Compact business desktop for office teams

The Dell QCS1250 SFF is a new small-form-factor PC built around an Intel Core Ultra 9 285 processor with 24 cores and a 5.6 GHz turbo boost. It ships with 16 GB of DDR5 5600 MHz memory, a 1 TB NVMe solid-state drive and Windows 11 Pro. A wired keyboard and mouse are included in the box.

Suits buyers who need AI-ready productivity

The integrated Intel UHD Graphics 770 drives one HDMI 2.1 and one DisplayPort 1.4a output for dual monitors, while Gigabit Ethernet and multiple USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports handle peripherals. Buyers who need discrete graphics performance, more than 16 GB of memory out of the box, or additional internal drive bays should look at other configurations.

24-core Ultra 9 285 with 13 TOPS NPU decides fit

The processor delivers 24 cores, 36 MB cache and a dedicated NPU rated at 13 TOPS for on-device AI workloads. That combination of core count and neural-performance level is the single specification that determines whether this desktop matches the workload.

Questions about this item

Will the 16GB DDR5 5600 MHz memory need upgrading for heavier workloads later?

The system ships with 16GB DDR5 5600 MHz installed; additional modules can be added if the board has free slots.

What thermal limit appears first when the Core Ultra 9 285 runs at 5.6 GHz for long periods?

The 24-core processor can hit 5.6 GHz turbo, but sustained all-core loads will be constrained by the small-form-factor cooler and 3.74 in chassis width.

How loud is the fan and how much heat does the 11.95 in tall case put out during all-day use?

The 11.95 in high SFF enclosure uses a compact fan that spins up under load; expect audible airflow and noticeable warmth from the rear vents.
