Ready-to-use SFF desktop

The Dell OptiPlex 990 Small Form Factor desktop arrives with Windows 10 Pro 64-bit installed and includes a USB keyboard and mouse. An Intel Core i7-2600 quad-core processor running at 3.40 GHz with 3.80 GHz turbo boost drives the system. 16 GB of DDR3 memory and a 128 GB 2.5-inch SSD provide responsive multitasking and fast boot times.

Home office and light productivity

This configuration suits students, home-office workers and anyone needing a compact PC for web browsing, document editing and video playback. Integrated Intel HD Graphics 2000 handles basic display output but cannot run modern games or GPU-accelerated creative workloads. Buyers who need discrete graphics performance, additional internal drive bays or more than 16 GB of memory should consider a larger form-factor workstation.

Compact build foundation

The SFF chassis fits tight desk spaces and uses a 240-pin DDR3 memory layout with a 2.5-inch drive bay already populated by the SSD. A DVD±RW drive handles optical media, while Gigabit Ethernet and a USB Wi-Fi adapter cover wired and wireless networking. Integrated audio and USB peripherals complete the package, leaving PCIe slots available if a low-profile graphics card or expansion card is added later.

Questions about this item

Does the OptiPlex 990 SFF need a separate monitor, or is one built into the case?

The small-form-factor chassis has no integrated display; you must connect an external monitor via the onboard Intel HD Graphics 2000 outputs.

Will the included USB WiFi adapter work at the same time as the wired Gigabit Ethernet port on the motherboard?

Yes, the USB wireless adapter and the integrated Gigabit Ethernet can operate simultaneously, giving you both wireless and wired network connections.

After first boot, how can I confirm the 16 GB DDR3 memory and 128 GB SSD are recognised by Windows 10 Pro?

Open Task Manager (Ctrl+Shift+Esc), select the Performance tab, and verify 16 GB appears under Memory and 128 GB under Disk 0.
