For ppl who experience 80c+
Disable turbo boost by decreasing the maximum processor thing on the power plan to 99%
My temps decreased by 20c and with some gained fps (mhw to be exact)

Just got this laptop last week @ microcenter. Was blown away by the specs for $999. I got it for music production and casual gaming. The Thunderbolt 3 was essential. A 144hz screen would have been over the top amazing.

I have this laptop and have sent it back to HP for repair twice last year. Although to HP's credit, they managed to repair the laptop and send back to me within one week each time.

Got this hp omen 15 with 4k display and a 1050ti and I've got to say I'm in live with it. I got it to do school work and play games. Thanks for the review

Its getting harder to buy a gaming laptop .. Damn

[deepesh]

Got this one 4 days back a few points to share with people looking for user reviews in the comments:
- 144hz GTX 1070 MaxQ model, working fine for now, it is a beast with those specs and has GSYNC support.
- Tested GTA 5 and PUBG at ultra, managed to get over 90 fps, FIFA and CS:GO do justice to the 144hz panel.
- Temperatures are a mess while gaming, it constantly runs at 85+ °C, the fans run so fast and loud, the laptop will just take off any moment.
- Although completely different story at idle, CPU holds at 37-42°C, runs silent af.
- Pretty decent battery life so far, 3-4 hrs on fill charge(no gaming).

Nice job Matt! Did you install the latest bios? Based on your numbers I’m gonna assume that you did.

I bought a cheaper version off Newegg. 1060 3gb and 12gb RAM, and I freaking LOVE it. The screens color is kind of meh, but that’s not the biggest deal for me. I play MMOs and they all play at 60FPS (I cap it) solo and 45-60FPS in raids. After the BIOS update the heat management is much better. Very happy with this purchase :)

For all those concerned about the display, Mathew was talking about the Predator Helios 300 with 144hz display. When it comes to 60hz 1080p panels, The HP has the best panel.

Got this coming in the mail tomorrow and I couldn't be more excited!

If you're into gaming this laptop is perfect for you, since its cons can be buried with peripherals (touchpad [replaced with gaming mouse], laptop mic [replaced with headphone mic], etc.)

I hope HP OMEN 15 and X are still available next year 2019 or atleast have a price drop. What really sold me to choose this is the IPS panel. I'm a sucker for it so much even though there's alot of competing gaming laptops on the budget Ive seen people prefer. I just love the keyboard as well. Even though its kinda cringe they still use this black/red g4m3r aesthetics, I still appreciate how they managed to make it look gorgeous nonetheless. I love black/red anywayz. Lol Here's hoping I can still get it next year!

I bought this and have been using this everyday for a little over 2 weeks, if anyone has little small questions and don't feel like going to his discord, then feel free to ask.

[izzydownlow]

ayy, ive been waiting for this, just kinda hoped it wasnt red and black....

[OmarMustafaok]

Same laptop but with 144Hz is it good also for engineering programs like 3d max or revite

[kayveekhatrao]

Sir, can you tell us about the 2019 model . Actually it has been released and I'm planning to buy it .

[erfanrafie]

Thanks, really been waiting since the stream.

For those wondering about the HP Omen 15 I5 8300h GTX 1050 with 144hz screen, I have this model and I highly recommend it. Great for gaming, much better than the mid 2017 one ( had it and got an upgrade to this), Screen is amazing to watch films with or for games, excellent quality, fan can be a bit loud at times but you get used to it and barely notice it with headphones on or audio, very awesome customisable keys+ amazing design of the Omen. I highly recommend this and is capable of playing mostly any AAA+ title game in the market. I’ve played Fortnite - no problem Rust - no problem, PUBG- no problem and so on. No faults at all
