HP has the best deal around on an RTX 5070 Ti gaming laptop as reported earlier, but you can also make this deal work with an upgraded RTX 5080 GPU as well. Right now HP is offering the OMEN MAX 16 RTX 5080 gaming laptop for just $1,469.86 when you add this keyboard/mouse combo to the same order and then apply coupon code: “NEWYEAR26“. This beats the Black Friday deal for an identical configuration by over $300. The RTX 5080 is an absolute monster of a mobile GPU that surpasses the previous generation’s top performer, the RTX 4090.

The OMEN MAX 16 is an upgrade to the OMEN both in terms of build quality and cooling potential. The OMEN MAX 16 is almost entirely constructed of aluminum, including both the top lid and chassis. The exception is the palm rest, which is still plastic so that it doesn’t get too toasty for your hands. The OMEN MAX 16 also features a new Tempest Cooling Pro design that combines vapor chamber cooling, redesigned fan configuration, and an improved thermal interface material to maximize heat transfer. Not only does this keep the laptop cooler during gaming marathons, it also allows for the current-generation graphics cards to perform optimally without throttling.
The GeForce RTX 5080 mobile GPU is better than the RTX 4090 mobile
The OMEN MAX 16 offers a robust cooling design that allows it to accomodate a more powerful GPU like the RTX 5080 without throttling it. The RTX 5080 mobile GPU is roughly 15%-20% more powerful than the RTX 4080 mobile GPU that it replaces. In fact, it’s slightly more powerful than the RTX 4090, which was the previous generation’s flagship card. You should be able to run any game out there at consistent 60+ fps framerates even if you decide to upgrade to the higher resolution 2560×1600 OLED display.
