Dell OptiPlex 7050 Desktop PC i7-7700T 8GB 256GB NVMe SSD WiFi Win 10 Pro Wty
Dell OptiPlex 7050 — Quad-Core Business Desktop
A business desktop with the quad-core Intel Core i7-7700T, 8GB of memory, a 256GB NVMe SSD and built-in Wi-Fi, running Windows 10 Pro. Supplied with a 12-month Reboot IT warranty.
Key Benefits
- Core i7 with eight threads — the i7-7700T runs four cores and eight threads to 3.8GHz — noticeably more capable under multitasking than the i5 machines usual at this level.
- 256GB NVMe solid-state storage — NVMe rather than SATA, so boot and application launch are immediate — the single biggest factor in how quick a machine feels.
- Built-in Wi-Fi — wireless networking included, so the machine can be placed where there is no Ethernet point — unusual on a business desktop and genuinely useful.
- Low-power 35W processor — the T-series chip runs cool and quiet, so it suits reception areas, consulting rooms and shared offices where fan noise matters.
- Business-grade chassis — Dell OptiPlex commercial build with tool-less serviceability and components specified for years of daily use.
- Expandable — additional memory slots and drive capacity mean the machine can be upgraded rather than replaced.
Performance in Use
The i7-7700T pairs four cores and eight threads with a 35W power envelope. That combination is the point: it delivers genuine i7 multitasking performance while running cool and quiet enough for a shared workspace. Microsoft 365, a heavy browser session, accounting software and a video call run together comfortably.
The 256GB NVMe SSD is what makes it feel fast. NVMe is several times quicker than the SATA drives common in refurbished desktops, so boot, wake and application launch are effectively instant. Combined with 8GB of memory this handles ordinary business work without hesitation, and memory can be increased if your workload grows.
Built-in Wi-Fi widens where it can go — a reception desk, a consulting room, a workshop, anywhere without a convenient network point. Because the i7-7700T is a 7th-generation part it is not supported for Windows 11, and Windows 10 security updates have ended, so this suits internally-managed, offline or single-purpose roles rather than general internet-facing use.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why Windows 10 rather than Windows 11?
The Intel Core i7-7700T is not on Microsoft's supported processor list for Windows 11, so Windows 10 Pro is the correct and stable choice for this hardware. Microsoft security updates for Windows 10 have now ended, so this suits offline, single-purpose or internally-managed roles rather than general internet-facing use.
What does the T in i7-7700T mean?
It is Intel's low-power desktop variant — 35W rather than 65W. It runs cooler and quieter than a standard desktop chip while keeping four cores and eight threads.
Is the Wi-Fi built in?
Yes — wireless networking is included alongside Gigabit Ethernet, so the machine does not need a network cable to be useful.
Can I add more memory or storage?
Yes — there are additional memory slots and spare drive capacity, so both can be increased.
Will it drive two monitors?
Yes — DisplayPort and HDMI run two independent displays.
Is the operating system genuine?
Yes. Windows 10 Pro is installed and activated against the licence embedded in the unit.
How is data from the previous owner handled?
Every drive is wiped to a documented erasure standard before the operating system is reinstalled. Nothing from the prior deployment remains.
What are the delivery options?
Shipping costs apply based on size and destination — rates are calculated at checkout.
