The weather has been really hot recently ~
Although it has only gone a few degrees darker, my gaming laptop that has been struggling for several years has finally been laid off some time ago due to heat dissipation issues...
Details What's going on? For someone like me who often plays high-power games, if the cooling effect of the notebook is poor, it will naturally be easier to walk away...At this time, you have to find a suitable gaming notebook that has reliable performance and is easy to carry. , the important thing is that the heat dissipation capacity must be maintained~
So, I fell in love with the OMEN Shadow Elf 8 Pro high-performance gaming laptop. Not to mention it looks good, but its performance is also great!
Equipped with the 12th generation Intel® Core™ i7 processor, heterogeneous battle to win the title
Appearance design
For us young people, the appearance of the notebook is also one of the important considerations ~ such as low-key, luxurious and connotative black , or simple Bai Shenma, just want to take a look.
The two-color options launched by OMEN Shadow Elf 8 Pro are just classic black and frost white, which basically meet the aesthetic preferences of different players and can also be adapted to different usage scenarios.
The fuselage design has been optimized this time, the corners of the fuselage are more rounded, and it feels good to the touch. The groove design added to the opening position of the fuselage makes it more convenient for you to use. What is one-handed opening and closing? What does one-hand control mean?
Take care~
What is the joy of playing games? Atmosphere~
OMEN In addition to the 26-key conflict-free design of the keyboard, Shadow Elf 8 Pro also has a four-zone RGB adjustable backlight, allowing you to enjoy the pleasure brought by the keyboard light effects during the game. This gaming atmosphere is not Already have it?
Note: The frost white color version has no numeric keypad design and supports single-key RGB adjustment.
What’s more, the weight is only about 2.4 kg, and the thickest part of the body is only about 23mm. Even with my thin arms, I can hit dozens of them!
It's a "lightweight"~
You don't have to worry about efficiency issues such as office work and data transmission. 8 rich and diverse interfaces allow you to listen to music with headphones or read SD cards while charging your phone. Wait for the operation.
In addition, for an "Internet-addicted" girl like me who likes to play a few games for free, it is also important that in addition to the screen being large enough, the display screen is high-definition enough.
In terms of screen, OMEN Shadow Elf 8 Pro is equipped with a 16.1-inch high-definition large screen, which is also a three-sided narrow bezel design, with a screen-to-body ratio of up to 82%; in terms of display, it can be equipped with up to 2.5K (QHD) + 165Hz high Refresh rate gaming display, and 100% sRGB High color gamut and high color accuracy allow you to experience the pleasure of low-latency and smooth images during gaming. Not only does the color be full, it also reduces screen tearing during gaming. What does it mean to have a small body and a large field of view? , you can do whatever you want by playing games, watching TV shows, or watching live broadcasts!
By the way, it is also equipped with a new TNR camera, which uses hardware noise reduction technology. The picture is more noise-resistant in low light, and the picture is sharper and clearer. In other words, whether you are having a video chat with your friends or having a serious video conference, the 1080P picture clarity can let you let yourself go!
has said that my laptop was laid off because it was too hot in the summer and was "in disrepair", so heat dissipation is very important. OMEN Shadow Elf 8 Pro is equipped with and HP 's current most high-end Cool Storm cooling technology. It adopts a two-in, four-out and six-air duct design. This time it can't be restless anymore.
Isn't it inappropriate to turn a "tough guy" into a "warm guy"~
Since it is Pro, then the hardware configuration, performance release and other aspects must be worthy of this title, right? The actual evaluation results are more intuitive!
core configuration
Let’s take a look at the core configuration first. This OMEN Shadow Elf 8 Pro gaming notebook is equipped with:
12th generation Intel Core processor
, up to i9-12900H processor,
, up to RTX3060 RTX3070Ti Graphics card
optional 1TB PCIe 4.0 gaming grade SSD
standard 16G*2 DDR5 4800MHz dual-channel memory
standard Intel AX211 WiFi 6E wireless network card
equipped with the 12th generation Intel® Core™ i7 Processor, heterogeneous Battle of the Gods
Next, I will give you a real test.
Because I don’t want to study whether its heat dissipation can withstand it, so in the following content, we tested the results in a summer environment of about 0℃ high temperature .
