At CES 2026, US company HP announced three new laptop models. The headliner of the company's booth was the HyperX Omen Max 16, capable of squeezing maximum fps out of even the most demanding AAA games. Depending on the configuration, the HyperX Omen Max 16 is equipped with an Intel Core Ultra 200HX or AMD Ryzen AI HX series processor, as well as an NVIDIA GeForce graphics card up to RTX 5090 (total power consumption up to 300 W). The proprietary Omen Tempest Cooling Pro system with three fans changes the direction of the airflow from time to time. According to the manufacturer, this prevents dust from accumulating inside the device.

OLED panels are made from organic (carbon based) materials that emit light when electricity is applied through them. Since OLEDs do not require a backlight and filters (unlike LCD displays), they are more efficient, simpler to make, and much thinner. OLEDs have a great picture quality - brilliant colors, fast response rate and a wide viewing angle. OLEDs can also be used to make OLED lighting - thin, efficient and without any bad metals.and IPSIn Plane Switching (IPS) panels are an expensive option but they have excellent colour accuracy and far greater viewing angles then TN and VA panels (Not that we condone slouching while gaming). They are great for graphics design and photo editing. However, the only downside to IPS panels if that they can sometimes have a slower response time than TN panels. This is the only real problem if you’re a very competitive gamer or want to game in 3D. As of late “IPS” has become a big marketing word. Step into an Apple store and you would be hard pressed talking to someone that didn’t mention Apple’s “brand new IPS Displays!” In fact, Apple is probably one of the biggest marketers of this “new-found” technology. As a business person myself, this is when you have to tip your hat to Apple’s awesome marketing machine. Why? Well, because IPS is actually nothing new. In fact, this technology was originally invented in 1996 by Hitachi..matrices) is 16 inches, the refresh rate is 240 Hz, and the brightness is up to 500 cd/m². The list of features is complemented by a backlit keyboard and Omen AI technology, which automatically adjusts hardware settings to increase fps in games. The laptop will go on sale in the US market in the coming months at a price starting at $1,699.
