HP G9 SFF Overview

Built primarily with 3D designers and other creative professionals in mind, the Z2 G9 Small Form Factor Workstation from HP delivers all the power of a full sized tower at a fraction of the size. This compact system fits full-height, full-length graphics cards to handle intensive workflows such as 3D design and modeling with applications such as AutoCAD, complex real-time ray tracing in SOLIDWORKS, and simple rendering using SketchUp while leaving room for upgrades and expansion.
The Workstation for Your Workflow
  • Product Designers & Engineers - Get reliable performance when crafting 3D designs and models, outputting simple renders and simulations, and more with Autodesk Inventor, Autodesk Fusion, Creo, Solid Edge, and SOLIDWORKS.
  • Architects, Engineers & Construction Managers - Bring your 3D designs and models to life in addition to basic renders and simulations using SketchUp, Graphisoft, Vectorworks, AutoCAD, and Revit.
  • STEAM Educators - Certified for STEAM applications such as SOLIDWORKS, AutoCAD, and Revit, this compact workstation allows you to provide your students with the digital skills needed for careers in media, science, and technology.
Full Height, Full Length Performance
By taking advantage of the PCIe 4.0 bandwidth, the NVIDIA RTX A4000 is designed to deliver exceptional performance for professionals. Built on the NVIDIA Ampere architecture with 16GB of GDDR6 ECC RAM, this single slot graphics card delivers real-time ray tracing, AI-accelerated computing, and high-performance graphics. The four DisplayPort 1.4a outputs provide sharp, clear images with a maximum resolution of 7680 x 4320 at 60 Hz.
Powered by a 13th Gen Intel Core i9-13900K 24-Core processor and 32GB of 4800 MHz DDR5 memory, the Z2 G9 SFF delivers high performance for your intensive workflow. For storage of your files, the 1TB SSD uses the PCIe 4.0 x4 bus, and offers quick access to your data.
Expansion and Connectivity
Accelerate your current workflow with a multitude of upgrade options and I/O ports. Fitting full-height, full-length pro graphics, this system is designed to grow with you as your needs evolve.
Tool-less access to the system's interior allows you to customize your Z to fit your needs. Enhance performance when working on complex design tasks by installing up to 128GB of 4800 MHz DDR5 ECC memory across four DIMM slots. Three M.2 2280 NVMe PCIe 4.0 SSD slots support a total of 36TB, in addition to 3.5" drive bays. Add RAID configurations for increased performance and reliability.

Also inside is one PCIe 4.0 x16 slot, one PCIe 3.0 x4 slot, one PCIe 3.0 x4 slot with an x16 connector, and one PCIe Gen 3 x1 slot for compatible expansion cards. This system runs using a 550W power supply.

The Z2 G9 SFF features one 20 Gb/s USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type-C port with 5V / 3A of charging power, plus four 10 Gb/s USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports, three 5 Gb/s USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A ports, and three 480 Mb/s USB 2.0 Type-A ports. Network connectivity is achieved using an integrated Gigabit Ethernet port. A USB keyboard is included alongside a USB mouse and a power cord.
Keep Cool Under Any Workload
This compact system features an optimized cooling system that is designed to keep hardware components cool and quiet, even when running at max load 24/7.

  • Phase Change CPU Cooling - A liquid to gas and back to liquid cycle optimizes heat transfer, delivering higher performance and reliability compared to traditional liquid cooling solutions.
  • Fans & Venting - The 3D mesh air intake design reduces static air pressure to enhance airflow. At the same time, built-in sensors and algorithms detect when the system is heating up during intensive workloads and automatically activates fans to prevent overheating.
  • Unthrottled Performance - Integrated thermal technologies consistently keep the processor and graphics card cool to sustain maximum performance.
  • High Performance Mode - Customizable modes let you optimize your system according to your needs, ensuring peak performance for heavy workloads or providing reduced fan noise for quieter work environments.
Sustainable Design
HP Z2 systems are built using ocean-bound plastics, recycled metals, and highly efficient EPEAT Gold certified power supplies. Their packaging is also 100% sustainably sourced to help reduce the amount of hazardous materials in the environment.
Windows 11 Pro
Microsoft simplified the design and user experience with Windows 11. It has a modern, clean design with a new Start Menu position. Snap Layouts, Groups, and Desktops allow you to multitask with ease. Microsoft has also integrated some of their apps, such as Microsoft Teams. The redesigned Microsoft Store makes it easier to look for supported apps.

Does the 32GB of Ram come in ECC Ram? And can you add a thunderbolt 4 pcie card to the W680 chipset?
Asked by: Michael
The RAM in this computer is non-ECC, a configuration with ECC RAM is not available at this time. It will be possible to install a Thunderbolt 4 card in one of the Z2 G9's PCIe expansion slots.
