After being a Mac user for over 12 years I wanted to get back into PC gaming. I needed a machine that could do both games AND have a high quality screen for my illustration work. And I needed to stay within a budget. I eventually went with the HP Omen, AMD Ryzen 7 & GTX 1660 Ti. No complaints so far and the cooling gets great performance out of the Ryzen 7!
I already have this laptop, gtx 1660ti and i7 10750h, 144hz, so far I am having a great experience! I normally plan to use this laptop for photo and video editing and some gaming.
@@philiphans7521 So it does get hot while gaming, I have done any video editing yet but it handles it well. I haven't seen it go above 88°C and I haven't seen it throttle either, so far so good!
Ben, thanks for updating the video to reflect that your unit has the 60hz panel rather than the MUCH more common 144hz version. It should also be noted that the 144hz panel gives you very good color gamut (e.g., 97% sRGB vs 60Hz's 64% sRGB) and much better brightness at 300+ nits (325 nits) vs 250 nits for the 60hz panel. Bottom line is content creators....make sure you are getting the 144hz version of the panel.
I literally just purchased this machine (AMD Ryzen 7 / 16 GB RAM / GTX 1660ti / 1tb SSD storage) for my son in college studying AutoCAD (construction management major) and hoping I made the right choice for him within my budget... 🤞🏼 (I’m used to Adobe Illustrator on MAC so kinda clueless when it comes to Windows machines)
this was the perfect review i was looking for, cause the gaming aspect isn't too important for me! i just needed to hear if certain adobe programs work (well) on it, and you gave me much more. thank you so much!
After much research and using your video reviews I finally decided on the HP Omen for 4k video editing. For someone who is still learning about video editing, this video was easy to follow along! Bought through your link, thanks for your help!
I like how you say "gently press the like button" in comparison to others that say "smash the like button!"😂👍 Thanks for the review I've been thinking of buying one to use for college this was very helpful.
Thanks for the great work you do. I'm just getting started with my channel and needed a new laptop so I'm buying this one with your link. You give some great analysis and your videos are very helpful!
This computer is great,I've been loving it. But would you recommend upgrading to a better graphics card? And wish one? I do advanced animations on after effects all the time and still get lag
I really enjoy your videos and they're helping me a lot right now as i am picking up a laptop for college, but i want to be able to use for after effects and gaming
been looking at SO many reviews for various laptops bc my old i3 3gb ram laptop is so infuriating to use as a games design student lmao. hopefully this’ll help get me into uni lol
Would be using for Live streaming and Video editing. Editing with AVID Media Composer and live streaming with Wirecast Studio. How would this computer fair?
Hi, thanks for the video. With a similar price, would you recommend the HP Omen 15 with the GTX1650 Ti or the HP Zbook Powerfly 14 with the Quadro P520 for solidworks and catia? Thanks
Then why has my premiere pro dropped so much in quality editing:/ I have this laptop and premiere isn’t working well anymore with major stuttering on the timeline I can’t even scroll…I cleared cache and allowed accelerated gpu still nothing even proxies nothing any help would be appreciated!!
Great video!! I am looking for a laptop to work with Autocad and especially with Solidworks modeling and making large assemblies. My budget is around € 1,300 and I think the HP Omen 15 can fit me very well. How do you think it will perform with these software? Thanks !!
Ben G Kaiser I just want to run Davinci Resolve 17 with no lag on this laptop. Need to edit in 1080p for hiking videos. May so day go to 4k but not needed now. I have another laptop for daily use. I'll use the ssd to download video files onto and edit with then transfer files to external drives when done and uploaded. My main concern is choppy laggy video editing while working. Will this be what I'm looking for? Tks
Hi i was curious for your reviews what the benchmark outcomes mean like for example it would be great if you could note like lower is better or higher is better on each graph because sometimes i cant tell
So I've looked into the max ram upgradability and I can't seem to find a definite answer, some places say 32GB and I have seen some people putting 64GB and it runs just fine. I would go for the 64 but I want to be certain before I purchase. Any thoughts are appreciated if you have this laptop and you have done the upgrade. I have the i7-10750H CPU @ 2.60GHz Max Q 8 design, currently running 2x 8GB SK Hynix 3200MHz if that helps. THANKS!
Hey man, regarding the screen flex, (I've got myself HP OMEN 15 Intel i7 10th Gen 10750H with Nvidia RTX 2060), I would say there is decent amount of flexing on the screen but if you could buy a nice laptop bag with some good cushioning, it'll be just fine. I'll give you a link regarding the backpack (www.amazon.in/HP-Millennial-Backpack-Detachable-Laptop/dp/B07LB5N36Y/ref=sr_1_1?crid=14OZFWT1FWFQK&dchild=1&keywords=hp+millennial+backpack&qid=1601640405&sprefix=hp+millen%2Caps%2C291&sr=8-1). And if you're buying the omen 15, go for the ryzen 7 rtx 2060, its an absolute beast.
Keep in mind that if you get the standard 144hz panel the brightness is well over 300nits. For example other reviewers have recorded 327nits for the 144hz panel when meausring it with the Spyder X tool. Additionally the color gamut of the 144hz is SIGNIFICANTLY better (e.g., 97%sRGB vs 64%sRGB for the 60hz panel).. Bottom line is make sure that you are getting the 144hz panel not the 60hz version. To be honest I've not even been able to find and HP Omen with a 60hz pane so the 144hz panel seems to be MUCH more common..but make sure you check before purchasing.
Picked up one these recently after building an AMD desktop. Did not plan on buying a laptop especially after building the desktop rig but a fault forced my hand. The desktop is a monster Ryzen 3900x but I have been very impressed with the OMEN 15. The main use for the OMEN 15 for me is tethered photo capture, editing and video editing at my studio. I upgraded it to 64GB ram and added a 2tb Corsair NVME to it also upon purchase. I originally wanted a RTX 2060 version but could not wait due to a faulty Dell laptop. The OMEN 15 performs great. I often have it exporting from Lightroom ( which sucks at using current hardware ADOBE ) and rendering out videos from Davinci Resolve 16 free and I can still use it for other tasks. Best to set Lightroom going and leave it but that's more an Adobe crap code issue.
@@vikasyadav1244 if I'm not wrong the predator Helios 300 comes with a i7. Assuming you're in India , I haven't seen the 2060gpu with it either. Look at the Asus tuf a15 ryzen 9 +2060 gpu. If colour accuracy isn't that big an issue. Hi with that. Best price . Btw. Call Asus India directly through customer service ( they won't help you ) , raise a complaint. And they they will get back to you in a day or two with someone who actually knows something. And ask them for the price of it. All these other "exclusive partners" Sell at a much higher markup. I did this exercise and found the Asus tuf a15 r9+2060+16g+1tb+ fortressgrey to be 1.15 Vs "Asus stores" selling it at 1.25, 1.35 even 1.7. Beware of scammers.
I think you're test of a little suspect as your have the Omen cinebench highest over the ryzen 9 and over another same spec Asus ryzen 7 4800, this can't be right as a better of the Legion 5 has the same specs as the Omen and you have it scoring way lower in the same tests... this smells like bullshit

