[Review] HP Omen 16 with OMEN's unique identity melted

According to a global market research firm Strategy Analytics, global notebook shipments in the first quarter of last year increased an average of 81%compared to the previous year. Perhaps it is the biggest cause of Corona 19 changed everything in our daily lives. Students are online classes, work for home work, meetings and meetings are non-face-to-face.

As a result, the demand for laptops is inevitable. Perhaps the most cheaper office notebooks were sold for document work or video viewing, but there were a number of people who wanted high performance products such as graphic designers and video producers. Well, a hobby is a game, which has affected sales.

In the table above, Lenovo has the highest sales volume, and after that, HP is stuck and falls down. In particular, HP has a gaming brand called Omen and is in charge of its high-performance desktops and laptops. And today's HP Omen 16-B1020TX is here.

To see the most basic performance first, you need to look at GPU, CPU, and memory. The graphics card is equipped with the RTX 3050. It's an RTX 3050, which is the end of the 30-series, and it is important to note that the laptop version of the LAPTOP is attached to the desktop.

Nevertheless, unless it's a high-end game, it's a good performance to select 144Hz frame based on FHD resolution in a casual online game. Because of the high fever of the 30-series, the laptop usually has a laptop. The more high-performance graphics cards are installed, the more important the laptop's cooling becomes. How about cooling performance for this product?

HP Omen 16-B1020TX has greatly enhanced cooling performance compared to its predecessor. Compared to the previous model, the number of fan blades has been doubled and 2.5 times thinner to make it stronger.

The CPU is equipped with Intel Core i5-12500h. The main feature of the 12th generation Intel CPU is that the CPU of hybrid structure, which combines PORORMANCE CORE and EFIFICIENT Core, has greatly strengthened in powerful single core and multi-thread performance and full ratio. Thanks to this, it is up to 40% faster than the previous generation, which is excellent in gaming as well as work performance. In addition, it supports the latest technology, including Thunderbolt 4 ports and DDR5 memory.

The program used for HP Omen 16-B1020TX gaming notebook performance test is 3DMARK, which is commonly used for benchmarking and runs DX11-based Fire Strike Normal and Extreme version. The figures to find out the performance and temperature of the built-in graphics cards and CPUs in real time were measured as the MSI afterler.

The gameplay test runs three games. We've been running the MOBA genre League of Legends, Overwatch of Hyper FPS, and Action Adventure Genre Shadow of the Tomb Raider. League of Legends and Overwatch played games and measured CPU and GPU usage and frames, while Shadow of the Tomb Raider measured the frame through the built-in benchmark tool.

The resolution of the HP Omen 16-B1020TX is 1920*1080 FHD, and set to the in-game options to the phase, giving the CPU and GPU as much as possible. Below is the specifications shown through the display information of HP Omen 16-B1020TX and the CPU-Z program.

The League of Legends

Overwatch

Shadow of the Tomb Raider

Fire Strike Normal and Extreme Graphic Scores scored 12,929 points and 5,951, respectively. In this level, the performance of the RTX 3050 LAPTOP is slightly above the GTX 1060.

The first game that was driven by the League of Legends is set as an option among the in-game presets, but it does not fall below 200 frames. In terms of this, I think that even if you raise it as an upper option, you can fully print 144Hz, the maximum refresh rate of HP Omen 16-B1020TX.

Overwatch was 100%rendering scale and the best options. When I had a large six-to-six strokes in Hanamura, I maintained more than 144 frames. In the case of comparison or joining the team, the late 100 frames were recorded.
