A whole new gaming PC concept, Lightweight and cool, Powerful innards
Awfully expensive, Short battery life

The new HP Omen X is an awfully impressive VR gaming PC, with the ability to jump between docked and backpack use cases seamlessly. This type of versatile gameplay is something that many thought would be a hard sell for Nintendo this year, to which they'v...
HP wanted to go big and loud with its most hardcore gaming PC yet. However, it's a little too loud and big for its own good. This desktop is simply way too huge to fit into the lives of most gamers, with a premium price that will turn off all but those wi...

Abstract: Some may say it's a “Bad OMEN”… (sigh at the bad joke). This is the HP OMEN X 900 and it's huge. It's a GTX 1080 & Intel i7 6700K based gaming PC and there is a lot you need to know. A lot. Want one? Amazon: prourls.co/kg3B - OverclockersUK Affiliate lin...
Solid overall CPU and gaming performance, Striking physical design
No overclocks applied, No upgrades allowed, Very expensive for specification

Abstract: Billed as the "flagship star" of its Omen HP range, the OMEN X is pretty stunning piece of kit. But besides its uber-cool look, HP's latest gaming desktop packs a powerful punch with top-mounted exhaust vents, three 120mm radiators and an innovative tri-c...
Cutting-edge, aftermarket-friendly design, Excellent gaming performance, as configured, Quiet fans, Dual USB-C ports, Competitively priced and factory customizable
Case stand is not removable, No processor-overclocking support in BIOS, Awkward side-mounted ports and no front-mounted ports, Downward-opening optical drive
