    Victus is terrible for gaming

    Terrible for gaming. If you want to surf the web and email, this will get the job done. If you want to play Diablo 4 on it, forget about it. With everything turned to LOW, the 92 bit memory bus of the video card kills it... couldn't even run it, so sad. If you want the best bang for buck gaming laptop, get the Gigabyte Aero X16, its worth every penny. But beware Gigabyte, hosing customers on service is how they shave the price off their offerings so they can give users a beefier experience.

    While this worked OK for a few months, I made the mistake of plugging in an R-45 jack to access a wired network. When I unplugged it, the laptop went into a permanent standby mode, power light continues to flash. Placed on charger and the charger light flashes. Unable to reset, and I will be taking this back to the store for a refund.

    Epic Performance; Runs Cool!

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Holy crap this thing is a powerhouse! I have an ASUS Zephyrus G14 (2023) which is a $1,300 gaming laptop, and the HP Victus outperforms it while remaining 30℃ cooler. It loaded Classic WoW 3x as fast, and the game looks way cleaner than my other more expensive laptop. I am very impressed with the Victus, and would highly reccomend anyone picking it up. I got it on a Black Friday Sale for a little under $600 tax included, and I could not be more impressed.

    Not a good Purchase even for the price. Constant freezing, random rebooting and BSOD. Tried every step with no luck besides a full reset. The kicker? No problems while gaming ( most of the time). Low effort tasks like explorer, clicking around the settings, ect ect... Crash.

    Overall really crisp laptop. Only complain is battery life when playing games. I play mostly league of legends and i can get 3-4 games out of it. (~2 hours). Other than that no problems. I enjoy it!

    No issues (as of having for 2 Months) or concerns honestly. Battery life is good without having to keep the charger on 24/7. Great speed and transition between multi-tasking. Connectivity to external devices has been seamless! Developer and Tech-savvy friendly. Would Recommend!
