Solved: can I use the 150w charger for the Omen en- series

Hi,

Read more

I use my Omen en- series both for work and gaming in my spare time, I wanted to buy a second -lighter- charger to bring with me to the office, so I thought I'd get the 150w official hp one (out of the box the pc had a 200w charger) but I'm unsure if I can get max performance out of it for office work.

I know I wont get the best performance for gaming, but for office work (CPU and RAM intensive but minimum GPU work) will it be able to charge and get the best performance out of the AMD Ryzen 7 H ? (i think it should be a 45w max cpu right?). Will I spot the difference between the two chargers for said use-case scenario? 


Thanks for any advice!

Here are my specs:

Nome dispositivo OMEN
Processor: AMD Ryzen 7 H with Radeon Graphics 3.20 GHz
RAM : 64,0 GB 
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX - 6gb

For anyone who needs an answer for the same problem of mine, I was not satisfied with the quality of the answers provided, so I went and bought the 150w charger, I found it at discount so I just decided to go and try it myself.

And the result is: Yes, you can use a 150w charger instead of the 200w, yes it charges perfectly fine even under cpu and ram  intensive work. Maybe it took a little more time to charge than when using the 200w one but it was barely  noticeable in an office environment (You'd probably keep it plugged in anyways).

TDX are exported all over the world and different industries with quality first. Our belief is to provide our customers with more and better high value-added products. Let's create a better future together.

Definitely worth the price paid (50EUR on amazon) and the little performance hit (again, not suggesting you buy it if you have gaming in mind), but it's definitely lighter and more compact than the 200w one.

As I've said clearly, my intent is not to game on the machine while with the 150w charger, so I didn't test it in that scenario, but of course it would probably affect the performance.

Hi, as I stated in the question, my pc came with the 200w charger, I want to know if I can use a 150w charger (not the 100w one). I also specified that I am NOT interested in gaming with the 150w charger (so I don't care if that activity's performance would take a hit), I need it just for CPU/RAM intensive work (minimum Graphic Card activity).
