Built on HP Breakthroughs
•Security
Comprehensive Security
With world-class HP Wolf Security for Business5 on your workstation, you can focus on driving results. The PC is protected below, in and above the OS.
•Reliability
Reliability You Can Trust
Get peace of mind with a workstation that’s built to endure. The Z8 undergoes 360K hours of rigorous testing, military-standard testing6, is certified for industry leading professional software, and built to run your heaviest workloads.
•Lifecycle
Maximize Your
IT Lifecycle
Designed for simpler IT management, the Z8 G5 desktop workstation is built for longevity with a 3 year lifecycle—longer than entry workstations. Plan for the future and avoid re-qualifying devices every year, saving you serious time and money.
•Sustainability
Better for People.
Better for the Planet.
Here's why our TCO Certified, ENERGY STAR awarded and EPEAT assessed Z by HP portfolio helps protect our shared future.14
Cool and Quiet Under
Any Workload
Push your system to the max without disruptive noise.
Smart Fan
Control
Smart fan control keeps the system whisper-quiet by tuning fan speeds in real-time using over 20 temperature sensors. Precisely placed vents and ducts streamline airflow and heat removal.
Unthrottled
Performance
Thermal technology keeps the processor and graphics card consistently cool, so they can run at max performance without throttling.13
3D Vapor
Chamber
Cooling
To efficiently cool the processor and deliver low acoustic levels even at full performance, the vapor chamber contains a small amount of liquid and is precisely tuned for the system’s power dissipation and temperature requirements. Sensors and proprietary algorithms optimize fans and vapor cooling—a more reliable method than traditional liquid cooling’s use of pumps, tubing, and heat exchanges.
Available in Premium CPU Cooler.
