I love that no matter how good of a laptop Kris uses, he still can’t hit his shots
lmaoo 😭🤣🤣🤣🤣
You can totally tell this guy hasn't used a gaming laptop in a long time. They are quite powerful considering their size compared to the pre-pascal generation of gaming laptop GPUs. Always going to sacrifice some power for portability and they will run loud/hot but they are not weak performing by any means.
big things come in small packages
Considering the vents on that Omen are choked by that mousepad, those temps are actually pretty good.
12:49 uhhh a desktop 6700XT you used as a price comparison performs waaaaay better then the 6600M in that laptop... the performance is not comparable lol what are you even talking about dude?
Hes sponsored. It makes sense hes tryna please the audience
For those wondering the main specs of this laptop are:
16.1" 1080p
Ryzen 7 5800H
16GB DDR4 3200Mhz
RX 6600M 8GB
And , no MUX switch, a possibly very important thing for many people. Otherwise nice specs for a nice price.
@@Tw3akst3r it has smart access memory, so that would make up for the loss of fps
@@Tw3akst3r just connect a external monitor or a dummy plug then
is the 144hz screen good
@@mokchahaahmed4226 Yes it is! It is more than adequate for gaming and the performance is just amazing! Just bought mine a few days ago.
Bro where have you been lol... Laptops have been getting really good for nearly 2 years now. High end modern laptops can literally be desktop replacements now. Not a high end desktop replacements of course but perfectly adequate for anything you throw at em.
True, people hate on laptops too much, and as a gaming laptop owner I can comfortably say that I cannot get a system that will match or outperform my laptop at the same price point with a good screen in the current market where I am
Honestly this review makes me actually cringe. Gaming laptops are 🔥🔥🔥 in a much different way now thankfully
@@bendybam9630 Which laptop do you own? Check benchmarks or CZcams reviews on laptop vs pc (like the one from "The Tech Chap"), a dekstop pc has a better price performance ratio than a laptop, if specs are similar, as the desktop pc offers better performance because the hardware parts have higher potential and numbers, cooling is also an issue, desktop pcs have definitely better cooling, as they generally have more space inside their case regarding airflow, compared to a thin laptop case. Not to hate on your laptop in any way, yet numbers and benchmarks indicate that PCs are the better option for price performance.
I love my gaming laptop. I can play just about every modern game on high settings at least and get 60+ fps. Tarkov, Hunt, Elden Ring, MK11, BF1 all run buttery smooth.
@@BlutigerFuchs Normally yes desktop will always have better price to performance but right now with the chip shortage, GPU shortage, and everything else there are some laptops that are better priced then desktops. Reason being is mostly the GPU. Even in prebuilt Desktops they're charging a fortune because of the discrete GPU where as laptops aren't nearly as over priced for what you're getting. Mostly because Laptop companies make their mobile GPU's in house and get their chips directly from Nvidia or AMD where as prebuilt Desktops are getting their GPU's from board partners at ridiculous prices which is then transferred to us. You can get a decent gaming laptop with an rtx 3070 mobile in it for around the same price as a desktop with an rtx 3050. it's ridiculous.
I own this laptop. I think its pretty great for the cost. I did need to get an external fan to help the cooling
Change your thermal paste
This is awesome! I was looking for a new laptop!
Finally new video what 5 for the last 12 months damn
I really like your content man. Good information and good sense of humour lol 😂❤
Nice to see you are doing great and nice video
Now the dust mites have a good laptop to travel with.
Good to see you back bro
Krisssss it’s been so long I see your doing well ❤️
Your audio and voice sounds so much clearer and better
Finally a new video. I've been waiting for decades😂😂
your editing is hilarious !!!
