HP Z2 Mini G1a

[OFFICIAL PRODUCT PAGE]

Thoughts & Facts

• the pricing varies dramatically: resellers in UK and Germany sell the 128G version for under 3600 USD
• the PC features the PRO version of the CPU, which allows for full memory encryption along with DASH and AiMT support (AMD KVM/Remote Management)
• the CPU can do short burst up to 160W, 120W is still the maximum for sustained load
• the cooling solution looks very similar to the Sixunited's one, but has a beefier heatsink and is considerably noisier
• ECC memory is an option (not default), however it's not clear if there are configurations with a proper ECC memory or it's just a standard DDR5 correction + ECC link (which exists on all Strix Halo systems)
• 10gbe option is Marvell AQC113
• m.2 "performance" option is Samsung PM9A1
