PALO ALTO, Calif., August 16, 2016 - HP Inc. today launched a new class of gaming products designed specifically for those who demand the ultimate, immersive gaming experience. HP's new high-end gaming products - the OMEN X Desktop, OMEN 17.3 diagonal notebook, OMEN X Curved Display and OMEN with SteelSeries accessories - are engineered to deliver aggressive performance and the flexibility to customize every detail to intensify the thrill of each competition.

TheOMEN X Desktop was built for serious gamers who need fierce performance out-of-the-box in a fully customizable chassis - something not typically available from traditional PC manufacturers, said Kevin Frost, HP vice president and general manager, Consumer Personal Systems. HP's engineers combined a unique design that maximizes thermal management with support for industry standard components so that the true enthusiast can always be up to date with the latest hardware to maintain peak performance with a customized rig.

The OMEN X offerings are an extension of HP's unified gaming portfolio announced in May to maximize gaming performance per dollar. OMEN X delivers overbuilt and over-engineered products meant to deliver bold innovation in the gaming space.

Desktop Performance to Dominate Decisively

The OMEN X features the latest graphics technology up to dual NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 and up to dual AMD Radeon R9 Fury X to elevate the performance of any game with stunning visuals. The 6th generation Intel Core i5/i7 processor1 with overclocking capability2 paired with a VR-ready GPU will enable flawless Virtual Reality (VR) and immersive 4K experiences for even the most demanding AAA games.

HP engineered superior thermal management allowing customers to stay cool under pressure and get the highest possible performance and full potential of the hardware. This revolutionary thermal management includes a tri-chamber design to separate components and optimize thermals with dedicated cooling in each chamber. The OMEN X also includes support for up to three 120mm liquid cooling radiators with top mounted exhaust vents and a stand that lifts the case off the ground to help pull cool air in, allowing for maximum ventilation.

Other top features include:

OMEN Control software provides complete design control, allowing for custom LED light modifications and brightness adjustments in real time

Chassis adheres to industry standards for seamless upgrades and modifications

Tool-less access to the internals and a hidden toolkit in the chassis accommodates upgrades

The ability to build a PC from the ground up is crucial for true enthusiast gamers and one of the most significant differentiators of the OMEN X. Builders and modders can purchase an empty OMEN X chassis as a standalone option for a completely immersive do-it-yourself (DIY) PC experience. The standalone chassis provides the same thermal benefits of the tri-chamber design and industry standards, making a custom build as seamless as end-users expect.

To help guarantee every high-end PC gamer's needs are met with the OMEN X Desktop, HP is collaborating with Maingear to build customized PCs for the ultra-enthusiast. Maingear delivers exceptional build quality, and together with HP, gamers can design the ultimate custom OMEN X build. The Maingear OMEN X Desktop will be available to customers in early 2017 and pricing will vary.
