Dell OptiPlex 990 SFF Desktop

The Dell OptiPlex 990 is a small form factor desktop computer built around a 2nd generation Intel Core i7-2600 quad-core processor running at 3.40 GHz with turbo boost up to 3.80 GHz. It comes with 8 GB of DDR3 memory and a 128 GB 2.5-inch solid state drive. Windows 10 Pro 64-bit is pre-installed, and a USB keyboard and mouse are included in the box.

Check SFF space and DDR3 memory

Verify that your workspace can accommodate a small form factor chassis, as internal expansion slots and drive bays are limited compared to a full tower. The system uses 240-pin DDR3 desktop memory, so any future upgrades must match that specification. Integrated Intel HD Graphics 2000 handles video output, and a USB WiFi adapter provides wireless connectivity alongside the Gigabit Ethernet port.

Suits office work, not modern gaming

This desktop suits students, home offices and general business tasks such as document editing, web browsing and video playback. Buyers who need discrete graphics performance for current games, content creation or GPU-accelerated workloads should look at a system with a dedicated graphics card. The 128 GB SSD offers fast boot times but limited capacity for large media libraries.

Questions about this item

Does the OptiPlex 990 SFF come with a keyboard, mouse and power cord, or must they be purchased separately?

The package includes a USB keyboard, a USB mouse and one power cord, so no extra accessories are required for basic operation.

Should I choose the 8 GB DDR3 configuration or the 16 GB DDR3 option for the OptiPlex 990 SFF?

The 8 GB DDR3 fitted is sufficient for everyday multitasking; the 16 GB DDR3 maximum is only needed if you run memory-intensive applications.

How does the Intel Core i7-2600 at 3.40 GHz with 3.80 GHz Turbo Boost perform in a real Small Form Factor desktop?

The quad-core processor delivers strong single-thread speed and turbo headroom, making the SFF responsive for office suites, web browsing and light content creation.
