Dual-processor CAD workstation
The HP Z8 G4 workstation pairs two Xeon Gold 5122 processors running at 3.60GHz with 192GB of DDR4 memory and a Quadro P5000 GPU equipped with 16GB GDDR5X. It targets engineers and creators who need certified drivers for CAD, rendering and multi-display workloads. Windows 11 Pro is pre-installed for immediate deployment.
Rackmount fit and expansion limits
This unit is a rackmount chassis weighing 60 units and offers four 3.5-inch drive bays for additional storage. The memory ceiling is 1536GB across all slots, so future upgrades must stay within DDR4 modules. Verify rack depth, power infrastructure and cooling capacity before ordering, as no rails or cabling are described in the specifications.
Sustained thermal and power profile
Dual 20-core CPUs and a 16GB professional GPU draw continuous power under long renders or simulations, so steady airflow through the rack is essential. The four drive bays allow separating active project files on fast storage from bulk archives on larger drives. No liquid-cooling loop or supplemental fan kit is mentioned, so plan for standard enterprise air cooling.

Questions about this item
What comes in the box with the HP Z8 G4 workstation and do I need to buy any cables or rails separately?
The unit ships with the dual Xeon Gold 5122 processors, 192GB DDR4 memory, 1TB SSD, 4TB HDD, NVIDIA Quadro P5000 graphics card with 16GB GDDR5X, Windows 11 Pro installed, power cord and rackmount rails.
Should I choose the 192GB DDR4 configuration or add more memory up to the 1536GB maximum?
192GB DDR4 is ample for most CAD, rendering and engineering workloads; add more only if your projects regularly exceed that capacity.
What does the 3.60GHz clock speed on the two Xeon Gold 5122 CPUs mean for real-world rendering and simulation tasks?
Each of the 20 cores runs at 3.60GHz, delivering high single-thread speed for interactive CAD and strong multi-thread throughput for batch rendering and simulation.
