Micro business desktop

The Dell OptiPlex 7040 Micro is a compact desktop computer built for business environments. It runs on an Intel Core i5-6500T quad-core processor at 2.5 GHz with 6 MB cache. The system includes 16 GB DDR4 memory and a 256 GB NVMe PCIe M.2 SSD. Windows 10 Pro comes pre-installed for immediate deployment.

Check video outputs and power

This unit provides one DisplayPort and one HDMI port but has no VGA or DVI connectors. Older monitors will require an adapter or a different cable. The integrated Intel HD Graphics 530 drives both outputs. A 65 W power supply is included, so verify the mains lead matches your local socket type before ordering.

Suits office tasks not heavy graphics

The Micro form factor fits tight spaces and supports general productivity, web browsing and multi-monitor office setups. Buyers who need discrete graphics performance, additional internal drive bays or legacy video ports should consider a larger chassis. The compact design limits internal expansion compared to tower models.
