Out of stock now but this is what you probably actually want, assuming your HP omen has a TB3 (even TB2 should be fine, though performance will be lower) port.

Thunderbolt performance penalty for 1070 is pretty minor (5-10%) if you use an external monitor. I have the exact box hooked. I get 120+ fps steady at 1440p with ultra setting. Typically right at 144 where I have it capped. When I play at 4k with ultra settings I get 80-120
The enclosure is effectively about ~$150.
There is a GTX 1080 version of this box too if you could somehow get it

One offered on Amazon for 1,000, which isn't awful since 1080 non-ti cards are going for 900-1000 now on Newegg.

I might actually end up sniping this one off Amazon...
