COMPUTER HP PRO TOWER 290 G9 D79SLAT I7-13TH/8GB DDR4/512GB NVME

HP Pro Tower 290 G9 (D79SLAT) is a reliable business desktop built for everyday office computing, from documents and spreadsheets to multitasking across several applications at once. It’s powered by a 13th Gen Intel Core i7-13700 processor (16 cores, 24 threads, up to 5.2GHz) paired with 8GB of DDR4-3200 RAM and a fast 512GB PCIe NVMe M.2 SSD, giving quick boot times and smooth day-to-day performance.

Powerful 13th Gen Performance

At the heart of the HP Pro Tower 290 G9 is a 13th Gen Intel Core i7-13700 processor, offering 16 cores and 24 threads with speeds up to 5.2GHz and a generous 30MB of L3 cache. Whether you’re running office productivity suites, managing dozens of browser tabs, or handling light creative work, this desktop has the headroom to keep things running smoothly. Integrated Intel UHD Graphics 770 handles everyday visual tasks and dual-monitor output with ease, so no separate graphics card is needed for standard business use.

Fast Storage and Ample Memory

The 512GB PCIe NVMe M.2 SSD dramatically reduces boot and load times compared to a traditional hard drive, so the system is ready to work almost as soon as you press the power button. It ships with 8GB of DDR4-3200 RAM, and because the HP Pro Tower 290 G9 has two DIMM slots, memory can be expanded up to 32GB down the line if your workload grows.

Connectivity That Keeps You Online

Built-in Wi-Fi 6 (Realtek RTL8852BE) and Bluetooth 5.3 keep the machine connected without cables, while the Gigabit RJ-45 port provides a stable wired option for demanding office networks. On the front and rear you’ll find a mix of USB-C and USB-A ports (including 10Gbps and 5Gbps speeds), plus HDMI and DisplayPort outputs that support dual-monitor setups for anyone who multitasks across two screens.

Room to Grow: Expansion and Upgrades

Unlike many compact office PCs, the HP Pro Tower 290 G9 is designed with future upgrades in mind. Inside the tool-less chassis you’ll find two M.2 slots, a PCIe 3.0 x1 slot, and a PCIe 4.0 x16 slot, giving you room to add storage, a discrete graphics card, or other expansion cards as your needs change, without having to replace the whole system.

Business-Grade Security

Security is built in from the ground up. Firmware TPM 2.0 and HP DriveLock help protect sensitive business data, while a physical security lock slot and an optional intrusion sensor add another layer of protection against tampering. For IT teams managing multiple machines, HP Support Assistant simplifies driver and firmware updates across the fleet.

Compact, Durable Design

Measuring just 15.5 x 30.3 x 33.7cm and weighing 4.7kg, the tower fits comfortably under a desk or on a shelf without taking up unnecessary space. It comes with a wired keyboard and mouse included, so it’s ready to set up and use right out of the box.
