All-in-One Desktop with 22" FHD Monitor

The Dell OptiPlex 5040 All-in-One combines a 22-inch Full HD display with a compact small-form-factor chassis. It is powered by a 6th Generation Intel Core i5-6500 quad-core processor running at 3.20 GHz with 65 W TDP. The system includes 8 GB of DDR3L UDIMM memory and dual storage comprising a 128 GB M.2 SSD plus a 1 TB hard drive. Windows 10 Pro is pre-installed along with a USB keyboard, USB mouse and a 5 GHz capable wireless USB dongle.

Suited for Office Tasks, Not for Demanding Graphics

This configuration suits general business users, call-centre operators and education environments that need a tidy, ready-to-run workstation for document editing, web apps and video conferencing. The integrated Intel HD Graphics and 65 W processor limit 3D rendering, modern gaming and heavy creative workloads such as video encoding or CAD. Buyers who need discrete graphics performance, higher core counts or expandable PCIe slots should consider a tower workstation instead.

Dual-Drive Storage with 8 GB Memory Headroom

The 128 GB M.2 drive holds the operating system and core applications for fast boot and launch times, while the 1 TB hard drive provides ample space for large files, archives and local backups. The 8 GB DDR3L memory handles typical multitasking with several browser tabs and office programs, though memory-intensive tasks like virtual machines or large datasets will exceed the installed capacity. The platform supports up to 32 GB of DDR4 memory via its two UDIMM slots for future upgrades.

Questions about this item

Do I need to supply my own DDR3L memory modules to use this all-in-one?

The system already includes 8 GB of DDR3L UDIMM installed, so no additional memory is required for it to operate.

Will the Intel HD Graphics driven by the i5-6500 processor support a second display through the HDMI port?

Yes, the chassis natively supports three digital video outputs including HDMI, allowing an external monitor to be connected alongside the built-in 22-inch screen.

How can I confirm the 128 GB M.2 drive is recognised as the boot device after first power-on?

Open Windows Disk Management and verify that the 128 GB partition is marked as the system and boot volume with Windows 10 Pro installed.
