Configure Your HP Z820 Workstation

Processor
The Z820 supports dual Intel Xeon E5-2600v1 and E5-2600v2 series processors for the ultimate in power and performance. The Hyper-Threading support allows two threads to run simultaneously on each core -- Windows recognizes 48 total cores on this unit, 24 real and 24 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 48 cores it will automatically increase the speed of the core in use and turn off the unused cores.
ZWorkstations installs only final release, legitimate, in production processors. We never use engineering sample (ES) processors.
