Second processors are an ideal solution for customers working with large designs, complex analysis, scientific modeling, or who are simply running a number of applications at once.

HP offers dual-core, dual-processing solutions from both AMD and Intel. All HP second processors come ready for 64-bit computing, but can also accommodate 32-bit applications.

HP second processors have the same chipset, hardware, and drivers as the primary processor thereby ensuring compatibility and optimal performance.

Adding more memory to a system is one of the most cost effective ways to improve system performance.  It allows for:

• Faster start-up times with fewer delays during routine operations
• Easy toggling between several open applications
• Ease of use for ISV software applications that demand a lot of memory bandwidth

Why buy HP memory? HP memory offers high reliability and quality to minimize the risk of downtime. HP tests and certifies all memory for increased performance on all running aspects of the machine. HP memory is also guaranteed for the life of the workstation. Last, adding HP memory ensures that memory characteristics match when upgrading in the future.

HP offers a multitude of sizes of SATA, SCSI and SAS drives and removable hard drive enclosures to provide you with the storage solution that fits best.  Upgrading to a larger—or adding an additional—hard drive can provide you with the following:

• Better reliability and performance
• Faster data transfer speeds
• A better airflow cooling system
• More bandwidth
• Better data integrity

HP hard drives utilize leading industry technology with Self-Monitoring Analysis and Reporting Technology (SMART) and native command queuing. HP tests and certifies our hard drives for greater performance and decreased risk of failure.

HP offers a full array of high performance graphics cards from NVIDA and ATI from entry-level graphics accessories for corporate and financial applications in 2D to high-end graphics cards with 500 MB of memory or more for working with MCAD and DCC applications in 3D.

Why choose HP?

HP graphics cards are certified by workstation ISV application providers, which means that they are guaranteed to work with your applications, and packaged with unified graphics drivers to ensure compatibility between the system, graphics card and applications. HP graphics cards have a warranty for the life of the workstation and have dedicated support, not only from HP, but also from the graphics vendor. 

HP offers choice: Best-of-breed products from NVIDIA Quadro and ATI FireGL graphic cards:

• Corporate and Financial applications
• Supports up to 4 displays
• 2D environment

• MCAD and DCC Applications
• Supports multiple displays and s-video out
• 512 MB of memory on the board
• 3D environment

HP Workstations come equipped with the ability to accommodate as many as eight displays at once—for a very good reason: you can see more and do more. Studies show that multiple monitors can help improve productivity for regular office automation computing.

How can dual monitors benefit you?  Whether you are plowing through tedious administrative tasks or rotating 3D images while comparing specifications on the latest product, multiple monitors make the most of your online real estate and data manipulation. Different applications can be opened separately on individual screens improving your productivity. Because the screens are physically separated by the monitor’s bezels, the applications are immediately mentally compartmentalized—and you can maximize each application on each screen.

In addition, deploying multiple monitors instead of a single display with your HP Workstation will help you with:

• Task tracking
• Moving around information sources
• Increasing speed of task performance
• Improving your task focus

HP has a wide selection of USB- and PS/2-compatible scroll mice and optical mice. Depending on the number of ports you have available and the task that you need to accomplish, you can employ the appropriate input device for your needs. Go beyond the basics of the standard mouse with a device that can improve your productivity by 30%—the HP SpacePilot from 3Dconnexion.

The HP SpacePilot provides intelligent control with refined sensing technology, extendable speed keys and an ergonomic design. It supports 100+ applications including a full list of profession 3D and productivity applications. This device can increase user productivity by reducing mouse movements by up to 50%—also reducing the risk of carpal tunnel issues for the user. Customers who buy their SpacePilots from HP can utilize some of the integrated technologies of their HP workstation.

As with all of HP’s products and services, we strive to deliver above and beyond your expectations with our options and accessories offerings. Software that helps enhance your ROI includes:

• Performance Tuning Framework: The Performance Tuning Framework software on HP workstations will monitor the health of the system and your HP SpacePilot to ensure both are operating at their optimal performance.
