DELL OptiPlex 9800 SFF Desktop PC i5-6500 3.2GHz 16GB 256GB SSD 24" LCD Win 11 Pro

Dell OptiPlex 9800 SFF for everyday office work

This compact desktop ships with Windows 11 Pro, a dual-core Intel Core i5-6500 processor running at 3.2 GHz, 16 GB of memory and a 256 GB SSD. It includes a 24-inch LCD and a USB Wi-Fi adapter for wireless connectivity. Integrated Intel HD Graphics handles standard business applications and video playback. The small-form-factor chassis suits space-constrained desks and basic productivity setups.

SFF layout limits internal expansion

The small-form-factor design restricts the number of add-in cards and storage devices that can be installed. Only low-profile expansion cards will fit, and the two memory slots are already populated to reach the 16 GB configuration. The integrated graphics output uses DisplayPort connections, so monitors without DisplayPort inputs require an adapter. Maximum supported memory is 32 GB across the two slots.

Dual-core i5-6500 sets the performance ceiling

The Intel Core i5-6500 provides two cores at 3.2 GHz, which determines how well the system handles multitasking and heavier workloads. Buyers who need more cores for virtualisation, content creation or modern gaming should consider a different platform. The 256 GB SSD capacity may also require supplemental storage for large media libraries or project files.
