Description
Reliable 10th Gen Performance for Everyday Tasks
The Core i3-10100 is a 4-core, 8-thread Comet Lake processor running at 3.6 GHz base with a 4.3 GHz boost and 6MB Intel Smart Cache, backed by Intel UHD Graphics 630. It handles the full range of office workloads — email, web browsing, document processing, spreadsheets, and video calls — comfortably. The 8GB DDR4-2666 ships in a single DIMM slot, leaving one slot free for a straightforward capacity upgrade. The platform supports up to 64GB maximum across two slots.
Storage, Expansion & Connectivity
Primary storage is a 256GB M.2 PCIe Gen 3 NVMe SSD for fast boot and application loading, supplemented by a DVD-RW optical drive. Two SATA ports allow for the addition of a 3.5″ or 2.5″ HDD/SSD for expanded storage. Expansion slots include one full-height PCIe Gen 3 x16 slot for a discrete graphics card and two full-height PCIe x1 slots for add-in cards. Front I/O provides 2x USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A, 2x USB 2.0 Type-A, and a combo audio jack. The rear adds 2x USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A, 2x USB 2.0 Type-A (supporting Smart Power On), HDMI, VGA, Gigabit Ethernet (RJ-45), and a line-out jack. Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac) and Bluetooth are built in.
⚠️ This machine ships with Windows 10 Pro. Microsoft ended mainstream support for Windows 10 in October 2025. Buyers should plan to upgrade to Windows 11 Pro — the hardware meets all Windows 11 requirements (TPM 2.0, Secure Boot, 8th Gen+ Intel processor) so the upgrade can be done at no cost through Windows Update.
⚠️ The PCIe x16 slot is full-height, not low-profile — unlike most SFF machines, this chassis accommodates standard full-height expansion cards up to a single-slot configuration. Confirm card length against the chassis clearance before purchasing a discrete GPU.
💡 At this price point the 256GB SSD is the most common upgrade candidates first — consider adding a 1TB or 2TB SATA HDD in the spare bay for bulk storage without replacing the primary drive.
