HP Z6 G5 A Tower Workstation

HP Z6 G5 A Tower Overview

The Z6 G5 A Tower Workstation from HP is a powerhouse for virtual production, 3D rendering, and AI and machine learning. The system can be configured with up to 96 cores in a single CPU and multiple GPUs, enabling users to simultaneously create and render intensive projects.

Powered by a 4.5 GHz AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO 7955WX 16-Core processor and 32GB of 5600 MHz DDR5 ECC RAM, which can be upgraded to 1TB, the Z6 G5 A can easily handle demanding professional and memory-intensive workloads. For storage of your files, this system is equipped with a 1TB NVMe PCIe 4.0 x4 SSD with an M.2 2280 form factor. If you want to add external storage drives, optical drives, printers, memory card readers, or other peripherals, there are ten 5 Gb/s USB-A 3.2 Gen 1 ports, one of which supports device charging. For users who wish to add additional components to the drive bays, the Z6 G5 A features two PCIe 5.0 x4 and two PCIe 4.0 x4 slots for M.2 storage, plus an external 5.25" drive bay that can accommodate four M.2 drives using a CRU carrier. Additional internal expansion may be accomplished using four PCIe 5.0 x16 slots, one PCIe 4.0 x16 slot, and one PCIe 4.0 x4 slot.

The dedicated NVIDIA RTX A2000 graphics card has 12GB of GDDR6 RAM and delivers a sharp, clear picture, while allowing for multiple simultaneous displays to be used via its four mini DisplayPort 1.4a outputs at resolutions up to 7680 x 4320 @ 120 Hz. The Z6 G5 Series Tower Workstation includes a USB keyboard, a USB mouse, a power cord, and a 1-year subscription to HP Wolf Pro Security Edition. The installed operating system is Windows 11 Pro for Workstations (64-bit).
