Compact SFF desktop for everyday tasks

The Dell OptiPlex 990 SFF packs an Intel quad-core i5 at 2.9-3.30GHz with 16GB DDR3 and a 1TB SSD into a small form factor case. Windows 10 Pro is pre-installed alongside a DVD±RW drive and a WiFi USB adapter. A keyboard and mouse are included so you can start working immediately.

Ideal for office work not for heavy graphics

This system suits students and home offices that need reliable document, web and email performance. Integrated Intel HD Graphics 2000 cannot handle modern gaming or intensive 3D rendering. Buyers who want more graphics power or a larger tower with extra drive bays should look at something else.

16GB DDR3 memory capacity fixed

The board ships with 16GB of DDR3 desktop RAM in a 240-pin DIMM form factor. No other DDR generation fits this platform. If your workflow demands more memory than 16GB you will need a different system.

Questions about this item

What display cable do I need to connect a monitor to the Intel HD Graphics 2000 on this OptiPlex 990 SFF?

The small form factor case uses low-profile brackets, so you need a monitor with VGA or DisplayPort input and the matching cable; HDMI is not native on this graphics output.

Will my existing DDR3 240-pin memory modules work alongside the installed 16 GB in this desktop?

Yes, the board accepts DDR3 240-pin DIMMs; the 16 GB already fitted fills two slots, leaving two free for additional matched modules up to the chipset limit.

How can I confirm the 1 TB SSD is recognised at full capacity after first boot?

Open File Explorer or Disk Management in Windows 10 Pro — the drive should show roughly 1000 GB with the OS partition and remaining space ready for use.
