Benchmark for OptiPlex 3040
From Leo's Notes
This page was last edited on 14 September 2022, at 21:56.
Here are the results for a Dell OptiPlex 3040 in a small form factor (SFF) configuration.
The machine was manufactured in 2017 which I recently bought in 2022 from a local seller on Ebay for around $80 CAD (without a hard drive). I slapped on a very slow SSHD hard drive here just to install Fedora on which will likely bring the final score down. The i3-6100 processor seems to be on par with the older benchmark I did on the Dell OptiPlex 3010 which had an i3-3220 CPU back in 2013 (wow, that was 9 years ago!).
Results Overview
| Hardware | Dell OptiPlex 3040 |
|---|---|
| CPU | Intel(R) Core(TM) i3-6100 CPU @ 3.70GHz |
| Memory | 8GB DDR3 |
| Disk | Seagate 500GB SATA 2.5" SSHD |
| Operating System | Fedora 36 x86_64 |
| Score | 1331.8 / 2926.7 |
