Dell OptiPlex 7040 SFF business desktop

The Dell OptiPlex 7040 is a small form factor desktop built for office and home productivity. It uses a 64-bit quad-core Intel i7 6700 processor running at 3.4 GHz with 8 MB of L3 cache. Integrated Intel HD 530 graphics drive two DisplayPort outputs and one HDMI port. The system ships with a fresh Windows 10 Pro installation and genuine COA sticker.

16 GB DDR4 memory and 1 TB NVMe storage

Sixteen gigabytes of DDR4 RAM provide headroom for typical business multitasking and moderate workloads. The 1 TB NVMe PCIe M.2 SSD delivers fast boot times and quick data access for applications and files. Memory and storage capacities suit general office use; heavier virtualisation or large media libraries may require expansion beyond the installed amounts.

DisplayPort and HDMI video interfaces

Video output relies on two DisplayPort connectors and a single HDMI port; no VGA or DVI ports are present. Adapters or suitable cables are necessary to connect legacy monitors that only accept analogue or older digital inputs. Gigabit Ethernet provides wired network connectivity at 10/100/1000 Mbps. Six USB 3.0 and four USB 2.0 ports handle peripheral connections.

Questions about this item

Will my existing DDR4 memory modules work alongside the 16 GB already installed?

The system uses DDR4 memory; any additional modules must match the DDR4 type and the motherboard's supported speed to function correctly.

How can I confirm the Intel HD 530 graphics and NVMe SSD are active after first boot?

Open Device Manager — the display adapter should list Intel HD 530 and the disk drive should show the 1 TB NVMe PCIe M.2 SSD.

What cables and peripherals come in the box, and what must I provide?

The box includes the desktop and a power cord; you must supply a monitor (via DisplayPort or HDMI), keyboard, mouse and any DisplayPort-to-VGA/DVI adapters for older screens.
