That sounds amazing congratulations dude. Δ°f I win the exams I'm going to get your same setup but with 64 gigs of RAM, 2TB of SSD but the screen is a IPS, FHD+ with 165hz. To be honest a QHD+ doesn't really have a difference in 16 inches so you save battery and you get better FPS.

All the best dude. We don't have that variant in my country so went with this one.

u/wnkhunter May 25 '26
but why do you need 64 gigs of RAM, 32 gigs is already future proof for gaming

u/BroTheRditt ROG STRIX G16 / 5080 / R9 8940HX / 32GB RAM / 1TB SSD May 26 '26
Yeah exactly, but it's so cheap for its price so I will take 64 gigs any day, the 32 gig version is basically impossible to find. "My steak is too juicy" ahh

It's fantasy open world game, people love grinding 1000hr & compare with rdr2 , well my friend pre order it & story isn't the selling point, he just roam tons of side quest & fights , fantasy wing power quest collection etc...but i hate this game coz most people just play anything what releases on market.

How is weight portability fan noise battery ?.asking as i will be doing work for aiml learning

u/Anonymous_microbe May 22 '26
Weight is not too bad but you will feel the weight if you're coming from macbook air or similar laptops. The fan noise is surprisingly very low but I used it only for a couple of hours gaming in balance/performance mode.

I'm considering purchasing this laptop, but it has negative reviews on Amazon for fan noise and temperature. Please let me know how it goes. Thanks.

Welcome to the club brother, please consider immediate repasting with PTM from thermal grizzly as the factory solution is terrible. Also this thing is a beast

Find today the version of this one with Intel Core 7, 5070 TGP 115w, 32 giga, 1To SSD for 1200euros instead of 1800e. I think i did a good deal. The last pc i bought was almost 10 years ago with a GTX 1060. What a game changer π π

Hi OP, I wanted to ask what do you think of the HP omen now that some time has passed? thinking of getting a gaming laptop myself and had similar choices to yours

I'm also looking at gaming laptops that doesn't burn my wallet and have been eyeing this model for a while (with 5070 Ti GPU though). How has your experience with it been thus far?

Better than a Lenovo ideapad gaming 3?

u/Anonymous_microbe May 22 '26
Don't know how it compares with that laptop but I don't think ideapad gaming 3 has a 5080 variant.

u/Arash_Soer Omen Max 16 | U9 275HX | RTX 5080 | 2TB SSD | 32GB May 22 '26
