Dell OptiPlex 7060 Micro
Dell equivalent of the ThinkCentre Tiny, same era and same use case.
Our archived specification sheet covers the 7060. Treat 7070 details as unverified until we archive that sheet too.
Configuration used by the calculators: RAM 16 GB (our estimate), CPU 6 cores (our estimate), storage 512 GB (our estimate). A specification sheet describes a family, not the unit in front of you, so enter what your machine actually has.
Our estimated idle draw is 10 W at the wall and our estimated household average is 20 W. Neither is a measurement. A plug meter costs little and will beat any estimate on this site.
We publish no purchase price for this machine. Used prices move constantly and we have no archived price source we would stand behind, so the buy versus rent calculator asks you for the price you can actually get.

| cpu cores typical | 6 cores | our estimate | Derived from the archived document: Intel® Core™ i5-8500T (6 Cores/9MB/6T/up to 3.5GHz/35W); supports Windows 10/Linux (Micro only). We plan the 6-core i5-8500T, the common second-hand configuration. | Document 18, retrieved 2026-09-08 |
| cpu options | Up to Core i7-8700T, 6 cores, 35 W | vendor documented | Quoted from the archived document: Intel® Core™ i7-8700T (6 Cores/12MB/12T/up to 4.0GHz/35W); supports Windows 10/Linux (Micro only) | Document 18, retrieved 2026-09-08 |
| max ram gb | 32 GB | vendor documented | Quoted from the archived document: 32GB (2x16GB) 2666MHz DDR4 Memory | Document 18, retrieved 2026-09-08 |
| power idle w | 10 W | our estimate | Derived from the archived document: Intel® Core™ i5-8500T (6 Cores/9MB/6T/up to 3.5GHz/35W). A 35 W processor in a micro chassis. We estimate 10 W at the wall at idle. This is not a measurement. | Document 18, retrieved 2026-09-08 |
| power typical w | 20 W | our estimate | Our reasoning: We estimate 20 W as a household average with light services running. Measure your own machine. | No document, our reasoning only |
| ram slots | 2 slots | vendor documented | Quoted from the archived document: 4 DIMM slots (2 SODIMM slots for Micro); Non-ECC dual-channel 2666Hz DDR4 SDRAM | Document 18, retrieved 2026-09-08 |
| ram typical gb | 16 GB | our estimate | Our reasoning: Two SODIMM slots in the Micro. We plan 16 GB. Enter the memory your unit has. | No document, our reasoning only |
| storage typical gb | 512 GB | our estimate | Our reasoning: M.2 plus a 2.5 inch bay depending on configuration. We plan a 512 GB drive. | No document, our reasoning only |
