EliteDesk 800 G4 SFF business desktop

The HP EliteDesk 800 G4 SFF is a compact business desktop built around an Intel Core i5-8500 processor with six cores running at 3.00GHz base and 4.10GHz turbo. It ships with 16GB of DDR4 memory and a 256GB NVMe solid-state drive. A discrete AMD Radeon R5 340X graphics card with 2GB of GDDR5 memory handles visual output. Windows 11 Pro comes pre-installed, and a USB keyboard and mouse are included.

LGA 1151 platform and SFF constraints

The system uses the LGA 1151 socket, which limits future processor upgrades to 8th and 9th Generation Intel Core chips. The small-form-factor chassis restricts expansion card length and power delivery, so only low-profile graphics cards or add-in cards will fit. The included Radeon R5 340X connects via a standard PCIe slot but cannot be replaced with a full-height model. Wireless connectivity is provided by an add-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth adapter.

Upgrade from older office towers

This desktop replaces aging tower PCs that rely on spinning hard drives and integrated graphics, delivering faster boot times and smoother multi-monitor support. The jump is worthwhile for offices moving to Windows 11 Pro on hardware that meets the OS requirements natively. It is not suited for buyers who need more internal storage bays, a second discrete graphics card, or a processor platform beyond the LGA 1151 generation.
