Dell OptiPlex 9800 SFF desktop
The Dell OptiPlex 9800 SFF is a small-form-factor desktop PC built for everyday office tasks. It ships with Windows 11 Home and an Intel Core i5-6500 dual-core processor running at 3.2 GHz. The system includes 16 GB of RAM and a 256 GB solid-state drive. Integrated Intel HD Graphics handles display output through the available DisplayPorts.
Integrated Intel HD Graphics limits
Graphics performance is provided by the processor’s integrated Intel HD Graphics engine. This solution shares system memory and is suited for general productivity, video playback and multi-monitor setups using the DisplayPort outputs. It is not designed for 3D rendering, modern gaming workloads or GPU-accelerated compute tasks. Buyers who need discrete graphics performance should look elsewhere.
16 GB RAM and 256 GB SSD headroom
The 16 GB of installed memory handles typical multitasking and office applications comfortably. The board offers two slots and supports a maximum of 32 GB if more headroom is required later. The 256 GB SSD provides fast boot and application loading, though users with large local media libraries or extensive project files will find the capacity restrictive. A USB Wi-Fi adapter is included for wireless connectivity.