I've had an Omen laptop from 2020 and omg I can stream and game at the same time and it does get a bit hot and loud but if I have my headphones on I barely hear it, I don't mind having some of my settings on medium while gaming either. I love it so much, it works great with my art and switching to gaming, I honestly don't even plan on switching to a desktop computer until it dies cause it's really decent and is super consistant
Bro i was waiting for ages
I have an HP Omen 15 for 2 years and I'm very happy with it. If this newest model is anything like mine (looks like it is) then I can vouch for its performance and stability. I can play every game I want with at least 80+ FPS without the temps getting insane. Plus I can take it anywhere I go, everything I wanted with a computer.
Hi
I purchased omen 16 recently but while gaming the charger brick is getting extremely hot ?
Is it same with you ?
What to do?
Yes that's a 200 watt adapter it is supposed to get hot@@citizengaming3138
I have the same omen 16 but with i7 and a 3070 and its a beast.
Let's just face it, the meme of gaming laptops being smoking pile of garbage is already outdated
Man, you just earned a sub! Firstly you made me laugh, secondly I scroll down and see we have the same first name so there we go had to sub. Thanks for the review by the way, looking forward to the 2022 version as my TUF F15 is burning my legs.....time to sell and move on to a better product.
Been awhile! You look good bro!
And here I am with my OMEN 17 to take with me on my trips. Investment is starting to seem worth.
I love that the laptop ran apex better than Kris’s old computer lol
I had an older version of this, forgot the exact model though. never used it for games but I can confirm even one of these from a few years ago was able to run maya, zbrush, and any other awful computer destroying 3d modeling software that i needed to use! it looks like they’ve improved the aesthetic of them a bit too because on the hp omen I had the keyboard only lit up in that classic gamer black and red LMAO. It was a good little computer but my dog stepped on it and cracked the screen and instead of getting it fixed i just sold it since i have a comparable “3d graphics workstation laptop” provided by my college now lol
That bait and switch lmao, great video as always Kris!
I have this laptop but with RTX 3070 and 32GB RAM and it's amazing! Especially because it's not so noisy as for gaming laptop and temperatures never reach more than 80 degrees of Celsius.
thinking of getting this man since it is on sale. any tips? and what games do you normally play?
You can play Red Dead Redemption, Cyberpunk, etc. on >60FPS without problems. Reducing FPS can make your laptop running more quiet. For me, only problem is absence of Numpad. But all in all - I recommend it. Tested Helios 300 before and this one is much much better.
Hi. I'm planning to buy this laptop. How's your laptop after a year? Any issues? Would you still recommend this laptop? Thanks in advance!
Hello, my previous comment was deleted from unknown reason. Yes, I still recommend this laptop. After more than a year, it still works very well. Temperatures are still below 80°C when playing games. But need to check performance manually after updates. Because for example, AMD chipset software that installs with driver update, lead to CPU spikes and instability. So only issues you may face with drivers. Hardware is great :)
Kris, what is the best laptop for editing video/ photos (using adobe premiere, photoshop, illustrator, after effects)?
Yay new video😁
I have a version of this and its great it does not get so hot its the first machine i had that can game and not burn my room down.
I'm using a DELL Inspiron from 2015 on a 4 thread Haswell CPU, it has 16GB of DDR3 and a 860 Pro SSD. I don't have issues browsing with my numerous tabs opened in Firefox.
Just upload atleast once a month. You have helped me get through the pandemic and tough times with your streams and videos.
I have an Omen from 2021 and I love it. I did upgrade some of the things like the screen and the memory and stuff. I can run Rust really well (my old laptop wouldn't even load it). It hasn't overheated at all. I do make sure to take a lot of care of it with cleaning out the dust and such.
I am also planning to purchase the Omen 15 2021. What are the specs of yours?
@@dynl9141 I got the 16, i7 11800h 8core, 16gb ram ddr3, 1tb ssd, two ssd slots one is the 1tb, 144hz display
@@dynl9141 WiFi 6e, run MSI after burner and learn about the program, cap your gpu at 1.45ghz frequenzy limiting the max wattage to 20% lower while still keeping 97% max output, and only getting max temps of 65
i own omen 15 2020 i7 10th gen and rtx 2060 16 gb ram and 512gb ssd with 300hz 1080p display
ALL I CAN SAY
THIS IS A GOOD MACHINE
especially the cooling since i undervolted it a little bit.
