Processor
The Central Processing Unit (CPU) is like the brains of your desktop computer. Its performance determines how fast and responsive your PC is.

For Dell Optiplex 7060 SFF, you have options to configure it with a 65W 8th Generation Intel Coffee Lake quad-core Intel Core i3-8100 up to a 65W 6-core Intel Core i7-8700 with a boost speed up to 4.60 GHz.While Dell Precision 3450 SFF has configurations with a 65W 10th Generation Intel Comet Lake quad-core Intel Core i3-10105 up to a 80W 8-core Intel Xeon W-1390 with a boost speed up to 5.20 GHz.
Memory
The Random Access Memory or RAM is the super-fast and temporary storage used to handle all active tasks, apps, and games that will go away when your PC turns off. The more memory your PC has, the better multitasking your PC can handle without having to reload data from slower permanent storage that includes the hard disk drive or solid-state drive.
