HP Omen 30L

Overview

For $999, I think the Omen 30L is a fantastic buy. Without factoring in the cost of the case, power supply, Windows 10, or the included basic peripherals, you will be spending that amount for a similarly-specced, custom-built machine. Add those missing pieces to the equation and you'll spend about $200 more than buying pre-built from HP. In other words, value is pretty good on the Omen.

The HP Omen 30L fits in some high-end hardware into a bit of a tight space. It keeps the performance up, but doesn’t have many options for improving thermals beyond increasing the noise if they start to become a problem.

The HP Omen 30L GT13-0092 is a sleek, bold and unassuming machine that doesn’t feel the need to shout its gaming credentials, especially its impressive 1440p and 4K performance

The HP Omen 30L runs games beautifully, thanks to its powerful hardware and quiet cooling system. It's expensive, though, and packed with a lot of extraneous software and accessories.

HP’s Omen 30L is a solid pick for a mainstream gaming tower, if a smidge unpolished inside. It's widely configurable, with AMD and Intel CPU flavors, overclocking options, and RGB lighting.

HP’s Omen 30L looks good and is a capable high-end gamer in our configuration with an RTX 3080. But you’ll want to set aside time to remove bloatware. And given the limited cooling, you should probably opt for something less than the 10900K CPU in our review unit.
