Top notch components. Gets hot even on cooling stand. Still cooler and quieter than the Spectre 360 that burned out after 5 years of moderate use. Much more lively after ripping out included bloatware.
It is a very excellent laptop and worth the money. Surprisingly, it is very good with cooling, especially since laptops are not known for that. No need for any overclocking as it has very good performance and details.
The HP Omen Max is a sleek, fast, and reliable gaming laptop with excellent build quality. That said, there are a few drawbacks to consider. The laptop tends to run hot, even at idle, and temperatures can reach up to 100°C during gaming. Additionally, it ships with a significant amount of bloatware, and the Omen Gaming Hub is cluttered with features most users don’t find useful. This excess content also slows the app down, making it occasionally unresponsive. There is also some concern about the long-term reliability of the liquid metal thermal solution, particularly the risk of leakage. Although my unit is only one month old, I am still considering repasting with PTM 7950.
Be aware that if you want to up grade the primary SSD1 by yourself you have to remove the entire heat sink that covers the cpu and gpu then clean and put new approved heat sink compound back on after you just wanted to change the ssd1, ssd2 is un unobstructed and is a peace of cake to work with
