Overhauled HP Omen laptops respect that PC gaming is pricey enough already

PC gaming is expensive enough – especially when all you might have room for is a gaming laptop. HP has finally come around to this widespread attitude with a fresh take on its classic Omen line of gaming notebooks and desktops.

The firm is keeping it simple (enough) and approachable this year, issuing 15.6 and 17.3-inch versions of the Omen gaming laptop – based on its latest budget multimedia Pavilion line – and a single gaming desktop. It’s also known as the Omen.

Want a 15.6-inch HP Omen (read that review and you might) laptop? They start at $899 (about £611, AU$1,252). Need something bigger? The 17.3-incher goes for $979 to start (£665, AU$1,363). Both are slated to hit Best Buy and HP.com on July 10, though the 17-inch model asks for $1,029 (about £699, AU$1,433) on the latter.
