Dual Xeon Platinum 8160 workstation

The HP Z8 G4 is a new dual-processor workstation built for professional design, content creation, rendering, engineering, and data-heavy applications. Two Intel Xeon Platinum 8160 CPUs deliver 48 cores at 2.10GHz, providing responsive performance for demanding tasks. 512GB of DDR4 memory supports smooth multitasking across large projects. A 1TB SATA SSD and NVIDIA Quadro P5000 graphics complete the platform with Windows 11 Pro preinstalled.

Suits heavy multitasking and multi-display CAD

This system suits professionals who need many cores and a large memory pool for simultaneous applications, complex simulations, or multi-display CAD workflows. The four 3.5-inch expansion bays allow additional local storage for growing project libraries. Buyers who need GPU compute features not present on the Quadro P5000 or who require faster boot and scratch speeds than a SATA SSD provides should evaluate alternative configurations.

512GB DDR4 with 1536GB ceiling

Installed 512GB DDR4 handles large datasets, heavy multitasking, and memory-intensive rendering comfortably. The platform supports up to 1536GB total, giving headroom for future expansion when workloads grow. The 1TB SATA SSD offers quick access to applications and active project files, with capacity for everyday professional work; very large media libraries or scratch volumes will require additional drives in the available bays.

Questions about this item

What DDR4 memory speed must my existing modules match to add to the 512 GB already installed?

The installed DDR4 runs at the standard speed for Xeon Platinum 8160 processors; add modules rated for that platform to keep the 512 GB configuration stable.

Will the Quadro P5000 drive my older 1080p monitors alongside a new 4K panel?

The Quadro P5000 supports multi-display setups, so it can drive legacy 1080p screens and a 4K panel at the same time.

How do I confirm the 48 cores and 512 GB are recognised after first boot?

Open Task Manager or System Information in Windows 11 Pro; both will show 48 logical processors and 512 GB of installed DDR4 memory.
