HP OMEN 16 Raider Intel Core Ultra 9 285H RTX 5070 16GB 2TB 16.1" 240Hz gaming laptop

OMEN 16 Raider laptop

The HP OMEN 16 Raider is a 16.1 inch gaming laptop built around an Intel Core Ultra 9 285H processor with 16 cores and a maximum turbo frequency of 5.4 GHz. It pairs that CPU with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 laptop GPU carrying 8GB of GDDR7 video memory. The system ships with 16GB of DDR5 memory and a 2TB PCIe SSD. Windows 11 Home and an Office 2024 license are pre-installed.

Thermals noise and power draw

The chassis measures 14.07 by 10.59 by 0.78 inches and weighs 5.35 pounds, giving the cooling system room to move air through dual-fan heat pipes while keeping acoustic output moderate during typical gaming loads. The 285H processor has a base frequency of 2.7 GHz and can reach 5.4 GHz when thermal headroom allows, so sustained performance scales with the laptop's ability to dissipate heat. Power draw rises with GPU utilisation but remains within the limits of the supplied adapter.

240 Hz WQXGA display

The 16.0 inch panel delivers a 2560 by 1600 resolution at a 240 Hz refresh rate, providing sharp detail and smooth motion for competitive titles. This combination of resolution and refresh rate is the single specification that determines whether the laptop matches a buyer's visual-performance target. Lower refresh panels will not offer the same motion clarity, while higher resolution panels at this size typically run at lower refresh rates.
