Office computers are desktop PCs for everyday work with documents, email, web browsing, video calls and business software. Our range includes over 1,000 desktop models, most with integrated graphics and a few with a discrete graphics card for more demanding applications. The brands you will meet most often are CAPTIVA, DELL, LENOVO, HP and ACER.
How to choose an office computer
Processor. For documents, email and browsing, an Intel Core i3, Core i5 or AMD Ryzen 5 is usually enough. Our range has many models with Intel Core i5, Intel Core Ultra 5 and Intel Core Ultra 7. The Ultra 7 is worth considering if you run many programs at once or work with large spreadsheets.
Memory. 16 GB covers most office tasks, while 32 GB is more comfortable with dozens of browser tabs and heavier software. Check the maximum memory the computer supports: our range includes models that take 32, 64 or even 128 GB, so you can add more later.
Storage. Almost all models in our range use an SSD, and 512 GB is the most common capacity. Choose 1 TB if you keep files on the computer rather than in the cloud. 256 GB can fill up quickly once several large applications are installed.
Graphics. Integrated processor graphics handle documents, video calls and several monitors. A discrete graphics card is needed for CAD, 3D modelling or video editing. You will find models with NVIDIA RTX A400, RTX A1000 or RTX 2000 Ada, and a few with GeForce RTX 4060 or RTX 5070.
Operating system. Many of our models come with Windows 11 Pro, which suits business use because the computer can join a company domain and BitLocker drive encryption can be managed. Some have Windows 11 Home or Linux, and others come without a system if you already hold a licence.

Frequently asked questions
What specification should I choose for everyday office work?
An Intel Core i5 or AMD Ryzen 5 processor, 16 GB of memory and a 512 GB SSD cover everyday work comfortably. That is enough for office software, a browser and video calls. If you plan to keep the computer for several years, choose a model where the memory can be expanded.
Does an office computer need a separate graphics card?
Usually not. Integrated processor graphics handle documents, video calls and multiple monitors. A discrete graphics card is only needed for CAD, 3D modelling, video editing or other graphics-heavy software.
How is an office PC different from a gaming PC?
An office PC is built for stable daily work, so it typically has integrated graphics and quieter cooling. A gaming PC normally has a powerful discrete graphics card, which costs more and draws more power. Business models also often include management and security features that gaming PCs generally lack.
Is it worth choosing an office computer with Windows 11 Pro?
Yes, if the computer will be used in a company. Windows 11 Pro allows the device to join a company domain and offers drive encryption management, which Windows 11 Home has less of. For a home office or a small team without central management, Home may be enough.
