Product: HP Z2 Mini G9 Workstation Desktop PC RCTO Base Model
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 11
I would appreciate it if responses could be limited to people who actually have experience with this system and it's limitations 🙂
For those that have used them before, what CPU would be the best to run in here? What about GPU?
Given the Linus Tech Tips review of this, I would think that any i9's are going to be out due to thermal and power throttling limitations.
Is there any way to get a PCIe power connector to a GPU? Or can only GPUs that are purely PCIe slot powered be used in here?
