Dual Xeon Platinum 8168 workstation

The HP Z8 G4 carries two Intel Xeon Platinum 8168 processors running at 2.70GHz with 20 cores each. It is aimed at engineers, designers and data specialists who need sustained multi-threaded throughput for rendering, simulation and large-model CAD.

512GB DDR4 with room to grow

The system ships with 512GB of DDR4 memory and supports a maximum of 1536GB, so the upgrade path is clear when project sizes exceed the factory configuration. The jump is worth it when workloads regularly saturate the installed capacity or when virtual machines demand more headroom.

Four 3.5-inch drive bays limit bulk storage

Internal expansion is restricted to four 3.5-inch bays, which caps the number of high-capacity hard drives you can add without external enclosures. The 2TB NVMe boot drive handles active projects quickly, but archival libraries will need a separate storage strategy.