I saw some of my friends have rtx 3070 on their laptops and sometimes it thermal throttle
mine it doesnt as long i maintain the dust out of the fans and clean it every few months.
it is 15 months to me now and still works like brand new
I'll be getting the Dell G15 and safe to say I will be undervolting the shit out of it.
I have an omen with a Ryzen 5 5600H, RTX 3060, 16gb ram, 1tb ram for 899. I love it, its freaking amazing. no complaints.
Godyee, using the keyboard and mouse to play games. But i do see your arcade shooter gaming fan , is all i can appreciate .
Should of did a dj system build with this back lit unknown brand dust collector, For dj equipment.
(Thinking i already saw this video reupload)
whatBlink sorry I just thought I saw a new video on Kris's youtube channel? Nah, no way. 😜 Welcome back to youtube land lol.
i have the same laptop with gpu 3070 its very cold and fast in rendering or gaming i love it it has very classy shape
This is the 2021 model not the 2022 one, which is supposed to come out by the end of March with 12th-gen Intel and Ryzen 6000 series processors.
I bought this exact laptop because it was on your lisylt for black Friday deals. I went through hell to get it delivered because I moved during a manufacturing delay and they wouldn't update the shipping address. I've never had a gaming laptop or pc before so I'm super happy with this laptop.
what game do you play and any issues about the laptop?
What a great and helpful product review!
Kwis delivers yet another banger video, congrats on the sponsor, love the content as always and I hope to see more videos soon! P.S. when did Mr Kwis get a girlfriendo😯
The thumbnail made me think this is a TechLinked video :D
The prodigal son returns ❤️
Do you have links to the floor lights? Been looking for some like that.
Yo Kris, put some carpet furniture sliders on the feet of that table and you can just slide it around the room. Don't kill your back.
That stuttering in Apex Legends is actually a shader cache problem. You need to set your shader cache from the Nvidia control panel on unlimited. I have recently got the same laptop and its surprisingly reliable, almost as good as my main pc lol
This is an all AMD laptop.
watching this on a hp omen rn, its fire asf
yes he is back
thank God i found your video on the HP Omen 16! thanks for reviewing this laptop! i've had friends who talk badly about HP products in general that it is not worthy for graphic-related work such as the Omen series.
i actually have the "Advanced Edition" C0005AX so it doesn't have the RGB stuff which i am fine with.
would you happen to have any recommendations for a perfect cooling pad for the Omen 16? cause for me where i live, it gets really hot on sunny days-- we're talking about 30°C+ haha!
keep up the good work! i'm subscribing~ 💖
hey don’t fall for that
Hi. I'm planning to buy this laptop. How's your laptop after a year? Any issues? Would you still recommend this laptop? Thanks in advance!
Hey would you recommend hp omen now?
hi been busy! since my OMEN's warranty's expired now, i've been doing most of the maintenance myself. i get to learn a lot about it and had been picky with the updates. so far still using Windows 10 as well.
the issues i had prior were heating-related so not so much on other stuff thankfully. just need to change thermal paste, clean the vents, good to go.@@Dragoborne
hmm probably not. only because i think there are much more better models out there now that can compete with HP's OMEN especially at the price point comparison and features.
apart from checking the budget, be more finnicky with the details of the specs of what you're looking for and what you're aiming to use the laptop for. helps a lot. @@MBA---
I actually had a variant of this laptop before, but I returned it because the touchpad was somewhat f*cked up, and it ran really hot.
Kris no bull sh*t would you recommend this computer for programming(Having 100 stackoverflow tabs open), school , and some gaming?
I didn't think u'd ever come back
The return of the king
Pog clean room, also u forgot to test among us
BTW the laptop would've run better if the laptop had been plugged into a monitor to avoid Optimus, the HP omen 15 sadly doesn't have a Mux switch.
