    Re: News - HP Omen gaming laptop launched

    My old HP laptop overheated and died about 4 years ago, it's still cooling down.

    Odd that they say the hot air vents away from the hands - I've yet to use a laptop that doesn't do that.

    Yes, but now it is a "feature"

    Another unnecessarily "thin" gaming laptop.
    Still, nice to see touchscreen

    A HP 'Gaming' laptop, eh. I think I'll pass, thanks. Same goes for that Acer mentioned yesterday. Both lost their mojo's many, many years ago -- but I digress lol

    Re: News - HP Omen gaming laptop launched

    after several HP dieing just right after the expiration of guaranty in people close to me and mine included, I don't see touching anything coming from them again.

    (mine was plagued by the fiasco of nvidia gpu failing circuits, that was melting on board because of cooling design fail. What hit me the hardest however was the solution from HP. To get a mobo replacement that cost half the laptop price, with the same faulty design )

    72 per cent colour gamut
    This means absolutely nothing. Which colour gamut are they talking about? Presumably either sRGB, in which case pretty rubbish, or AdobeRGB, in which case probably acceptable..
    Seems pricey compared to the one yesterday with the 4k screen!

    Never, ever buy HP. GUARANTEED to fail and no customer support. Terrible company.

    I'm truly suprised they have not had a law suit brought against them for burns inflicted on users by faulty design of their notebooks.

    Myself family and friefriends had similar problems, but not with Nvidia gpu. It's just that HP can't make the hardware, the atrocious design makes them a serious fire hazard.
