The HP Z2 Mini G1i Workstation is a compact desktop computer of the workstation class, designed for professional applications in the field of 3D design, real-time rendering, and basic model development. The device is based on an Intel Core Ultra 5 processor from the 245 series and features 16 GB DDR5-SDRAM with a clock speed of 6400 MHz, as well as a 512 GB SSD in M.2 form factor with PCI Express 4.0 interface. The operating system pre-installed is Windows 11 Pro. The housing is designed as a mini PC and is black, allowing flexible integration into various work environments.

Applications

The workstation is designed for demanding professional workflows, particularly for tasks requiring high computing power and graphical processing. These include 3D modeling, real-time rendering, and basic development work. The integrated Neural Processing Unit (NPU) supports AI-accelerated workflows, enabling productivity tasks to be processed more efficiently. GPU support for Windows Studio Effects also allows the use of AI-based productivity features within the operating system.

Functions and Equipment in Detail

The processor features 14 cores, divided into 6 performance cores and 8 efficient cores, with a maximum turbo frequency of 5.1 GHz (performance cores) and 4.5 GHz (efficient cores). The total cache size is 24 MB L3 cache. The maximum turbo power of the processor is 121 W, with a base power of 65 W. The integrated NPU delivers up to 13 tera-operations per second, while the total processor performance can reach up to 29 tera-operations per second. Supported AI software frameworks include DirectML, OpenVINO, Windows ML, ONNX RT, and WebNN.

Technology Explained Simply

The workstation combines a powerful CPU with a dedicated NVIDIA RTX A400-series graphics card featuring 4 GB GDDR6 memory. The integrated Intel graphics handle basic operations, while the NVIDIA GPU is responsible for demanding graphical tasks. The memory architecture with DDR5-SDRAM and 6400 MHz clock speed ensures fast data transfer rates. The M.2 SSD with PCI Express 4.0 interface offers high access speeds. The power supply has a capacity of 280 W and operates with an input voltage of 100–240 V at 50–60 Hz.

Compatibility and Accessories

The device supports Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be) with an Intel Wi-Fi 7 BE200 controller and Bluetooth 5.4. Network connectivity is via an RJ-45 port with 10/100/1000Base-T(X) technology. Interfaces include 4 USB 3.2 Gen 2 (Type A), 2 USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 (Type C), 2 DisplayPort connectors (version 1.4), and a combined headphone/microphone jack. Expandability is supported by two SO-DIMM memory slots (up to 128 GB) and two M.2 SSD slots. Tool-free access enables easy upgrades.

Mounting and Installation

The device can be positioned horizontally or vertically and fits both on a desk and behind a monitor. It is suitable for rack environments, with 6 units fitting in a 5-HE rack. Installation requires no special tools, as access to memory and SSD is tool-free.

Advantages in Operation

The combination of compact design and high performance makes the workstation ideal for workspaces with limited space. The integrated NPU and dedicated GPU enable efficient AI-based workflows. Expandability and tool-free access simplify adaptation to growing requirements. The use of 60 % recycled plastic and 8 % recycled steel, along with EPEAT® Gold certification with Climate+, highlights sustainable manufacturing.
