HP 400 Pro G9 Intel Core i5-13700 8GB RAM 512GB SSD

Description HP 400 Pro G9 SFF (99N41ET#ABB) HP 400 Pro G9 Intel Core i5-13700 8GB RAM 512GB SSD is priced at Kes 75,000  here at Novelty Tech Solution in Nairobi, Kenya Full Information 1. Overview & Design Product Line: HP Pro 400 Series. This is part of HP’s business-class lineup, designed for reliability, security, and easy manageability in corporate environments. Form Factor: SFF (Small Form Factor). This means the chassis is compact, saving desk space, but is still larger than a “Mini” or “Micro” tower and allows for some internal expansion. Chassis: Professional, utilitarian design with tool-less access for easy maintenance and upgrades. Includes a security lock slot. 2. Core Specifications (As Configured: 99N41ET) Processor (CPU): Intel Core i5-13700 (13th Generation) Cores: 16 total (8 Performance-cores 8 Efficient-cores) Threads: 24 Max Turbo Frequency: Up to 5.20 GHz Base Frequency: 2.10 GHz Memory (RAM): 8 GB DDR4 Type: DDR4-3200 MHz Slots: 2 x UDIMM slots (1 is occupied by the included 8GB stick, 1 is free for upgrade). Max Supported RAM: 64 GB (2 x 32 GB) Storage: 512 GB PCIe NVMe TLC M.2 SSD This is a fast solid-state drive using the modern NVMe interface. Operating System: Typically ships with Windows 11 Pro (64-bit) pre-installed, which is standard for business PCs. 3. Graphics & Display Graphics Card: Integrated Intel UHD Graphics 770 This is integrated into the CPU. It is perfectly capable for driving multiple monitors, general office work, web browsing, and video playback. It is not designed for high-end gaming or professional 3D rendering. 4. Expansion & Connectivity Ports (Front): 2 x USB-A (5 Gbps, USB 3.2 Gen 1) 1 x USB-C (5 Gbps, USB 3.2 Gen 1) Headphone/Microphone combo jack Ports (Rear): 4 x USB-A (5 Gbps, USB 3.2 Gen 1) 2 x USB-A (480 Mbps, USB 2.0) – often for keyboards/mice 1 x DisplayPort 1.4 1 x VGA port (legacy display support) 1 x RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet port Audio line-out, microphone in Expansion Slots: 1 x PCIe x16 (Gen 4.0) slot – for adding a dedicated graphics card (low-profile bracket required due to SFF case). 1 x PCIe x1 (Gen 3.0) slot 1 x M.2 slot for SSD (already occupied) Drive Bays: 1 x Internal M.2 slot (occupied by the 512GB SSD) 1 x 3.5″ internal hard drive bay (free for adding a high-capacity HDD for extra storage) 1 x Slim optical drive bay (optional) 5. Networking & Communication Wired LAN: Intel I219-LM Gigabit Ethernet Wireless: Note: This base configuration (99N41ET) often does NOT include a Wi-Fi card by default. It is a common optional add-on. If included, it would likely be a Wi-Fi 6E AX211 adapter. Always confirm with the seller if Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are included. Bluetooth: Only available if a wireless module is installed. 6. Software & Security Pre-installed OS: Windows 11 Pro Security Features: HP Tamper Lock Kensington lock slot Chassis Intrusion Switch Trusted Platform Module (TPM) 2.0 (required for Windows 11) BIOS-based security features 7. Power Supply Typically comes with a 90% efficient 180W external power adapter (brick). This is sufficient for the integrated graphics configuration. Adding a powerful dedicated GPU would likely require a higher-wattage PSU. 8. Dimensions & Weight Dimensions (W x D x H): Approx. 13.3 x 33.9 x 34.4 cm (5.24 x 13.35 x 13.56 in) Weight: Approx. 6.1 kg (13.4 lbs) Key Considerations & Upgrade Potential RAM: The 8GB of RAM is the minimum for comfortable Windows 11 operation today, especially with an i7 processor. For multitasking and future-proofing, adding a second 8GB stick (for 16GB total in dual-channel mode) is highly recommended. Storage: The 512GB NVMe SSD is fast and a good start. The free 3.5″ bay allows for adding a large (e.g., 2TB ) hard drive for storing files, archives, and media. Wi-Fi: Crucially, confirm if this model includes a Wi-Fi/Bluetooth card. If not, it can be added via the PCIe x1 slot or an M.2 key E slot (if available internally). Use Case: This is an excellent business workstation. It’s overpowered for basic tasks like word processing but perfect for power users, data analysis, accounting software, coding, and other CPU-intensive business applications. It is not a gaming or media editing PC in its base configuration, though a low-profile GPU could be added.
