Omen 30L GT-1139 Motherboard

[Loadie150]

Hi all,

stupid new here. Just bought an Omen 30L GT13-1139 2 days ago, I was shocked it was just shipped to me. In any event, I wanted to try to find out which motherboard is in it. I tried to Chat with an HP rep; however, that was an epic failure, she could only tell me to contact tech support. The only way I could find to do that is to provide the website with the serial number of the computer, which hasn’t arrived yet.

the reason I’d like to know it because the listing states 3 x NVMe M.2 slots, 1TB is already installed, and my math sucks but I don’t believe I’m that stupid. In the listing it says one available m.2 slot is available. That’s the reason I wanted to know which motherboard it has. Not sure where the 3rd m.2 slot went.

any suggestions would be appreciated!

Hi @Loadie150 ,

Nice PC.

You either have an Oasis MB (Link to motherboard specs) or a OasisOC MB (Link to motherboard specs).

Both MBs have two M.2 sockets available for NVME drives (data storage @ PCIe 3.0x4) and one M.2 socket used for a Network card.

You can add a second NVME data drive if desired.

Thanks very much for the info, greatly appreciated! Looks like I’ll have to buy a 2TB NVMe then

Hi

sorry,  @Grzwacz  @Loadie150  but there is normally no doubt

you can't have the model 

•  Oasis motherboard specifications

• HP name: Oasis

• SSID: 886B

because according to Hp the computer has a version K

https://www.hp.com/ca-fr/shop/product.aspx?id=328K4AA&opt=ABL&sel=DTP

Intel® Core™ i7-11700K

that's it ?

So you can only have the OC version

OasisOC motherboard specifications

• HP name: OasisOC

• SSID: 886C

Intel Core i7-11700K (Rocket Lake-S) 3.6 GHz base frequency, up to 5.0 GHz with Intel Turbo Boost Technology, 16 MB L3 cache, 8 cores

check your SSID

That said, with a 1TB M2 ssd, you should have enough space
on the other hand, you should rather add another HDD or SSD sata disk, to place the personal data there
And only use the M2 for windows, and the programs
In case of problem it can be useful to have the data on another HDD SSD

Hi @Loadie150 ,

You're very welcome.

Thanks very much for the response! 

I guess there is really only one way to find out what’s inside and that’s to wait. I have an older gaming computer with My games on it, that’s the one I want to add, but it’s a 1TB m.2 ssd and it’s getting about 90% full. Maybe add a 2TB and transfer the files from the older m.2 ssd to the new one. Also maybe buy an ssd itself and see.. only time will tell though.

thanks all! Merry X-Max and Happy New Years to all!

Hi @Loadie150 ,

Both motherboards support two M.2 PCIe 3.0x4 drives and one WIFI network card option. CPU options differ between the two motherboards.

I don't know why one has to parse facts not related to your question.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays.

If you have no reason to leave the M2 in the old one, why buy another SSD?
This makes you with both, already a lot of space
We will just have to try if it can work in the new one.
If it works, either reinstall the games mainly used on the new SSD, or try with special software to move them
Then after recovering, which was important, erase, format the old SSD
You already have a good storage base, and if necessary as I said add an HDD or SSD sata
A 2TB SSD, it's not cheap, it's up to you, it's your money
But with two of 1TB, why buy one?

Well, I did that; however, some really weird results.

I had 2 x m.2 Sid’s in the old gaming computer, one plugs directly into the ssd slot. The second one I had plugged into a plié slot and it worked well for I’d say 2 weeks, now windows doesn’t recognize it. It’s super weird. I updated the bios to the newest version. Then a ton of windows updates including to Windows 11. Now as I said that pcie slot doesn’t seem to work anymore. I can swap out the ssd and they work, when I plug the ssd into the pcie slot it doesn’t see it. Even with diskmgmt.msc I can see it I think in the bios, but not in windows at all.

I tried to contact HP, but was told it’s upgrade hardware and support isn’t their job, they only deal with the original hardware. They provided me with a 800 #, but that’s a pay site. I wasn’t impressed at all, one minute the ssd worked in the pcie slot, now it doesn’t. 

super confused right now…..
