Omen 30L Motherboard

[RedKage]

Hello, I have the Omen 30L with the GeForce 1660 Super, 8GB RAM 3200Mhz HyperX Fury, 1TB SSD, MORIA 3 MOTHERBOARD, 500W 80 Bronze PSU. I’ve since upgrade the PSU to a 750W Gold. Added an extra 8GB RAM. I plan on upgrading the GPU and CPU. But do not know what fits or what compatible? Is it asp possible to replace the Moria 3 motherboard with another motherboard that fits in the Omen 30L case?

@RedKage , welcome to the forum.

Here is a HP Knowledge Base article to help you know what to consider when upgrading the video card: https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Gaming-Knowledge-Base/Upgrade-Video-Card/ta-p/7481981

Your motherboard has UEFI: https://www.howtogeek.com/56958/HTG-EXPLAINS-HOW-UEFI-WILL-REPLACE-THE-BIOS/

So, this is not a problem for you.  You can follow the directions in the article to determine if a video card will fit into the space provided with good airflow.  Also, make certain that your power supply unit (PSU) has the appropriate 1x6-pin.8-pin or both, PCIe power connectors required by the video card.

HP has their motherboards made specifically to fit into their cases.  Therefore, the two problems that you could encounter with changing the motherboard using their case is the holes in the board not matching the stand-offs in the case and the front case connectors not matching.  Their boards are not necessarily the same as a retail version.
