HP EliteDesk 800 G3 SFF desktop PC, i7-6700, 16GB DDR4, 512GB SSD, 22" monitor, Win 11 Pro

Compact desktop with monitor

The HP EliteDesk 800 G3 SFF desktop PC combines an Intel Core i7-6700 processor running at 3.40GHz up to 4.0GHz with 16GB DDR4 memory and a 512GB SSD. A 22in LED monitor, keyboard and mouse are included, and Windows 11 Pro is pre-installed. The small form factor chassis saves desk space while providing DisplayPort and USB 3.0 connectivity. Integrated Intel HD Graphics 530 handles everyday display output.

Who this suits and who it does not

Office workers, students and home users wanting a ready-to-use system for documents, web browsing and video calls will find the specification sufficient. Buyers who need a dedicated graphics card for 3D rendering, modern gaming or multi-monitor 4K workloads should look elsewhere. The slim chassis limits internal expansion, so anyone planning to add full-height add-in cards or multiple storage drives will need a larger tower. Maximum memory supported is 64GB.

Deciding specification

The Intel Core i7-6700 quad-core CPU with 8MB Smart Cache and a 4.0GHz turbo frequency is the single specification that determines whether this desktop meets your performance target. It delivers strong single-thread speed for typical business applications and light multitasking. If your workload demands more cores, higher sustained frequencies or a newer instruction set, this processor will be the limiting factor.
