HP Inc. has recently unveiled the powerful line-up of its latest OMEN and Pavilion Gaming innovations, raising the bar for high performance gaming.
Peter Oganesean, Managing Director, UAE and East Africa, HP, said, “The expansion of our gaming portfolio serves as testimony of our continuous commitment to the gaming community. With the growth of the gaming industry in the region, we have recognized that gamers have an increased appetite for more powerful and innovative products. With that in mind, we have introduced a much stronger line-up of laptops, accessories and displays, giving our end-users an opportunity to witness the highest levels in terms of product design, form-factor, engineering and performance.”
During the event, HP showcased the OMEN X 2S Laptop, which the firm touts as the world’s first dual-screen gaming laptop.
The OMEN X 2S is packed with features designed to target the needs of gamers, provides the edge needed to perform at the highest levels of the regional gaming elite.
Katia Merheb, Personal System Consumer Category Manager at HP – Middle East, said, “Research suggests that 82 per cent of people use their mobile phones for messaging during gaming sessions, a whopping 61 per cent listen to music, while 49 percent even watch game related live streams, video content or browse websites. Leveraging this data, we designed the OMEN X 2S, a product that introduces the world’s first dual screen gaming laptop to our region, opening up an entire new world for gamers and how they interact in-game.”
In addition, Merheb also noted that the OMEN X 2S offers gamers a real-time screen mirroring option that can cut and magnify parts of the main screen – including copying the map portion of a racing game – to the second screen.
The dimensions and composition of this powerhouse are equally impressive with a thickness of 20 mm and a full metal chassis that makes it the first 15-inch diagonal gaming laptop in the world to come with an applied liquid metal compound to the thermal system by way of Thermal Grizzly Conductonaut.
The result is phenomenal heat dissipation at 10 times the thermal conductivity of silicon thermal grease, up to a 28 per cent frames-per-second (FPS) performance boost over traditional grease when testing in Apex Legends, and an 8.5 per cent faster lead time in a Blender Benchmark test.
The laptop features OMEN Tempest, an overhauled advanced thermal solution powered by a 12V fan, which utilizes three-sided venting to enable five-way airflow to keep things ultra-cool. Realistic visuals are delivered by support for up to NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 and features Max-Q6 design.
Additionally, multitasking and grand-scale games – which take mountainous resources – have never been smoother, with up to the latest 9th Gen Intel Core i9 high performance mobile processor, powered by up to 5.0 GHz Turbo8, eight cores and 16 threads, and up to 32 GB of RAM.
