I just bought the Omen, it's expected to be with my by December 26 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
Love the comparison. I completely agree. I have best buy config with the mechanical keyboard and out of the 5 other omens ive had this is by far my favorite. Also played with the maingear at my local microcenter and the size weight performance screen and portability make it a strong competitor against the hp but that keyboard is such a strong turn off. If the reference machines can actually get a nice keyboard one year they will be a tough thing to beat.
agree
How would you compare a Lenovo legion 7 ryzen 7 5800h 3080 to an HP omen 17 i7 3070 in terms of performance and future upgrades. I can get the HP Omen 17 for £1700 -1800 here in the U.K. & the Legion 7 for E2000 do you think it’s worth paying the extra for the Lenovo 3080?
@@mikecoshan3752 looking same comparisoon
@@mikecoshan3752 depends on your focus. Intel gives more head run with gen 4 thunderbolt and stronger CPU performance. 3080 will give more performance in GPU bound performance but not much over 3070 and it will be handicapped in gaming performance with a ryzen chip. From what I've seen is the 5800h starts to become bottleneck and mid tgp 3070 after that there is a visible difference going 5900hx which is pretty on par with Intel 11800h. If gaming performance and Intel features is your focus go that route productivity which is slightly better on ryzen and battery life go ryzen but I think long term you will be better off going Intel...
Thanks for the video, I have the same laptop main gear vector pro 17 rtx 3080 with 11800h. where you able to check the rtx 3080 temperature in games, mine is reaching 83-85 C while on 115-130 watts, i had to limit its max temperature to 77 which will limit wattage around 105-110. Im wondering if it needs to be repasted or i should return the laptop, i got it open box in pristine condition for 1724$. I appreciate your input on this, thank you
You are the only one who did a video on maingear vector pro I have an idea to buy omen 17 with i9 and 3070 until now after watching this I am confused what to take. Can u say about the thermals in maingear vector pro and omen 17?
For me thermals are way important than performance
The OMEN is the better machine if the form factor doesn't matter.
Would the RTX 3060 variant of the HP Omen 17 with the same CPU worth the purchase in comparison to the Acer Helios 300 or Gigabyte Aorus?
Nice video. Just got the Maingear but you said it doesn’t come in 11th Gen CPU. It does.
Maybe I misunderstood you.
Nice video.
The vector pro comes with the SSD's running in Raid 0, out of the box. I say this because, like mine, ur memory can get corrupted. U can switch them to raid 1 in the bios, so recommend!
Hey nice videos always thank you. Just a question. Whats the color gamut of the maingear laptop?
can they handle continuous load like mining?
Should i go with this or lenovo legion 5 3070 lenovo 144hz screen or this hp ?
Great comparison! Thank you. The maingear with the 5800h and a 3070 is on sale for 1499 at microcenter. Would you recommend it? Or should I go with the Intel version? Thanks again!
Intel...thanks for watching
Hi I am new to the pc gaming world.
Just got this laptop 22 addition.
I want to upgrade the ram it's ddr5 but not sure what is compatible with it. It's a 17- ck1xx.
Thank for the great content👍
The Vector Pro 17 is the shit. I mean if you only want a laptop for gaming specs, the Vector will be future proof for a long time.
except the nvidia drivers are flaky, i was getting daily screen freezes/lockups requiring a restart until i rolled back to win10
@@rickdeckard1075 Yeah Windows 11 isn't good.
Can you provide information on what voltage of ram modules these two machines support? (1.2, I'm assuming?)
If you please don't mind me asking, do you recommend hp omen 17 or Asus ROG strix 17? For motion graphics ..?
I would go with the HP
That maingear internals, UGH!
Hahahahaha! Loved how Ed was "skirting" around his description (considered use of language) of the setup of the Vector.
My concern with the maingear is cooling, is it actually good?
Like looking at the internals when you opened it, the hp fans are noticeably bigger
@@legendaryjason9115 as i have opened both up myself they have very similar internal blade sizes, HP uses a Fibonacci spiral design to maximize air flow.. I ended up keeping the Maingear over the HP and so far I'm getting pretty great cooling
@@headofprops thanks man, I'll reconsider my options now
Also, the wattage of the GPU, is it as it claims to be?
