Product: HP Z8 G4 Workstation
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 11
Just recently picked up an HP Z8 G4 workstation and been upgrading it to use it daily. Well I'm like many others that have been experencing this issue where the stupid system freezes when it hits high temps. I put in 2x Xeon Platinum 8168 cpus in this unit, but every time I try to use them and the temps get up above 98c, the POS freezes everytime. What the heck is wrong with this stuid thing? I know others have had this issue, but I haven't found any solutions to stop this POS from freezing up. Hey HP, fix your stupid equipment or at least give us a solution? Would love to cuss at you, but your stupid system will not allow it.
