Compact workstation desktop

The HP Z2 G9 is a small-form-factor desktop built around a 14-core Intel Core i5-14500 processor with a 5GHz turbo frequency. It ships with 16GB of DDR5 memory and a 2TB NVMe SSD running Windows 11 Pro. A DVD±RW drive, wired keyboard and mouse are included in the box.

Suits mainstream office workloads

This configuration handles typical business applications, web browsing and multitasking with the integrated Intel UHD Graphics. Buyers who need discrete graphics performance for 3D rendering, video editing or gaming should look at a different system. The 460W power supply and compact chassis also limit the scope for adding high-power expansion cards later.

14-core processor with 5GHz turbo

The Intel Core i5-14500 delivers 14 cores and a maximum turbo frequency of 5GHz, supported by 24MB of SmartCache. This specification determines the system's ability to run parallel workloads and burst to high single-thread speeds for responsive everyday computing.

Questions about this item

The listing shows 16GB DDR5 — is that one stick or two, and how many slots are free?

The system ships with 16GB of DDR5 memory. The Z2 G9 small-form-factor chassis has four DIMM slots, so adding more DDR5 later is possible without removing the original module.

What does the 5GHz turbo on the 14-core i5-14500 actually deliver in daily workloads?

The 14-core i5-14500 reaches 5GHz on its performance cores under light-threaded tasks, while heavier multi-threaded work runs at lower sustained clocks within the 460W power supply limit.

The spec mentions DisplayPort and Gigabit Ethernet — what display resolutions and network speeds do those ports support?

The integrated Intel UHD Graphics drives DisplayPort outputs up to 4K at 60Hz, and the onboard Gigabit Ethernet caps wired network throughput at 1Gbps.
