HP Z8 G4 Workstation
The successor to the HP Z840 Workstation features the new Intel Scalable Xeon Processors, up to 28 Cores per Processor. Thats 56 Cores, 128 Threads, with dual processors. Has room for up 3TB of DDR4 RAM with 24 DIMM Slots and speeds up to 2666MT/s. Designed with a new split-chassis, the Z8 G4 uses four fewer fans than its predecessor allowing this high-performance system to operate almost silently.
Processors
The Z8 G4 is powered by Intel's new Scalable Xeon Processors. Each processor can have up to 28 cores, and with dual sockets this workstation will handle the most complex applications with support from up to 56 cores and 112 threads. Intel Scalable Processors are available in Options
