Precision 3430 SFF desktop with i7-8700

The Dell Precision 3430 is a small-form-factor desktop PC built around a 6-core Intel Core i7-8700 processor running at 3.20 GHz with a 4.60 GHz turbo. It ships with 8 GB of DDR4 memory and a 512 GB SSD, plus Windows 11 Pro pre-installed. Integrated Intel UHD Graphics 630 drives displays up to 4096 x 2304 resolution via DisplayPort.

Office and home users needing a compact workstation

This system suits professionals handling everyday office applications, web browsing, streaming and remote-work tasks in a space-saving chassis. Buyers who require a discrete graphics card for 3D rendering, video editing or gaming should look elsewhere, as the platform relies solely on integrated graphics. The SFF case also limits internal expansion compared with full-size towers.

8 GB DDR4 memory — single spec that decides fit

The 8 GB of DDR4 RAM determines whether the machine meets your workload immediately or needs an upgrade. The board supports up to 64 GB, so memory can be increased later, but the as-shipped capacity is the deciding factor for out-of-the-box suitability.

Questions about this item

Will the i7-8700 with 6 cores and 12 threads bottleneck my existing DDR4 memory if I add more sticks?

The system supports up to 64GB of DDR4, so your existing DDR4 modules will work without bottlenecking the 6-core 12-thread processor.

How can I verify the Intel UHD Graphics 630 is driving my monitor at 4096 x 2304 after setup?

Open Windows Display Settings and confirm the resolution reads 4096 x 2304 on the DisplayPort output; the Intel Graphics Command Center will also show the active resolution and driver version.

Does the box include a DisplayPort cable and Wi-Fi antenna, or must I buy them separately?

The package contains the SFF desktop, a wireless keyboard and mouse with their USB receiver, and a power cord; a DisplayPort cable and any external Wi-Fi antenna are not included.
