HP’s new thin client with 4K support

HP Inc has announced the world’s first thin client with native quad UHD/4K display support for breakthrough graphics performance. The HP t730 Thin Client is equipped with next-generation quad-core AMD processing power.
The new performance leader in the HP Thin Client lineup empowers businesses to work in the content-hungry environment they want, without add-ons, extras or options. The HP t730 excels in this emerging market for customers in high-performance sectors, like financial services, oil/gas, digital media, and engineering, with an easy and secure solution to drive their heavy content needs.
As display resolutions and screen sizes increase, hybrid computing scenarios are driving new demand for local client processing power. According to IDC, the Virtual Client Computing market expects a five- year CAGR of 7,7%.
“As more businesses move their most demanding users and apps to virtual computing, we’ve responded by combining cloud-client technology and workstation innovation in one revolutionary platform. The HP t730 Thin Client gives our customers a secure, reliable endpoint for virtual workstation use cases,” says Gwen Coble, director: commercial solutions and retail solutions EMEA at HP Inc.
Supporting more displays than the average desktop PC, the HP t730 natively drives four displays at the new UHD/4K resolution standard, and six displays with an optional AMD FirePro discrete graphics card. Multimedia is presented in eye-popping detail that translates to a staggering 8,294-million total pixels. The AMD R-Series quad-core APU with Turbo Core technology accelerates CPU performance up to 3.6 GHz to run the most demanding workstation-class apps, and render high-frame rate video to connected displays.
