A:AnswerThank you for the questions. The Victus 15-fa0031dx has an anti-glare screen of 250 nits. The 3-cell 52.5wh Li-ion polymer battery has a life of 5 hours and 45 minutes (8 hours and 45 minutes for video playback) and supports fast-charging - up to 50% in 45 minutes. (Note that battery life can be affected by settings such as screen brightness, number of active tabs, use of wifi, etc.). The 150w Smart Adapter should not overheat. The loudness of the fan is subjective, but we can tell you that it ramps up (a low, droning sound) under heavy load and lowers when the load lightens. We are unaware of any HP model that crashes often. In that unlikely event, updating drivers or software, cooling the computer, and keeping it dust-free are great for preserving computer health. HP extensively tests its products and stands behind them with a strong worldwide warranty.
A:AnswerThank you for your question, Michael! The specs on the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 GPU state that it has a base clock speed of 1485 MHz and a boost speed up 1665 MHz. I recommend searching for "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650" to learn more.
A:AnswerHi Jim, you can add more RAM but the video card can not be changed. The CPU and GPU are soldered to the motherboard. This will be true for most laptops.
A:AnswerI'm sorry to hear that. There's really no way to determine what the problem is in a forum like like this, so your best option is to contact the HP support team directly so they can troubleshoot the issue in real time.
A:AnswerBecause laptop video cards are specific to only a limited number of models, you won't be able to upgrade the video to an RTX 3050. You can upgrade the RAM up to 64 gigabytes, and you can upgrade the SSD to whatever capacity you'd like that's available.
A:AnswerWhile you can replace SSD with any normal physical size SSD the upgrade task is not as easy as it might seem as drive is encrypted. Any cloning software that can clone this drive is going to cost you money. It is best left to technicians to perform as they should have the needed tools to clone this drive.
A:AnswerHi Brie! Thank you for your question. As system requirements for software constantly change, we are unable to answer questions about The Sims 4 compatibility. What is compatible today may not be in a few months. Please check the software The Sims 4's website for the most current system recommendations!
A:AnswerI wouldnt. The motherboard in this laptop supports dual channel configuration. While you effectively CAN install another 16 gb stick in the open slot, you wont get the benefit of dual channel performance. You are better off, slapping another 8 gb stick in there or doing what i did and yanking the preinstalled 8 gb stick and installing 2 16 gb sticks. Just make sure you use 2 of the same spec'd sticks.
A:AnswerHello. Thanks for your question. We apologize for the confusion. This Victus Gaming Laptop 15-fa0031dx does not have a customizable keyboard. It has a Full-size, backlit, mica silver keyboard with a numeric keypad. It is a not an RGB customizable keyboard.
A:AnswerYes, this is a dual channel motherboard with 2 slots. 1 is occupied by an Samsung 3200 DDR4. Max memory is upgradeable to 64gb. I currently have 2 16gb sticks in mine. CAS is CL22.
A:AnswerHello and thank you for your question. It is best to check with the software developer of the video editing app to make sure your system meets or exceeds the minimum hardware requirements determined by the video editing app developer. It is also good practice to use a device that exceeds the minimum requirements for better app performance.
A:AnswerThank you for the question. The HDMI port and built-in screen are connected to both of them simultaneously. The laptop automatically uses the dedicated GPU for more demanding tasks and the iGPU for less demanding tasks in order to conserve battery power. NVIDIA Ge Force GTX 1650 supports Advanced Optimus.
