Product Features
Technical Overview
At its core, the Z2 G9 utilizes the Intel Core i5-14500 processor, a 14th Gen chip with a base clock of 2.60 GHz and support for the LGA-1700 socket. This CPU is paired with the Intel W680 chipset, which provides stability and I/O management for workstation workloads. Memory is configured as a single 16GB DDR5 module running at 4800 MHz, with a maximum capacity of 128GB to accommodate memory-intensive applications.
Storage is handled by a 512GB PCI Express 4.0 SSD, offering significantly faster data transfer rates compared to SATA-based drives. The Serial ATA/600 controller supports RAID 0 and RAID 1 configurations for data redundancy or performance striping. Graphics are managed through shared system memory, suitable for professional applications that do not require discrete GPU acceleration. Connectivity includes 10 USB ports, DisplayPort output, and integrated Ethernet for network access.
