Just got done switching out my PSU using this video. Used the same exact Corsair model. Thanks for the video!
Love the videos! Just bought an omen 30L a few days ago with the ryzen 7 and rtx 2060! I have already put a liquid cooler on it and plan to do the power supply next! Your videos are a great help for the upgrading this PC! Thank You!
Thank you for watching!
Bro we have the same pc! can we talk in dc im looking to doing some upgrades and need some advice
Thanks for this video the power supply they out in these are not enough I'd recommend anyone who still has a 500w to upgrade mine died within 3 weeks. This video was really helpful will subscribe.
Thanks again Jeff! Upgraded to an AIO and to an RM750 PSU. All with the help of your videos. Next will be the Mobo and I'll use your mobo upgrade video as a guide. Keep up the good work, bud!
Thanks! Glad it is helping
did you upgrade everything or just the power?
Got this but 650w and damn it took 5 hours to complete and an extra hour to put on the back panel it was just so tricky and the cables were thick hope its worth it but right now 10/10 would not regret thanks for the help
Watching him struggle with that 4 pin connector just makes me grateful for my dremel. I haven't had a case that i haven't dremeled at least once in the last 20 years when i build computers...it is a little more work but makes cable management that much easier for me. Just a little sanding to fix the jagged edges
Haha yeah I have big hands. It can be hard in small cases.
I'm trying to flip a 30L and can't in good conscience sell it with the original 500W bronze PSU. This video was super helpful. Thank you!
You’re welcome
Question, I see a lot of psu’s that don’t line up with the screws in the back of the 30l I
I’m new to this so I really don’t know what I’m looking for my budget is low atm do you have any suggestions? Nothing I see online looks like the screws will line up.
Are there different 30l cases because my rear panel absolutely does not come off like that
I did the same AIO cooler and 650 psu upgrade about 2 months ago all the sudden when booting up my system is freezing and when I try to shut it down it just keeps spinning any suggestions ?
Hey Jeff, can this computer handle the RTX 3070? I have a 1660 super and looking to upgrade
I have a 2021 model 30l omen ryzen 5 5600. I want to upgrade to ryzen 9 5900x with a 240mm aio. I have already added sticks 2 sticks of ram and another tb of m.2 ssd storage. This came stock with a 500 w bronze coolermaster psu. Do i need to upgrade the psu? If so how do i know if what im buying will fit. The psu looks to be pretty crammed in there. Idk if it can handle much larger dimensions than it currently has.
The 500w psu that comes with the 30L is super annoying as the fan turns on and off depending on temp. Thanks for this video as it was very helpful as I swapped PSU's out. Question though. Would a 650 W psu be enough to power 2080 or better? Mine came with 2060. Thanks!
A 650w if it is gold rated can handle a better than a 2080
Thanks for the video! Just bought the same psu but 650 watt in preparation for an upgrade to an rtx 3060 ti GPU
Awesome!
@@JeffTheITGuy what power box would I need for when i eventually get a 3070 or 3080?
@@mdb1010 Nvidia recommends a 650W for 3070 and 750w for 3080 but they can draw more than that sometimes. So I’d say 700w for 3070 and 800w for 3080 just to be safe.
@@JeffTheITGuy thank you ill keep that in my mind for if the day ever comes where I found one for a reasonable price! great videos btw keep em up!
@@mdb1010 thanks and good luck
Im wondering why the psu goes fan facing down. will it be able to draw any air in that way? (thank god I found a video on how to do this)
Yeah it does, it pulls air from the bottom as long as there is ventilation
Will it work if I add a 750psu?
Did you need to purchase any other cables for the power supply or did it come with all of the ones you needed?
Came with all the cables you need
Hey Jeff I got the 850x psu I was wondering if it fits in the 30 l omen case and do you need to buy extensions cords for it ??
Yes
You should do a video displaying the best Omen 30L setups. Just have your followers/subscribers submit pics and videos. That'd be cool!
That would be cool. I’ll have to give that a whirl
Nice upgrade 👌 but boy are you rough with it. To much stuff in there. Have you thought about a bigger case?
Meh not rough just a little firm. Yeah I could have changed cases but I wanted to keep it in the sweet 30L
I recently bought an Omen 30L because I've been searching for a video card for a year and have had no luck. I'm essentially replacing evrything except the 3700x,mobo, and 3070... My question is, is there any parts that are harder to swap than others with this being a pre-built? I don't want to run into a buncha stuff hot glued or something...
The motherboard swap and cooler swap is the hardest probably
Thank you!
You’re welcome
Hey Jeff, I was wondering how many sata power cables are in the omen 30l?
2 or 3.
Will placing the fan facing down choke the PSU? I know that there is a mesh opening on the bottom but it looks like it only goes for half of the power supply and the other half of the fan is blocked.
