OptiPlex 9800 SFF desktop

This compact Dell OptiPlex 9800 small-form-factor desktop ships with Windows 11 Home and an Intel Core i5-6500 dual-core processor running at 3.2 GHz. It targets office workers and students who need a ready-to-use system for everyday productivity, web browsing and video conferencing. The integrated Intel HD Graphics drives the included 22-inch LCD without a separate graphics card.

Build fit and expansion

The chassis provides two memory slots with 16 GB installed and supports up to 32 GB total, allowing a straightforward RAM upgrade later. A 256 GB SSD handles the operating system and applications, while the small footprint frees desk space for the monitor and peripherals. USB Wi-Fi adapter and DisplayPort outputs are built in for wireless networking and external displays.

Capacity and headroom

Sixteen gigabytes of memory and a 256 GB solid-state drive give ample headroom for multitasking with office suites, browser tabs and light creative tools. Heavy workloads such as large video projects, modern gaming or virtualisation will exhaust both the dual-core CPU and the integrated graphics before storage becomes the bottleneck. Users needing more cores, discrete graphics or greater storage should consider a larger workstation.

Questions about this item

What limits the i5-6500 during long workloads?

The dual-core 3.2 GHz processor reaches its thermal ceiling first, so sustained multi-threaded tasks throttle to stay within the 65 W design power.

How loud and hot does the SFF chassis get after hours of use?

The small-form-factor case uses a single low-profile fan; under continuous load the CPU runs warm and the fan spins audibly, but the integrated Intel HD Graphics adds no extra heat.

Which display cable do I need to connect the included 22-inch monitor?

The desktop provides DisplayPort outputs, so a DisplayPort-to-DisplayPort or DisplayPort-to-HDMI cable is required — neither is supplied in the box.
