Nvidia RTX 3500 Ada performance debut: HP ZBook Fury 16 G11 workstation review
The 2024 ZBook Fury 16 G11 succeeds the 2023 Fury 16 G10 by swapping out Raptor Lake-HX CPUs for newer Raptor Lake-HX Refresh options. Otherwise, the chassis remains identical to the Fury 16 G10 or Fury 16 G9 as do many of the configurable options. We recommend checking out our review on the Fury 16 G9 to learn more about the physical features of the model.
Our test unit is an upper-midrange configuration with the Core i9-14900HX CPU, RTX 3500 Ada GPU, and 120 Hz 3840 x 2400 IPS display for approximately $3300. Other SKUs start with the Core i5-13600HX up to the RTX 5000 Ada and 2400p OLED touchscreen. There are no Meteor Lake CPU options.
Competitors to the ZBook Fury 16 G11 include other 16-inch workstations like the Dell Precision 5690, Lenovo ThinkPad P16 G2, or Asus ProArt Studiobook 16.

Case
An easy way to distinguish the ZBook Fury 16 G11 from earlier iterations is to look for the Co-Pilot key on the keyboard. Otherwise, the chassis design remains the same as before.

Communication
WLAN has been upgraded from the Intel AX211 to the BE200 for proper Wi-Fi 7 support. In practice, however, most users will still be connecting to Wi-Fi 6 or 6E access points.
Webcam
Maintenance
HP has been boasting tool-less servicing for its Fury 16 series since the G9 model earlier last year. While the bottom panel would readily slide off without any tools, the RAM and SODIMM modules were still protected by an aluminum cover requiring a screwdriver to remove. This aluminum cover has been redesigned with latches instead of screws on the G11 model meaning that users can now install RAM modules without any tools at all.
The SSDs, however, are still secured to the motherboard with screws and so a screwdriver is still needed when swapping out drives. The system can support up to four SSDs and four RAM modules.
Sustainability
The packaging is fully recyclable and consists mostly of paper. The AC adapter is the only item that comes wrapped in plastic.
Accessories And Warranty
The retail box includes no extras beyond the AC adapter and paperwork. A three-year manufacturer warranty comes standard if purchased in the US.
Display
Five display options are available as follows. Our specific test unit comes with the bolded panel.
- 3840 x 2400, OLED, touchscreen, glossy, 400 nits, 100% DCI-P3, 60 Hz
- 3840 x 2400, IPS, non-touch, matte, 500 nits, 100% DCI-P3, 120 Hz
- 1920 x 1200, IPS, non-touch, matte, 400 nits, 100% sRGB, 60 Hz
- 1920 x 1200, IPS, non-touch, matte, 1000 nits, 100% sRGB, 60 Hz, Sure View Integrated
- 1920 x 1200, IPS, touchscreen, glossy, 400 nits, 100% sRGB, 60 Hz
This particular panel happens to be the same one that shipped with our ZBook Fury 16 G10 and so the visual experience remains identical. Buyers who intend to use the laptop outdoors may want to consider the 1000-nit option, but this panel is unfortunately tied to Sure View which significantly limits viewing angles to make the screen harder to share with others. Meanwhile, the OLED option will offer far superior black levels to cater to digital artists and multimedia editing applications, but its glossy overlay and meager 60 Hz refresh rate can be a turn off.
Windows dynamic refresh rate is supported only down to 60 Hz on our configured panel.

The display is well-calibrated against the P3 standard with average deltaE grayscale and color values of just 2 and 2.18, respectively. Calibrating the panel even further with our X-Rite colorimeter would improve accuracy only slightly to be mostly unnecessary for most users.

Performance — Higher Turbo Boost Potential
Testing Conditions
We set both Windows and MyHP to Performance mode prior to running the benchmarks below. We also disabled GPU ECC mode via Nvidia Control Panel.
Processor
Jumping from the Core i9-12950HX in the ZBook Fury 16 G9 to the Core i9-13950HX in the ZBook Fury 16 G10 brought significant performance gains. Unfortunately, the same can't be said when jumping from the Core i9-13950HX in the Fury 16 G10 to the Core i9-14900HX in our Fury 16 G11 configuration. The gains are much smaller by about 10 to 15 percent before accounting for any throttling. Once throttling is accounted for, overall processor performance would be essentially identical to the Core i9-13950HX as shown by our CineBench R15 xT loop test results below. The Core i9-14900HX utilizes the same underlying architecture as the Core i9-13950HX and so it can be considered a rebrand of last year's options. Thus, the higher Turbo Boost ceiling is its main advantage over the outgoing processor even if those higher Turbo Boost speeds are short-lived.
The Lenovo Legion 9 16IRX9, which ships with the same Core i9-14900HX as our HP, would run up to 20 percent faster likely due to its more capable cooling solution to sustain higher Turbo Boost clock rates.

Stress Test
When running Prime95 to stress the CPU, core clock rates and package power draw would spike to 3.7 GHz and 139 W, respectively, lasting for only a minute at most with core temperature also spiking to 99 C. The CPU would eventually settle at 2.3 GHz and 69 W in order to maintain a more manageable core temperature of 82 C. The relatively steep drop in performance over time leads to the progressively lower CineBench R15 xT loop scores noted above.
CPU and GPU temperatures when running higher loads like games would stabilize at nearly the same readings as what we recorded on last year's ZBook Fury 16 G10 despite their performance differences.
| Average CPU Clock (GHz) | GPU Clock (MHz) | Average CPU Temperature (°C) | Average GPU Temperature (°C) | |
| System Idle | -- | -- | 51 | 42 |
| Prime95 Stress | 2.2 - 2.6 | -- | 82 | 57 |
| Prime95 + FurMark Stress | 1.8 | 1995 | 81 | 65 |
| Cyberpunk 2077 Stress | 1.1 | 1845 | 81 | 69 |
System Performance
PCMark results are similar to what we recorded on last year's ZBook Fury 16 G10 to suggest that the ZBook Fury 16 G11 won't be running most day-to-day tasks any faster than its predecessor.
Keep in mind that maximum RAM speed is limited to just 4000 MT/s if configured with 128 GB of memory due to the limitations of the SODIMM standard. The model supports both ECC RAM and non-ECC RAM.

