@mcbo1,

 

Welcome to our HP User Forum!

 

At least based on real-world HP Z400 Workstation User benchmarks as seen here: UserBenchmark: HP Z400 Workstation Compatible Components, it appears to me that the Xeon W3680 (3.33 GHz up to 3.60 GHz, 6-Cores, 12-Threads, 130-watt TDP) performs best, such as this User example: HP Z400 Workstation Performance Results - UserBenchmark.

 

Hope this was helpful.

 

Kind Regards,

 

NonSequitur777
