Product Overview

The 2020 OMEN 17 is HP's flagship gaming laptop that is highly configurable, with options up to 10th-gen Intel Core i9 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Super.
The OMEN 17 features a 144Hz FHD display optimized for smooth gameplay, while Gigabit LAN and WiFi 6 are available for multiplayer games. As a 17-inch gaming laptop, the OMEN 17 trades portability for performance.

Reviewers from notebookcheck have found the following***:
The Omen 17 is one of the slimmest RTX 2080 laptops available. While the components become relatively warm under load, they do not heat up too much. The combination of high-end hardware, a relatively slim case and the missing graphics switching software leads to very loud system noise. The device becomes particularly loud when running 3D applications.

  • High-quality case
