The most affordable configuration in the Pro Slim Essential i3 line, with single-channel memory for cost-conscious basic office deployments. The Dell Pro Slim Essential (QVS1260) is a small-form-factor business desktop built for office and hybrid-work desks where space is at a premium. This configuration pairs a Intel Core i3-14100 (12MB cache, 4 cores, 8 threads, up to 4.7GHz) with 8GB of DDR5 memory (1x8GB, 4800MT/s) and a 512GB M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD, giving snappy day-to-day performance for productivity apps, browser-heavy workloads, and video calls without the bulk of a full tower. Graphics run off the processor's own Intel UHD Graphics 730 -- there's no discrete GPU, which is expected and appropriate for this class of machine. It comes complete with a Dell wired keyboard (KB216) and Dell optical mouse (MS116), and connects wirelessly via a MediaTek Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax, 2x2, MU-MIMO) and Bluetooth card as well as Gigabit Ethernet for a wired desk connection. Windows 11 Pro is preinstalled, and the unit is backed by Dell's 3 Year Pro Support warranty, making it a low-friction, ready-to-deploy choice for IT fleets standardising on a compact SFF chassis.