I have last year's model of this laptop with a 3070 and a 10750h. It performs fine it can play most any game, but it does get hot and it does sound like it wants to take off and fly away. But it gets over 100 frames per second easy on Black Ops so... trade-offs are everywhere I guess
i have the omen 16 laptop with the 3070 and i7 11800 but i can’t run a game and get over like 15 fps. any suggestions?
@@coreycollett3330 All your drivers up to date? Are the fans in your laptop working? That sounds like either a software failure or really hardcore overheating.
@@coreycollett3330 u probably resolved it by now but I'm assuming it's cos your laptop was using your integrated GPU rather than the 3070
very funny... i hit subscribe :o
this was before they fixed the fps troubles on apex so id say you could get more then 100
Hi KristoferYee, I have HP OMEN 16-B0360TX Intel Core i7, 16GB/1TB/RTX 3060 (6GB). Whats your take with INTEL chipset performance on the same grounds ?
Just got this laptop will see how she does
I can't tell if he cleaned the room fir the video or the guests, either way I enjoyed the video
Very impressive indeed.
well well well, look who's back
i got the evoo gaming laptop with a 2060 16gb of ram and a 10750H 512GB ssd on sale at walmart
Only reason why I like laptop gaming is cause I’m a trucker and I still love to pc game! Can’t take my rig in my truck it wouldn’t fit
I dont even need a new laptop and this almost convinced me to buy one anyway. Awesome job as always Kris.
P.S. Kris has a gf now??
miss you man
Can you make a video on the framework laptop
is omen 16 with rtx 3050ti good for gaming streaming aaa titles likes god of war at high settings, or like streaming resident evil at 60 fps on stream? or cod warzone on stream, keeping the laptop less heated and not damaging the laptop
Hey did you still get the omen 16 if so would you recommend the amd gpu or nvideo gpu on it?
@@swagzgaming2654 i dont have 16 but i would say nvdia gpu is all time best
Is it good for animation ,rendering ?????
I liked this bcs of the baseball bit lmao
Mines a Omen 16 RTX 3050... I wonder why every time I search for reviews on it everyone else has a RTX 3060
you have to note that screen recording can also reduce frame rates (though on high end pc's not much), but not bad
External capture card was used so no worries :)
bro became a puppy for a sec 5:53
Ive had this for 2 weeks and started going extremely slow I did a hard reset still having the same issue. any recommendations?
Did you ever get a fix?
He actually uploaded wow lol
Hello
A recent physics graduate, I'm getting into data analysis (I'm not a gamer). Although I don't need a lot of power, I can spend some extra money.
I came across this one for $2199 (a data analysis vlogger recommended them). That seems really inexpensive for what I get (pasted below).
Opinions?
Also, I use Ubuntu (to be exact, PopOS). Will I see any problems?
11th Gen Intel 8-Core i7-11800H I 64GB DDR4 2TB SSD I Geforce RTX 3060 6GB I Thunderbolt Backlit Win11 + 32GB MicroSD Card
Why do almost all windows laptops have this slanted design at the bottom? Only razer and Asus seem to have a rectangular bottom chassis. I would think a full rectangular shape would help with air flow
because the design highly affects the airflow which directly affects temperature and gpu & cpu frequency. So each laptop brands have different chasis design fitt for bottom design
I want brands to produce work + casual gaming decent looking laptop 💻
Well geez! You don't need high fps for how YOU play games! Only takes a couple of frames before you die anyway!! :). Seriously. Thanks for the review. This system is heavily on sale at BB and just wanted to make sure it was safe getting the great deal instead of getting the latest model. Bottom line=YES
Kristofer: the gpu is at 75 degrees which is really hot
My razer laptop at 95 degrees: bwoah
I own the 2021 11th gen I7 + 3060 version love this thing, but my mousepad don't work properly and will lose it's mind after a few minutes of list, but idgaf cause I have a mouse now, so this laptop is fucking amazing. It's most likely just my laptop, and I need to update Bios cause I did buy it used for 944 dollars off Mercari.
