HP will initially release four products: two laptops, a high-end display, and a desktop tower. Although HP expressed its intentions to release products in the casual gaming market, all these four new devices are geared towards the higher end of the gaming spectrum.

The two Omen laptops are differentiated by their specs and size. The smaller model sports a 15.6-inch display and starts with an Intel Core i3 processor. The larger model sports a 17.3-inch display with a more powerful i5 processor. Both models can be configured to sport the higher-end i7 processor, 16GB of memory, a 4K display, and a GeForce GTX 965M graphics card, according to Ars Technica.

As for its price tag, the smaller model with its basic specs will cost $899.99. On the other hand, the larger model will cost $979.99. Both will be available on June 10.

The Omen Desktop will be released in August. HP is yet to announce the official specs of this gaming rig. Rumors claim that the tower will use the smaller microATX form factor and will also offer an option to upgrade to the latest Nvidia Founders Edition graphics card. A water cooling option is also widely speculated to be readily available.

Finally, HP also unveiled its first Omen monitor. Dubbed the HP 32 Display, the 32-inch monitor supports Quad HD resolution, and has an impressive 5-ms response time and a 75Hz refresh rate. It is also certified with AMD's FreeSync technology, according to The Verge. The official price of the display is yet to be confirmed.
