Dell Precision 3430 SFF Overview

Built to deliver professional performance while maintaining a compact footprint, the Precision 3430 Small Form Factor Workstation from Dell is a fully configurable and ISV-certified system. This system is powered by a 3.0 GHz Intel Core i5-8500 Six-Core processor, which will allow you to run multiple applications simultaneously. The 8GB of 2666 MHz DDR4 RAM helps to ensure smooth multitasking and also allows the computer to quickly access frequently used files and programs. While the current memory configuration is 1 x 8GB, there are four 288-pin DIMM memory slots that will allow the RAM to be upgraded to 64GB, using one 16GB module in each of the four memory slots.

For storage of your files, a 1TB 5400 rpm SATA 2.5" SSHD and its 8GB cache offer quick access to your data. If you want to add external storage drives or other peripherals, the Precision 3420 features one 10 Gb/s USB 3.1 Gen 2 Type-C port, five 5 Gb/s USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-A ports (1 front, 4 rear), four USB 2.0 Type-A ports (2 front, 2 rear), and two PS/2 ports. The integrated Intel UHD Graphics 630 chipset delivers a sharp, clear picture while allowing for multiple simultaneous displays to be used via its two DisplayPort and single HDMI 2.0b video outputs. Whether you are listening to music, watching a movie, or playing a game, the integrated Realtek HD ALC3234 audio codec outputs high-definition audio and delivers higher fidelity than standard audio controllers. Other integrated features include an 8x DVD±RW drive and Gigabit Ethernet.

The Precision 3430 Small Form Factor Workstation includes Dell's KB216 USB keyboard, MS116 USB mouse, and a power cord. It operates using a 200W 92% efficient power supply that is compatible with 100-240 VAC at 50-60 Hz. The installed operating system is Windows 10 Pro (64-bit).

Independent Software Vendor (ISV) Certification
Precision Workstations are tested to ensure that high-performance applications you rely on every day run smoothly. Dell ISV certifications cover popular independent software applications. A complete list is available on Dell's website.

Windows 10 Pro (64-Bit)
Start Menu
After its hiatus in Windows 8, the Start Menu has returned. Utilizing a combination of the traditional menu system and Windows 8's Live Tiles, the improved Start Menu gives you more information at a glance, showing notification information alongside your applications and other pinned items.
Cortana
Microsoft's digital personal assistant, Cortana can answer your questions with information gleaned from both your device and the internet at large. You can type or even talk with her, if your system has a microphone. Using her Notebook, Cortana keeps track of your needs and wants, and she learns over time to improve her information gathering skills.
Microsoft Edge
After nearly 20 years, Microsoft has finally replaced its Internet Explorer web browser. With Microsoft Edge, users can write directly on web pages and share notes with friends and colleagues. It also improves the online reading experience by adding a distraction-free mode and read-it-later functionality. Edge also has built-in Cortana integration; you can have her help you find a restaurant, make a reservation, and pull up directions without leaving your browser.
Windows Store
For Windows 10, Microsoft has unified the Windows Store. Now, apps for PCs, tablets, and phones will all be accessible from one place. And with support for Universal Apps, one version of an app can work across all your compatible devices automatically.
Windows Continuum
Windows 10 was designed for a variety of screen sizes and input styles, and with its Continuum feature, it automatically adapts to fit your needs. A Windows 10 tablet on its own requires a touch-centric approach, but attaching a mouse and keyboard will shift everything to a more traditional interface. You can even attach an external monitor to your Windows 10 phone for a near-desktop experience. But it's not just the operating system; Windows Universal Apps take advantage of Continuum as well.
Xbox on Windows 10
Gaming is a big focus of Windows 10. Xbox integration allows for PC players to match up against Xbox One players on supported games, and if you have an Xbox One, you can even stream compatible titles to your PC. Native support for recording with the new Game DVR feature makes it easy to capture and share your gameplay. The new DirectX12 takes better advantage of multi-core processors, giving games a performance boost, even on older hardware. Windows 10 also features native support for virtual reality headsets, such as the Oculus Rift.
Windows 10 Pro
The Pro version of Windows 10 includes all of the features of Windows 10 Home plus many designed specifically for business users, including Hyper-V virtualization, BitLocker disk encryption, and remote desktop access. Devices will also be able to join domains and the Azure Active Directory, and they can even access a specialized version of the Windows Store featuring custom, company-specific applications.