How will it perform in moderate to intense gaming??
Which one should I Buy for best video editing Hp Omen 15 or Triton 500 ?
I just wish this omen came in a touch screen
Then why has my premiere pro dropped so much in quality editing:/ I have this laptop and premiere isn’t working well anymore with major stuttering on the timeline I can’t even scroll…I cleared cache and allowed accelerated gpu still nothing even proxies nothing any help would be appreciated!!
Which is good in thermals hp omen 15 or legion 5i I know both are good but if u got to pick one which one do u pick..?
Ben, why all the dropped frames? If I got the Intel version with the RTX 2060, would it run with no dropped frames?
With the 2060 you will have far less, and perhaps ZERO dropped frames. :)
@@BenGKaiser You are super for getting back to me. Most reviewers don't. And I really needed this answer. You are the best!!!
If i buy hp omen 15 ryzen 7 rtx 2060 will i get enough performance. Or i should go to intel.
Ryzen is better than Intel :)
Great video! Will you do a video on your thoughts on if I should buy a MacBook Pro now or wait for the Apple silicon MacBooks to come out?
8:44 Millisecond or Seconds? Specify please
Is it good for UNITY and UNREAL ENGINE ( Game Development ) or should i prefer INTEL variant.
Great one. Please do comparison with Zephyrus G14 and Strix G17

Hello, does this PC lag during video editing?
Does it render fast?
Does a 144hz refresh rate help at all with editing or dropped frames?

Regarding your hp omen..
Is it 300 hz?? And is the 300 hz screen better than the 144 hz in terms of srgb and adobrgb?
This is a great review about a really good laptop.
does this have a slot for HDD?
Is the RAM upgradable mate?
04:10 200 nits or 250 ??
