Leading the way is the all-new OMEN 45K gaming desktop with its unique OMEN Cryo Chamber, offering additional airflow for its liquid-cooled CPU. In addition, it marks the first time HP is offering an OMEN ATX case on its own for those looking to build their own gaming rig. We had the opportunity to take a look at an advanced unit, which you can check out in our full review.
