HP EliteDesk 800 G4 SFF i5-8500 8GB 512GB NVMe desktop PC

Small-form business desktop

The HP EliteDesk 800 G4 SFF is a compact desktop computer built for office environments. It ships with Windows 11 Pro pre-installed and uses an Intel Core i5 8500 six-core processor running at 3.00 GHz with 9 MB L3 cache. The system includes 8GB of DDR4 memory and a 512GB NVMe PCIe M.2 solid-state drive. Intel UHD Graphics 630 handles video output through two DisplayPort connectors.

Upgrade from older SFF workstations

This unit replaces ageing small-form-factor desktops that rely on hard-disk drives or earlier processor generations. The jump is worthwhile when faster boot times, quicker application launches and native NVMe storage are required for daily business workloads. The 10 Gb/s USB 3.1 Gen 2 Type-C port and four Type-A ports at the same speed improve peripheral throughput compared with 5 Gb/s USB 3.1 Gen 1 or 480 Mb/s USB 2.0-only designs. Gigabit Ethernet ensures reliable wired network connectivity.

Straightforward SFF deployment

Installation consists of connecting power, a display via DisplayPort and any USB peripherals; Windows 11 Pro is already configured. The small chassis limits internal expansion, so adding full-height cards or additional 3.5-inch drives is not practical. Buyers who need discrete graphics, multiple internal storage bays or Wi-Fi connectivity should consider a larger form factor. The included power cord is the only accessory supplied; monitor, keyboard and mouse must be sourced separately.
