Speaking of the keyboard, we also love the backlight options that HP has given its users. Still, at least it's there as an option for gamers who want to customize their experience and we have to give HP props for that. While it's a generic chiclet keyboard, the presence of shortcut keys is a welcome addition (though we really didn't use them). We'd also like to highlight the keyboard.

In fact, you only stand to gain in notebook functionality with Windows 8 and its apps in mind. Its always great having input choices since Windows 8 is built from the ground up to take advantage of touchscreens, there's really no downside to having one on the HP Omen. We concede that there aren't a lot of great touchscreen games, but having a touchscreen for other uses far outweighs its limited functionality in the gaming scene. There hasn't been a gaming notebook with a touchscreen in recent memory and HP's decision to pack one in with the HP Omen is a good choice.
In fact, the machine's excellent build quality even extends to the touchscreen. What we're basically saying is that HP's nailed the design, quality and all the physical characteristics of the HP Omen. While the display has a slight wobble to it, the base is very solid and firmly grounded. The fact that the HP Omen is so thin belies the fact that the machine is very sturdy and oozes of quality.

While the MSI GS60 2PE Ghost Pro is lighter, it doesn't look as good as the HP Omen. The fact that HP went one step further and made the HP Omen out of quality materials is a testament to how focused the company is on aesthetics and build to differentiate itself from everything else in the market. We expected a cheap plastic bulky chassis, not the sleek and svelte build the HP Omen turned up in. Only the Gigabyte Aorus X7 Pro could somewhat compete aesthetically, but it doesn't better HP Omen's level of design details and it costs a whole lot more at S$3,999. We really didn't think a S$2,299 notebook could feel and look so good. Apart from its middling performance expected from its hardware choices, the design and effort gone into constructing the HP Omen was something that really took us by surprise. The actual pixel output rate also depends on lots of other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the max fill rate.While we'd like to come right out and say we're not thrilled by the HP Omen, that would be an outright lie. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - aka Render Output Units) are responsible for drawing the pixels (image) on the screen. The number is calculated by multiplying the number of Render Output Units by the clock speed of the card. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels the video card could possibly write to the local memory in one second - measured in millions of pixels per second. It is measured in millions of texels processed in a second. The better this number, the better the video card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). This number is calculated by multiplying the total number of texture units by the core clock speed of the chip. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum amount of texture map elements (texels) that are applied in one second. It especially helps with AA, HDR and high resolutions. The higher the card's memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general.
In the case of DDR type memory, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. The number is worked out by multiplying the card's interface width by its memory speed. Memory Bandwidth: Bandwidth is the maximum amount of data (in units of megabytes per second) that can be moved over the external memory interface in a second.
