HP expands its Omen brand to include PC gaming components
HP is broadening its Omen gaming lineup with components for desktop gaming PCs. Previously HP focused on prebuilt Omen desktops and gaming laptops, so this shift will likely sit well with gamers looking to upgrade or build new rigs.
These components are now listed on HP’s website. They include a standalone 120mm RGB fan, a 120mm modular RGB fan triple pack, and a 1000W modular PSU. A modular 240mm LCD liquid cooling system and a larger 360mm RGB liquid cooling system are featured on HP’s website as well.
HP claims its Omen fans will cool efficiently thanks to their angular ring-shaped design that provides a high airflow. Additionally, their high static pressure will minimize vibrations. Each fan comes with 10 LEDs, so you’ll be able to customize them with up to 16.2 million colors and animations via the Omen Gaming Hub.
The company’s 1000W Omen PSU will come with modular connectors and a PCIe 5.1 cable that will provide up to 600W of power. The PSU will support the latest graphics cards with 12VHPWR and 12V-2×6 ports. A zero RPM mode will shut the fan off during low heat loads for a quieter power delivery.
The liquid cooling components will both feature Asetek 7th generation pumps as well as customizable RGB parts. All the modular components will be compatible with the Omen daisy chain system, allowing you to connect up to 16 fans per Omen Modular Hub.
As for compatibility, HP said the components will be compatible with desktop PCs outside of the Omen brand, allowing gamers to mix and match parts as they see fit. No word on the release date yet, but, according to HP’s website, these components are coming soon, so check back here for further details.