@@legendaryjason9115 yes thee GPU runs the full advertised wattage of 165
@@headofprops aye man, thanks again 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
Honestly, was looking for reviews and honest replies on this laptop for a while
But between omen 17 and legion 5 pro with the same 3070 what do you prefer? I can't make my mind beween those two, thank you.
Legion5 pro hand up, you cab go with it, its a beasty machine.
It ticks all cases
HP did a stellar job with the keyboard design on the Omen line. I can't count the number of times I got excited about specs or other factors about a laptop, only to take a close look at the keyboard and it totally be a turn-off. I mean, who really needs a numeric pad on a laptop these days? Ok, maybe some -- but on a gaming laptop? Really? Thus, for me the Omen line is a clear win overall.
Are you going to trick them out? Like liquid metal for heat, ram, and any thing else to speed it up and cool it down.
no
I didnt watch all the video yet but the reason why hp has only one gen 4 nvme slot is becuase intel 11th gen only has 20 pcie gen 4 lanes and 16 are going to the gpu which leaves only 4 lanes left which all go to that one nvme slot. The main gear in order to have 2 gen 4 nvme slots means it only has 8 pcie lanes to the gpu. This would probably be okay for a 3070 but you might get some bottlenecking on the 3080 with only 8 lanes.
Also want to add there is no way a 230 watt power brick could power all that hardware at max performance so there is defenitly going to be sacrificing power to most likely the cpu while the gpu is getting max power.
Aye, mind checking out the Cyberpowerpc tracer edge with ,rtx 3080?
If they send it over I would be happy to
Vector Pro 2 has samsung ram with a Samsung M.2 ssd.
Hi,
Any clarification on whether G Sync or other form of adaptive sync is available on the laptop panel in the HP Omen?
No G Sync unfortunately to my knowledge.
Gysnc isn't enabled but I'm graphics settings in hybrid mode it refers to adaptive sync and Intel graphics program shows the monitor to have a refresh range of 60-165. So something tells me something isn't yet enabled but I do see no tearing in hybrid mode but more in dgpu... Not sure why it isn't an option though...
What's your opinion on the hinges of the Vector Pro?
I think they are good. The OMEN 17 is the better machine.
@@TheDigitalDigest is the build quality better to the point that I should pass on the main gear with a 3070 and 32gb ram, vs the hp with the same cpu but A 3060 and 16gb ram?
Why is your studio so dark? Not only this film, all your videos are like this... I like what you are saying, and I would like to say I like what you are showing - but I can't see it!
How in the world is the Maingear using a 230w power supply w/the 165w 3080, and the Omen is a 330w supply w/the 140w 3070? Are you sure the Maingear is using a 165w 3080?
100%
Some reviews found the 3080 only drew 165w for a few seconds then went to a constant 105w. A 105w 3080 is still slightly better than a 140w 3070.
@@WirableCrown1 Correct...there is a trade off to the Maingear being thin and light.
@@TheDigitalDigest I wonder if applying high quality thermal paste, or using liquid metal would let the 3080 run at 165w longer. Or Maybe a laptop cooling pad?
Really wanting to get myself this Maingear as a graduation gift
Omen 17 is the better choice.
@@TheDigitalDigest Surprised to hear that. I'll look more into the OMEN. How would you place the Legion 7i in comparison to the Vector Pro and OMEN 17? Looking for ultimate laptop for work and play.
@@cheesychester9647 The Legion is great as well...Best display of the group but the OMEN 17 has the best i/o of all 3. I personally would go Omen 17 for that reason coupled with best in class performance.
@@TheDigitalDigest How do you figure that when a comparable Omen 17 is over $700 more?
@@AllThingsFlightSim The performance difference between the OMEN 17 3070 and the Maingear 3080 is not as large a gap as you might think. They are very close.
I'd prefer HP. Never heard about Maingear. When you showed the Maingear chassis, I almost threw up. Looked like a rush job to me.
Agree
@@TheDigitalDigest picked up a MainGear 2022 gaming laptop and it’s a beast. This is the Vector Pro 2.
I’ve never heard of maingear but that laptop looks boring as hell. They need to work on that logo too.Not feeling it. I’d go with hp.
