Will end up needing more RAM
I like running a lot of open windows, one of them being SolidWorks CAD software. Resources get a little stretched but I expected that.Very light weight system and boots up in seconds!

Not quite as good as what it replaced.
I have two HP ZBook laptops. One is an older G3 with 64GB RAM and a 12GB video card. I'm able to run 10 1K monitors off of it so I can spread out my work effectively.When the G3 had gone out of warranty for over a year, I replaced it with this laptop - an HP ZBook G9 with 128GB RAM and a 16GB video card. Mine has an i9 processor instead of the i7 shown here.I don't use either for games, but they do serve my programming needs, typically running over 50 simultaneous programs.Both laptops have HP Thunderbolt docks. The G3 has the old "candybar" style dock and the G9 has the newer "tall" dock.I expected the G9 to be able to address and run even more than the 10 1K monitors that my G3 runs. It tops out at 9 1K monitors. I have tried switching the Thunderbolt docks and even chaining the two docks together. The G9 maxes out at 9 monitors.I have a second workstation with 2 4K monitors and 3 1K monitors. Both laptops run this combination without issue.I give the G9 only 4 stars for the following reasons:1. It is less capable graphically than the laptop it replaced, according to what matters to me.2. It does away with the mouse buttons across the top of the trackpad, causing me to need to relearn many of my common gestures.3. It gets HOT, and the way the video card sits on the motherboard is a pin in pan fit, not pin in socket or card in slot. The pin in pan fit is highly susceptible to heat because either the motherboard or the video card flexes when heated and the lack of a friction fit plus flexing boards results in pins losing connection and blue screens of death. I can mitigate this using a cooler deck or fan that blows air underneath the laptop, but this isn't optimal. HP replaced the motherboard once under warranty, but it didn't solve the problem.What could HP do to make this better?Any workstation that is offered with a high-end graphics card should support a large screen worksurface. This one supports a smaller worksurface than its predecessor.Any workstation that is listed as a high-performance, development workstation should be able to properly cool itself and should retain its integrity under operating conditions.My G9 is 1.5 years old now and it's not the latest that HP offers. Hopefully their next iteration addresses the issues I encountered with the G9.
