I understand these HP Z computers are solid builds. If you ever have a chance to lift a HP Z 800, it's definitely a brick. Also remember not to be locked into the HP Z; when you arrive, look for a system with Windows 11 CPU issues if replacement is necessary. You might want to clear that from your future if HP Z 440 CPUs appear on the non-approved Microsoft official list for Windows 11. But keep in mind, if you decide to replace the PC and it's the right path, ensure the CPU is compliant or the Windows 11 approval matters. If you're comfortable with Windows and these HP Z models work well around them, you could avoid future problems.