Nah, should be fine
I just got the omen 30l and I was wondering if I could switch out the motherboard for the asus b550 (I’m new to PCs) thx.
It has to be mATX.
Do you know any good PSU to power a 3080 that has 3x 8 pin pcie slots and will be able to fit inside this case? Do you also know if you can remove the hard drive cages?
I don’t think you can remove the cages and the Corsair RMx
so the unit in the bottom across from the power supply, doesn’t get any power??
The wireless system? You mean the daughter board that has all of the lighting? It takes a sata power connector
What about the RGB controller to the bottom right? Is it just a sata cable connection?
I didn’t see you connect it back when installing the new psu
Yes it is
Will you upgrade the case? I'm thinking about it, but unsure how to go about doing it
I’m not upgrading the case. It would be simple, if you watch my other videos it’s just like that except in a different case
Hey. I have a 30L but looking to upgrade shortly. I will start with the PSU and then move on to a B550M ATX board. My question is would a Corsair RM850 W PSU upgrade work for my 30L in the short term until I get the B550M?
Yeah it’ll work just fine
@@JeffTheITGuy Thanks. I'll get started then.
After all the upgrades do you think its worth changing the case?
Depends really. If you need better cooling, more hard drives, or more space in general then yes. If not, then nah
Just bought this pc looking at what cpu cooler ram power supply and mother board u got and writing it down so I know what to get to upgrade it
He got another 8gb 3200 hyper x rgb fury something like that
He has a 750 watt power supply by chrosiar
And he has a cooler master cpu
cooler
He has the same motherboard it came with
Hey you can get the extra 8gb of the hyper x like what is in it. I also used a kit of G.Skill Flare X and G.Skill Trident Z Neo is all ways a great option
I have an HP Omen 30L. I was thinking of upgrading the power supply to future proof the PC for any future upgrades I would add in the future. Does upgrading the power supply to either an 850W or 1200W PSU mean I would also have to upgrade the motherboard or any other parts of the pc, or can the PSU be upgraded without needing to upgrade anything else? Thanks in advance!
You can upgrade the PSU without having to do other upgrades. Not sure why you would unless you plan on upgrading the cpu,motherboard and GPU
@@JeffTheITGuy Perfect! thanks for the reply! I'm a pc noob so your vids are helpful!
If I get a new motherboard will the front panel connectors still be able to get plugged in?
You will need front cable extensions.
@@JeffTheITGuy ok
Thanks for the video, I've a stock power supply which is 500w and running a RTX 2060. Whenever I launch a game, the display crashes. Any suggestions? I was thinking to upgrade the power supply.
Could be the PSU, could be the GPU is bad or overheating,
What should I try changing first? It happens with every game! I tried some mining on it. It’s works perfectly fine, the only issue is with the games.
@@devamsharma9763 have you tried to make sure the drivers are up to date? I’d warranty it before trying to work on it
@@JeffTheITGuy I updated all the drivers, including bios. It’s still under warranty though.
Hello, All the PSU am seeing has fans at the top, how come yours doesn't have and the link you posted also has the fan at the top. Won't it be dispensing heat from the PSU to the GPU
I flipped it over, and power supplies exhaust heat out the back, the fan on top is to pull cool air in
@@JeffTheITGuy oh thanks I thought the TOP fan is for hot air. I never knew it was to pool air into the PSU. Thanks dor prompt reply
@@beautifulplaces9804 You're welcome!
Hey can you not just put the new psu in and leave the cables? I know ive heard that the psu can have a different pin setups but I was just wanting your intake?
The old cables are attached to the old PSU. So you have to remove the old PSU and then add the new one.
Oh gotcha thanks man! Helpful video!
@@g_man2023 no problem
What power supply can I upgrade to with the 30l
It’s mostly about the size of the PSU. Look at the length of the Corsair RMx750. That would be the largest PSU length wise
What is the power supply only fit in upside down
It’ll be ok if it only fits that way
@@JeffTheITGuy Bro I’m putting everything back together and the audio controller with the pins it doesn’t plug back into the motherboard and also I have a small cord like a fan looking cord at the top I really need help
When are you doing the motherboard upgrade?
Next Friday!
@@JeffTheITGuy Excited to watch! I just got my 30L last week and am looking to see how these get upgraded!
When you put your liquid cooler in did you have any issues with coil whine afterwards? I don’t know if it’s related but right after I installed my liquid cooler, upon initial start up there is no coil whine. When you start a game suddenly there is coil whine and it gets louder as things ramp up. I have the 30l with the Ryzen 7 3700 and the GeForce RTX 2060.
I had coil whine to begin with, I had it from the GPU
@@JeffTheITGuy really? Dang mine never did until right after I installed it. You don’t think there is anyway it could be related do you I mean it doesn’t make sense how it could be related but I’ve never used a liquid cooler before so I wasn’t sjre
@@ScavengerSRT liquid coolers can have coil whine, it is technically pump whine.
