Customer Ratings & Reviews

The HP Omen 35L is quite a box. Supporting WiFi 6 (802.11ax the high-efficiency wireless standard that offers up to 9.6 Gbps speeds). It has the latest Bluetooth 5.4 (still hard to find). It supports Gigabit Ethernet via a built-in RJ-45 port on the rear I/O panel (supporting 2.5GbE). It has the latest Zen Gen 4 Ryzen 7 8700F (4.1GHz Processor running upto 5 GHz, w/16MB Cache, 8-Cores (16-Threads)) for Powerful Performance.  Not to mention the latest GeForce RTX 5070 with 12GB GDDR7 Dedicated Graphic memory.  It's VR Ready with a single 32GB DDR5 (6000MT) DIMM (can support up to 128 GB).  It has a 850W Power Supply.  And very attractive RGB Lighting.  It includes a gen 4, 1TB PCIe NVMe SSD.  It has 4 USB 2.0 ports and 2 USB 3.2 Type-C ports.  It can drive 4 monitors via a single HDMI port and 3 Display Ports.  It has a Headphone/Microphone Combo Jack, and Audio In/Out ports.  It has Windows 11 Home (64) installed.  The left side of the case has a large glass panel on the side which allows you to see in.  The quality of the internal cable routing is exceptional.  It has 2 PCIe NVMe slots, the second is under the RTX 5070 ( yes it has to be removed to access the second slot (not that difficult, I added a second 1TB SSD).  There are 2 SATA ports, but only a tool less drive holder for a single 3.5" HDD (with space for a second but no drive holder).  When HDD drive prices come back down to earth, I plan to add a 24TB drive for backup (might add 2 - SATA RAID configurations are technically possible with software-based RAID via Windows or BIOS-level RAID configuration). The HP Omen 35L is a very well-cooled gaming PC that provides excellent 3K/4K performance. And what surprised me the most was how whisper quiet it is.  Having had many other gaming systems I was expecting the whirl of server style fans.  But it's exceedingly quiet until you push the GPU with modern games. It uses industry-standard parts to make upgrading easy.  The system starts very fast and runs very quietly. It's handled everything I've thrown at it without any slowdown. Games run smoothly on high settings, and multitasking feels effortless with the installed 32GB of DDR5 RAM (which I'd planned to upgrade to 64GB or more eventually).  I plan to eventually run a Web Server and SQL Server in virtual machines, but I'm having a tough time adjusting to today's memory prices.  I've been using a "UFO" gaming laptop, which was quite expensive.  This Omen absolutely blows it away in terms of smoothness and the ability to drive multiple monitors at the same time (I'm using 3, one widescreen, and two 3K 27" monitors). I edit a lot of Astrophotography which requires stacking hundreds of 20-30Mb images (.fits files).  I thought my laptop was doing a pretty great job (processing 500 images in 30 minutes).  Well this Omen cut that job down to just over 19 minutes (the improved GPU helps, but it's a huge amount of data that is processed); the latest Ryzen 7 is truly an exceptional processor.   I play all new modern games in 1440P with well over 150fps hitting 220fps on high settings.  Depending on the package you get it may or may not come with a keyboard and a mouse; which is fine by me as I end up with my own gaming mouse and programmable mechanical keyboard anyhow.
