HP's Omen 35L is a compact-ish pre-built gaming PC running an AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D paired with an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti, priced at £2,599.99 / $3,199.99. It sits in a 35-litre mATX chassis — roughly 21 x 41 x 41 cm and 14.5 kg — with glass front and side panels showing off RGB fans and a CPU pump.
Inside, the board has two RAM slots loaded with 32 GB of DDR5-6000 MT/s, a 1 TB SSD, and one spare M.2 slot — though you'll need to pull the GPU to reach it. The empty PCIe slot at the bottom is nearly blocked by the graphics card shroud, so expansion there is basically a non-starter. On the I/O front, there's no USB4 — the Type-C ports cap at 10 Gbps — and the rear lacks a dedicated HDMI for integrated graphics, routing that signal through USB-C DisplayPort mode instead. You do get Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4, plus top-mounted ports for easy access.
The Ryzen 7 9800X3D is one of the strongest gaming CPUs available right now, and the RTX 5070 Ti is firmly in high-end GPU territory, making this a serious 1440p and 4K gaming machine. AMD's AM5 platform is confirmed to support up to Zen 7, which means CPU upgrade headroom exists — though swapping RAM will be necessary since both slots are already occupied. Pre-builts like the Omen 35L occupy an interesting middle ground: they cost a premium over equivalent self-builds, but they remove the assembly barrier entirely for players who'd rather just plug in and play.
For buyers who never want to touch a screwdriver, the 35L delivers strong out-of-box performance in a reasonably tidy package. Those chasing portability or wanting USB4 and maximum expandability will find the compromises harder to swallow at this price point.
