HP OMEN 35L Unboxing and 1st Impressions

[@drthompson65]

I really like where HP is going with the omen line. My only suggestion to HP (if they read your followers comments) is to take a bit more time with cable management and add heat sink RAM modules. Looking over the pc’s on the floor at Micro Center that is all I notice that would stop me from purchasing one versus building. I hope this helps!

Thanks for the feedback! Happy to say the 35L features heatsink RAM modules 🙌

[@drthompson65]

@@OMENbyHP thanks!

⁠@@OMENbyHPhey I’m planning to buy the 45L with 4090 14900. Does it too have the heatsink ram modules ?

[@StereoSoundAgent]

You have no idea how helpful you've been with this video, thank you isn't enough...if I had any money left after buying this thing, I'd donate

[@FlickTheBrick]

Ever since the Obelisk, Omen has made constant improvements with each new desktop iteration. It’s a great platform for newcomers to enter PC gaming and learn how to upgrade and eventually build their own PCs. Love it.

Wow HP did very good with this build, excellent review👏

[@DaPoets]

@@lilidk thank you for the compliment!

As a PC builder, I’m thrilled to see HP making positive changes. Their new build is solid, performs well, and seems to be doing its job effectively. I'd consider this prebuilt instead of building my own. However, I'd likely consider the Intel version despite I tend to lean AMD.

[@christopherjames9843]

It is actually pretty sharp looking. I wonder if the case is proprietary or ATX compatible?

[@dominik64161]

When is the Release in europe?

[@achavez4651]

Great unboxing! Would you happen to know if the hardrive slot across the psu can be used for a sata ssd 2.5 inch as well, or is it only usable for the 3.5 hard drives? I know my omen 40L could use either or on the slots.

[@DaPoets]

Yeah that's pretty standard these days

[@achavez4651]

@ thank you!

[@Will-hq2sp]

I just bought one 35L i7 4090, with only 4 cooler fan. Am I gonna have a big heat problem ...?

[@Horology_Report]

Looks like better cooling than the 40l because you can mount a larger radiator.

[@oavh]

Crazy how i watched this whole thing on tiktok lol. I didnt know they supported longform on there now

[@DaPoets]

haha thanks for watching!

[@amyn227]

HP owns HyperX divison from Kingston. good to see they pack the mice n kb of hyperx with the omen pc

[@1theblacksheep]

Its that possible to wipe this win 11? I wanna keep win 10. Is that possible to download the Omen software?

[@DaPoets]

@@1theblacksheep win 10 is losing support so you have to use win 11

[@1theblacksheep]

@@DaPoets Thanks, does this motherboard has slots to another NVMW and also ssd?

[@chrisrussellca]

Good to see OEM's including add-ons that aren't self-branded. Why waste time stamping your name on cheap keyboards when you can get a decent one from a well known brand.

[@DaPoets]

Well to be fair, HP OMEN is HyperX

[@chrisrussellca]

@@DaPoets didn’t know that, but still, they couldn’t just included a black keyboard and stamped “HP” on it like the black Dell keyboards lol

[@KaosII1968]

HP owns Hyper-X.

[@Lolong01]

This is 3000$ right

[@Absolutely_Allen]

That motherboard with no heat sink looks suspicious. HP saved some money

[@DaPoets]

@@Absolutely_Allen as I said in the video, depends on the CPU wattage

[@_GandalfTheGrey_]

Ah man this is lame! I just bought the omen 35L and mine didn’t come with that nice keyboard and headset!! wtf!!

[@slaydao.g9650]

999 at best buy right now

[@KaosII1968]

The holes to add heatsinks to the vrm are there, so why would they not just pop them on there.??? It would cost them nothing. I understand the need for SI's ...But, HP is a huge company, especially with business machines. They are not a system integrator- "SI" Everything is proprietary....Motherboard, GPU, PSU, case is micro ATX only and Glass front in 2024??? If you change the Motherboard or cpu, your Windows key will most likely no longer work. Adding RGB doesn't make things better or faster. This guy is telling you himself ...crap ram speeds with very high cas latency.... change out the motherboard, upgrade gpu in a couple yrs. This case is designed for this card and will probably fit no others. But with the choked off front panel you would not want this case anyway. If you look at this at Best buy it's $2500.00!!! I'm old enough to remember the awesome the original "VooDoo PC's" Omen and HYPER X brands, before HP bought and ruined them. I would not go this route. No room to upgrade, proprietary everything... Designed to be thrown out in a few yrs. If you don't want to try and build your own just go to Micro Center and pick your parts and have them build it for you. You will have a great upgrade platform, it will be cheaper, and a warranty that will be honored. If you want to go with an SI .... Check out Meta-PC or NZXT BLD... you will also get your moneys worth. Just check out Gamers Nexus reviews of HP OMEN. I have no hate for HP PC's..... Just the the practices of huge corporate brands misleading young people into buying something that they have limited control over. No real BIOS that you can OC and fiddle with and HP proprietary parts through out. I've been building Custom PC's for 17 yrs. I just want everyone to know the pitfalls of dealing with companies this large. This will be E-waste in 2-3 years... just please do your research before buying. Look at trusted review sites that are not being sent free items to keep. Again, Gamers Nexus never accept free gear for review. You cannot give an unbiased review if you get to keep the product. To be fair, if you listen to this guy carefully he is basically telling you not to buy this, without telling you not to buy this. The temps are not good.

I guess you missed the whole part of the entire video where he mentioned the entire product follows industry standard components. I saw this at Gamescom, and the entire product is upgradable. The omen booth also had different variations, so if you wanted mesh front panel without "choking" off airflow you could have that too. You'll notice NZXT and Lian Li have glass versions and airflow versions of their products as well. Also Gamers Nexus has never reviewed an OMEN PC... he did review an HP Pavillion gaming PC, which is for beginners and entry level gamers who don't care about upgrading or whatever. They just want to have fun and play, the same way console gamers are. Not everyone can build their PC, and even if they are able to, doesn't mean they want to.
