Professional 48-core workstation
The HP Z8 G4 is a rackmount workstation built for professionals in design, engineering, rendering and data-heavy applications. Two Intel Xeon Platinum 8160 processors deliver 48 cores at 2.10GHz, paired with 128GB of DDR4 memory and a 512GB NVMe drive. An NVIDIA Quadro P2000 graphics card supports CAD, content creation and multi-display workflows on Windows 11 Pro.
Suited for heavy multitasking.
This system suits users who need high core counts and professional graphics for large projects and smooth multitasking. Buyers who need more system memory than 128GB installed should look at a different platform. The four 3.5-inch bays limit internal storage expansion compared to larger arrays. Only one dedicated GPU is included, so multi-GPU rendering workloads are not supported.
Dual Xeon Platinum 8160 processors provide 48 cores
The decisive specification is the dual-socket configuration with two Xeon Platinum 8160 CPUs totalling 48 cores at 2.10GHz. This core density drives throughput for parallel workloads such as simulation, rendering and compilation. Memory can scale to 1536GB DDR4 across the platform, but the installed 128GB sets the immediate working capacity.

Questions about this item
How can I verify the workstation is running correctly after first boot?
Check that Windows 11 Pro loads, both Xeon Platinum 8160 processors appear with 48 total cores at 2.10 GHz, 128 GB DDR4 is recognised, the 512 GB NVMe drive is visible, and the Quadro P2000 drives your display.
What comes in the box and what must I purchase separately?
The unit includes the rackmount chassis with power, Ethernet and USB LEDs, two installed Xeon Platinum 8160 CPUs, 128 GB DDR4, 512 GB NVMe M.2, Quadro P2000 GPU and Windows 11 Pro; any extra 3.5" drives or memory up to 1536 GB are separate.
Which configuration should I choose for heavy rendering versus lighter CAD work?
This single listed build delivers 48 cores, 128 GB DDR4, 512 GB NVMe and a Quadro P2000; it covers both heavy rendering and CAD, while four 3.5" bays and 1536 GB max memory allow future expansion.
