- A: AnswerAs a tech nerd and a former gamer, I got a gaming laptop in 2020 which was released in 2018. Even thought I don’t play games much anymore, today in 2023 I use it for college and I have no issues or complains. The thing with gaming laptops is that they are build for high performance, which means they have high quality parts, which ultimately means that the computer is able to breeze through normal tasks. The one issue is the battery life, some gaming laptops tend to die pretty quick but if you can adjust your setting and don’t have a problem carrying your charger, then it is a no brainer.

- A: AnswerThank you for the question. The RAM is not soldered to the motherboard. The Victus 15-fb1013dx has two RAM slots. One is occupied with 8GB of RAM. You can upgrade the RAM, up to 32GB. There is one M.2 slot for the SSD and you can change it if you'd prefer more than 512GB storage. We always recommend that upgrades be performed by professional technicians.
Answered by HP Team
- A: AnswerThank you for the question. you can upgrade the RAM to 32GB. You can leave the 8GB stick in place and add 16GB to the other slot, or replace the original stick with 16GB, and add a 16GB stick to the other slot. You just want to make sure the speed and RAM type of both sticks is the same (DDR5, 4800 MHz).
Answered by HP Team
- A: AnswerI don't know if this will help but this is what I did with my laptop, I decided to get 2 sticks of 16GB Kingston FURY™ Beast DDR5 memory for a total of 32GB and I upgraded to a Pro Level - 1TB PCIe NVMe Gen-4.0 x4 3D TLC NAND Flash 1GB LPDDR4 DRAM Cache M.2 NGFF (2280) Solid State Drive - Kingston. If you had to ask me if it was worth it the upgrades? I would respond in a heart beat, YES! just make sure when you upgrade wait till the items are on sale, for the SSD and the 2 sticks of RAM I got it for $160 all together on sale as to regular price would have been over $200, you don't have to go with kingston but i did my research and this is what i thought it was good for me.

Great option on sale, chassis/battery are okay
Its a great laptop if you can get it on sale, although if you want to play graphic intense games, i'd recommend you use the laptop plugged into a wall. The battery will drain quickly and won't operate at peak performance if run strictly on battery power for games. Depending on how you hold the laptop, such as gripping the frontal corners from underneath, you may bend the lower chassis, which can click the trackpad from underneath. I got this at 40% off for $480, and its definitely a worth purchase. Also, ive been running elden ring on it (after upgrading the ram to 16gb, which i'd recommend) and it can run at 1080p on med/low graphics. It comes with a 144hz screen, which is nice to look at, but it could be better in terms of color.

doesn't do well for FPS, but great laptop!
I bought this in September of 2023 and it's now March of 2024. I bought it for college and to play games in my free time. It has done perfectly for school, I'm not sure if anyone's school requires a Lockdown Browser but this computer supports it. it doesn't run high-intensity games like FPS well even on low graphics but it seems perfect for games like Terraria or Stardew Valley. The only problem I have is with the 2 fans at the bottom. They're both on one side which leaves the other side to heat up faster which is the problem it starts having with highly intense games that probably should be left for PC and console anyway. It has started getting hot sometimes during my school work but that's not often. I have not had it drop or get damaged really at all so I'm not sure about its durability with falls. overall, it has been a great laptop though! oh also, has a light-up keyboard!

Best Black Friday Deal
Incredible gaming laptop for its price. It does exactly what's expected of a gaming laptop. For only 8 gigs of RAM it handles games nicely and I absolutely love the backlit keyboard. The noise on the fans are relatively quiet on average game settings. However the fans do get louder with more GPU intensive games at higher settings with a stable 80fps. Finally, there's no issues with CPU based games, with VSync enabled it keeps games fixed at 144fps making proper use of the 144Hz refresh rate. I play on a hard flat surface for the best cooling, but the exhausts appears to be facing flat down, so for optimal cooling I may require a lifted angle for better airflow.
