Yeah, 128GB RAM and RTX Pro sounds crazy, but with these workstation laptops it's all about thermals and sustained performance. If it throttles under load, it won't really feel that much faster than something like the Lenovo ThinkPad P1 Gen 9 in real use.

A shame they have discontinued the premium ZBook Studio line and continue updating "value" workstations models like this.

"Value" at those specs? Congratulations on being rich!

That said, this is faster in theory only. Benchmarks will tell.

That's exactly the terminology HP uses in their marketing for this model. And these machines are generally bought by businesses with special volume deals not at retail price set for individuals.
