When HP invited Intel® into our lab, we showed them the architecture that will become the pervasive 64-bit architecture of the 21st century. They shared our vision and together we invented the Itanium™ processor family specification. The HP Workstation i2000 is the first HP to be equipped with Itanium processors.

The HP Workstation i2000 excels, offering highly competitive floating point performance and leading secure e-commerce performance in the first generation. The Itanium processor's parallelism allows many instructions to be executed at once when working with optimized code.

Choose either an economical entry-level uniprocessor 733MHz configuration, ideal for application development or a dual processor 800MHz configuration that is ideal for Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) and Mechanical Computer Aided Design (MCAD), life sciences, secure web serving, and Digital Content Creation (DCC).

HP lets you choose the OS that best meets your need for your HP i2000. The HP Workstation i2000 is your first step into the future of computing, with 3 leading 64-bit operating systems available:

  • HP-UX 11i v1.5 (media included at no extra charge)
  • Windows® XP 64-bit Edition (media included at no extra charge)
  • Red Hat® Linux 7.2 for the Intel Itanium processor

    Furthermore, the HP Workstation i2000 is the only system that offers binary compatibility for PA-RISC and IA-32 applications without the need for a recompile.

    Itanium processors bring new levels of parallelism to the desktop

  • 2MB of L2 cache ensures efficient low-latency performance
  • fast memory I/O allows a peak bandwidth of 4.2GB/s

    HP knows the Itanium architecture better than anyone, and HP offers the strongest support services to help you to port and optimize your applications seamlessly and quickly. Be ready for the next generation of Itanium performance before your competitors.
