Like a number of other companies, HP today is announcing a new line of notebooks using Intel’s 11th Gen Core H-series CPUs. While Intel’s announcement focused mostly on the gaming prowess of these new CPUs, HP’s new lineup of notebooks is targeted more toward professionals and content creators who need a powerful laptop to do their work. While full specifications haven’t been announced yet, HP’s announcement covers the major talking points for each of these three laptops.
HP today announced the ZBook Studio G8, the ZBook Fury G8, and the ZBook Power G8. All of these are designated as mobile workstations, though judging from the hardware they use, they’d also be perfectly suitable for gaming – perhaps even a little overkill depending on what kind of gaming you’re planning on doing.

The fact that semiconductors are crucial to global manufacturing has gotten a lot more attention this year. Side effects from the U.S.-China trade war and the coronavirus pandemic contributed to a global shortage of chips, which has chipmakers and their customers scrambling lately to meet demand. It s a good time to be a semiconductor investor.
While Intel is undergoing a major shakeup in its manufacturing strategy, the company has been in the midst of other major changes for how it makes CPUs.
For the past few years, the company has been revealing new methods and approaches for designing and manufacturing processors. This includes incorporating different kinds of cores in a single processor, moving to tile-based chip designs and using new packaging technologies for bringing all the components together.
Pat Gelsinger, the company veteran who became Intel’s CEO in February, underlined the importance of these new approaches in helping the company return to “unquestioned leadership” for CPUs by 2024 or 2025 during his March 23 address on the company’s new IDM 2.0 strategy.
