HP Omen 35L RTX 4060 Ti Gaming PC

HP Omen 35L AMD Ryzen 7 8700G RTX 4060 Ti Gaming PC with 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD

This PC features an AMD Ryzen 7 8700G CPU, RTX 4060 Ti GPU, 16GB of DDR5 RAM, and 1TB SSD. The AMD Ryzen 7 8700G is one of the latest Zen4 processors to be released and has a max boost clock of 5.1GHz with 8 cores, 16 threads, and a 16MB cache. It’s cooled by a 120mm tower heatsink fan, which should be more than adequate since the 8700G is a power efficient low voltage chip. This is a very capable processor that excels at both gaming and workstation tasks and is one of the first processors to be equipped with Ryzen AI.

The RTX 4060 Ti 8GB video card is about 5%-10% faster than its RTX 3060 Ti predecessor at 1080p and about 20%-25% faster than the RTX 4060 in 1080p. This is the best bang-for-your-buck Nvidia GPU for 1080p gaming, and it’s even fully capable of running games at respectable frame rates (in many cases 60fps or more) at 1440p, especially with DLSS 3.0 and frame generation enabled. Prebuilt gaming PCs equipped with this GPU usually cost between $1,200 and $1,500.

What’s new about the Omen 35L?HP touts the Omen 35 as its “first gaming desktop designed with Omen components”. What that essentially means is that many of the parts that were originally sourced elsewhere are now designed in-house by HP. That includes the power supply units, the case fans, and the cooling systems. The OMEN 35L itself is a good looking, mid-tower chassis with a sensible airflow design; two large 140mm fans bring air in from the front and a rear 120mm fan exhausts it out the rear. This particular model features a tower heatsink fan instead of a watercooling system. That is actually preferred because the AMD Ryzen 8700G doesn’t run as hot as other more power hungry CPUs. If you don’t need liquid cooling, air cooling is better because it’s less expensive and less likely to fail.
