OptiPlex 3060 for everyday office work
The Dell OptiPlex 3060 desktop is built around an Intel Core i5-8500 processor with six cores and 16 GB of DDR3 memory. It ships with Windows 11 Pro installed and includes a wired keyboard and mouse plus a Wi-Fi and Bluetooth adapter. This configuration targets home-office users, students and small-business desks that need a ready-to-use system for browsing, email, video calls and document editing.
500 GB SSD and 32 GB memory ceiling
A single 500 GB SATA SSD provides the boot drive and primary storage, delivering quick start-up and application load times for typical workloads. The board offers two memory slots populated with one 16 GB DDR3 module, leaving one slot free and a maximum supported capacity of 32 GB. Users with large media libraries or multiple virtual machines will find the 500 GB limit restrictive and the DDR3 platform prevents faster memory upgrades.
Bundled peripherals and wireless adapter
The package adds a new wired gaming-style keyboard and mouse so the system is usable straight from the box. A 5G Wi-Fi and Bluetooth adapter is also included, enabling cable-free network and peripheral connections without occupying internal expansion slots. No additional software suites or recovery media are mentioned in the supplied data.

Questions about this item
Will the Intel Core i5-8500 work with my existing LGA 1151 motherboard if I keep it?
The processor uses the LGA 1151 socket, so it fits motherboards with that socket. The chipset must also support 8th Generation Intel Core CPUs for the system to boot.
How can I confirm the 16 GB DDR3 memory is running correctly after setup?
Open Task Manager, go to the Performance tab, select Memory, and verify the total shows 16 GB and the type lists DDR3.
The listing mentions a keyboard and mouse — are they included, and will I need a separate Wi-Fi adapter?
A wired gaming keyboard and USB mouse are included. A 5G Wi-Fi and Bluetooth adapter is also included, so no separate wireless adapter is required.
