You won't want to miss this huge saving on this formidable HP gaming laptop right now. HP has itself slashed the price of one of its top-spec HP Omen Max 16 laptops down to just $1,999.99, or slightly more if you opt for an OLED display, fitted with an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti and a top-spec Intel CPU, and securing you a saving of $800 in the process.

Your focus, first of all, should be on the GPU installed in this rig. The mobile version of the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti isn't quite an equivalent to the desktop version, coming with a pared-down set of 5,888 CUDA cores and 12GB GDDR7 VRAM. That aside, this is still a 115W GPU with plenty of power for high-resolution gaming, especially compared to running games on a laptop's integrated GPU.
You won't find it difficult to comfortably hit high frame rates on this HP laptop's native 1600p resolution. This current-gen Nvidia Blackwell GPU's DLSS 4 support will give you extra breathing room, too, if you find you need a bit more performance muscle in the most intensive games, with multi-frame generation giving you an AI-generated boost. As our HP Omen Max 16 laptop review explains, this laptop is an extremely competitive option for gamers who want a high-quality, high-spec build. The build quality will match the base model on offer here, but the GPU (and display) will vary, depending on the specs you choose.
That's because this laptop is heavily customizable, although the GPU is one of the few components on this laptop (at least, this spec of laptop) that you can't switch up. The other elements, however, are fair game, including the CPU you're getting as standard. The Intel Core Ultra 7 270HX is a 20-core processor, split between eight performance cores (which are the best options for gaming) and 12 efficient cores (which are typically best for multi-threaded work).
This HP Omen Max 16 build comes with 16GB of DDR5 RAM at this price point, although upgrades to 32GB, 48GB, and even 64GB are available, albeit with much higher price tags. Likewise, the base model here comes with a 16-inch IPS display with a refresh rate up to 240Hz. If you want to spend $60, you can upgrade to an OLED with a refresh rate of 165Hz, or $120 will get you an OLED with a 240Hz refresh rate.
The small compromise you'll be making to hit the under $2,000 price tag is storage: only a 512GB SSD with Gen 4 speeds is included for the base spec. 1TB and 2TB models are available as upgrades; however, if you have a bit of extra budget going spare. Other areas of the laptop's build quality are worth praising, however, with a full-size keyboard with per-key RGB lighting, along with a chassis that includes liquid metal cooling and a vapor chamber that should improve heat dissipation overall. There are also plenty of ports for you to hook up your peripherals, with two USB-A and USB-C ports apiece, along with HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort 2.1, and Ethernet connections, along with Bluetooth 5.4 and WiFi 7 support.
The $1,999.99 sale price for the base model of this HP Omen Max 16 laptop is a great price for the quality and specs you're getting here. If the budget allows, upgrading to the OLED will be a worthwhile improvement, which you can select when you head to the checkout. Expect to see this laptop, with its $800 discount, sell out quickly.
