HP’S CURRENT RANGE of Omen desktop cases are imposing black monoliths that genuinely do look like something out of a science fiction movie. We’re referring to the type that’s about unknowable alien technology indistinguishable from magic, rather than the affable uncle who makes an airship out of old gears and his wife’s underwear, but sci-fi nonetheless. That it wears its CPU cooling system, known as a ‘cryo chamber’—but actually just the usual radiator and fans—as a hat only enhances this feeling.
Luckily, the innards of the Omen 45L aren’t fictional; they’re functional. And with a 13th-gen i9, an RTX 4090 and 64GB of RAM, this one’s very functional indeed. There may be newer chips emerging onto the market, but the i9-13900K is not to be argued with, and matched with the RTX 4090, it becomes a dominant combination for 4K gaming or the creative arts—highres video editing or Lightroom’s AI noise reduction are no bother with this kind of processing power on board.

What exactly is an 'AI' PC?
AI, EVERYWHERE, all at once. That, in a nutshell, is what's happening to the computing industry. The PC, inevitably, is not immune. Later this summer, you'll be able to buy a machine that officially qualifies as an 'Al' PC, according to no lesser an authority than Microsoft. But you might be surprised at who's making it.

Intel Raptor Lake Core 19 Instability Problems
THE RACE BETWEEN AMD AND INTEL has heated up in the past few years as Ryzen processors have become increasingly competitive. The amount of headroom for overclocking has shrunk in response, and it seems motherboard vendors may have tweaked settings a bit too aggressively.
