Rated 1 out of 5 by unhappy camper99 from Horrible service I bought this a month ago and have been waiting on a tech support line for AN HOUR ... I've been transferred 3 times because someone keeps saying its a "business laptop". Spoken to two different people went through serial number roulette and still sitting on hold. I just want to know why my machine doesn't have the USB-C in the front LIKE THE PHOTO SHOWS!

Rated 3 out of 5 by Scott10 from Easy Setup But A Little Noisy I transitioned from older laptop to this desktop, expecting quieter and faster operations. The HP desktop is surprisingly noisier than my laptop and cannot see any increase in speed (HP has much better specs than old laptop). I've only had it going for two weeks. Setup process did go extremely well.

Rated 5 out of 5 by George Mc from Solid choice It replaces a Windows 10 PC that had started to have issues. The PC is virtually noiseless and the processor and graphics card temperatures are far cooler than temps on the replaced computer. Windows 11 and copilot perform well. The.Wolf security software package is NOT cumbersome and doesn’t interrupt what I am doing. All programs and files ported easily.

Rated 5 out of 5 by PPH Sr. from RELIEF! Machine functions very well after a few start-up issues. Video cabling between my existing HP HDMI display and the NVIDIA output ports required a call to HP Tech Support, but was then quickly resolved with the correct cable purchased locally.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Raphael77 from Poor communiton in Setup and Customer Service After computer arrived I connented the monitor to the dsplay port after purchasing a HDMI to Display play port at Walmart. At the start the computer wiith 16 MB ram worked very slow, so 48 MB of memory, the system speed increased. A few days later it would not power on, after several attempt to self help on HP support site which would not add the computer to my Dash Board because it could not find their own page for my system. I called tech support, the Rep. advised me to remove the NVIDIA graphics card, and after reinstalling the Windows 11 operating system on my own, computer works fine. At no time was I informed that I need to plug the monitor to the mini-display port on the Graphics card. Quick setup says connect monitor to computer, not to graphics card. This is not my first rodeo, I have been using HP computers for over 20 years, they make good computers. Customer Service is and has been an issue for the past few year.s

Do these have an integrated video card with an output (if so what kind DP or HDMI?) as well as the dedicated Nvidia?

Asked by: Auggie01
Hello. Thanks for your question. It will depend on which graphics card you choose with this HP Z2 Tower G9 Workstation. The NVidia RTX A2000, T1000, and T400 all feature mini DisplayPort 1.4 connectors—four on the A2000 and T1000, and three on the T400. However, the RTX A4000 has four standard DisplayPort 1.4 connectors instead. 2 DisplayPort 1.4 ports are on the Intel\ UHD Graphics 770 option.
