Summary
The HP OMEN 45L GT22-3000i is a 2025 prebuilt gaming desktop pairing Intel’s Core Ultra 7 265K with an RTX 5070 12GB in HP’s large, toolless-upgrade 45L chassis. The thing to check before buying is the memory: the entry 16GB build ships as a single DDR5 module, so budget for a second stick if you want dual-channel performance.
Strengths
- The toolless side and front panels come off without screws, so component access is straightforward.
- The Cryo Chamber keeps CPU airflow in its own compartment, and the 360mm liquid cooler is a real differentiator at this price.
- The 850W 80 Plus Gold supply and large chassis leave room for a future GPU upgrade.
- Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.3 and a Thunderbolt 4 port cover modern connectivity.
- TechRadar’s 2024 test of the same chassis found near-silent operation under stress.
- HP gives a 1-year limited parts and labor warranty.
Weaknesses
- The 16GB build uses one DDR5-6000 module, which runs single-channel and may hold back CPU-bound games.
- The RTX 5070 is a custom HP board, so clock speeds, power limit and cooling are not publicly documented.
- The 2024 review of the same chassis found the front and side panels can come loose and called the port selection mediocre.
- The 850W supply is adequate now but can limit upgrades to higher-wattage cards.
- The one-year limited warranty is shorter than some prebuilt rivals offer.
- No independent instrumented test of this exact 2025 Ultra 7 265K and RTX 5070 build exists.

Full research notes and sources
Which build this is
This page covers the Intel model, OMEN 45L GT22-3000i, HP part A4ND8AV, with the Core Ultra 7 265K on Intel’s LGA1851 Arrow Lake platform.
The retail listing carries ASIN B0DX28YCNG.
Don’t confuse it with the OMEN 45L 2024 models (14th-gen Intel and RTX 40-series), the AMD Ryzen-based GT22-3000t, the GT22-3060 (RTX 5070 Ti, 32GB) or the OMEN MAX 45L with a Ryzen 9 9900X3D and RTX 5090. The “i” suffix marks the Intel build and the “t” marks the AMD one, so verify the exact letter before you order.
Cooling and the chassis
The 45L chassis is the same design HP introduced in 2022 and refreshed for 2024, and this 2025 build uses it unchanged. The Cryo Chamber isolates CPU airflow from the GPU compartment, and the 360mm liquid cooler carries an LCD screen on the pump block. TechRadar’s 2024 review of the same chassis found near-silent operation under stress and praised the toolless panel removal, but flagged front and side panels that can come loose and a mediocre port selection.
There is no independent test of this exact 2025 combination, and no published measurement of how much the Cryo Chamber actually helps CPU thermals or noise. Chassis dimensions and weight come from the 2024 review, since HP has not published a 2025 spec sheet that was accessible during this research.
Memory, upgrades and running costs
The 16GB build ships as a single DDR5-6000 Kingston FURY module, leaving three DIMM slots free up to 64GB. Single-channel memory can hold back CPU-bound gaming, so a second matching module is the obvious first upgrade. The toolless panels make that swap easy, and the large case and 850W supply leave room for a bigger card later.
Long-run costs are mainly electricity under gaming load, plus any storage or memory you add; the 1TB NVMe drive is the only one in the box. HP does not publish a replacement-parts list for the motherboard, power supply or Cryo Chamber, so out-of-warranty repair options are unclear.
Is it worth it?
At $1,799.99 (Best Buy, 2026) the GT22-3000i sits in the upper-midrange prebuilt segment. The RTX 5070 is a 1440p-capable GPU and the Ultra 7 265K is competent for gaming and productivity, but 16GB of single-channel memory is the minimum for current gaming, so budget for a dual-channel kit. HP lists other OMEN 45L builds up to an RTX 5090 at $3,599.99, and Newegg has a refurbished example of this exact configuration at $2,099.99. At this price, compare a custom build and other prebuilt brands such as Lenovo Legion, Corsair and Maingear before you commit.
