HP is announcing an updated lineup of notebooks at CES that includes new EliteBooks, a new Ryzen AI-powered ZBook workstation, and a fresh 16-inch Omen Max gaming laptop that can spin its fan in reverse to help clear out dust from its vents.

HP is sprucing up its Omen gaming brand with new iterations of its flagship Omen 16 laptop—featuring fresh silicon from AMD, Intel, and Nvidia—plus an appealing compact tower, the Omen 16L.

The feast for your eyes starts with its up to 16-inch 240Hz FHD (2560 x 1600) 500-nit OLED anti-glare display. Combining desktop performance and the convenient portability of a laptop, the HP Omen 16 Max can be configured with up to the latest AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 375 or Intel Core UItra 9 275HX CPU.

The final price including shipping (but before taxes) should be $1,209.99

The HP OMEN 16 can come in a range of processors, including AMD Ryzen AI options like the Ryzen AI 9 365, Ryzen AI 7 350, and Ryzen AI 5 340. These processors have built-in support for AI tasks with 50 TOPS (trillions of operations per second). For more demanding work, there's the AMD Ryzen 9 8945HX, which has more cores.

HP has introduced OMEN AI in Beta, calling it the company's first AI-powered game learning application that continually adjusts for optimised performance

HP is updating its Omen gaming lineup with two 16-inch laptops, a compact 16L desktop, and a lower-end Victus that now comes in three colors, including pink.

HP just announced the latest Omen Max 16 gaming laptop, a next-generation machine with the latest Intel Core Ultra 9 and AMD Ryzen AI 9 processors, up to 64GB RAM, and RTX 50-Series graphics cards. But I'm more interested in the cooling system.
