Literally Can Run Any Game & Edits Like A Dream
I edit & play games . I currently play gta RP (high 175Fps) , Fortnite (high 240 fps) , brawlhalla (high , 1000fps on unlocked fps) , warzone (175 fps) & every other game like the newer ones run great just lower the settings a bit it’ll run like a dream . Pc is pretty quiet when running most games & higher end games make it a little louder , just sounds like a fan is on but on low or “1” . I can still record & get these same results , my screen recording has never messed with my fps either so that’s a bonus . I’d highly Recommend this b4 for anyone not wanting to upgrade for a couple of years !! Really easy to install new graphics cards n replace things internally !

Whole lotta computer for the money!
I've watched this computer for some time now and finally purchased it. I'm not a gamer but having owned HP computers for the past twenty five years I know I am getting a quality computer. My philosophy has always been when buying a computer to buy as much power (processor) as you can afford and this one, the Omen 25L certainly has a lot of power and also a killer gaming video card. As I said above, I'm not a gamer but I do a lot of graphic work and the video card and i7 processor make a very nice combination. I have had this computer for about a month now and it has worked flawlessly. If I had any gripes it would be the absence of a SD card reader on the front of the computer. I had to purchase a USB C hub to make it easy to download my pictures. One other thing I should mention is the high quality parts used, like ultra high speed ram, large Gold rated power supply and so on. The expand-ability is also top shelf! I can highly recommend this computer!

HP Omen 25L desktop gaming computer
After much internet research with my twelve year old grandson for a computer/gaming system,we finally agreed on the HP Omen 25L system. He is very happy with the system and his mother said it was easy to set up. The price was reasonable and the website was easy to use. Also, shipping was quick.

Great for the price!
Great PC as usual. This is my 3rd Omen. Very quick, incredible load time, but hoping to avoid the blue screen. Two purchases lead me right to the blue screen. However, the CS team did not hesitate to provide replacements both times.Hardware is hardware, but I'm happy with the HP service knowing I'll be taken care of. Always run ALL system updates when first running your new PC. These have been sitting for about 1year, not an issue but requires multiple updates due to Garbage 11.

Love this computer! This is the second Omen we have purchased. The first convinced us to get the second. HP has always been a good choice for us and we will definitely look at them again for our next computer.

Great value
Checks all the boxes, value is unbeatable and works great for gaming and photo editing. Case is pretty compact and looks sleek without being too over the top with lights. Not having any overheating issues, so maybe this was a fix to the case implemented recently.

First Gaming PC! Bright & Colorful, yet adjustable
A really nice tower pc with enough USB ports for all my storages & devices. Fast setup & faster start up.
I was hesitated to buy a gaming pc due to all those flashy lights, but there is a pre-install apps on the computer that allowed you to adjust the lights and see the temperature, RAM, CPU, etc of your computer. You can switch the power mode of the computer to be less noisy or be faster, this is great since I'm using this pc for both games and works and the pc work great either ways.

GPU Issues, concerned about QC
A couple weeks after purchase the monitors (duel monitor, both Acer and relatively new) have been randomly freezing and signal will be lost while doing nothing resource-mongering or out of the ordinary. This prompted me to look into various forums and user experiences to find a lot of QC issues with some being specific to the GPU. I've had some other unprompted issues that required a total reboot as well. We'll see how things go over time but I certainly am weary. If it's just an occasional issue that doesn't evolve any further it's not too bad to deal with and everything else works well.

No idea
I can't play anything on this. I can't even have more than 4 windows open at a time for school work without it crashing. Going to buy some better ram to see if that fixes whatever poor ram is in it now. Chrome alone is pushing 20% GPU usage.

Works well but filled with unnecessary bloatware
The computer works well as is but gets weird when you want to put in new ram or other parts. Did eventually update the ram and was able to set the XMP profile in the bios settings. Everything works good. I do like that the CPU had a liquid cooler on it to help in maintaining temps.

I think it’s a great computer with many outstanding features. I think however for the price we pay, there should be either technical help or a software application provided to migrate from the customer’s existing PC to the new PC.

Great computer and great price
This is a very nice computer with a lot of excellent features. I upgraded my 7 year old HP to this one and am very happy with the decision. It has twice as much storage in the solid state drive as my last computer, but only 1TB rather than 2TB of my old computer, which is not a real issue since I do not use a lot of storage space. Because all of my programs can easily fit on the SSD , it is much faster loading. It has 16 GB of Ram and is quite quick in its functions. I would definitely recommend. Plus I love the white color and the clear glass panel on the side.

