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.

CES 2025 is a celebration of the latest tech from around the world, and this year HP brought OMEN and HyperX innovations to sate gamer appetites.

At CES 2025, HP revealed updates to its Omen and Victus gaming devices, including laptops, desktops, and new accessories from HyperX. These include laptops and PCs with the recently announced Nvidia’s GeForce RTX 50-series GPUs. Beyond the latest GPUs, we also get the latest processors from AMD and Intel in the 2025 lineup of HP products.

HP only has one all-new laptop in its Omen gaming line to show off at CES 2025, but it looks like a doozy because the company claims it’s the most powerful 16-inch notebook it has ever made.
