“The specs for this machine list a power supply of only 500W. But NVidia claims a minimum of 600W is required for the 1080 ti. Is the power supply included in the Omen enough to safely power the graphics and cpu under load?”

I appreciate your reaching out. This computer absolutely will run reference with the included power supply. I encourage you to use a voltage meter to see the total draw of the unit, typically it will be running about 450w on load. If you ever planned to expand this computer or wanted a more efficient machine that was not running at 90% capacity I would upgrade the PSU.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This PSU is one of the worst you will ever see. I highly recommend switching it out asap as to not fry your system down the road. OEM manufacturers have to cut corners somewhere to save money and the psu on this system is where they did this at. Luckily you can get a top notch pay for $100. A $2000 rig should never have a power supply like this.
