HP just announced the perfect gaming PC for me. The new HP Omen 35L Stealth Edition is a refreshed version of the HP Omen 35L I reviewed last year. In addition to updated internals, like the latest AMD CPU and Nvidia RTX 50-series GPU, this model has an all-black chassis, hence its “Stealth” moniker. This might not seem like a big deal, but to me, it’s a huge selling point.
I got to see this desktop first-hand at a recent HP event and was immediately drawn to this mid-tower. RGB lighting has become synonymous with gaming, which is all well and good, but I wouldn’t exactly call myself an RGB fan. I even turn all RGB lighting on my personal gaming rig at home. The Omen 35L Stealth Edition’s nondescript design almost makes it appear like an average office PC, which I think is quite impressive.

This PC doesn’t just have visual appeal; it also boasts components powerful enough to play the best PC games. There's a wide range of configurations, with your choice of up to a 14th Gen Intel Core or AMD Ryzen 9 CPU and up to an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 GPU. Choices for RAM and SSD storage are also plentiful.
Higher-end configurations will cost more, but the entry-level Omen 35L Stealth Edition starts at a relatively affordable $1,499. Like the previous Omen 35L, both the new model and the Stealth Edition will feature industry-standard parts, making it easier for you to upgrade or replace parts as needed. This was a big feature of the last Omen 35L, so it’s great to see HP continue this trend.
Both the standard and the Stealth Edition of the HP Omen 35L are expected to launch sometime in October. I gave the previous Omen 35L our Tom’s Guide Editor’s Choice award, so I have big hopes for its successor — especially the Stealth Edition. We’ll keep you posted with any updates, so stay tuned for more!