Great hardware and temps
Like the other reviewer said… HP evidently revised the hardware sometime in 2022/2023 to solve the thermal issues from older models of the Omen 25L, and it’s absolutely an amazing prebuilt now! Pretty much every journalist and YouTuber I’ve seen has the older model in a black case, where the CPU and GPU will thermal throttle from lack of airflow in the case. But HP has since made improvements to the thermal design by adding an intake fan to the bottom front of the case, and a liquid cooler AIO cooler out the top of the case, and I’ve never noticed any thermal issues.
I’ve been playing Portal with RTX, which is well known for being an extremely demanding game because of its full path ray tracing, and I’ve never seen the 3070 GPU temps go above 75 degrees Celsius even when over 90% GPU usage sustained over 2-3 hours of gameplay. Granted, I am reviewing this in March when the weather is still pretty cold (house temperatures around 65 degrees F) so I don’t know how the GPU temps will be in the summer.
I haven’t done anything demanding for the CPU yet but it is definitely keeping up with the GTX 3070. You won’t be CPU-limited with an i7-12700 here.
Oh and did I mention the whole build is super quiet even under sustained load? The fans have a low hum to when I’m in game but it’s seriously quieter than my refrigerator!
TL;DR: if you’re worried about temps based on other reviews you see on the internet, don't worry! Buy this PC! Performance and build quality are great.

Outstanding Machine for an Amazing Price!
I spent a month researching new Gaming PCs and had convinced myself I was going to have to spend over $2K to get what I wanted. As a 45 year old man who's been gaming since the early 1980s, this was appalling, especially considering $2K wouldn't even get a top of the line rig.
My company offers a deal newsletter called PerkSpot, and they had an HP President's Day sale featured a few weeks ago. When I checked it out, I couldn't believe the deal I saw on this HP Omen. I drank an extra cup of coffee, and then I pulled the trigger on getting it.
The entire process was effortless and the PC arrived a day earlier than expected, which was fantastic! The memory and SSD were a bit small so I bought 16 gb of RAM and an extra 1 tb NVME off of Best Buy's President's Day sale and they installed in less than 30 seconds. When I turned on the PC, there was no hum (which scared me). This is my first non-HDD system, and it's so quiet I forget that it's turned on. It goes from "off" to "fully-booted" in less than 15-20 seconds.
It plays every single game I play at max rez with no hitching at all. Every single game loads like a dream. I have 1 gig fiber from AT&T for internet, and I'm able to download 10-20 gig games from Steam and full install them in less than 3-4 minutes. (For comparison, the rig I replaced had internal SSDs and installing the same games took 10-20 minutes.)
I think my favorite thing on this PC is the minimal RGB. I'm a middle-aged man and I don't care for all the flashing lights... what little lighting this machine has is very complimentary and subdued, not loud and distracting. If I could change anything about it, I'd wish for a black case instead of a white one, but I absolutely love this machine. Great job HP!

Could have been great but settled for mediocre
A great opportunity that fell short. HP once again had a chance to make things amazing but with silly additions such as proprietary RAM and no RGB control on the GPU it fell flat on its face. I’m not sure who is in control of this silliness but it’s a poor choice that will ultimately drive away customers. The word is out and these games need to stop.

Could not be happier
I checked with a local PC shop to have a gaming PC built. When I told him the specs for this machine and the price he insisted I must be mistaken on the hardware. In the end he said he could not come close to the price. I am very happy with this machine. I play War Thunder at 1080P and around 300 FPS when the game is running on the highest video setting. I got this on sale and I believe it was a great buy. Could not be happier.

Fantastic for the Value!
Very quiet computer, can't really hear anything while running it. Two areas for RGB on the logos with 2 RGB Ram sticks. Can always add in 2 more Ram if needed, for smoother performance but it runs well on its own. I purchased during the ~$600 discount so that made it a whole lot more worth while. Comes with a plain wired white keyboard and mouse so all you'd need is a tv or monitor and you are good to go. The wires are fairly nicely organized though it was a bit cramped getting a 4th ram stick in on the far left side. Nice small computer that performs fantastically, I have no complaints. P.S. Windows 11 looks amazing, 10/10 for bringing the rounded corners back.

Really good for the price. I’m a part time software developer and it keeps up with my workload with no struggle at all. The main issue I have with the system is that it arrived with one of its rgb header cables disconnected, and while that’s a pretty easy fix for me, for the average user, it might not be.

Could have been better....
Good:
Nice clean good looking case, water cooling for CPU, RGB color control.
Bad:
could use more cooling fans,
no extra PCIe/NvME/SATA
Two extra memory slots but you can't even find same memory on HP nor other online markets.
For gaming PC it's good if you can get it while on sale and if you don't have to add any extra.
