If we trust the information published on Twitter by the leaker @momomo_us, no less than six models are in preparation at HP, with four variations of the graphics cards for laptops from Nvidia, from the RTX 4060 to the RTX 4090. When it comes to gaming, a high-performance GPU is certainly essential, but it is not everything.

The HP Omen 17s will be powered by the mobile version of 13th Gen Intel Core i7 processors (Intel Core i7-13700HX) in configurations accommodating 8 to 16 GB of VRAM and up to 32 GB of DDR5 RAM. The base clock frequency will be 2.1 GHz for 16 cores and 24 threads. The prices revealed on Twitter are enough to make those who hesitate between a mobile configuration or a desktop PC think. Prices range from single to double, and even the entry level is expensive. The models presented here are perhaps the most richly equipped of a larger catalog.