Fans ain't that loud, it don't get too hot, The Keyboard sounds good, the Trackpad is amazing, The screen is sharp. Best Fucking Purchase I've ever made and Honest don't regret it, haven't done heavy gaming on it since it is my college Laptop and I'm waiting for move in before I start pushing this MF to the max, but I for normal playing is hella fast, like, goes far passed my desktop's 1660 which has been holding on by strings.
I bought this laptop back in December. It worked great until just past the return window. GPU completely died. Best Buy wouldn't do anything about it (and tried to charge me $100 to send it to HP). So I contacted HP, they sent me a box with a shipping label for free and told me that it would take 3-4 business days to repair and test upon arrival and would be sent back next-day. If it took longer than expected, I would receive a loaner, and if they couldn't fix it they would send a replacement. I sent it out Feb 1 (same day I got my shipping label) and got an email for confirmation as soon as they got it, as well as a link to a status report page. I started following that page to keep up with what was going on. It said my estimated delivery date was Feb 9.
Feb 9 comes around and nothing had changed, so I contact support to get clarification. They told me the same thing as the first person, except omitted the bit about the loaner and replacement. The next day my estimated delivery date had changed to March 10. So I contact support again to ask them about a loaner or replacement. They tell me they put in a request to have the case manager contact me. He contacts me a couple days later just to give me his contact information. I email him back with my concerns and got no response. I couldn't get him on the phone either. At this point my service ticket says "Please contact HP" so I get back on with customer support, tell them the case manager isn't responding to my emails or answering my calls. They tell me there's a new case manager and they put in a request for them to contact me, but they can't give me the contact information. I give it a few days. Nothing. So I email the other guy again asking for information. He gets back to me the next day (first time he actually responded to one of my emails) and basically told me nothing. At this point it's nearing the end of February and they've had my laptop for almost a month. I asked for either a replacement or a refund because they weren't telling me anything, my service ticket still said to contact them (I still don't know why, they never actually told me anything when I did), and I was just being given the run around through the entire process. They were well past the time I was promised.
A few days later I got an email asking for a copy of my receipt, which I sent immediately after getting their email. But this was 5pm on a Friday. The following Wednesday I got an email saying they were going to send me a check because the repairs could potentially be further delayed. I just got that check around the first week of March. It was a great laptop until a component failed. I thoroughly enjoyed it for a month. Their customer service was atrocious though, which made me never want to buy from HP again.
Thanks for this
Damn, I’ve been eyeing their Omen 17 with a 12700h, 3070ti, 2tb SSD, and 32gb ram for $2k but if it’s just going to fail after a month 😩
Which rtx 3060 laptop do you prefer guys? This one?
Omen has a factory default with his touchpad!!!
Now we know that kristofer is still in 2019 and doesnt know that laptops are shitty good now
I just wanna emulate Pokemon Emerald, Clock Tower, and Threads of Fate on a laptop 😭
is your last gaming laptop from 2012?
Thank you markiplier2, I think I will buy this laptop!
Good video I hope, good laptop, I hope you can make an analysis of the Alienware X15 the laptop looks great and has 4 fans and a steam chamber how will the cooling of this laptop be
5:55 kris: meow
I have the 2020 Omen 15 (not exactly the same I know) and it appears really nice at first. This laptop has given me the most problems out of any pc I've ever owned. Keyboard died, had to send in for repair to HP. Now the wifi goes out. Random blue screens. Wiped it several times, tried swapping RAM, SSD, & Wifi card. Issues persist. Maybe I just am not lucky but every other laptop I've purchased is still working fine to this day.
Ah yes, I love roasting my chestnuts on my office work laptop.
The emotional damage got me hooked. I didn't care happened in the rest of the video, I watched it because of that
my laptop omen 16 juste burn with fire when I play century age of ashes. Finally it bleu scree more then 6 time i play today
If they would put more fans in the system runing at low rpms it wouldnt be such an issue with noise
Not enough room for more fans.
