Hi @urbale,

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community.

 

Thank you for posting your query.

 

I am sorry to hear that your HP OMEN 16-ap AMD gaming notebook, which features a Ryzen 9-8940HX processor and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 graphics card, it's important to choose a docking station that can handle high-performance outputs and provide adequate connectivity options. 

 

Check your laptop’s USB‑C port

  • Ensure it supports DisplayPort Alt Mode (on Omen 16‑ap, it does).

Connect dock via USB‑C

  • Use the dock’s included cable for best bandwidth.

Attach external monitors

  • Prefer DisplayPort for high refresh rates.
  • In NVIDIA Control Panel, set monitors to use the RTX 5070.

Power setup

  • Keep the Omen’s 200W charger connected for full performance.
  • Dock PD will supplement but not replace it.

Driver/firmware updates

  • Install dock firmware and update NVIDIA drivers.
  • Check HP Omen BIOS for latest compatibility fixes.

Take care and have an amazing day!
