Overview
The HP Z600 packs eight-core compute and visualization power into a small, quiet package—for the ideal workstation when every inch, watt and decibel make a difference.

Features
• Engineered to perform: the HP Z600 is engineered to optimize the way processor, memory, graphics, OS and software technology work together to deliver massive, whole-system computational power.


• Sleek new industrial design: brushed aluminum, integrated handles and visually cable-less engineering are just a few of the new design features that create new standards for lowered acoustics, serviceability and energy efficiency.


• Designed with the environment in mind: minimize power and cooling costs with ENERGY STAR® qualified systems featuring 85% efficient power supplies and an HP-developed energy-saving feature that helps lower energy consumption in off mode.


• Revolutionary architecture: tackle bigger problems faster and process more tasks and threads in parallel with the new Intel® QuickPath Interconnect architecture and new Intel® Xeon® processors ¹ with integrated memory controllers.


• Compact and unassuming: enhance your work area with HP's quietest workstation, designed for environments where space is at a premium.


• Ease of service without comparison: the tool-free chassis and the uncluttered and highly streamlined internal design give you the ability to add or change components in mere seconds.


¹ Quad-Core processors are designed to improve performance of multithreaded software products and hardware-aware multitasking operating systems and may require appropriate operating system software for full benefits; check with software provider to determine suitability; not all customers or software applications will necessarily benefit from use of these technologies. 64-bit computing on Intel architecture requires a computer system with a processor, chipset, BIOS, operating system, device drivers and applications enabled for Intel® 64 architecture. Processors will not operate (including 32-bit operation) without an Intel 64 architecture-enabled BIOS. Performance will vary depending on your hardware and software configurations.
