Best laptop I’ve ever had. I use mine for light gaming and graphic design, light video editing. I went with this system because I wanted some GPU performance alongside a strong CPU. I have paired this with a 144hz second monitor and it’s been a beast.
I upgraded the RAM to 64gb also. Slight overkill but it’s definitely helped when it came to multitasking and having multiple windows open across both screens. Would highly recommend even a year on from purchase.

This was a Christmas gift for my son and so far he loves it. He plays all his games with no issues. The only complaint was the fan is a bit loud.

The computer is excellent for the price. It is sturdy and responsive. I had to expand the memory to 32 GB to increase the RAM speed for a smoother experience. And the 512 GB storage is a tad too small.
I give it a 4 star because of the display. The screen is dull and hard to see when under bright light.

We bought this for my son to replace his older laptop that the screen had broken on. He plays some games, most of which aren't very demanding but which ran slow on his older laptop. So far, this Victus Gaming laptop runs all of his games smoothly while connected to an external monitor. We haven't tried any more graphically demanding games, but we're hoping that this laptop will be more future-proof if and/or when he decides to play them. Otherwise, the laptop handles school/office tasks and movies easily.

Surprisingly fantastic unit.
Was very easy to upgrade RAM to 32G and the M.2 SSD - went with a Crucial 2T. Watch YouTube videos to see how easy it is.
This machine is blazing fast. I do photoshop, premiere pro video editing, listen to streaming music and video. Love it. Replaced an older MSI that can’t be upgraded to Win 11.
I only wish it had more USB ports. It does have enough for the average user, but I have several devices: midi keyboard, Logitech c920 webcam, Wacom drawing tablet, and several external HDDs & flash drives I like to connect. I got a USB-C to 4 port USB A hub to accommodate. Wish it had thunderbolt, but again - the price point.
The lid/display does seem a bit flimsy, but with care it should be fine.
I highly recommend this laptop for creatives needing a windows laptop.
Build is good for a laptop in this price point. It’s Plastic not metal.
I have not played games on it so I cannot comment about its use for game play, but I imagine it would work fine.

This computer has great performance for the price and is an excellent computer if you are staying stationary, but the battery life is horrible even for a gaming computer. Other gaming computers i’ve used can last a work day browsing the web but this laptop lasts a couple hours of idling. if you are planning to use this at a desk then it’s amazing but don’t use this is as a traveling computer

Was a toss up between 2 and 3 stars for overall rating. Would probably give it 2.5 stars if I could.
Bought this laptop to serve as "general" home PC and the engine for a golf simulator setup. From a hardware perspective for handling those jobs, this laptop checks all the boxes except for a few. The display is just OK and the battery life is on the lame side for a new PC. It only lasts about 2 hours out of the box even if you're not asking it to do a lot.
All other specs were solid.
The big problem I had...and apparently is a bit of a common one...was it kept losing WiFi. And, what I mean by that is it kept losing the ABILITY to connect via WiFi as a network connection option. I don't mean that it just kept dropping its internet connection.
Spent several hours with HP support, researching online, watching videos, reading up on the issue, downloading new drivers, updating software...NOTHING worked. Sometimes it was there, sometimes it wasn't. Had to connect via Ethernet cable when it wasn't.
It was only when I happened to watch a YouTube video and read through some comments did I happen to stumble across a fix - a prolonged, hard reset of the power button. With minimal PC use, had to do it three times within a week of buying it though. That's too quirky of a solution and way too many times to do it on a brand new laptop. Plus, who knows how long that solution would continue to work. So, I ended up returning it. Still undecided on what brand/model I will try next at this pricepoint...maybe an Asus or Dell. Good luck to others that take the plunge.

I was looking for new laptop with little more performance, since old laptop is old and lagging big time. I saw this Victus on sale and the performance that I needed for to use. Two things that I will be upgrading soon will be more ram and bigger storage from 512gb to 2tb will do.
