The HP Z2 Mini Computer System Does CAD Modeling and More

— December 3, 2016 — Tech
Many miniature PCs on the market are great for saving space but often don't provide enough power to do many digital tasks, so the HP Z2 Mini computer system is created to help end this struggle.

The HP Z2 Mini comes packed with up to 32GB of RAM and a choice between three different kinds of Intel CPUs including the i3, i5 or the i7. Up to 1.5TB of solid-state drive storage can be outfitted on the PC, while a custom cooling system enables it to run considerably more quiet than other units from the brand. The system can handle up to six different displays being hooked up to it without skipping a beat.

The HP Z2 Mini computer system is priced starting at $699.
Trend Themes
1. Mini PC Revolution - The rise of high-powered miniature PCs proffers opportunities for companies that develop innovative computer cooling systems, and for businesses that need reduced electricity consumption.
2. Multi-display Stability - The ability of mini PCs to support multiple displays creates opportunities for businesses seeking enhanced productivity tools, and for video game developers and enthusiasts.
3. Compact CAD Modeling - Mini PCs aimed at CAD modeling create opportunities for professionals who are on the move. The lightweight and compact design can enable architects or engineers to work on 3D modeling projects in the field.
Industry Implications
1. Computer Hardware Manufacturing - Manufacturing companies designing mini PCs with large amounts of RAM and storage, as well as custom cooling solutions have a chance to offer businesses looking for reduced energy consumption and compact PC designs.
2. Computer Software Development - Software developers are able to produce software tailored to specific workflows and industries that maximize the potential of smaller PCs, such as specialized CAD modeling software.
3. Engineering and Architecture Firms - Engineering and architecture firms using mini PCs focused on CAD modeling can enable professionals to work off-site while retaining access to powerful machinery and the ability to work on 3D modeling projects.
