HP has cut $2,200 off its Omen 35L desktop, bringing the price to $2,799.99 from a $4,999.99 MSRP. The configuration pairs an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 with an AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D, 32GB of DDR5-6000 memory, and a 2TB SSD. It also includes a 1,000-watt 80 Plus Gold power supply, Wi-Fi 7, and a 240mm AIO cooler for the CPU.
The deal is notable because the RTX 5080 alone typically sells for between $1,600 and $2,000, so the full system price is close to what many buyers would pay for just the graphics card. The Ryzen 7 9800X3D is one of the fastest gaming CPUs available, which makes this a strong candidate for high-refresh 1440p or 4K gaming, at least on paper.
Tom's Hardware notes it has not reviewed this specific model, though it says HP generally uses standardized parts that are easy to upgrade. One commenter on the article counters that HP often uses proprietary motherboards and cases, which could reduce the system's long-term upgrade value. That caveat is worth weighing before committing to a prebuilt over a custom build.
