Hi.
I'm currently in the market for a new high end image and video editing and converting workstation.
I already did my homework regarding the hardware that works best with my needs and budget and came up with this spec for HP Z840 Workstation:
HP Z840 Microsoft Windows Workstation F5G73AV
HP Z840 1125W (1450W/200V) 90 Percent Efficient Chassis G8X50AV
HP Z840 Country Kit F5G74AV#ABA
ENERGY STAR Qualified Configuration G8U73AV
No Integrated Graphics G8U74AV
2TB 7200 RPM SATA 1st Hard Drive J3K73AV
2TB 7200 RPM SATA 2nd Hard Drive J3K94AV
Operating System Load to PCIe J9N95AV
HP Z Turbo Drive Quad Pro 512GB 1st Solid-State Drive (SSD) P0Q96AV
HP Wireless Keyboard and Mouse G8U77AV#ABA
HP 15-In-1 Media Card Reader G8U83AV
No Included Mouse XU933AV
Windows 7 Professional 64-bit (available through downgrade rights from Windows 10 Pro) N2G58AV#ABA
9.5mm Slim SuperMulti DVDRW SATA 1st Optical Disc Drive F5G79AV
HP Single Unit Packaging G8U92AV
Intel(R) Xeon(R) E5-2643v3 3.4 2133 6C 1st CPU J6F68AV
Intel(R) Xeon(R) E5-2643v3 3.4 2133 6C 2nd CPU J6F87AV
192GB DDR4-2133 (12x16GB) 2CPU Registered RAM K8F84AV
Windows 7 Professional 64-bit OS DVD + Driver DVD G9P47AV#ABA
HP Dual Processor Air Cooling Kit G8X89AV
HP 3/3/3 Warranty F5G83AV#ABA
To that i'll want to add GTX 980Ti 3-Way SLI.
My only concern is that the PSU is too week and lack the required connectors to hold the graphics cards array.
What do you think?
