OMEN 15.6 inch Gaming Laptop PC 15-en1000 (2L1F2AV)
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Can i buy a 230W charger for my laptop because the original 200W can't keep the up with power draw it drains the battery even when charging and that causes stability issues. Also i would like to know how is the 200W charger keeping up since i track Watt usage trough msi afterburner most usage has been 100W on graphics card and 50W on cpu at the same time.

No.

These are the compatible power adapters that fit the laptop engineering specifications for the laptop

 

From the Maintenance & Service guide

https://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c06638088.pdf

AC adapter (Smart, PRC, slim, 4.5 mm)

Description and HP part number

200 W     L00818-850

 

150 W     L32661-001

 

It would be wise to use the MSI afterburner only with MSI products and not your Omen laptop.

What about this one https://www.amazon.com/Small-Tip-4-5mm-Charger-Gaming-M41303-001-Adapter/dp/B0BPJNPKZK

Also what software should i use to track my cpu and gpu in real time omen hub doesn't allow that and i don't think there are others from omen? MSI afterburner also allows to safely overclock my gpu and get more out off the computer with omen hub i can't do anything else than change fan curves.

This is real timeThis is real time

 

It is your gaming PC. Of course you can use you want to use or what suits your needs.

 

Using a non-compatible higher powered power adapter is not going to change manufacturer's circuit design parameters where discrete devices control how much power will be used by the circuit.

Yes it is real time but you can't have the overlay on while your playing or doing heavy rendering so you don't get the data at the time you really need it also there is no watt usage for gpu. It is sad that so good computer has been ruined by making the charger underpowered, maybe i need to look can i change those parameters. Thanks for the quick responses.
