Dell QCS1250 SFF Desktop PC

The Dell QCS1250 is a small form factor desktop built for business and education users who need a compact, ready-to-use system. It ships new with Windows 11 Pro, a wired keyboard and mouse, and fits easily on a crowded desk. The Intel Core Ultra 5 235 processor delivers 14 cores and a 5.0 GHz turbo boost for responsive everyday performance. Integrated Intel UHD Graphics 770 drives two displays via HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort 1.4a.

Suits office and classroom deployments

This PC suits offices and classrooms that want a quiet, space-saving tower with a modern CPU and fast NVMe storage. Buyers who need discrete graphics for 3D work, video editing or gaming should look elsewhere. The 256 GB drive fills quickly with large media libraries or local databases. Only four USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports are available, so users with many high-speed peripherals may need a hub.

14-core Intel Core Ultra 5 235 decides fit

The 14-core Intel Core Ultra 5 235 with 24 MB cache and 5.0 GHz maximum turbo frequency is the specification that determines whether this system matches the workload. Its integrated NPU rated at 13 TOPS accelerates on-device AI tasks such as background blur and noise suppression. Sixteen gigabytes of DDR5 5600 MHz memory and a 256 GB PCIe NVMe M.2 SSD complete the core platform.

Questions about this item

How does the 5.0 GHz turbo speed behave under everyday workloads?

The Intel Core Ultra 5 235 reaches 5.0 GHz on single threads for brief bursts; sustained all-core speeds will be lower depending on the cooling headroom inside the 3.74-inch wide SFF chassis.

What display resolutions can the HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort 1.4a outputs drive?

Both video ports are wired to the integrated Intel UHD Graphics 770; they support common 4K and 1440p monitors at standard refresh rates without requiring a discrete graphics card.

Will a full-height add-in card fit inside the 95 mm wide case?

The Small Form Factor layout uses low-profile slots only, so standard full-height cards will not fit; choose low-profile or riser-mounted alternatives for expansion.
