Awesome Clean Look, Powerful with Room To Grow

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] HP’s OMEN 40L Desktop brings you top level performance all in a stunning mid-tower case which is perfect for all of your gaming needs. While there are some options of customization, the pre-built options seem to be fairly well balanced which means you’ll get a good overall value.
My OMEN arrived well packaged with just the right amount of support to ensure that it would survive the delivery. The interior cardboard support did a surprisingly good job of keeping the PC nice and snug. After removing the PC from the box, I verified the internal hardware to ensure no cables came loose upon transport which passed in my book.
The first thing I noticed was just how beautiful this case is and how thoughtfully it was engineered. It features a glass side panel (which is fairly common) to display the internal components, and plenty of ventilation both along the front panel and the top of the case. It also was designed with easy access to internal components (toolless access) on the front glass, left glass, and right rear panel.
Other things that made quite an impression on me, the GPU bracket is no joke with this case; while it’s made of plastic, its large enough to accommodate even the largest GPUs on the market. It provides excellent stability for the RTX 3070, only peculiar thing is that it uses a proprietary adapter to connect to the 2x 6+2 pin power supply cables which isn’t a big deal.
The OMEN’s CPU AIO (all-in-one cooler) looks amazing as it looks bold against the contrast of the black case. I was also happy with other components utilized in the build, such as the HyperX 2x8 GB DDR 4 (heat sinks and setup with dual channel to provide optimal performance), a terabyte NVMe M.2 Western Digital SDD for storage, and of course AMD Ryzen 7 5800x processor (not visible, however verified with cpu-z). Other notable components are the Cooler Master Power Supply along with Cooler Master fans, all excellent choice components which allows this PC to run flawlessly.
The default package does come preinstalled with Windows 11 Home (Professional would be a better), but works either way. Where, I found myself a bit disappointed was with the front panel IO. It’s great that it comes with 4 USB ports, but it did not have any USB-C ports which is fairly common with PCs at this level.
Additionally, while the OMEN AIO cooler looks fantastic, it tends to be louder than I would expect, especially when not underload, however it does a decent job of keeping the CPU cool when it is underload.
Gaming on the OMEN 40L has been fantastic, this PC is well optimized and it performs very well for its cost/value. I ran a quick synthetic benchmark test with UserBenchMark – and HP built a great PC: results indicating performance overall is 81st percental, meaning out of 100 PC’s built similarly, only 19 PC’s out performed this particular model.
I’m able game with this PC paired with a 34inch wide monitor (3440 x 1440 resolution) and still achieve an average frame rate of 165 – 280 FPS depending on the title. Performance would likely improve if just gaming at 1080P and I’m sure lower gaming in 4k, but stable and consistent.
This rig is perfect for gaming, and while it may not be using the very latest (most high-end components), it’s an excellent value as it performs well and the design of this PC affords you the ability to easily make upgrades in the future. If you’re looking for a great gaming no fuss PC, then this would make a great addition or upgrade!
Pros: Affordable, Lightweight

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Gotta admit - been wanting to get into PC gaming for a while, and when I saw this offering, I knew I HAD to get this. Huge shell, and a good amount of room to grow. The setup is beautiful and works great. Amazing graphics, and performance. I've heard people saying it doesn't have enough RAM but it works great for a beginner to intermediate gamer trying to improve their setup.
Cons: More RAM
Pros: Affordable

I bought this for my son. I wasn't quiet sure what I was looking for, just something that would be able to play his games, like WoW and CoD. It's been about 2 weeks now and he's so happy, all the games run fast and smooth. Thank you for the great deal!
