Business desktop for office work

The Dell OptiPlex 5060 SFF is a compact business desktop built around an Intel Core i5-8500 hexa-core processor running up to 4.10 GHz. It ships with 16 GB of DDR4 UDIMM memory and a 2.5-inch 256 GB solid-state drive. Windows 10 Pro is pre-installed and a USB keyboard and mouse are included in the box.

Connectivity limited to front and rear ports

The system provides two DisplayPort outputs and a mix of USB 2.0 and USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-A ports plus one USB 3.1 Gen 2 Type-C port. A USB wireless dongle adds 5 GHz Wi-Fi and Bluetooth capability. Graphics rely on the integrated Intel UHD engine so there is no discrete video card slot populated.

Check power and expansion needs

The 65 W processor and small-form-factor chassis restrict internal upgrades to two low-profile PCIe card slots. Verify that your display uses DisplayPort or that you have an active adapter for other inputs. The 256 GB drive may require supplemental storage for large local data sets.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 16 GB DDR4 and 256 GB SSD configuration or look for a 32 GB option?

This unit ships with 16 GB DDR4 UDIMM and a 2.5" 256 GB SSD; the platform supports up to 32 GB DDR4 if you plan to upgrade later.

The i5-8500 is listed at up to 4.10 GHz — what speed will it actually hold under load?

The six-core i5-8500 has a 3.0 GHz base and a 4.1 GHz max turbo; sustained speeds depend on the SFF cooler and workload, typically sitting between those two figures.

Which USB standard does the front USB 3.1 Gen 2 Type-C port use, and what throughput does it cap at?

That port is USB 3.1 Gen 2, so it caps at 10 Gbps; the other blue ports are USB 3.1 Gen 1 at 5 Gbps, and the black ports are USB 2.0.
