Whether you’re a casual gamer relaxing after a day at uni or a professional live-streamer competing across the Oceania servers, having proper power distribution from your computer is crucial. Gaming PCs are valued for their ability to focus power and energy on games, enhancing performance and extending battery life (for laptops) while decreasing lag.
While this may seem like a trivial computer function, it can make an enormous difference in your overall gaming experience, particularly when playing on Australian servers where every millisecond counts.
A balanced resource distribution allows unused programs to run in the background with minimal energy consumption while directing power into the game or program you are currently using. The ability to keep programs up in the background without drawing the extra energy needed for gaming is one of the reasons gaming PCs stand out from other business or personal computers.
OMEN desktops stand out from other gaming PCs due to their ability to optimise power distribution while allowing gamers to customise and enhance the device to their specific needs. Here’s a closer look at how the OMEN optimises CPU vs GPU power distribution to provide users maximum gaming capabilities.
A computer’s CPU (Central Processing Unit) performs various tasks, including running programs, fetching data, and more. The GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) is responsible for precise functions like rendering graphics, enhancing visuals, and accelerating computationally intensive tasks.
When looking at the CPU vs GPU functions, it’s important to remember that they are both vital assets to a computer and can enhance function and gaming abilities with upgrades.
Computers like the OMEN 35L Gaming Desktop utilise intelligent power distribution systems to ensure users get the most out of the device. This OMEN gaming PC effortlessly utilises the CPU and GPU to prioritise tasks and programs based on your needs. It takes power away from background apps and tabs, allowing you to receive full power to programs you’re currently using, which is essential while gaming or live streaming.
The NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ GPU is lightning-fast, providing gamers with the speed and accuracy they need to stay competitive. The responsive power system monitors resource demands and quickly switches from CPU to GPU depending on the requirements. Programs like games, video editing software, and graphic renderings will receive power backed by the GPU, while software like spreadsheets, file organisation, and internet searches receive power backed by the CPU.
In addition, OMEN’s Performance Toolkit allows gamers to enhance features like network strength and software cooling with the click of a button. The impressive toolkit quickly runs diagnostics to help you eliminate unnecessary files, background programs, and power-draining software. This process keeps your computer running smoothly, prevents overheating, and provides impressive power allocation that keeps your CPU and GPU operating at full capacity.
The power balance between a CPU and GPU doesn’t stop at basic functions. Certain games require more work from the GPU, and others require more work from the CPU. In general, the CPU is responsible for powering games that deal with physics simulations, AI calculations, logic, strategy, and multi-player scenarios, while the GPU handles games that are heavily dependent on graphics, world-building, and visual aids.


For example, popular strategy games like Age of Empires utilise CPU power to achieve goals like gathering necessary resources to build towns, while games like Cyberpunk 2077 require powerful graphics backed by the GPU. The OMEN’s dynamic power distribution easily manages the proper flow of CPU and GPU resources, helping gamers enhance their skills and make the most of every play.
This is particularly beneficial for Australian gamers who often face unique challenges like higher latency when connecting to international servers. The intelligent power distribution system helps compensate by ensuring resources are allocated efficiently, giving you the competitive edge needed when playing with or against international opponents.
The OMEN gaming PC gives users the power to play their preferred games confidently. You can easily switch from strategy to graphic-heavy games without missing a beat with the impressive power distribution. This is perfect for those who enjoy playing various games and rely on the CPU and GPU gaming performance to enhance their gaming experience.
The OMEN Gaming Hub offers peak performance metrics whether you play multiple types of games or specialise in one. You can control metrics such as power output, network capabilities, overclocking, and more. This all-inclusive gaming hub provides instant feedback and diagnostic capabilities, keeping you at the top of your game.
The adjustable settings help you quickly shift priorities between CPU and GPU power, giving you more time to hone your skills and compete at your highest level. In addition to utilising the gaming hub, there are a few ways to optimise your gaming style and computer workload for Australian conditions.
When playing on OMEN gaming laptops, you can maximise your battery life by using low-power mode when you’re not actively gaming. This can increase the life of your charge by taking away power from background applications and programs. When you’re ready to take on your competitors, you can switch back to normal mode or even go through the gaming hub and select the performance setting to receive optimal power while playing.
For Aussie gamers who experience the summer heat, another way to increase the gaming experience is through the advanced thermal management systems available in OMEN computers. Whether you prefer a laptop or desktop, the OMEN lineup offers incredible thermal management systems that cool your hard drive and prevent overheating, even during those scorching summer days.
Keeping your hardware cool helps you maintain efficiency when switching between CPU and GPU power, which ultimately helps you achieve your gaming goals and provides an immersive experience to gamers of all levels.
Purchasing an OMEN gaming PC can take your skills to the next level as they provide optimal performance and unmatched customisation opportunities. It’s important to understand which specs mean the most to you to ensure you’re getting the best computer for your needs. When weighing specifications such as CPU vs GPU power, it’s essential to think of the types of games you typically play.
Gamers who prefer graphic-heavy games would benefit from a system with a powerful GPU, like the OMEN 25L Gaming Desktop with its NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 4070 Ti graphics card.
While these differences seem insignificant at first glance, they can significantly impact every second of your game, which could be the difference between victory and defeat, especially for Australian gamers who might face latency challenges when playing on international servers.


In addition to enhancing your game and providing an immersive experience, choosing the right computer for your needs can improve your performance systems, providing a longer device lifespan, which saves you money over time. Instead of pushing your CPU to the max to play graphic-heavy games, you can choose a computer with an advanced GPU, making you more efficient and competitive in every essential moment.
OMEN gaming PCs offer energy-efficient and power-saving capabilities, which is an essential feature for gamers who frequently travel or play in public places. Instead of worrying about a low battery, you can focus on winning each battle and taking your skills to the next level. Features like low battery mode, disabling background applications, and turning down screen brightness allow you to maximise battery life on OMEN gaming laptops.
These are all essential features for real-world Australian gamers. Choosing a gaming PC with easy and efficient features allows gamers to focus on their skills instead of spending precious time altering settings.
