Gaming laptops are harder and harder to find at good prices thanks to the ongoing AI component crisis, but this HP Omen Max discount in honor of July 4 is pretty excellent. Right now at HP, you can save $1,300 on this Omen Max 16-inch beast with an RTX 5080, Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX, 32GB of RAM, and a 1TB SSD.

The headline spec on this laptop is the RTX 5080 GPU. Even though it’s only the mobile version, it still packs 16GB of VRAM and 7,680 CUDA cores, which should make light work of pretty much every title at the 2560 x 1600 resolution you’ll be playing.
While we haven’t reviewed this exact spec, the Omen Max 16 with RTX 5090 scored well in our HP Omen Max 16 laptop review. It is a little on the heavy side, but the aluminum enclosure gives it a premium look and feel. As you can see from our Geekbench testing, productivity performance beats out rivals with the same CPU in both single- and multi-core testing. That CPU is Intel’s Core Ultra 9 275HX, a capable 24-core processor with 8 performance cores and boost clocks of up to 5.4GHz.

The display here is IPS rather than OLED, but you’ll still get up to 240Hz refresh rates and 500 nits of brightness.
Other noteworthy features include 32GB of RAM, which is becoming increasingly rare in this economy due to the impact of AI on PC components. The 1TB SSD is Gen 4, so it should be plenty quick enough for gaming and workloads. You also get speedy Ethernet and Wi-Fi 7, as well as two USB-A ports, HDMI 2.1, and a 3.5 mm headphone jack.
For your troubles, you’ll also get a copy of the new LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight, a nice addition to any Steam library. As mentioned, this 34% discount is part of HP’s July 4th sale, so there’s no guarantee as to how long this deal will last. If you’re interested, act sooner rather than later.
