The laptop's weight and fan noise were also mentioned as potential drawbacks by a few customers.
I bought this laptop to upgrade my DJ laptop. I have ran OBS, Virtual DJ, AND a radio station automation program all at the same time with zero lag, no freezing or stopping, and can still surf the net with ease! I also have a Windows Surface which basically sits dormant because I have fallen in love with my Victus. The speed is awesome! Graphics and videos are HD all the time. If you want to save around $1500, get a Victus instead of a Surface. This bad boy is now the workhorse of my Mobile DJ business! I use it to design flyers, photobooth templates, etc. i have tons of music files on it. It never lets me down. I had almost given up on HP laptops but the Victus is a great investment!

Ok, so I purchased diff models of Gaming laptops ranging from mSi to Razer this year and RETURNED THEM. This is the ONLY machine so far that maintains a HIGH FPS while staying COOL!!! I play Resident Evil 2 : Remake in 1080p / HIGH QUALITY @144Hz with high Settings (AO, Bloom etc) and I avarage 130-140 FPS ( I have a 144hz monitor). My mSi runs somewhat good too (GTX 1650Ti) but was going up to 95 DEGREES C* (CPU) which is why I stopped gaming on it but... THIS machine stays max 68c GPU / 70c CPU while running this game with good frame rate and stability. It's also VERY quiet while gaming, while Razer Blade / mSi GF didn't. I returned a Razer a few months back with a RTX2060 and it performed horribly after about 15mins gaming due to overheating... I was sad about that since it looked amazing from a design point of view. I am finally satisfied with the performance / value (Ports are a major plus) and FINALLY I have a laptop that stays thermally safe in longer runs. I do my own Benchmarks and YES it stayed cool in just about all the apps I tested (CineBench, Unigine Valley, Blender, etc...) at 1080p Ultra settings with high FPS. Do buy! A major plus if you are going to use it with an external monitor (144hz+) monitor like I am. ***The HDMI port will deliver higher performance from the RTX 3050 on an external monitor.

Great for gaming. Easy to upgrade ram and ssd. But the speakers are quite quiet and the screen is a bit dim.
