High-end GPU and CPU for a balanced machine
Depending on which renderer you're using, you'll either render on the CPU or the GPU. Increasingly, renderers are GPU-accelerated for real-time ray tracing, so a balanced machine is your best bet
Expandable memory for complex projects
To optimize performance, fill all memory channels. For example, Z8 has 6 memory channels per CPU slot — so you can fit up to 1.5TB of memory into a single machine.
Remote access and collaboration
Remote working is here to stay. With ZCentral Remote Boost,1 multiple people can remotely connect to the same machine, making it easy to collaborate and review progress in real-time.
Best Z by HP Workstations for Video Editing and Motion Graphics
Whether you're cutting together spots, shorts or features, you push your system to the max. That's why we've developed an extensive line of powerhouse devices to help you edit in less time so you can hit your deadlines.

Power to work with 4K & multi-camera workflows
While working on a single camera project, 6-8 core CPUs may be fine, for multi-camera projects and/or 4K material, make sure you have 12+ cores.
GPU-acceleration for rendering & encoding
Although most editing applications rely on the CPU, many rendering and encoding tasks are now GPU-accelerated. A good editing machine, then, should include a discrete graphics card.
Color accuracy for grading & final delivery
HP DreamColor displays are calibrated to a variety of color spaces — such as Rec 709 and DCI P3 — to match your delivery specifications.

Choice of GPUs for dev and QA
Gaming and the GPU go hand in hand so choose the graphics card most appropriate to your audience - Z workstations come with a choice of professional and consumer GPUs.
Balanced machine
Game development requires both CPU and GPU power for compiling and rendering, respectively. We recommend a mimimum of 8 cores on the CPU and at least a mid-range graphics card.
Expandable memory for complex projects
To optimize performance, fill all memory channels. For example, Z8 has 6 memory channels per CPU slot — so you can fit up to 1.5TB of memory into a single machine.
