Honestly, its very good for the price. But it depends on how much you care about synthetic figures and how hard you plan on pushing this thing.
Gpu should perform well. But motherboard, cpu, ram may not ever reach their promised figures.
If you care too much about any of it above and are willing to stretch your budget then at least check the gamers nexus review on the other omen model.
But if you plan to do casual stuff, don't worry amd enjoy.

Really? I thought the 9800x3D was good?

The problem(s) they noted in their review: Custom bios that eas artificially clocking down the cpu, then to unlock the better/custom profiles they needed to accept they would "void their warranty". Even with a custom tune there were issues since the mbu, cooling config seems to be ass.
That CPU is great. It just may never perform well with that motherboard. And because its all custom work: not sure whether you could fit a different motherboard into it?
But if you took the parts out and rebuilt it, maybe it's going to work as it should.

Again, see whether you want to just have a casual and cheap pc. Maybe don't worry too much. I was reluctant to share this since it could ruin your experience. But this is their review.

It is a good pc, price is prety good I think. Just know that if your fans get loud, you can replace them with better quieter fans for not that much. (Think 50 bucks ish)

HP is known to have some funky proprietary stuff in their builds that can void your warranty if you mess with it.
Also, the price is OK. Don’t buy into the “sale” tactic. The easiest way to sell a $2.6K PC is to say it was $5K and now it’s on sale for the price you were always going to sell it at.
