Not a good deal at all. The product life cycle of both the CPU and GPU is over and soon to be antiquated.
I would not buy the Omen series either. HP disabled the BIOS so you cannot change the timing or overclock it. It's pretty ridiculous to me since you paid for it. Also, if you change the CPU, the system notices that and will not let you update your Windows at some point. Anyone looking at this, it's a hard pass.
beware, i bought an hp omen desktop and the geforce 3080 is running at 15 FPS, computer basically unusable. Bought a 8 year old asus card yesterday off fbook and now the computer runs fine. Nvidia will not replace the card because I bought it in an HP, hp warranty long gone by now.

So you bought a brand new system and it was running 15fps? Or did you buy a used system and it was running 15fps?

'Life cycle is over'... ??? My brother is still primarily gaming on a i5-4690K (yes mostly older games and really should update IMO) and I'm on a i7-7700K without any issues. You can be a tech snob if you want, but don't need to try and infect others.
Not a bad deal, but not great either and not for everyone.

Computer worked fine for 18 months, then graphics card died which is why it's running at 15 GPS on a graphics card test
