Configure Your HP Z4 Workstation

  • Processor

    The HP Z4 supports one Intel Xeon W-series processor. The Hyper-Threading support allows two threads to run simultaneously on each core -- Windows recognizes 36 total cores on the Z4, 18 real and 18 virtual. It also supports "Turbo Boost" which automatically boosts the processor speed based on workload - so if an application is only using one of the 18 cores it will automatically increase the speed of the core in use and turn off the unused cores.

    Intel Xeon W Seies
    Intel Core i7/i9 Series

    Memory

    The Z4 has 8 DIMM Slots supporting up to 512GB DDR4 ECC Memory. If you wish to have more than 128GB memory, please contact us. Choose more memory to improve overall system performance.
