According to HP, the Z2 Mini G5 is the “The World’s Fastest GPU Rendering Mini Workstation” allowing you to save 40 minutes each hour.
“Enjoy seamless Zoom calls, edit heavy PowerPoint while running Adobe or Autodesk apps,” HP says. With the 10-core CPUs, you should be able to “get fast speeds for single and multithreaded apps.” In addition to that, the workstation comes with the NVIDIA Quadro RTX 3000 for “optimal” performance according to HP. “Z2 Mini G5 demolished every test including gaming with 2.5X improvement gen over gen.”
Design
The Z2 Mini G5 comes with a new thermal design. The workstation’s thermal design uses copper and delivers 1.4X CPU and 3X better CPU performance.

Z2 Small Form Factor G5
Moving on from the Z2 Mini G5, the Z2 Small Form Factor G5, HP says this workstation has “blazing-fast 3D visualization” yet at the same time being 19 percent smaller. Also, it features the Intel 125W 10-core processors and up to NVIDIA Quadro RTX 3000 custom MXM graphics.
As you can probably guess, the Z2 Small Form Factor G5’s form factor is an important factor to the workstation. It’s a lot smaller than the previous generation (19 percent as stated above). However, while it has a small form factor, it still offers 450W PSU, the world’s highest wattage power supply in a small form factor desktop workstation.
