Compact Business Desktop
The HP ProDesk 600 G3 is a Small Form Factor desktop built for everyday office and home productivity. It ships new with Windows 11 Pro, an Intel Core i5-6500 processor, 8GB DDR4 memory and a 512GB SSD. Integrated Intel HD Graphics 530 drives displays up to 4096x2304 resolution. A wireless keyboard, mouse and Wi-Fi are included.
Suits Standard Office Workflows
This system suits users who need a quiet, space-saving PC for document editing, web browsing and video calls. Buyers who want more storage or memory than the factory 512GB SSD and 8GB DDR4 should look elsewhere. It is not intended for workloads that require a discrete graphics card or more than four processing threads.
Steady Thermal Behaviour
The i5-6500 runs at a 3.20 GHz base clock and can reach 3.60 GHz under turbo for short periods. In the compact chassis, sustained loads will settle near the base frequency as thermal limits manage heat. This keeps performance consistent for long business hours without sudden throttling drops.

Questions about this item
Do I need to buy a monitor with DisplayPort to use the Intel HD Graphics 530 at 4096x2304?
The Intel HD Graphics 530 supports up to 4096x2304 via DisplayPort, so a monitor with that input is required for the maximum resolution.
Will my existing USB 2.0 peripherals work with the USB-A 2.0 ports on this ProDesk 600 G3?
Yes, the USB-A 2.0 ports are backward compatible with USB 2.0 devices such as keyboards, mice and printers.
How can I verify the i5-6500 is reaching its 3.60 GHz turbo frequency under load?
Open Task Manager’s Performance tab or a tool like HWMonitor while running a demanding task to confirm the CPU hits 3.60 GHz.
