Ready for office and study

This Dell OptiPlex 990 Mini Tower is a desktop computer built for student and home-office use. It ships with Windows 10 Pro 64-bit pre-installed and includes a USB keyboard and mouse. The black-and-silver chassis houses a 265W power supply and integrated Gigabit Ethernet for wired networking.

Processor and memory fit

The system runs on an Intel 2nd Gen i7-2600 quad-core processor operating at 3.40 GHz with a 3.90 GHz turbo frequency. It is paired with 8 GB of DDR3 desktop memory in a 240-pin DIMM form factor. Integrated Intel HD Graphics 2000 handles display output without a discrete card.

Sustained operation within a compact tower

The 2.5-inch 512 GB SSD provides solid-state storage for the operating system and files while generating less heat than a mechanical drive. A 16X DVD±RW drive is available for optical media. The 265W power supply and integrated graphics keep thermal output modest during extended work sessions.
