- HP Z8 Fury G6i supports up to four Nvidia RTX PRO GPUs
- Next-generation Intel Xeon processors offer up to 86 cores and 174 threads
- Memory scales up to 2TB DDR5-6400 ECC across 16 DIMM slots
HP recently unveiled a number of new high-performance systems at its latest product showcase, but one device seems to dominate the conversation.
The HP Z8 Fury G6i stands out as the company’s most aggressive attempt yet to tackle heavy AI and simulation workloads without compromise.
This system supports up to four Nvidia RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell GPUs, combined with next-generation Intel Xeon processors, scalable up to 86 cores and 174 threads, with boost frequencies reaching 4.8 GHz and large cache allocations.

Extreme processing power
This setup allows you to handle complex renderings, large-scale simulations, and demanding AI development tasks.
“Technology and high-performance workflows are evolving faster than ever,” said Jim Nottingham, senior vice president and president of the Advanced Compute Solutions division.
“HP Z Workstations are designed to equip the best and brightest professionals with the tools they need for specialized workflows and AI at the edge, while giving IT decision makers the ability to responsibly scale performance.”
The hardware goes beyond the typical limits of workstations, especially as memory and data requirements continue to increase.
It supports up to 2TB of DDR5-6400 ECC memory across 16 DIMM slots and eight memory channels, enabling data-intensive AI workflows without constant bottlenecks.
This device supports an optional HP Max side panel that expands the chassis, increasing internal volume and allowing larger graphics cards to fit without modifications.
It’s an industry-first feature because it physically extends the width of the workstation to accommodate quad-width GPUs and up to 600W.
The tool-free design solves a practical problem because some users had to cut open workstation panels just to install large graphics cards, so this will no longer be necessary.
“It increases airflow and temperature by 15%,” added Nottingham, noting that GPU power requirements continue to increase with each generation.
The HP Z8 Fury G6i features a data center-style architecture with up to 104TB of storage in multiple NVMe configurations, including front-access and hot-swappable drives.
It offers nine PCIe slots, including PCIe 5.0 x16 lanes, for additional accelerators, network cards or storage controllers.
Dual power supplies up to 2700W provide stable performance under heavy workloads.
For connectivity, this device includes Thunderbolt 5, Hi-Speed USB, Wi-Fi 7, and up to 100GbE networking.
HP’s workstation lineup also includes the Z4 G6i desktop and ZBook X G2i and ZBook 8 G2i mobile models.
It also offers hybrid systems, including HP ZGX Nano and ZGX Fury, which combine local computing with cloud resources.
The HP Z8 Fury G6i is expected to be available on HP.com starting in April 2026, with pricing to be provided closer to availability.
