28-Core HP Z840 Workstation

This new HP Z840 tower workstation ships with two Intel Xeon E5-2680 v4 processors, each running at 2.40 GHz with 14 cores, giving 28 cores total. It is built for professional workloads such as design, rendering, engineering and other data-heavy applications. 128 GB of DDR4 memory is installed to support smooth multitasking and large project files.

Suits CPU-heavy workflows needing 28 cores

Professionals who rely on multi-threaded CPU performance and large memory capacity will find this configuration ready for demanding tasks. Buyers who need a graphics card, storage drives or an operating system included should look elsewhere, as none are supplied.

Dual Xeon E5-2680 v4 14-core CPUs on LGA 2011

The two 14-core Xeon E5-2680 v4 processors are the specification that defines whether this workstation fits the workload. With 28 total cores at 2.40 GHz and 128 GB DDR4, it targets users whose primary need is high core-count CPU compute rather than GPU acceleration or pre-configured storage.

Questions about this item

Will the dual 14-core Xeon E5-2680 v4 CPUs hit thermal throttling first under sustained all-core loads?

The Z840 workstation uses a dual-processor cooling solution designed for two 14-core Xeon E5-2680 v4 CPUs running at 2.40 GHz, with airflow tuned for sustained professional workloads.

How loud are the chassis fans and what is the typical power draw when the 28 cores run continuously?

Fan speed ramps with CPU temperature; under full 28-core load the system draws the combined TDP of both Xeon E5-2680 v4 processors plus memory and chipset overhead.

Which storage drives and graphics card must I already own because none are included?

The unit ships with no hard drive, SSD, GPU or operating system, so you must supply your own boot drive, data drives and a supported graphics card.
