A:AnswerYes you can control all these lighting options using the HP Omen Gaming Hub. It comes pre-installed. I believe you can also access these features using other apps like HP Lighting Assist but I recommend just using the Omen Gaming Hub.
A:AnswerIt has both dedicated and integrated graphics:
By the listed specs, the processor (CPU) appears to have integrated graphics, so even if the Dedicated 5070 GPU were to fail, you could troubleshoot by using the onboard HDMI port (provided the motherboard has the needed connector). Without physically seeing the unit, I can't determine if the integrated HDMI port is present on the MOBO even though the CPU supports it.
A:AnswerNo.
You might be able to buy a specialty case, or turn this case upside down (with protection if there are vents on the top) but virtually all motherboards are designed in the same orientation, so it is unlikely.
A:AnswerThere are anecdotal reports on Reddit with photos of people successfully installing a 9600x and 9700x, apparently they worked after the F.09 rev.A BIOS update that explicitly states a fix for the Granite Ridge (9000 series) Hangup at power on. I don’t know if that means all 9000 series would work, but apparently at least some are. The HP spec sheet for the Wolant 8C4F motherboard is clearly outdated since they’re shipping units with the 8700F, which is not listed as compatible with that motherboard.
A:AnswerRyan, thank you for your question about the board for this HP Omen gaming desktop! The HP Wolant board has a CPU TDP of 65 watts and uses an AM5 socket.
A:AnswerHi Ryan, thank you for asking. The HP OMEN 35L GT16-0364 uses the Wolant motherboard (SSID: 8CF4), which is compatible with specific AM5 processors. Currently, the Ryzen 7 8700G is the recommended upgrade for this model.
