Does this PC come with a monitor and other peripherals?

The product description indicates that a keyboard and mouse are included. A monitor is not included and must be purchased separately.

What operating system is installed?

This PC comes pre-installed with Windows 11 Pro (64-bit).

Is this PC suitable for gaming?

The P500 SFF is designed for business and productivity tasks. It features integrated Intel® UHD Graphics, which are not optimized for demanding modern gaming. For gaming, a system with a dedicated graphics card would be more suitable.

How do I access the internal components for upgrades?

The ASUS ExpertCenter P500 SFF features a tool-free chassis design, allowing you to open the case without any tools for easy access to internal components for maintenance or upgrades.

What is the benefit of the MIL-STD-810H compliance?

MIL-STD-810H compliance means the PC has been tested to withstand harsh environmental conditions, such as extreme temperatures, humidity, and physical shocks, ensuring greater reliability and durability in demanding workplaces.

Troubleshooting

PC does not power on

Check that the power cable is securely connected to both the PC and a working wall outlet. Verify the power supply switch on the back of the PC is in the 'on' position.

Slow performance or freezing

Close unnecessary applications running in the background. Restart the computer. Ensure the system has the latest Windows updates and driver installations. Check for any pending software updates from ASUS.

No display output

Ensure the monitor cable is securely connected to both the PC's display output (DisplayPort or HDMI) and the monitor. Try a different cable or monitor if possible. Confirm the monitor is set to the correct input source.

Wi-Fi or Bluetooth not connecting

Verify that Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are enabled in Windows settings. Restart the PC. Update the network adapter drivers through Device Manager or the ASUS support website.

Unusual fan noise

Ensure the PC's vents are not obstructed. Dust build-up can cause fans to work harder. If the noise persists, especially under light load, consider checking internal component temperatures and air flow. Perform internal cleaning if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Upon unboxing, connect the included keyboard, mouse, and monitor to the appropriate ports. Power on the PC and follow the on-screen prompts to complete the Windows 11 Pro setup, including network configuration and user account creation. Ensure the Wi-Fi or Ethernet connection is active for initial updates.

Compatibility: The P500 SFF is designed for business applications and general productivity. It features multiple USB ports (including USB 2.0, USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A, and Type-C), DisplayPort 1.4, and HDMI 1.4 for display connectivity. It supports wired Ethernet and Wi-Fi 6 for network access, and Bluetooth 5.4 for peripherals. It's compatible with a wide range of business software and peripherals. For expansion, it offers one PCI Express x16 Gen 4.0 slot and two SATA III connectors, along with one 3.5" bay.

Care: To maintain optimal performance and longevity, keep the PC in a well-ventilated area, away from direct heat sources and dust. Periodically clean the exterior and air vents with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using liquid cleaners directly on the chassis. For internal maintenance, leverage the tool-free design to access components and clean dust build-up from fans and heat sinks. Ensure all software, including Windows and drivers, are kept up-to-date for security and performance.
