HP Reveals Its Most Potent Gaming PC yet - Engineered for the Inconspicuous, Catering to Minimalist Design Preferences
In a move to bolster its gaming hardware lineup, HP has announced the release of two new desktops: the OMEN MAX 45L and the OMEN 35L. The OMEN MAX 45L, the top-tier desktop in the OMEN lineup, is a powerhouse designed for gaming, creation, and artificial intelligence workflows. On the other hand, the OMEN 35L, available in a Stealth Edition, is geared towards esports but caters to anyone seeking a more understated design.
The OMEN MAX 45L: A Flagship Gaming Desktop
The OMEN MAX 45L (2025) boasts top-tier gaming and performance components. It is equipped with an AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D processor, boasting 16 cores and 32 threads, paired with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 GPU, featuring 32GB VRAM. The desktop supports up to 128GB of DDR5 RAM and offers fast storage via up to 2TB PCIe Gen5 NVMe SSDs. To support its high-end hardware, the power supply options reach up to 1200W, a fully modular unit certified to 80 Plus Gold standards.
A key innovation in the OMEN MAX 45L is HP’s Cryo Chamber cooling system, which reduces CPU temperatures by up to 7.5°C, enabling stable overclocking and quieter operation. The system includes a large chassis for enhanced thermal management, a 360mm liquid cooler, and multiple high-efficiency fans for optimal airflow.
Additional features of the OMEN MAX 45L include comprehensive connectivity with USB Type-A and Type-C ports, Thunderbolt 4 support, and audio options with DTS:X Ultra. It also offers Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.3 wireless technologies, a design with a tempered glass side panel showcasing RGB-illuminated interior lighting, overclocking support, and a fully modular power supply with automatic fan cleaning features.
The OMEN 35L: A Stealthy Contender
The OMEN 35L for 2025 shares many of the same on-paper components as the OMEN MAX 45L. However, the Stealth Edition of the OMEN 35L, designed for esports, adopts a blockier, all matte-black design. Performance-wise, while not as powerful as the MAX 45L due to less space for airflow, the OMEN 35L still promises impressive gaming capabilities.
Expanding the OMEN Lineup
HP has also announced a refreshed OMEN 16 gaming laptop, equipped with up to an Intel Core Ultra 9 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti. Initial impressions of these new products will be appearing on the reviewer's website soon.
With these new additions, HP has expanded its OMEN line of gaming hardware, providing gamers and creators with a range of powerful and stylish options to choose from. The OMEN MAX 45L and OMEN 35L desktops are poised to deliver exceptional 4K gaming and multitasking performance, making them formidable choices for both gaming enthusiasts and professionals.
