HP Z2 Mini G3 Desktop Workstation

Made by and for design professionals, such as CAD users, the Z2 Mini G3 Desktop Workstation from HP delivers power, performance, versatility, and reliability in a small and elegant design. At 2.3" high, it is 90% smaller than a traditional business-class tower. The Z2 Mini has been tested for 368,000 hours and certified for over 20 professional software applications, such as AutoCAD, Vectorworks, MicroStation, Inventor, SOLIDWORKS, Solid Edge, and Revit.

The system is powered by a 3.5 GHz Intel Xeon E3-1245 v5 Quad-Core processor that will allow you to run multiple applications simultaneously. If you need more power, the system can be overclocked to 3.9 GHz using Intel's Turbo Boost 2.0 technology. The 16GB of 2400 MHz DDR4 RAM helps to ensure smooth multitasking and also allows the computer to quickly access frequently-used files and programs. While the current memory configuration is 2 x 8GB, the two 260-pin SO-DIMM memory slots allow the RAM to be upgraded to 32GB, using a 16GB chip in each of the two slots.

For long term storage of your files, a 512GB Z Turbo Drive G2 M.2 PCIe SSD offers quick access to your data. If you want to add external storage drives or other peripherals, the Z2 Mini features two USB 3.0 Type-C and four USB 3.0 Type-A ports, with one of the Type-A ports doubling as a charging port. For users who wish to add additional components or upgrade the existing drive bays, the Z2 has one 2.5" / 9.5mm SATA drive bay that accepts HDDs and SSDs. The dedicated NVIDIA Quadro M620 graphics has 2GB of DDR3 RAM and delivers a sharp, clear picture using its four DisplayPort 1.2 outputs, each of which supports a maximum resolution of 4096 x 2160 x 30 bpp @ 60 Hz, as well as High Bit Rate 2 (HBR2) and Multi-Stream Transport (MST). Whether you are listening to music, watching a movie, or playing a game, the integrated Realtek HD ALC221-VB audio controller outputs high definition audio and delivers higher fidelity than standard audio controllers.

The Z2 Mini G3 Desktop Workstation can either be placed on a flat surface, mounted behind a display, or under a desk. It includes a power cord and runs using a 200W external power supply that is 89% efficient and operates using 100-240 VAC at 50-60 Hz. While the installed operating system is Windows 7 Professional (64-bit), a Windows 10 Professional (64-bit) license and media is included.
