🔍 Model Highlights – Z8 G5 vs Z8 Fury G5

HP Z8 G5 :
Powerful dual-socket performance featuring two Intel Xeon Gold/Scalable CPUs (up to 32 cores total), up to 1 TB DDR5 ECC memory, and support for two high-end GPUs like the NVIDIA RTX A6000. It offers massive storage capacity (up to 136 TB) across six M.2 and six 3.5″ drive bays. Excellent expansion is supported via seven PCIe Gen 5/4 slots and dual front NVMe bays. The system includes robust security (TPM 2.0, full volume encryption), industrial-grade reliability with 24/7 testing, and a standard power supply up to 1,700 W
HP Z8 Fury G5 :
The top-tier variant built on Intel’s workstation platform with Xeon W‑series CPUs—up to the 56‑core Xeon W‑9‑3495X—delivering single-socket performance with optional multi-core scalability. It doubles the memory cap of the Z8 G5 (up to 2 TB DDR5 ECC) and supports up to four double-width GPUs, ideal for intensive graphics workloads. Includes similar storage and expansion features: six M.2 plus up to six HDD bays, and seven PCIe Gen 5/4 slots. Power support ranges up to 2,250 W redundant PSUs. Additionally, Fury G5 offers more powerful cooling solutions and extended warranty (3 – 5 years)
