The hp victus gaming laptop has good performance for it's price. It makes it q gpod budget friendly gaming laptop and has a good frame rate of 144hz. I would recommend this laptop for any beginners

Really powerful laptop; it really helps with design, modeling, and game developing apps. It is a blessing. Sometimes the battery drains a little fast, but it is very practical, and if you know how to personalize its energy options, it is a piece of art.

I am extremely happy with this laptop! The battery life lasts all day, the speed is super fast, and the display is bright and clear. It’s perfect for both work and entertainment. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable laptop!

I snagged this open-box HP Victus in "Excellent" condition from Best Buy for an absolute steal (~$575–$635 after tax), and wow—it's exceeded every expectation! This thing is a beast for both gaming and video editing, especially at this price point. Gaming performance is fantastic: It runs Battlefield 6 beautifully at high settings with smooth frame rates, no stuttering, and great visuals thanks to the RTX 4050's ray tracing and DLSS support. The 144Hz Full HD display makes everything feel buttery smooth, and thermals stay reasonable even during long sessions (fans get audible but not jet-engine loud). For video editing (my main use), it's a dream machine—Adobe Premiere Pro flies on this Ryzen 7 + 16GB setup. Timeline scrubbing, effects, color grading, and exports are quick and responsive, even with 4K footage (proxies help for heavier projects, but it's rarely needed). The Mica Silver finish looks sleek and professional too. Only minor nitpick: 512GB fills up fast with games and footage, and while 16GB RAM is solid now, I might upgrade to 32GB down the line when prices drop (easy access on this model). But for the money? Unbeatable value—handles modern AAA titles like Battlefield 6 effortlessly and doubles as a serious creative workstation. If you're hunting a budget-friendly RTX 4050 gaming/editing laptop that punches way above its price, grab one of these open-box deals while you can. Highly recommend—I'm thrilled with this beast! Would buy again in a heartbeat. 5/5 stars.

Needed a laptop for everyday and gaming. This absolutely fits the bill. Lightning fast, fantastic graphics, great battery life, sleek and sophisticated design. Absolutely my favorite computer I’ve ever owned.

I give it 5 Stars because I got it on sale for $699. I wanted a budget gaming laptop because my 12yr old laptop finally died...for $699 this is a decent deal. RTX 4050, 16GB DDR5 5600Mhz RAM. Wish it had a 1 TB NVMe, but its fine for the price. Gaming is actually pretty good on it. Was getting about 100 fps in Doom: The Dark Ages, High settings DLSS on quality. About 90 fps on Cyberpunk with same settings...probably gonna upgrade the NMVe and the RAM to 32 GB eventually. Better than i expected for the price.

Great computer, amazing graphics steady temps, I will say if u get it you might wanna get an extra SSD card for storage

The built quality is acceptable, I don’t mind. It looks sleek and good. The rtx 4050 mobile is still okay for gaming, I don’t play the most demanding games but I get 200 or more fps in csgo2 (I use a laptop cooler as well). For work it’s good, the cpu is pretty good. Overall i recommend to buy this when it’s on sale if you are looking for a budget gaming lap top. The only thing I could complain that its gaming application that helps you change the performance modes and stuff is not that good.

This is an amazing product! Very good performance, only downside is the battery life but overall it’s really good.

Its a solid laptop that runs most games with a decent fps count, it is limited with its battery life and 512gb storage

Really nice graphics, and overall great but it only last like an hour if your playing games but if hooked up your good the games crashed a few times butbthat may have been may internet overall great laptop

So far so good (: you get about 2-3 of unplugged game time and it runs perfect so far

This gaming laptop is great! I'm able to run Baldurs Gate 3 without any issues nor without the laptop heating up excessively. However I would not recommend doing a trade in with Best Buy. I sent in my old laptop which was fully functioning and in fair condition but because of a small fray in the power cord, the trade in was rejected. I reset my laptop and shipped it all for nothing. Better to keep your laptop or take it somewhere else.

Best Laptop I've ever had and I'm not even a gamer! Fast, reliable, Stylish with a beautiful design!!! You won't be disappointed!!!

Love this laptop. Almost zero noticeable lag. Multitasks well, I’ve had over 15 different browser tabs open and load times were fast. L (2g internet speed with Hitron Modem & Archer 11000x router setup). Gaming graphics are exceptional. I would certainly consider this a nice gaming laptop at an affordable price point.

i got this laptop mainly for the sims 4 but it plays everything pretty well. i love it. was bigger than expected and i didnt know my keyboard lit up which is so handy. only thing i feel like i looses charge so fast but i think your supposed to kwwp it on the charger when ur playing games. bc if im not playing anything it last a little while

So far so good. I've had a few hiccups and crashes starting up certain programs that should run easily (usually just a pre-installed program running an unnecessary process in the background that can get shutdown) but once the applications are running, they run amazingly well. As a Black Friday deal, it was an awesome upgrade from a starter laptop. Also, don't be scared of the 3-4 hour battery life; it lasts a decent time if you're not running it on high performance tasks.

Excellent build quality; the keyboard and mousepad feel smooth and don't leave grease marks. The keyboard is a good size, the screen displays very good colors, and the sound is excellent. The battery only lasts 4 to 5 hours with office use. The most annoying thing is that it gets quite hot during normal use, so much so that you can't rest it on your lap because the heat is uncomfortable. The storage is decent, although 1TB would be better. 4K video playback is quite good. If they improved the overheating issue, it would be even better, And the weight is also a bit of a nuisance when carrying it around.

Christmas gift to my adult grandson - He set up everything at my home and tested the computer - Loved it. Took it to his home and on college break tested by gaming. No glitches - just pure speed he tells me. Likes the keyboard. Good gamer! Great gift!

Overall, I think it's pretty good for a basic gaming computer. This is the first actual "gaming pc" I've ever had, and so far, I have no conplaints! It's able to run pretty hefty games with only minimal resolution issues (it could just also be the game itself causing the issue). I will say, the fans are a little loud and the bottom can get pretty warm when you're actively playing a game, but it calms down quickly once you close out of it.
