You're getting the recent refresh of the HP Omen 35L, so this isn't just HP clearing out old stock. These specs are top tier, from the powerful 9950X3D to the unstoppable RTX 5080. The 35-liter case used here is a great option that eschews a huge RGB monstrosity for something a little more understated for your desk, with its cool black design a more refined option for somebody more interested in raw gaming power.
Save 47% ($2,600) HP Omen 35L: was $5,499.99 now $2,899.99 at HP US The huge saving on this HP Omen 35L gaming PC gets you a rig with an RTX 5080, AMD Ryzen 9 9900X3D, and 64GB of DDR5 RAM, along with two, 2TB SSDs, giving you 4TB storage in total.
That power is formed, front and center, by its CPU and GPU combo. Our AMD Ryzen 9 9900X3D review named this the middle child of AMD's 3D V-cache line-up on its release last year, offering epic performance power but at an oddly high price. That isn't a problem here, though, so we can focus on its power. Our CPU benchmarks confirm that this is a processor that continues to perform well against its rivals, especially compared to the Intel competition.
This Zen 5 processor has 12 cores, 24 threads, and a boost clock speed of up to 5.5 GHz. The more important thing for gaming, however, is that it features the boosted 96MB L3 cache that will reduce latency and deliver higher, more stable frame-rates while you're gaming. However, one thing to point out is that, unlike some of the eight-core X3D chips like the 9800X3D, the 9900X3D uses a dual-CCD design, meaning its six cores are split over two dies. Only one of those dies has the stacked 3D V-cache, meaning only six cores have the boosted cache, which explains why the 9900X3D isn't quite at the top, even if it does deliver decent performance.

There isn't much of a downside to the 9900X3D here, especially as plenty of pre-built systems at this price point are still sold lacking AMD's X3D chips at all. Any downsides are soon offset when coupling the 9900X3D with the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080. Nvidia's current-gen second-place GPU comes with 10,752 CUDA cores and 16GB of GDDR7 VRAM.
As our GPU benchmarks show, those specs confirm the RTX 5080 as a powerhouse option that will easily handle 4K gameplay, giving you high frame rates with ease. This Nvidia Blackwell GPU has raw power, but it also has the added functionality provided by DLSS 4, letting you max out your graphics settings even in the most resource-heavy games. That isn't going to be much of a problem anyway with an RTX 5080, but it does ensure longevity, meaning you'll have a card that should handle the demands of modern gaming for years to come.
This pre-built HP rig includes a number of features that round it out as a general workhouse rig, too. You've got built-in Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4 connectivity included as standard, along with 2.5G Ethernet. You've also got two, 2TB VMe SSDs with Gen 4 speeds included as standard, giving you a whopping 4TB in total for your games, documents, movies, and more. Given how expensive SSDs have become in recent months due to the AI boom, this is an especially nice touch.
