Performance Control with Thermal Control is available only on certain models, including OMEN 15-ek1xxx Laptop PC, OMEN 15-en1xxx Laptop PC, OMEN by HP 16-b0xxx Laptop PC, OMEN by HP 16-c0xxx Laptop PC, and OMEN by HP 17-ck0xxx Laptop PC.

Performance Control screen with Thermal Control option

Balanced: Suitable for common tasks. Fan speed and power to the computer is balanced depending on the requirements of the activity.
Performance: Suitable for gaming and content creation. Power is increased to the CPU and graphics to add maximum performance. Additional fan noise and heat is generated by increased fan speed.
Thermal Control:
- MAX: The fan operates at maximum speed regardless of the load, cooling the system as quick as possible. Additional fan noise and heat is generated.
- AUTO: The computer adjusts the fan speed depending on the load (amount of work it is performing). This is automatically controlled in the BIOS. This setting is the most efficient option for matching the required fan speed to the load on the system.
- MANUAL: Setting Thermal Control to MANUAL enables the System Fan Speed slide bar. Move the slide bar to adjust the system fan speed to your preferred fan speed range, reducing or increasing the noise and heat generated. The computer automatically adjusts the power to the CPU and GPU to match your preferred fan speed.
  - If you need higher performance, adjust the slider to the right to increase the fan speed. Increased fan speed generates more noise and heat.
  - If you need a quieter environment, adjust the slider to the left to reduce fan speed. Reduced fan speed lowers the performance of the computer.

Effects panel

Layers panel

OMEN Light Studio effects are layer based. Each layer contains one set of selected zones and one effect setting. Multiple layers are used with different zones and effect settings to create complex lighting effects for your devices.

The following menu items are available:

Create New Layer: Creates a new layer. There is no limit to how many layers you can create.
Eye icon: Show or hide a layer.
Effect icon: Indicates the effect selected for the layer.
Pen icon: Enables you to rename the layer. Every new layer is named New layer. Layers can have duplicate names or an empty name.
Copy icon: Duplicates a layer.
Trash icon: Deletes the layer. You can delete any layer except the last layer.
Three-bar icon: Click and drag this icon to rearrange layer priority. The layers are prioritized. For example, if overlapping zones are selected, the top layer effects overwrite the following layers.

Zone selection panel

In the Zone Selection panel, select the lighting zones for the layer. There are several zone selection methods. Click the icon for your chosen method.

Per-zone method
- Click each zone or key on a device.
- Press and hold ctrl to select multiple zones or keys.
- Click and drag the mouse to create a marquee area to select a group of zones. Press and hold ctrl to select multiple groups.
- If a selected area overlaps a previous selected zone, the selection is inverted.
Marquee method
- The rectangular marquee area can be moved, resized, or rotated.
- The marquee area is associated with the canvas, not the devices. If you move a device, the marquee area does not change and continues to apply the lighting effect only to the lighting zones within the marquee area.
Per-device method
- You can choose a device from the drop-down menu to select all zones on that device.
- You can choose All devices.
- You can choose select devices within a category.

Effects panel

The Effects panel is located on the right. After you select the effect type, the corresponding effect settings are displayed.

Note:

If you change multiple effects within the same layer, all settings revert to default. Each layer saves only the last chosen effect and settings.

You can select any of the following effect types.

Static: A static solid color is displayed on the selected zone. You can choose a color present or a custom color.
Ambient: Uses a real-time sample of the display to map the color onto the selected lighting zone. For example, the RGB keyboard can have lighting similar to the display. You can choose to sample the entire screen (including which display), or to sample only the foreground app. You can set the image sampling quality and sampling rate to get a balance between quality and performance.
Color Cycle: The selected zones cycle through a series of colors. You can choose a preset theme or customize the color theme using the Color Editor. You can also change the speed of the color cycling animation.
Audio Visualizer: Reacts to the audio output to produce real-time animation based on the sound frequency range. You can select either Waveform or Power Bar mode. You can also select solid colors, where you choose two main colors and a background color, or gradient color, where you customize the gradient with Color Editor.
Wave: Linear motion of a set of colors. You can choose a preset theme or custom color. You can select the speed and the direction (360 degrees) of the wave motion.
Breathing: An animation of two colors fading in and out. You can choose two colors, or set either one to random color. When random color is chosen, the Color Editor is disabled. You can also set the speed of the animation.
Blinking: An animation of two colors switching. You can choose two colors, or set either one to random color. When a random color is chosen, the Color Editor is disabled. You can also set the speed of the animation.
Interactive: The lighting is initiated by a key press. You can choose two colors, or set either one to random color. There are several types of interactive effects:
- Key wave: A circular ripple effect expands from the position of the pressed key.
- Key fade: The pressed key is lit for a time, and then slowly fades.
- Key wave (Filled): A circular filled area expands from the position of the pressed key.
- Key wave (Rainbow): A circular ripple effect expands from the position of the pressed key. There is a rainbow color scheme that cannot be customized.
You can adjust the speed of the animation. You can adjust the size of a key wave animation. The interactive effect moves across all available zones depending on the placement of your devices. The zone selection does not select the active lighting zones, but only defines which keys activate the effect. The interactive effect only supports per-zone selection.

When Interactive is selected, only supported keyboards (per-key RGB) are displayed. All other devices are disabled.
Image: Uses a sample of an image file to map the color onto the selected lighting zone. If you sample an animated GIF, the animation affects the lighting.

Most effects allow you to customize the color using Color Editor. You can any of the following to select and customize a color:

Use the color wheel to select a color.
Adjust the brightness on the horizontal slider.
Enter the RGB values for a color.
Adjust the opacity on the vertical slider.
Select a preset or recent color.
Customize a gradient. This option is not available with the Static effect.
