HP OMEN 15 LGI 2017
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I was planning to buy the Hp Omen Accelerator for my HP OMEN Laptop but I'm not sure if my laptop is compatible with it.  The laptop I have is an HP OMEN 15 with a 1050Ti Graphics Card Intel I7 with 16GB RAM. Also Im not sure if it will work with another cable apart from the thunderbolt 3. IMG_4209 (1).PNG

What adapter? You cannot convert something thats not there to begin with.

Thunderbolt is not physically built into that motherboard so no adapter will work.

Hello @MILOSAFIE

 

Nope, the laptop must have Thunderbolt 3 for the Accelerator. That model is an older model, probably modified through some third party seller. It does not come with TB. Sorry.

But if I use the thunderbolt 3 cable and use and adapter will it work?
