HP Z2 G4 Mid-Tower Workstation i5-9500 64GB 2TB NVMe Quadro RTX 5000 16GB

HP Z2 G4 Mid-Tower Workstation

This new HP Z2 G4 mid-tower workstation is built for professionals who need reliable compute and certified graphics. It pairs a 6-core Intel Core i5-9500 processor with 64GB of DDR4 2666 memory and an Nvidia Quadro RTX 5000 16GB GDDR6 card. Windows 11 Pro is pre-installed and digitally activated.

Installation and common issues

The chassis uses a toolless design for drive bays and expansion cards, so the 2TB NVMe SSD and Quadro card are already secured. Memory slots are accessible after removing the side panel; the four 16GB modules fill the standard DIMM array. The 500W 90% efficient supply uses proprietary connectors, so swapping it requires an HP-compatible unit. Quadro drivers should be sourced from Nvidia or HP for ISV certification.

Compatibility checks before ordering

Verify that your displays use DisplayPort 1.4 or the VirtualLink connector, as the card provides four DP 1.4 outputs and one VirtualLink port. The LGA 1151 socket and DDR4 2666 memory limit future CPU upgrades to 9th-generation Intel Core parts. The board supports up to 128GB total memory if you plan to add modules later. Ensure your workflow does not demand a higher-wattage supply than the fitted 500W unit.
