Let me take a moment to thank you for posting on the HP Support Forums. 

 

I understand that you have an HP ENVY Phoenix Desktop - 860-010 PC and would like to know if you could lay the PC sideways and use it for gaming, etc. I'll surely answer this for you.

 

It is absolutely fine to lay the PC sideways and it does not impact the PC. However, please ensure that there is enough air circulation and the vents on the PC are not locked. 

 

I hope this answers your question. Please feel free to keep me posted for any questions. Good luck! 🙂
