Compact workstation for tight spaces

The Dell Precision 3240 Compact is a 2.3L mini PC built for professionals who need workstation-class reliability in confined areas. An 8-core Intel i7 10700 running at 2.9 GHz with 16 MB L3 cache delivers 16 threads for multi-tasking workloads. Windows 11 Pro and 16 GB DDR4 memory come pre-installed. ISV certification and advanced security features support managed business environments.

Upgrade path via PCIe riser

Integrated Intel UHD 630 graphics handle everyday office output across two DisplayPort 1.4 connections. The versatile PCIe riser design accepts an optional low-profile GPU when 3D or compute tasks outgrow the integrated engine. Gigabit Ethernet provides wired networking; Wi-Fi is not included and must be added separately. Three USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports, two USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-C ports and one USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C port cover current peripherals.

Storage and memory headroom

A 1 TB NVMe M.2 SSD gives fast boot and application load times with room for active project files. The 16 GB DDR4 configuration suits typical business multitasking; heavier datasets or virtual machines will require a memory upgrade. Air cooling in the compact chassis manages the stock processor; sustained all-core loads or an added GPU will push thermal limits. No monitor, keyboard, mouse or speakers are supplied.

Questions about this item

What are the dimensions of the 2.3L chassis so I can check if it fits my desk space?

The Precision 3240 Compact uses a 2.3L Mini PC chassis designed for tight workspaces. Measure your available area against this small form factor before ordering.

How do I add a low-profile GPU using the PCIe riser, and which step is often missed?

Install the optional riser card into the motherboard slot, mount the low-profile GPU onto the riser, then secure the bracket. The step often missed is connecting the GPU power cable if the card requires auxiliary power.

Can I upgrade the 16GB DDR4 memory later, and what type do I buy?

Yes, the system uses standard DDR4 SO-DIMM modules. Match the existing speed and buy DDR4 SO-DIMMs to expand or replace the current 16GB configuration.
