I normally buy MSI and if it weren’t for the price of everything right I would have never gave this a shot. As other reviews have noted this laptop does run a little hot but not unacceptable. I think HP can improve on the cooling design here. Best I could find the laptop can only take 2TB max ssd’s. I did upgrade it to a WD SN850X 8TB 2280 and it fit no problems. There was a 2280 SK Hynix 1TB installed from factory. There is also a 2230 slot available for upgrade that is empty. I’m not entirely sure if the RAM is upgradable to 64GB or not but am curious.

This laptop can handle a lot. Performance wise you can run most games but the quality you get to run at 60 fps is amazing. I used mine with peripherals and a monitor and i had to trouble. This laptop is a beast and for the price you can get it on is soooo worth it.

Hi, I believe this is a great computer for me. Nick and Sturert? helped pick it out for me. I like to trade the S&P and Nasdaq futures,so this computer is perfect. They also took care of taking off old info and adding it to the new computer. Many other minor changes were also performed by them. You have some very capable staff in the Geek Squad. They are the reason that I buy at Best Buy. Thanks, Dave Knecht

The HP OMEN Gaming Laptop is well made I have had no noted problems with it. Laptop has plenty of memory and a 1TB SSD for plenty of space. 32GB of DDR5 Memory is plenty of system memory for any game I want to play.

Everything I expected, except for the freezing up. I know it's a Windows 11 problem, so can't really blame the computer, but they could have packaged it with a better OS!
For gaming this thing is great! Runs Minecraft with dozens of mods and shaders at 144 FPS even when recording video while playing. I have not had it freeze in the middle of a game, but if you plan to use this computer for other things like web browsing or video editing, you may want to replace the OS. Otherwise you'll be rebooting every few hours.

A laptop for my grandson beginning Electrical Engineering at Iowa State University. Seems like it will get him a good start on his education. Added Microsoft 365 for reports.

Call helped me choose which computer to get and my son loved it! He has texted me several times to let me know how fast and fantastic it is. Thank you, Nicole and Rob for the great help in picking it out.

This Laptop handles like a champ for most Games though do keep in mind it just as easily gets hot quickly and to keep it elevated on a cooling pad or laptop stand as it’ll need to keep those cooling fans running- just some friendly advice, also from experience if it does overheat it will automatically go turn it’s self off as a security feature I believe. I’ve also been using this Laptop for some CAD (Computer Aided Drafting) as a mechanical inclined person- hoping to pursue a degree in Mechanical Engineering & Design someday. Still yet to experiment with all the graphics cards and settings though as this is the first high end Gaming Laptop I’ve ever bought- so hopefully I’ll get back to you all in another updated review in the future on that. Also Note that this Laptop will use a lot of energy/ battery power processing higher end games graphics. Ect…… so it’s good to keep the charger on hand as I’ve got it down to 10 % or less battery unplugged in 4 to 3 hours or less though that’s the cost better graphics and processing power as a trade off just to keep in mind. One more thing to add sometimes I’ve experienced a slight lag (1 to 3 seconds) of graphics/ display delay switching from one tab to another quickly only after using the laptop for several hours though and being a little hot with around 20 tabs open and sometimes going from my game to discord.

i bought this computer because of the well made case as I had problems with the thin crappy plastic of other brands and types of computers. It's great for that and the keys have good action, feel good. The battery life is short though, but it is a gaming computer. I recommend it.
