HP EliteDesk 800 G6 i5-10500 8 GB 128 GB SSD Windows 11 Pro Mini Black

Compact business desktop

The HP EliteDesk 800 G6 Mini packs a 10th Generation Intel Core i5-10500 processor with six cores running at 3.1 GHz base and up to 4.5 GHz turbo. It ships with 8 GB of DDR4-2666 memory, a 128 GB PCIe NVMe TLC M.2 SSD, Intel HD Graphics 630 and Windows 11 Pro pre-installed. A 65 W external power adapter and Intel Wi-Fi 6 AX201 with Bluetooth complete the package for home-office or student use.

Stepping up from older small-form-factor PCs

Replacing a system limited to four cores or mechanical storage gives a noticeable lift in multi-task responsiveness and boot speed thanks to the six-core CPU and NVMe SSD. The jump is worth it when daily workloads involve multiple browser tabs, Office apps and video calls that saturate older dual-core or quad-core configurations.

Suits space-constrained offices and remote workers

Buyers needing a quiet, VESA-mountable mini PC for general productivity, web apps and streaming will find the footprint and wireless connectivity a good fit. Those requiring discrete graphics, larger local storage, user-upgradeable memory slots or additional video outputs should look at a larger chassis instead.
