HP Z2 G4 desktop PC Intel Core i5-9500 32GB DDR4 2TB NVMe Nvidia Quadro P5000 16GB

Workstation for professional workflows

The HP Z2 G4 is a mid-tower desktop built for engineers, designers and analysts who need certified stability. It pairs a six-core Intel Core i5-9500 running at 3.0 GHz with 4.4 GHz turbo with 32 GB of DDR4 2666 memory. A 2 TB NVMe SSD and an Nvidia Quadro P5000 with 16 GB GDDR5X deliver fast storage and professional graphics in a single chassis. Windows 11 Pro is pre-installed.

PCIe 3.0 x16 limits GPU expansion

The single PCIe 3.0 x16 slot occupied by the Quadro P5000 restricts the addition of a second high-end graphics card. Four DisplayPort 1.4 outputs and one dual-link DVI-D port support multi-monitor setups without extra adapters. The 500 W power supply operates at 90 % efficiency but leaves limited headroom for further power-hungry add-in cards. Integrated Gigabit Ethernet and 5.1 audio cover basic connectivity needs.

32 GB memory handles typical CAD datasets

Four populated DIMM slots provide 32 GB of DDR4 2666 out of a 128 GB maximum, leaving room for future upgrades if larger modules are sourced. The 2 TB NVMe drive accommodates active projects and operating-system overhead with ample headroom. The Quadro P5000's 16 GB GDDR5X frame buffer suits complex 3D models and GPU-accelerated rendering, while very large simulations or multi-GPU render farms will exceed the single-card configuration.
