The HP Z2 Tower G1i Workstation is a professional workstation for demanding applications in the field of modelling, simulation and rendering. The system is based on an Intel processor with 24 cores and 24 threads, achieving a boost frequency of 5.4 GHz and featuring a 36 MB L3 cache. The CPU supports Intel® Turbo-Boost technology to dynamically increase performance when needed. As memory, 32 GB DDR5-SDRAM with a clock frequency of 5600 MHz is installed, distributed across two modules of 16 GB each in UDIMM format. The memory is configured without ECC functionality, suitable for use in non-critical application environments.

Applications

The workstation is designed for professional workflows, particularly for users requiring high computing power and graphical processing. Support for high-end graphics cards enables use in areas such as CAD, 3D rendering, video editing and AI-accelerated applications. The integrated Intel AI Boost NPU delivers up to 13 tera-operations per second, increasing efficiency for productivity tasks. The combination of a dedicated GPU and NPU allows for efficient task distribution between AI inference and general computing.

Features and Equipment in Detail

The system features a dedicated graphics card from the NVIDIA RTX PRO 4000 Blackwell series with 24 GB GDDR7 memory, optimised for professional graphics applications. Additionally, an integrated Intel graphics solution is available as a backup or for basic tasks. The graphics card supports the PCIe 5.0 interface and is installed in an M.2 form factor. The storage media consist of a 1 TB SSD operating via the PCI Express 5.0 interface and NVMe technology, ensuring fast read and write performance.

Technology Explained Simply

The HP Z2 Tower G1i is equipped with an Intel W880 chipset, supporting the system's processing capacity. The power supply is 700 W, sufficient to cover the high power demands of the CPU and GPU. Intelligent fan control adjusts fan speeds in real time to optimise cooling while minimising noise. The ventilation opening with a grille design improves airflow and contributes to thermal stability.

Compatibility and Accessories

The system supports Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be) via the Intel Wi-Fi 7 BE200 controller with a 2x2 antenna configuration, enabling stable and fast wireless connectivity. Bluetooth 5.4 is also integrated. The connections include six USB 3.2 Gen 2 (Type A) and two USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 (Type C), as well as a microphone input. For expansions, a 8,9 cm ( 3,5 inch ) expansion slot and a PCIe x16 slot (Gen 4.x) are available, allowing adaptation to future requirements.

Mounting and Installation

The housing is in tower format and black in colour. Tool-free access facilitates upgrading components such as memory, SSDs or graphics cards. The system is suitable for rack environments, where one unit can be accommodated in a 4-HE rack. Installation is performed via the pre-configured Windows 11 Pro operating system, optimised for business environments.

Advantages in Operation

The workstation offers high performance density in a compact format. The combination of a powerful CPU, dedicated GPU and integrated NPU enables efficient processing of AI-accelerated workflows. Sustainability is supported by the use of 60 % recycled plastic, 20 % recycled steel and 100 % sustainably sourced outer packaging. Additionally, the device is certified with ENERGY STAR, EPEAT Gold with Climate+ and TCO10, highlighting its environmental compatibility. A QR code-enabled experience provides access to product features, sustainability information and setup guides via a product portal from December 2025.

Brand Characteristics

The device is positioned as an AI Workstation and AI PC, highlighting its capability for local AI processing. HP's segmentation is in the business sector, with the system designed for professional users. Intel® vPro™ platform capability is not available, meaning no special remote management functions are provided via this platform. The system includes password protection for BIOS and power-on to secure access.

Design and Sustainability

The housing has a width of 175 mm, depth of 426 mm and height of 175 mm. The weight is 8.6 kg. The packaging has a width of 590 mm, depth of 490 mm, height of 295 mm and a package weight of 12.5 kg. Sustainability compliance is ensured through the use of recycled materials and certification according to EPEAT, TCO and ENERGY STAR. The product is halogen-free and offers a QR code-enabled experience for further information.

Audio and Software

The integrated audio chip is a Realtek ALC3205, ensuring clear audio output. The installed operating system is Windows 11 Pro, optimised for professional users. The software environment allows the use of WSL2 or Linux® operating systems, depending on requirements.

Expandability

The system is designed for expansion. Tool-free access and available expansion slots enable adaptation to future requirements. Support for PCIe cards and the 8,9 cm ( 3,5 inch ) expansion slot provides flexibility for integrating additional components.
