HP Z8 G4 dual Xeon Platinum 8160 workstation
The HP Z8 G4 is a rackmount workstation built for professional design, content creation, rendering, engineering and data-heavy applications. Dual Intel Xeon Platinum 8160 processors deliver 24 cores at 2.10GHz for responsive performance in demanding workflows. 256GB of DDR4 memory and a 2TB NVMe drive support smooth multitasking and quick access to large project files. An NVIDIA Quadro M2000 with 4GB GDDR5 handles professional visual tasks and multi-display setups. Windows 11 Pro is preinstalled for immediate use.
Who this suits and who should look elsewhere
This system suits engineers, designers and creators who need dual-socket CPU power, high memory capacity and certified professional graphics for CAD, rendering and simulation workloads. Buyers who require more than 256GB of memory or a higher-performance GPU for intensive 3D work should consider other configurations. The rackmount form factor and 60kg weight make it unsuitable for desktop environments or users needing a portable tower workstation.
Dual Xeon Platinum 8160
The defining specification is the dual Intel Xeon Platinum 8160 configuration providing 24 total cores on the LGA3647 platform. This processor choice determines the workstation's capacity for parallel compute tasks such as rendering, simulation and heavy multitasking. Memory can be expanded up to 1536GB DDR4 across available slots. Four 3.5in drive bays offer additional local storage expansion.

Questions about this item
How loud and hot does the dual Xeon Platinum 8160 setup run under sustained 24-core loads all day?
The workstation uses a rackmount chassis with dual LGA3647 sockets and a 2.10GHz base clock; sustained full-load thermals and acoustic output depend on the specific cooling configuration installed in the 4U rackmount form factor.
Which display cables and monitors do I need to use the Quadro M2000 4GB GDDR5 GPU out of the box?
The Quadro M2000 provides four DisplayPort 1.2 outputs; you must supply monitors with DisplayPort inputs or suitable adapters and the corresponding cables to drive up to four displays.
Will my existing DDR4 ECC RDIMMs work alongside the installed 256GB to reach the 1536GB maximum?
The system accepts DDR4 ECC RDIMMs in the remaining DIMM slots; matching speed, rank and voltage lets you expand toward the 1536GB ceiling across the two CPU memory controllers.
