HP OMEN 35L (GT16-1002na) / MSI Aegis ZS2 A9NVP-1407US

The OMEN 35L is sold with different processor, GPU, memory and cooling options; this entry is the Ryzen 9 9900X3D + RTX 5080 configuration.

Part of the 128 MB L3 comes from second-generation 3D V-Cache; the large cache reduces trips to memory, which helps especially in games. AMD rates default TDP at 120 W.

The Ryzen 9 9900X is a 12-core desktop processor; the B650 chipset on the AM5 platform leaves room for later CPU upgrades.

This is the desktop RTX 5080. HP does not state the card's maker or model.

HP notes the memory may run at 5600 MT/s by default with Ryzen 9000 and that 6000 MT/s requires enabling the EXPO profile in BIOS.

The MSI sheet does not give memory speed or module count. Owner reviews say memory may run at a lower speed out of the box and reaches its rated speed once the EXPO profile is enabled in the BIOS.

The standard ATX size makes later replacement easier; 80 Plus Gold indicates high conversion efficiency.

80 Plus Gold is a certification showing the power supply runs at roughly 87–90% efficiency at typical loads.

There is no USB4 or Thunderbolt port.

Warranty terms vary by country.

Warranty for the US SKU; terms may differ elsewhere.

The desktop RTX 5070 is a different, higher-power card than the laptop GPU of the same name. As a standard PCIe card it can be replaced later.

A closed-loop liquid cooler with a 360 mm radiator helps the 12-core CPU run under sustained load at lower temperatures and fan speeds.

Connect the monitor to the graphics card outputs, not the motherboard; one owner recommends using DisplayPort and setting the monitor refresh rate in Windows.
