HP Z840 Mini Tower Overview

Within the Z Series, the Z840 Series Rackable Minitower Workstation from HP delivers extreme performance in a rackable 5U minitower form factor. The Z840 is designed for professionals who require high reliability and is well suited for tasks such as intensive graphics, 3D rendering, multimedia, and gaming, as well as science and engineering applications. The system is powered by two 3.2 GHz Intel Xeon E5-2667 v3 processors armed with 8 cores on each CPU, which will allow you to run multiple applications simultaneously and provide significant performance gains when running multi-threaded tasks. If you need more power, the CPU can deliver extra performance by increasing the clock speed up to 3.6 GHz utilizing Intel's Turbo Boost 2.0 technology.

The 64GB of 2133 MHz DDR4 ECC Registered RAM allows the computer to run multiple applications simultaneously and also to quickly access frequently-used files and programs. This Z840 is able to support eight DIMM slots per processor, for a total of 16 slots. The current 64GB memory configuration is made up of 16 x 4GB modules, which can be upgraded to up to 128GB per slot. As this RAM features ECC technology, it is able to help detect and correct the most common kinds of internal data corruption. This RAM is also registered and registered memory modules, also known as buffered memory modules, place less electrical loads on the memory controller and allow single systems to remain stable with more memory modules than they would have otherwise.

For long-term storage of your files, a 1TB SATA hard drive offers quick access to your data. If you want to add external storage drives or other peripherals, the Z840 features a Thunderbolt 2 port, eight USB 3.0 ports, two USB 2.0 ports, one serial port, and a PS/2 keyboard and mouse port. For users who wish to add additional components to the drive bays, the Z840 features four internal 3.5" drive bays and two external 5.25" drive bays. The dedicated NVIDIA Quadro K5200 graphics card features 8GB of GDDR5 RAM over a 256-bit memory interface with a bandwidth of 192 GB/s and delivers a sharp, clear picture while allowing for a wide range of monitors to be used via its dual DisplayPorts, single Dual Link DVI-I port, and single Dual Link DVI-D port. Whether you are listening to music, watching a movie, or playing a game, the integrated IDT 92HD94 audio controller outputs high definition audio and delivers higher fidelity than standard audio controllers.

The Z840 Rackable Minitower F1L40UT Workstation is powered by a 1,125W power supply and includes a USB keyboard, a USB 1,000 dpi laser mouse, and a power cord. While the installed operating system is Windows 7 Professional (64-bit), a Windows 8.1 Professional (64-bit) license is included.

You must back up all data (files, photos, etc.) before uninstalling and installing operating systems to avoid loss of your data
    Intel Turbo Boost Technology
    Intel Turbo Boost Technology is a way to automatically run the processor core faster than the marked frequency if the part is operating under power, temperature, and current specification limits. When the Operating System requests a frequency higher than the maximum rated frequency of the processor, increased performance of both single and multi-threaded applications is observed. However, Intel Turbo Boost Technology does not last indefinitely. Whether the processor enters into Turbo Boost and the amount of time it spends in the boosted state, depends on the workload and operating environment. Some processors may not achieve maximum turbo frequencies when running heavy workloads and using multiple cores concurrently. The maximum overclock speed for this system is 3.6 GHz
    Intel Hyper-Threading Technology
    Intel Hyper-Threading Technology (Intel HT Technology) delivers two processing threads per physical core. Highly threaded applications can get more work done in parallel, completing tasks sooner
    Intel vPro Technology
    Intel vPro Technology is a set of security and manageability capabilities built into the processor that helps to address four areas of IT security:

    1) Threat management, including protection from rootkits, viruses, and malware
    2) Identity and web site access point protection
    3) Confidential personal and business data protection
    4) Remote and local monitoring, remediation, and repair of PCs and workstations
