Compact desktop for everyday work

The OptiPlex 9800 small-form-factor desktop pairs a 3.2 GHz dual-core Intel Core i5-6500 with 16 GB of memory and a 512 GB SSD. Windows 11 Pro is pre-installed, making the system ready for office applications, web browsing and light multitasking straight out of the box. A 22-inch LCD and a USB Wi-Fi adapter are included so a complete workstation can be set up on any desk without extra purchases.

Integrated graphics and expansion headroom

Intel HD Graphics handles display output through the onboard DisplayPorts, leaving the low-profile expansion slot free for a dedicated card if heavier visual workloads appear later. Two memory slots are populated to reach the 16 GB shipped; the board supports up to 32 GB total when both slots are filled. The 512 GB SSD provides the primary storage volume and additional drives can be added using the internal bays.

Cool and quiet in normal use

The small chassis draws modest power from the dual-core processor and integrated graphics, so the internal fan runs at low speed during typical productivity tasks. Heat output stays low enough that the system remains unobtrusive on a desk or in a shared office. Power consumption scales with workload but stays well within the limits of the supplied power supply for the configured hardware.

Questions about this item

Will the dual-core i5-6500 at 3.2 GHz throttle during long workloads?

The 9800 SFF uses a 65 W desktop-class chip with active cooling, so the 3.2 GHz base clock is maintained under continuous load.

How loud and hot does the small-form-factor chassis get when running all day?

The compact case relies on a single system fan; expect moderate fan noise and warm exhaust air but no extreme surface temperatures during typical office tasks.

What display cable do I need to connect the included 22" monitor?

The 9800 SFF provides DisplayPort outputs, so a DisplayPort-to-DisplayPort or DisplayPort-to-HDMI cable will link the monitor.
