Professional workstation for engineering and design

The HP Z8 G4 workstation targets engineers, designers and data analysts who need a reliable platform for CAD, rendering and large-scale simulations. Dual Xeon Platinum 8160 processors deliver 48 cores at 2.10GHz for responsive multi-threaded throughput. 256GB of DDR4 memory keeps extensive assemblies and datasets in fast RAM. Windows 11 Pro is pre-installed for immediate deployment.

Tower chassis with four 3.5-inch drive bays

The tower form factor provides four internal 3.5-inch bays for additional bulk storage beyond the boot drive. Front-panel LEDs show power, Ethernet and USB activity at a glance. A dedicated NVIDIA Quadro P4000 graphics card drives professional visual workloads and multi-display configurations. The unit weighs 55 and fits standard rack or floor placement.

48-core Xeon configuration defines compute ceiling

Two Xeon Platinum 8160 CPUs supply the maximum 48 cores this model supports, setting the hard limit for parallel workloads. Memory can be expanded to 1536GB DDR4 when projects outgrow the factory 256GB. The 512GB NVMe boot drive accelerates application and file access. Buyers who need more than 48 cores or a different GPU tier should evaluate alternative platforms.
