory and a 2 TB hard drive. Windows 10 Pro is installed and a keyboard plus mouse are supplied. The micro form factor fits tight workspaces.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

Business users needing a compact, managed PC for office applications and legacy serial or PS/2 peripherals will benefit from the optional port and K-lock slot. Buyers who want wireless connectivity must add a separate card because no Wi-Fi or Bluetooth is included. Systems requiring solid-state boot speeds or discrete graphics are not addressed by this configuration.

Storage type and capacity

The sole internal drive is a 2 TB 3.5-inch hard disk with no solid-state storage present. This delivers high capacity for large local file archives but offers slower application loading than SSD-equipped alternatives. If fast boot and launch times are a priority, this drive specification is the limiting factor.

Questions about this item

Does the Core i5-10500T with its 3.8 GHz turbo clock throttle under sustained multi-core load?

The 10th Gen six-core processor runs at a 2.3 GHz base and 3.8 GHz turbo; sustained performance depends on the tiny 1.42" wide chassis airflow and workload.

How loud and hot does the 1.42" wide micro chassis get when running all day?

The compact 36 mm × 178.56 mm × 182 mm form factor uses integrated graphics and a 2TB HDD; fan noise and surface temperature rise with continuous load.

Which display cable do I need since the box only lists two DisplayPort outputs?

Two DisplayPorts are built in; optional VGA, HDMI 2.0 or a second DP 1.4 can be added via the knock-out slot, so bring a DisplayPort cable or the matching adapter.
