If you are a gamer the 144hz screen is something you need to have. For anything else it does not add much

15-dc0043np specs are coming up with some omissions so its hard to tell what specs it has. Same processor and memory as the -0029np. Yes the laptop is capable of having a hard drive and an M.2 SSD at the same time and if you want it that way either order it with dual drive configuration or order just the hard drive. Adding a hard drive to one with only an M.2 SSD is much more difficult and expensive as you have to order a mounting tray and cable that can be hard to locate and not real cheap.

So I should buy a pc that comes already with an HDD and the buy the ssd?

I forgot to mention the 3rd pc that is the omen 15-0059np.

Can you tell me if the monitor in the 3 pc that I mentioned is 144hz or 60hz?

Thanks for the help. 

HP Recommended

Its going to be a standard 60hz monitor although IPS so a cut above average. If it were 144 hz the specs would say. the -0059np specs also do not say which video chip it has. The GTX 1050 is a very entry level and unremarkable video card. 

HP Recommended

The chipset on - 0059np is the Intel HM370.

Is that what you wanted to know?? 

HP Recommended

Thats the main motherboard chipset...same on all models. I meant the video chip. nVidia what? 

HP Recommended

I can't find if you search this" dc0059np - 7MY00EA ", will apear the documentation of the product but I dont know if is this what you want.

Probably is because of the chip of gpu that the - 0059np is 90 euros cheaper than the - 0043np and the - 0029np, because the 3 are exactly the same except the hard drive.

Specs on all 3:

Other than the -0029np parts of the specs are missing. Hard drive or video card. The lowest video on this model series is the GTX 1050...all are discrete video. The 1060 is much better than the 1050 and actually provides somewhat decent modern gaming experience. You definitely want the NVME M.2 and the ones that speciiy a hard drive have it. We can probably find you the brackets and cable for a hard drive if necessary. 90 Euros is a huge price difference. You will at least get an i5-8300h, 256 M.2 NVME 8 gigs RAM and the GTX 1050 video which makes a pretty fair computer.  

HP Recommended

So to resume, it's preferable to buy the - 0059np or the - 0029np?

The -0059np it's 90 euros cheaper comparing to the - 0029np. To be in mind that both computers have discount, but without the discount the - 0059np is still 50 euros cheaper than - 0029np.

I suspect they are identical. HP will often give different model numbers to laptops with the same or virtually the same specs. It also depends on distribution channel so one seller can find themselves overstocked and undercut the others as you are seeing.
