Today, I’ve found an incredible deal on one of the best higher-end gaming laptops you can get if you prioritize value. This HP Omen features a stellar configuration and a gorgeous display at a fantastic price—get it now for just $1,250 at Best Buy, a whopping $330 off its $1,580 MSRP.
I’m not kidding when it comes to this laptop’s powerhouse performance for the price. It’s running on an AMD Ryzen 9 8940HX processor, a spacious 32GB of fast DDR5 RAM, and the superb RTX 5060 graphics card that just came out this year, unlocking access to Nvidia’s DLSS 4, ray tracing, and other gaming features. Throw in a 1TB PCIe 4.0 SSD for fast boot times, quick file transfers, and tons of space for apps, games, and everything else, and it’s an absolute dream.
And this HP Omen 16 doesn’t disappoint when it comes to visuals either. You’re looking at a 16-inch IPS display with a crisp 1920×1200 resolution and a speedy 144Hz refresh rate—all of this translates into a great gaming experience during boss fights and other action-packed scenes, plus it’s also great for streaming Netflix and YouTube.
This thing is packing ports, too. On the left side, you get USB-C video and a high-speed USB-A and a 3.5mm headset jack. On the right side, another high-speed USB-A. Then along the back, another high-speed USB-A plus HDMI 2.1 and a LAN port, plus the laptop’s smart AC charger port.
The HP Omen 16 is a bargain for $1,250, so grab it fast at Best Buy while you still can if you’re interested in a high-performance gaming laptop at a fantastic price. But if you’re on a tighter budget, check out our favorite gaming laptops under $1,000.
