Dell OptiPlex 7040 SFF Business Desktop

The Dell OptiPlex 7040 SFF is a small form factor desktop built for business environments. It runs a quad-core Intel Core i7 6700 processor at 3.4 GHz with 8 MB L3 cache. The system includes 16 GB DDR4 memory and a 1 TB SSD. Integrated Intel HD 530 graphics drive two DisplayPort and one HDMI output.

Suited for office productivity

This desktop fits users who need a compact, quiet machine for general office applications, web browsing and multi-monitor setups using modern digital connections. Buyers who require VGA or DVI monitor inputs without adapters, an internal optical drive, discrete graphics performance or a newer Windows version should look at other configurations.

1 TB SSD capacity with 16 GB DDR4 headroom

The solid-state drive provides fast boot and application loading for a typical business software suite and local file storage. The 16 GB DDR4 memory handles simultaneous office apps and browser tabs comfortably. Demanding workloads such as video editing, 3D rendering or large database operations will exceed the integrated graphics and quad-core processing limits.
