It's really hard to write you again. 

At the same time, without any hurry, if you find the right cable on Amazon.it, please send me the link. 

Bye the way, I'm on duty at the hospital tonight and Dr Sara is here. She wants to thank you for your help with her HP OMEN 45L GT22 and the GPU upgrade. 

Have a nice evening, ciao e grazie ancora!

@jjjjjjjjjjjjjj4,

 

I am pretty sure that your colleague's 800-watt power supply has three 8-pin PCIe power supply cables.

 

Here is the cable you should consider:

Make sure that the adapter's 16-pin 12VHPWR PCIe power connector cable has the correct configuration to fit the 16-pin power connector of the RTX 4070 Ti Super. Btw, in a best-case scenario, the 16-pin adapter cable is included with the purchase.

 

Wishing you well!

 

Finché c'è vita, c'è speranza,

  • Dear friend,
    How are you doing?
    Did you miss me?
    Well, here I am!
    Listen, I would like to tell you that I am writing to wish you a Merry Christmas, but unfortunately it is not only for that.
    First of all, my colleague, thanks to the cable you recommended, connected the HP NVIDIA geforce rtx 4070 ti super 16gb without any problems.
    Therefore, a big thank you from her, and from me too of course. 
    Now for the question of the day, don't hate me.
    Would you kindly recommend me the best 360mm AIO water cooler for HP OMEN 45L GT22 desktop PC?
    Personally, I really like Artic, but having to deal with keeping the i9-14900k overclocked temperatures in check, I don't know if it's good: I don't say great, not enough, but quite well, let's say that.
    There's also the Artic 420mm, which is spectacular in my eyes, but I'm afraid there's no room for it in the Omen 45L case, is there?
    Thank you for the precious advice I hope to get from you.
    Finally, I would like to sincerely wish you all the best for the upcoming holiday season and may the New Year bring you serenity in every way.
    Ciao!
    Luca

@jjjjjjjjjjjjjj4,

 

Yes, thank you: doing well.

 

Yes, I can recommend the best 360mm AIO water coolers for an HP OMEN 45L GT22 desktop PC, which does support up to a 360mm all-in-one (AIO) liquid cooler.

 

Here are some top-rated 360mm AIO liquid coolers for you to consider:

Additionally, consider the warranty and customer support offered by the manufacturer, as these can be important factors in your decision-making process.

 

By selecting a compatible and high-performing 360mm AIO cooler, you can enhance your HP OMEN 45L GT22 desktop's cooling efficiency, contributing to improved system performance and longevity.

 

And when it comes to the Arctic Liquid Freezer III 420, well, this YouTube video review says it as well as I could: Why We're Not Buying the Hype: Arctic Liquid Freezer III AIO Review.

Hello my dear friend.
First of all, although unforgivably late, my sincerest wishes for a happy new year.
Coming back to your valuable advice, as usual, I really have no words to thank you.

And I assure you, I am not a person who lacks words.
Like a little idiot child, regardless of whether it is the best heatsink compatible with HP OMEN 45L GT22 or not, I would have chosen the 360mm Arctic because you confirmed my fear: there is not enough room for the 420mm.
Now, as you know, HP OMEN 45L has the cryo-camber at the top.
To your knowledge, will it be a difficult job to replace the factory HP heatsink with the 360mm Arctic?
I wish I could thank you by telling you that you have a friendly doctor in Italy, but I sincerely prefer to wish that you never need me in that capacity - I am a heart surgeon!
Warm greetings and a sincere thank you, ciao!

@jjjjjjjjjjjjjj4,

 

No worries, I enjoy assisting other people with their computer related questions as much as I enjoy upgrading/building (gaming) PCs as my main hobby, Pagalo in Anticipo, amico mio!

 

Replacing the factory HP heatsink in the HP OMEN 45L with a 360mm Arctic liquid cooler should be straightforward, but there are a few considerations specific to the Cryo Chamber design:

 

Key Considerations

 

  1. Compatibility with Cryo Chamber:
    The Cryo Chamber in the OMEN 45L is designed to house a 360mm radiator. However, not all 360mm radiators are identical in size or have the same mounting hole alignment. Ensure that the Arctic 360mm cooler (e.g., Liquid Freezer II 360) fits within the dimensions and mounting brackets of the Cryo Chamber.

