Deal Details
Your RTX 5090 Deal Lover is back with another post!

Simply go here https://www.hp.com/us-en/shop/pdp...91wjaa-aba
  • There are no coupon to use for this one but it's actually GREAT DEAL and you cannot customize it.
  • There is a labor day specific coupon for GAMERS25 but it does not apply here and not necessary because this price is 35% OFF $7000 MSP!
  • Don't forget to stack your CC stuff.

Don't have EPP? It's still a GREAT DEAL for today and the situation we are in.

Compared to the previous Ultra 265K deal these are the following differences for $4560! Fantastic upgrade price if you look at the comparison and if you needed the extra config.
  • Windows 11 Pro
  • Intel® Coreâ„¢ Ultra 9 processor 285K (instead of 265K)
  • 64 GB memory (instead of 16GB)
  • 2 TB SSD storage ( instead of 16GB)

Of course, you still get this - NVIDIA GeForce RTXâ„¢ 5090 GPU



Just note these differences between AMD and Intel variants but keep in mind that AMD Variants this time has no extra discount nor is Ultra 265K config worth it right now. So hop to it if you wanted Ultra 285 for extra productivity workloads and if you needed 64GB and more storage anyway!


Why I like AMD over Intel (Core Ultra 7 265K) on this HP Platform?
  • Front I/O & Headers: Includes a functional front-panel USB-C port and a dedicated motherboard USB-C header.
  • Power Efficiency: Operates at a conservative 65W CPU base power target vs. the 125W power draw on Intel.
  • X3D Option for true Gaming edge: If you are a gaming, this is a no brainer to get 9800X3D
  • Full Modular 1200W PSU: The Ultra 265K I got had non-modular design and only 12v6 adapter, not the old style 8-pin at all!
  • Refreshed Case Design: Uses HP's updated chassis revision with subtle, cleaner front-panel aesthetics.

You should read some of the reviews, one is from October 2025 that Nay-sayers for this deal will mention.

Decide for yourself if you wanna risk this. There have been other reviews online that were more favorable but you can search that on your own

This OMEN 45L is mainly a 5090 value play, with 64GB RAM, a 2TB SSD, and Windows Pro making it stronger for productivity and parts value than for a clean out of box gaming build. The RTX 5090 is the star, and the OEM card is described as mostly metal and comparable to other 5090s. The Intel version is the normal OMEN 45L, not the MAX model, and the RAM is 4x16. Caveats include HP's locked down BIOS, a non modular Intel PSU, and recurring cooling complaints that can require airflow or cooler changes.

Can this be used with an .edu email?
4x16 for ram config.


Edu not stackable with EPP but you can try it edu has slightly more discount than mere mortals. EPP is supposed to be better than EDU though

Stand corrected on this deal! I updated the title with EDU included as well. I tested it on the last coupon deal and EDU didn't have the extra discounts, or the deal before last one.

Awesome! This is better deal on the ram and storage if you don't care about X3D as much and favors productivityOn cancellation - just a caution - just know sometimes cancel does not work. Cancel is a request to cancel, it's not confirmed until they come back to you via email with the full status. I've had success and failed cancellation before.

Yeah I saw it to be a request for cancellation. Hopefully it goes through or else I'm assuming I can still return within 30 days. Right? Funny enough it's been several days and it's still processing for AMD combo while Nvidia combo is meant to ship out tomorrow lol. I'm coming off Ivy Bridge with GTX1080 lmao. My only games are Dota2 and CSGO.

Possible restocking fee but just tell them you placed another order and you may be ok. Go chat with CSR to mark the reason

Oh, I think some people just don't like me. Evidenced in many threads already but they can't dispute the information that I provide. I don't go after them but if they do, they should expect a some good clap backs especially if they spread wrong info about the deal.I don't think people really thumbs down because they want to get the deals do they? Seriously? LOL!I don't think that happens here, but I do think some people don't like that I share so much information they want to do it for themselves, but I think what I post is could Info and it's in my mind. Less competition is good I guess but I make enough money and has a good enough lifestyles and this is just a fun hobby for me. I need to find great ideas of rebuilding these machines in cool cases/concepts! There is enough for everyone to eat so to speak. . I've gotten so much good deals here. I feel like it's something that I must share especially I love the deal so much myself and prices suck! How can anyone hate me for giving them FREE COMPUTER!! (or like 80% off) SMH... What is wrong with some people. This is why we can't have nice things! haha.#NoGateKeeping #RTX5090_for_all
I appreciate you sharing the deal and if anyone's actually shopped for an RTX 5090 that they could actually get within a few days recently then they would also understand this is a good deal if a 5090 is needed. While I'm totally neutral on the subject and don't get into politics or current events, my guess is you might be getting downvoted because of your Slickdeals name but I might be wrong.

I did buy this pre-built a few months back when the 265k, 32 GB, 1 TB and the non-modular PSU version was available for 3.2 k, and I still have it, Gamers Nexus was 100% correct, they use a vanilla Micro ATX motherboard, an extremely odd AIO, and the 265k is all right but not great for gaming and the system arrived poorly configured, the XMP profile wasn't even enabled in the bios.

I didn't shuck mine, instead I straightened out the whole cooling issue, swapped in a Intel Core Ultra 270k Plus. Everything runs fine now including gaming but I do hate the case so one of those and perhaps a full size ATX motherboard might be a future upgrade.

This isn't a bad deal just based alone on what an RTX 5090 costs right now and the HP OEM version of the RTX 5090 is pretty good, not flashy, no RGB but mostly metal construction and runs as good as any other that I have seen. Thanks for sharing.

Their restocking fee is 15% of the purchase. Just keep that in mind.

Price mistake? I'm sure HP will cancel the orders as it did many times before in the past.

Yes, they normally will charge the 15% restocking

But if you talk to the sales support person explain to them that you order a new one because you found something better on HP they could with approval - accept the return without restocking fee if they notate it in the account and this is only if cancellation isn't successful so you wanna do this ASAP


I've had a really good success with the sales support people. I even got an order in the last deal after the coupon. Expiration because I don't know why she got an override and gave me approval

A free keyboard once the hyper X 60%

Free USB-C hub plus $40 extra off


And the best one was she left me order a deal after coupon expired. So I got an extra 9800 X 3-D coming. Lol


I am a charmer

what can I say.

Do you mind telling us what was the cooling fix you did? Others may benefit from this info. I'd like to include it in the Omen "guide"

Yes on the username. lol

the 5090 in these are BIOS-locked to the PC it's shipped in and cannot be transferred or shucked.

Might get some coin for the RAM though.
