I bought this PC because my other desktop would not power up the mother board died; it was an also a HP Envy. Could not get a replacement mother board because they no longer made them for that PC. So, I ended up buying the Omen 16L no issues.
An overall decent PC build. Nothing can really be upgraded on it internally without just replacing the entire system since HP designed it that way. Needs more VRAM than 8GB is only real issue I’ve found.
I wanted something that would not be obsolete by the time I got it out of the box. I had an HP laptop a while back and the quality was good and it never gave me trouble. So far I love it.
This is a good gamer, and runs everything I need it to. It definitely has a limited future, tho. There is an empty NVME slot, but that's it. No spare power connectors, no spare memory slots, no empty bay for whatever expansion you might be planning. Even with all that said, I'm happy with this machine, glad I got it. 👍