  2. Clearance and Space:
    The Cryo Chamber offers additional cooling space, but verify whether the thickness of the Arctic's radiator (including fans) is compatible. The Arctic Liquid Freezer II 360, for instance, has a slightly thicker radiator and includes a small VRM cooling fan that may need space.

  3. Mounting Hardware:
    HP systems sometimes use proprietary mounting systems for coolers. Ensure the Arctic cooler comes with the necessary mounting brackets compatible with your CPU socket. If HP uses a non-standard backplate, you may need to use or modify the existing backplate.

  4. Power and Control:
    The Arctic Liquid Freezer II series typically uses a single cable for power and PWM fan control, but the OMEN's fan and pump control might be integrated into HP’s BIOS. This could require manual fan speed adjustments or the use of third-party software.

  5. Aesthetics and Cable Management:
    The Arctic cooler comes with pre-installed cables for the fans and pump, which could require careful routing to maintain the clean look of the Cryo Chamber.

  6. Disassembly and Installation:

    • Removing the factory cooler involves detaching the radiator, pump, and associated cables.
    • Be cautious of pre-applied thermal paste and clean the CPU surface thoroughly before applying the Arctic cooler.
    • Follow Arctic's installation instructions for mounting the cooler and connecting cables.

Potential Challenges

  • Proprietary BIOS Settings: HP may have thermal management profiles tuned for the stock cooler, which might not perfectly match the Arctic cooler's performance.
  • Wiring for RGB (if applicable): If your Arctic cooler has RGB, integrating it into HP’s lighting system (e.g., OMEN Light Studio) might not be seamless.

Recommendations

  • Check the Arctic Liquid Freezer II 360's dimensions against the Cryo Chamber specs.
  • Confirm CPU socket compatibility (e.g., LGA1700 for Intel 12th/13th Gen CPUs).
  • Keep the factory cooler for warranty purposes, as HP may request its reinstallation for service.

 

Alternatively:

 

Replacing the factory-installed heatsink in your HP OMEN 45L with an aftermarket cooler like the Arctic Liquid Freezer II 360mm involves several steps. Here's a general guide to assist you:

1. Preparation:

  • Power Down and Unplug: Ensure your computer is completely turned off and disconnected from any power sources.
  • Open the Case: Remove the side panels of your OMEN 45L to access the internal components.

2. Remove the Existing Heatsink:

  • Disconnect Power Cables: Unplug any power cables connected to the existing heatsink or cooling system.
  • Unscrew and Remove the Heatsink: Carefully unscrew the mounting brackets and gently detach the heatsink from the CPU.
  • Clean the CPU Surface: Use isopropyl alcohol and a lint-free cloth to remove any residual thermal paste from the CPU.

3. Install the Arctic Liquid Freezer II 360mm:

  • Mount the Radiator: Position the 360mm radiator in the Cryo Chamber at the top of the case. Secure it using the provided screws.
  • Attach the Pump and Cold Plate: Apply a small amount of thermal paste to the CPU if the cooler doesn't come with pre-applied paste. Align the cold plate over the CPU and secure it using the appropriate mounting brackets for your CPU socket.
  • Connect Power and Fan Cables: Attach the pump's power cable to the CPU fan header on the motherboard. Connect the radiator fans to the appropriate headers or a fan controller, ensuring they are powered and can be controlled for optimal cooling performance.

4. Final Steps:

  • Check for Secure Connections: Ensure all components are firmly attached and all cables are properly connected.
  • Close the Case and Power On: Replace the side panels, reconnect the power supply, and turn on your computer. Monitor the system to ensure the new cooling solution is functioning correctly.

This video provides a step-by-step walkthrough of installing the Arctic Liquid Freezer II 360mm cooler, which can offer additional insights into the process.

 

Please Note: While this video offers general guidance, always refer to the user manual specific to your cooler model for detailed instructions.

 

Additionally, ensure that the Arctic Liquid Freezer II 360mm is compatible with your HP OMEN 45L, particularly regarding the Cryo Chamber's dimensions and mounting points.

 

If you encounter any difficulties or are unsure about any step, consider seeking assistance from a professional (i.e. local PC Service Store) or consulting HP's support resources to avoid potential damage to your system.

 

Kind Regards,