Note: The following tests are conducted with 100% full power and connected to the 280W power adapter , with the OMEN Gaming Hub performance control set to violent mode.
game test
There are three games that Aimei often plays. Let’s test some data in the game today.
Game 1 - Cyberpunk 2077
K resolution, full high quality, ray tracing turned on, can run stably at around 60 frames.
The picture clarity is really good, and the game process is also very smooth. Even at a high temperature of about 30 degrees, you can still have a full experience.
Game 2 - Lost Light 2
At 2K resolution, turn on high quality, turn off vertical synchronization, turn on DLSS, the picture can be stabilized at around 70 frames.
Let’s just say that in this hot weather, playing games with this resolution is really a kind of enjoyment!
Game 3 - Everlasting
Competitive games like " Everlasting " have relatively high requirements on the number of frames. At 1080P resolution, full high quality is turned on, and the game can stabilize at more than 100 frames.
With the support of this frame rate, although my skills are not very good, I can keep up with the screen synchronization. If someone wants to "steal me", it will be very difficult ~
After experiencing these games, the overall feeling is quite silky. . What's more, with the light tracing effect supported by the highest RTX 3070Ti, there is no need to say much about the image quality.
In addition, OMEN Shadow Elf 8 Pro is equipped with HP's most high-end Cool Storm cooling technology. With all-round power consumption and dynamic adjustment of the fan, during the game, even at 0℃ In high temperature weather around , lags or frame drops rarely occur...
Benchmark test
Master Lu's benchmark
Use "Entertainment Master" to conduct a benchmark test, and the total score is as high as 1,469,108 points, exceeding approximately 94% of computers, but this value is for your reference only. In the test of
CINEBENCH
CINEBENCH, the R15 OpenGL score was 228.46fps and the CPU score was 2690cb; the R20 CPU single-core score was 684cb and the CPU multi-core score was 4921cb.

GeekBench is a commonly used tool to evaluate CPU. In GeekBench In the 5.4.5 test, the Core i7-12700H achieved a single-core score of 1774 and a multi-core score of 12411 on the OMEN Shadow Elf 8 Pro.
This result is quite excellent, but it makes sense when you think about it. After all, OMEN Shadow Elf 8 Pro is equipped with the 12th generation Intel Core processor, coupled with the hybrid CPU architecture of performance core + energy efficiency core, the highest improvement 40% performance, the game speed up to can reach 28% , the performance is quite OK.
CPU Single-bake
using AIDA64 stress test, running for 20 minutes, the CPU core temperature is 95°C, and the power consumption can be stabilized at around 80W. It can be seen that in violent mode, OMEN Shadow Elf 8 Pro can run games very stably even in high temperature environments.
GPU single-bake
using Furmark stress test, running for 20 minutes, the core temperature of GPU is 79°C, the power consumption can be stabilized at around 141W, and the performance release of the graphics card is also quite good.

uses AIDA64+Furmark double baking test, running for 20 minutes, CPU temperature 6°C, power consumption 31W, GPU temperature 85°C, power consumption 130W, the whole machine achieves a power consumption release of 160W+, this result is indeed A bit unexpected ~
OMEN The score of Shadow Elf 8 Pro is indeed higher than that of other products. Even in a hot summer environment, the graphics card can achieve full power consumption and maintain it for a long time. The various running scores are also quite impressive.
is really something~
battery life
It’s a bit tiring to play games for a day, so I have to combine work and rest, such as playing games and watching TV series... So Aimei started from about 11:00 in the morning to the afternoon. 18:20 After almost 7 hours of use, there is still about 10% remaining battery. This battery life is still good. As a gaming laptop,
is a very good choice in terms of performance and configuration. Coupled with various benchmark test data, it is also quite capable. If you are like me, you like to play games at home when you have nothing to do, and drive Heishenma with your friends during the holidays. Even after playing for a day, the battery life is ok. I won’t go into details about how to use it for daily use, you can understand it.
In general, OMEN Shadow Elf 8 Pro is already quite good in terms of overall performance, screen, and software configuration. In addition, in this hot summer, even at a temperature of about 30 ℃, its heat dissipation power consumption is very good. Still gave everyone a satisfactory result.