Storage Devices
Our test unit ships with the same 1 TB SK Hynix PC801 HFS001TEJ9X101N PCIe4 M.2 SSD as found on last year's ZBook Fury 16 G10. Unfortunately, the drive suffers from the same performance throttling issues as well. When running DiskSpd in a loop, transfer rates would start out very high at almost 7000 MB/s before falling to as low as 3400 MB/s just a few minutes later as shown by the graph below. This can be attributed to insufficient cooling for the drives, but that is perhaps the price to pay for supporting more individual drives than most on other laptops.

GPU Performance
Users can expect the RTX 3500 Ada to perform roughly 20 to 30 percent slower than the RTX 5000 Ada. Since Nvidia has not yet introduced a new generation of mobile GPUs, the ZBook Fury 16 G11 ships with the same GPU options as on last year's model for no noteworthy performance gains. The RTA 5000 Ada remains the fastest mobile workstation GPU available.

| Battery Power | 16618 (-43%) | 25118 (-32%) | 4101 (-65%) |
Running on Balanced mode instead of Performance mode would impact performance by up to 10 to 15 percent as shown by our Fire Strike table above. The performance deficit grows even larger if running on battery power which is to be expected from most high-performance laptops.

Gaming Performance
Though not designed for gaming, the RTX 3500 Ada performs slightly above mobile GeForce RTX 4070 but below the mobile RTX 4080 especially when taking a look at the number of unified pipelines, tensor cores, and memory bandwidth. Performance may nonetheless gradually slow over time when stressed as GPU boost speeds are not indefinite. When idling on Cyberpunk 2077 at 1080p Ultra settings, for example, performance would start out at just over 70 FPS before gradually declining to the low 60 FPS range after only 30 minutes as shown by the graph below.

Emissions
System Noise
Fan noise and behavior are about the same as what we recorded on last year's model if not slightly louder when running higher loads. The fans would still occasionally pulse when idling on desktop as well even when set to Balanced mode with no running applications. Worse yet, our specific unit suffers from noticeable coil whine that would persist throughout the entire testing period.

Energy Management
Power Consumption
The system is more efficient when idling on desktop compared to our ZBook Fury 16 G10 configuration. Otherwise, consumption becomes nearly the same when running more demanding loads such as games even though the configured GPUs are different between our two examples. Performance-per-watt therefore increases when selecting higher-end GPU configurations versus our midrange RTX 3500 Ada.
Consumption when running Prime95 or CineBench R15 xT would be noticeably higher on our unit when compared to last year's model due to the higher Turbo Boost potential of our Core i9-14900HX processor. After a minute or so, however, consumption would fall to be nearly in line with what we measured on last year's model as shown by the comparison graph below which aligns with our CineBench R15 xT loop observations from above. Thus, our higher initial Turbo Boost potential is the key advantage between the newer Core i9-14900HX and older Core i9-13950HX.
We're able to record a maximum consumption of 236 W from the large (~18 x 8.8 x 2.5 cm) 230 W AC adapter when the CPU and GPU are each at 100 percent utilization.

Battery Life
Runtimes are very similar to last year's ZBook Fury 16 G11 if not slightly shorter likely due to the higher Turbo Boost ceiling for the Raptor Lake-HX Refresh CPU. Competing models like the Precision 5690 or ThinkPad P16 G2 can each last at least an hour or so longer in comparison.
Charging from empty to full capacity with the included barrel AC adapter is relatively fast at just over 60 minutes.

Verdict — Strong Design Dragged Down By Limited Turbo Boost
We love the design of the ZBook Fury 16 G11. While it remains the same as the Fury 16 G9, its ease of servicing, wide configurable options, ECC RAM support, and comfortable keyboard and touchpad check off all the right boxes for workstation users.
Instead, the main problems with the ZBook Fury 16 G11 lie in its performance. When another laptop like the Lenovo Legion 9 16IRX9 can run the exact same Core i9-14900HX CPU up to 20 percent faster than our ZBook, then the cooling solution in the HP could definitely use an upgrade to support higher Turbo Boost speeds for longer. Similarly, the M.2 SSDs could benefit from heat spreaders for the same reason as they would also throttle when stressed. These limitations mar the benefits of the Core i9 CPU and PCIe4 SSD as they can potentially perform faster on competing machines from Dell or Lenovo.
The ZBook Fury 16 G11 is only a minor update over last year's ZBook Fury G10. Though it still looks and feels great, performance tends to throttle for heavier usage scenarios.
Lastly, it's a bit unfortunate that the model offers no Meteor Lake options for no local AI acceleration. Granted, such a feature likely only appeals to a small subset of workstation users, but it would have helped to further distinguish the Fury 16 G11 from the Fury 16 G10. You can get essentially the same performance and features from the barely one-year old Fury 16 G10 as you can on the latest Fury 16 G11.
Price and Availability
The ZBook Fury 16 G11 is currently shipping for around $3400 as configured with the Core i9-14900HX and RTX 3500 Ada up to over $5500 if fully configured with the RTX 5000 Ada.
