HP Pavilion Gaming 17 laptop review: A good display at a budget price

The Core i5-11300H meets the RTX 3050 Ti. While most gaming laptops priced under 1,000 Euros (~$1,002) show significant weaknesses in image quality (keyword: color space), HP claims that the Pavilion Gaming 17-cd2146ng offers an sRGB coverage of 100%. We put the 17-incher through its paces.

Florian Glaser, 👁 Florian Glaser (translated by Stephanie Chamberlain), Published 09/17/2022 🇩🇪 🇸🇪 ...

Users looking for a gaming laptop for less than 1,000 Euros (~$1,002) might have already come across the Pavilion Gaming 17. The cd2146ng model that we reviewed is equipped with well-balanced mid-range components, namely a Core i5-11300H and a GeForce RTX 3050 Ti including 4 GB of VRAM. 16 GB of DDR4 RAM (2x 8 GB in dual-channel) and a 512 GB NVMe SSD is also decent in this price range. The display is more than satisfactory: The matte Full HD IPS display supports 144 Hz and is supposed to reach about 300 nits according to HP. We'll analyze whether this claim is true in a moment. Meanwhile, it's a bit of a shame that our review model lacks a "real" operating system (only FreeDOS is on board). However, compatible Windows licenses - such as the one for the 11 Pro version that we installed later - can be bought very cheaply online.

* ... smaller is better

With a registered sRGB coverage of 97%, which is close to the manufacturer's specification, the HP laptop is leaps and bounds ahead of the competition. Both the Dell G15 and the Lenovo IdeaPad Gaming 3 only achieve around 60%, resulting in a much paler image regardless of the contrast, which only tends to be suitable for office and Internet browsing, but not for media consumption (videos, movies, games etc.). In contrast, the Pavilion 17 cuts a fine figure in every application.

There's nothing to complain about in terms of contrast, either. 1,426:1 is very high by IPS standards, and this value is only just surpassed by the Lenovo laptop. When it comes to brightness, the Pavilion takes the top spot once again. An average of 317 cd/m² isn't a top rate, but it should be sufficient for most needs as long as you avoid particularly bright or sunny locations. For comparison: The competition remains below 300 cd/m² on average.

The HP laptop scores even more points for its fast response times, which no competitor can match. However, the manufacturer could use some improvements in terms of color accuracy. The panel shows a slight blue tint out of the box, which can be corrected by calibration (there's a link to our ICC file in the upper right corner next to the brightness distribution chart). Viewing angles are in line with typical IPS standards. The 17-inch device doesn't suffer from excessive screen bleeding or flickering.

Display Response Times

ℹ

Display response times show how fast the screen is able to change from one color to the next. Slow response times can lead to afterimages and can cause moving objects to appear blurry (ghosting). Gamers of fast-paced 3D titles should pay special attention to fast response times.

↔ Response Time Black to White
8.7 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↗ 4.4 ms rise
8.7 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↘ 4.3 ms fall
The screen shows fast response rates in our tests and should be suited for gaming. In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.1 (minimum) to 240 (maximum) ms. » 20 % of all devices are better. This means that the measured response time is better than the average of all tested devices (21.1 ms).
↔ Response Time 50% Grey to 80% Grey
12.7 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↗ 6.1 ms rise
12.7 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↘ 6.6 ms fall
The screen shows good response rates in our tests, but may be too slow for competitive gamers. In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.165 (minimum) to 636 (maximum) ms. » 22 % of all devices are better. This means that the measured response time is better than the average of all tested devices (33.1 ms).

Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)

ℹ

To dim the screen, some notebooks will simply cycle the backlight on and off in rapid succession - a method called Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) . This cycling frequency should ideally be undetectable to the human eye. If said frequency is too low, users with sensitive eyes may experience strain or headaches or even notice the flickering altogether.

Screen flickering / PWM not detected

In comparison: 53 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 17271 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 3846000) Hz was measured.

Performance

With a quad-core CPU and a 4 GB GPU, the Pavilion Gaming 17 is positioned in the mid-range segment. 16 GB of RAM should be enough for the next few years. Things could get tight with the SSD when several (large) games are installed. Nevertheless, the storage and RAM can be exchanged without any problems.

Test conditions

Besides the drivers and updates that are automatically installed by Windows, we only installed the Omen Gaming Hub on the device. However, in the case of the Pavilion Gaming 17, there were no different performance modes available there as is otherwise usual for other laptops.

Processor

The Core i5-11300H is a powerful quad-core CPU that belongs to Intel's Tiger-Lake generation, which isn't quite as brand-new as it used to be. The 10 nm chip offers 8 MB of L3 cache as well as up to 8 threads that can be processed in parallel via Hyper-Threading. The processor behaved without any issues in our benchmark course. Its performance is similar to that of the Lenovo IdeaPad Gaming 3, which is also equipped with an i5-11300H. However, when it comes to multi-core applications, the CPU doesn't stand a chance against the old Core i7-9750H and the Ryzen 5 5600H (6 cores each) in particular. Nevertheless, the i5-11300H is a good all-round model.

Storage

The fast storage device should be emphasized positively. HP has equipped our review model with a 512 GB PCIe drive (M.2 2280) from SK Hynix (BC711), which achieves sequential read and write speeds of over 2,500 MB/s, something that only the HP Victus 16 can achieve. Annoying: Unfortunately, the existing 2.5-inch slot, which contains an "HDD dummy", can't be used since there's no suitable cable integrated.

HP Pavilion Gaming 17-cd2146ng: Ø3549 (3395.5-3560.33)

Graphics card

The GeForce RTX 3050 Ti from Nvidia is an ideal graphics card for casual gamers who don't necessarily want to play every new title at maximum details. The 8 nm model is based on the latest Ampere architecture and is equipped with 2,560 shader units. The Nvidia chips' performance depends very much on the specified TGP, which laptop manufacturers can choose freely within a certain range. In this case, HP opted for 60 watts, which corresponds to a medium level for the RTX 3050 Ti. Nevertheless, the Pavilion Gaming 17 performs slightly better in the GPU circuit compared to the 3050 Ti average.

Gaming performance

As long as you stick to the native 1920x1080 pixels and don't connect a high-resolution external display, the RTX 3050 Ti offers a solid 3D performance. Apart from very demanding or moderately optimized games like God of War, most current titles run smoothly, even at maximum settings, although the 144 Hz is often far from being fully exploited. The GPU reveals weaknesses in ray tracing in particular, which is shown in F1 22. 4 GB of VRAM isn't optimal for the long term, either. If you're looking for a certain degree of future-proofing, you should buy a graphics card with at least 6 or preferably 8 GB of VRAM.