@@JeffTheITGuy it’s just strange that it only does it when you start a game other than that it’s whisper quiet
@@ScavengerSRT that is the GPU
How did u take the panel off so easily
The screw then used a plastic tool to pry it loose
hey man! i have a HP omen 30L do you think a graphics card RTX3070 would fit in the case?
If it is a 2 slot width card, yes. I wouldn’t use a 3070 on the stock 500W PSU though
thanks for your reply man, i'm replacing the Motherboard with a mATX MSI b550 mortar. 32GB ram and replacing the power supply for a 750W. i'm using the computer exclusively for Blender to do architectural visualization. do you think those upgrades would be okay?
@@AshBurgos1 sure do. Sounds like a real winner to me!
i put a 3070 in my ryzen 7 omen 30l. we’ll see how long it lasts
@@SSRudy916 probably until it hits 1.21 Gigawatts
Hey there, I have successfully changed my power supply but my lights won’t turn on anymore. I have a Omen 25l.
There is a daughter board that requires power in the bottom front of the case.
@@JeffTheITGuy thank you for the info but I might need to get a new psu because my cord is too short to reach both areas.
@@gurpaijtur997 ahh. They make extensions.
@@JeffTheITGuy Oh then I’ll just buy an extension. Thank you for the help!
@@gurpaijtur997 you’re welcome
Dose a 3080 fit in an hp 25 l
Depends on which 3080. I would say not though, they are large cards in a small case.
will the RM850x fit?
Sure will
what psu comes with it by default
500w Cooler Master
Is there a 750w alternative? Thankyou
Sure, are you wanting something that isn't 750W?
Here is a 650: amzn.to/2Y7jPty
Here is a 750w Seasonic: amzn.to/3c3hHeU
EVGA 750W: amzn.to/363KxI6

@@tvangilsable ok I linked a few for ya. In my reply also one in description
Thankyou for the help
@@tvangilsable you’re welcome
when are you uploading the gpu upgrade vid?
Soon!
Mine came with a 750 watt Platinum power supply.
Seriously? A 750w?
@@JeffTheITGuy Yes. They keep changing possible parts constantly and glad I waited to order. Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 12GB GDDR6 | Power Supply: 750W Platinum | Operating System: Windows 10 Home x64.
@@samiam9059 that’s a sweet PC.
@@JeffTheITGuy It really is as far as prebuilt pc. I have built I9's and Ryzen 7 4700G recently and getting very expensive to part out builds to save money. Some of the other major companies are no where close to HP's power of large buying. Just not like a couple years ago always saving cash to build your own and generally a lot of fun and education. Hope it comes back though. Have seen a lot of hobby industries die because electronics are so integrated today you cannot build the gear cheaper anymore.
Can you do another controller giveaway
Um maybe in the future I suppose
Can you upgrade the omen board to 5800x cpu is it possible?
No. Not possible at all.
@@JeffTheITGuy what board do you recommend? Because I’m having a bios issue due to only having one computer
@@mik8696 I have a video showing me replacing the board with a B550 AsRock. But any B550 mATX or X570 mATX from Gigabyte, MSI or AsRock will be good for sub $200
@@JeffTheITGuy hey my pc is running but I have no signal on my monitor . I have checked everything including the ram please give me an answer? I have a brand new 650 watt power supply!
@@mik8696 make sure you have power to your GPU and that it is using 8 pins and not 6. Also, make sure you are plugged into the GPU and not the motherboard
What cpu cooler is that ?
Cooler master ML120
Did this solve the overheating issue?
@@taylorballard9422 yea
What was the original specs
Ryzen 5 3600, crappy B450 board, 400w PSU, 8gb ram single stick
@@JeffTheITGuy wasn’t it a 500w?
@@joshisswag7362 yeah sorry 500w
Can a nzxt kraken z53 fit this type of build?
No. It has to be a 120mm CPU cooler
@@JeffTheITGuy thank you for your answer.
@@Leo_x360 No problem. Let me know if you need help.
@@JeffTheITGuy so I plan to fit a m22 cooler on my omen by following your video on cooler replacement. Is there a bracket that you would recommend? Thank you for your time.
@@Leo_x360 it should be on your system to mount it to the case. Also,. You will need the intel bracket for the M22.
I am struggling getting the side panel off.
Yeah it’s a beast. There is a screw by the power supply, make sure you get that and then just pry the back panel off
I've spent an hour trying to get it off
@@kingdaveyy13 did you undo the screw by the power supply? It also helps to have something to sort of pry the back panel away from the front of the case.. the panel slides back first then releases
@@JeffTheITGuy yup and yup
@@JeffTheITGuy all I've been doing is scratching the back panel when I try
Cant see anything youre doing
My shit was so tight I ended up cutting most of the wires lmao
Oh snap!
