Q: Does this laptop have touch screen?
A: Yes, the screen can be touched. However, it doesn't respond just like my wife. |: PS: It is a regular screen with no touch input
Q: Can you upgrade the 16GB of Memory to 32 or even 64GB of Memory or is that simply not possible?
A: I put in G.SKILL Ripjaws SO-DIMM 64GB Model F5-5600S4040A32GX2-RS. it works. This omen (16-xf0033dx) recognizes the 64G ram immediately and runs at 5600
Q: Does this have 2 nvme slots? I've read conflicting answers here in the questions section.
A: Yes. One slot has an NVME drive installed and the other is empty for you to add additional storage. Easy to access and install as well.
Q: Does it have upgradable storage or extra storage slots?
A: I have hp omen 16-xf0033dx. I can confirm it has two gen 4 ssd slots
Q: Does it have power delivery PD ? Can we also charge the laptop's battert through its usb c port?
A: i tried plugging a powered usb c into mine it did not charge the battery in either port
Q: The laptop comes with 16gb of RAM, is that 1 stick of 16 or 2 sticks of 8?
A: Hello Kevin, and thank you for your question. The HP 16-xf0033dx Omen laptop has 2 sticks of 8 gig RAM.
Q: Does the laptop have a MUX switch?
A: Yes it does! Users can switch between the GPU and integrated graphics using the MUX switch on the HP Omen 16!
A: I couldn't find any DDR5-5600 SODIMM memory on best buy's site presently, but I ordered this from an alternative store: CT2K16G56C46S5 Crucial Ram 32GB kit - it worked well in my laptop. I also ordered a stick of SN850X SSD without a heatsink from Best buy with my purchase. There's an available slot which includes an aluminum heatsink already inside of the laptop. There may not be enough clearance if you purchase an SSD with a heatsink. I hope this helps, cheers!

Runs Fast And Runs Cool
I have always been an intel CPU fan; however, the Ryzen 9 CPU in this laptop along with the Nvidia 4070 RTX Graphics card is an amazing combination. I play World of Warcraft on maximum settings, turned up to 10 in game graphics quality at 1080P. Even after hours of playing, the thermals on this laptop are impressive. No overheatingh. The screen quality is very nice with no light bleeding. I haven’t tested the wireless card in the laptop. I added a second hard drive, a WD 1000GB SSD, for data storage. The stock 512 SSD is perfect as a boot drive, but won’t be enough storage for most gamers. Fortunately HP Omen provided a second SSD slot for easy upgrades. The SSD it comes with is also upgradable. I havn’t upgraded the memory yet, but it’s nice to see two RAM slots for full memory upgradability if I ever want to. I am finding the current 16GB is sufficient. There is some confusion on the upgradability of this laptop, so I”ll clear up the confusion now. This laptop is made by HP Omen just for Best Buy. This model actuall has two accessable RAM slots, and two accessable SSD slots. The wireless card is also upgradable. I highly recommend this laptop for the AAA gamer, or anyone who needs a powerful, reliable laptop.

Performs Great, Feels Great, and Professional.
Absolute best Laptop I have ever owned. For Starters- This laptop looks fantastic. In my opinion most gaming laptops look tacky and cheap with all the rainbow colors and bright lights going on. This bad boy will fit right in at the office, at the hotel, at business conferences, and other professional environment. The display is better than my LG Gaming monitors that I run on my desktop. This thing is fast. I run Solid Works and Fusion 360 CAD programs on it. It renders quickly. It also handles some games such as Rust, Ark, Bellwright, and The Finals very well. I have not tested on something intense like Baldurs Gate but I would imagine it could handle them with a decent frame rate for an enjoyable experience on a laptop while on vacation or out of town for work.
