Dell Pro Micro QCM1250 MFF Desktop PC

This micro form factor desktop delivers a 24-core Intel Core Ultra 9 285 processor with an integrated 13 TOPS NPU. It ships with 16GB DDR5 5600 MHz memory and an 8TB PCIe NVMe solid-state drive. Windows 11 Pro is pre-installed and the unit includes a wired keyboard and mouse.

Suits offices needing AI-ready performance

The compact chassis fits tight workspaces while providing Gigabit Ethernet, Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth connectivity. DisplayPort 1.4a and HDMI 2.1 ports drive two external displays. Buyers who require discrete graphics, additional internal drive bays or user-upgradeable memory should consider other form factors.

24-core Intel Core Ultra 9 285 with 13 TOPS NPU

The processor combines 24 cores, 36MB smart cache and turbo up to 5.60 GHz with a dedicated neural processing unit. This architecture handles local AI workloads such as Copilot features without a separate accelerator. If the workflow demands GPU compute or higher core counts, this CPU will not meet those requirements.

Questions about this item

What real-world speed does the USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 port on this Micro QCM1250 reach?

The front USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 port runs at 10 Gbps, capping external SSD transfers at that ceiling.

What clearance does the 1.41 in wide Micro QCM1250 chassis need for the VESA mount brackets?

The chassis is 1.41 in wide, 7.01 in deep and 7.17 in high; allow at least 2 in extra depth for cable bend radius behind the mount.

Which BIOS step activates the SmartPower On feature on the rear USB 3.2 Gen 1 port of this QCM1250?

Enter BIOS, navigate to Power Management, enable "USB Wake Support" for the SmartPower On port, save and exit — the port will then power-on the PC from off state.
