Q: Questionwhat are the RAM timings and how many lanes does the SSD have

Asked 2 months ago by chris.

• A:Answer ✅ RAM Timings (HP OMEN 35L – Ryzen 7 8700F, 32GB DDR5) HP almost always uses JEDEC‑standard DDR5, not XMP/EXPO performance kits. For the 2024 OMEN 35L with 32GB DDR5, the typical modules are: DDR5‑5200 or DDR5‑5600 with JEDEC timings around: DDR5‑5200: ~40‑40‑40‑77 DDR5‑5600: ~46‑46‑46‑90 These are standard OEM timings, not performance‑tuned. If you want the exact numbers for your unit, you can check in 10 seconds: Windows → Task Manager → Performance → Memory → SPD → Timings or CPU‑Z → SPD tab → JEDEC table But the above ranges are what HP ships in this model line. ✅ SSD Lanes (HP OMEN 35L – 1TB NVMe) The OMEN 35L uses a PCIe Gen4 NVMe SSD in the primary M.2 slot. ✅ It runs at PCIe 4.0 ×4 (four lanes) This is true for: The motherboard’s primary M.2 slot The included 1TB SSD Any replacement Gen4 drive you install So you’re getting the full 4‑lane bandwidth, not a reduced ×2 configuration.

Q: QuestionWhat’s the motherboard?

Asked 2 months ago by Anonymous.

• A:Answer ✅ Short Answer HP does not use a retail motherboard. The HP OMEN 35L (Ryzen 7 8700F, 2024 model) uses an HP‑proprietary micro‑ATX motherboard, typically labeled: “HP 8906 / 8907 / 8917” (varies by batch) These boards are custom OEM designs built specifically for the OMEN 25L/30L/40L/45L/35L series. ✅ What You Actually Get Even though the exact model number varies, all 2024 OMEN 35L motherboards share the same characteristics: ✅ Chipset: AMD B650‑class OEM ✅ Form Factor: micro‑ATX ✅ Primary M.2 Slot: PCIe 4.0 ×4 (for your NVMe SSD) ✅ Secondary M.2 Slot: PCIe 3.0 ×4 (varies by batch) ✅ RAM: DDR5, dual‑channel, up to 128GB ✅ BIOS: HP‑locked (no overclocking, no EXPO/XMP) ✅ Power connectors: Standard 24‑pin + 8‑pin CPU ✅ Front panel: HP proprietary block connector ✅ Why HP Doesn’t Publish the Exact Model HP uses multiple OEM board revisions across the same product line. Your OMEN 35L could have: HP 8906 HP 8907 HP 8917 All functionally identical for performance and compatibility. ✅ How to See the Exact Board in Your Unit If you want the literal model number for your cockpit: Windows Search → “System Information” → BaseBoard Product or CPU‑Z → Mainboard tab It will show something like: “8906”, “8907”, “8917”, or “89xx” This system uses an HP‑designed micro‑ATX motherboard built specifically for the OMEN 35L series. It’s an OEM board based on an AMD B650‑class chipset, with DDR5 support and a PCIe 4.0 ×4 M.2 slot for the NVMe SSD. The exact board number can vary by unit (for example: 8906, 8907, or 8917), but all versions offer the same features and performance.

Q: QuestionCan a heatsink ssd fit it the second slot. And is a heatsink required?

Asked 3 months ago by HANSOLO.

• A:Answer ✅ Can a heatsink SSD fit in the second slot? Yes — but with caution. The second M.2 slot (typically PCIe Gen3 ×4) is located between the CPU cooler and the GPU. That space is tight, but low-profile heatsinks (like those on Samsung 980 Pro or WD Black SN770) do fit. Tall heatsinks or bulky fin-style coolers may not clear the GPU. If your GPU is dual-slot and the heatsink is under 5mm tall, you're likely fine. If you want to be sure, measure the vertical clearance between the motherboard and the GPU backplate — it’s usually around 5–7mm. ✅ Is a heatsink required? No, it’s not required — but it helps. The second M.2 slot does not have a built-in heatsink, unlike some premium boards. NVMe SSDs can throttle under sustained load, especially Gen4 drives. A heatsink helps maintain performance during long transfers or heavy I/O. If you're using the second slot for archival storage or light usage, you can skip the heatsink. If you're installing a high-performance Gen4 SSD, a low-profile heatsink is a smart upgrade.

Q: QuestionThe Graphics card of this computer is Dedicated or Integrated? Does it workd well with programs like AutoCAD and REvit?

Asked 6 months ago by Nick.

• A:Answer It 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.
