Sent me a lower specced laptop than I paid for.

This HP Victus laptop is a beast for gaming and multitasking! The 15.6" FHD 144Hz display is super smooth and perfect for fast-paced games. The AMD Ryzen 5 8645HS processor and 32GB DDR5 RAM handle everything I throw at it with no lag, and the 1TB SSD gives tons of space for games and files.The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050 is a game-changer for graphics—it runs even demanding games at high settings without a hitch. I also love the backlit keyboard, which is great for gaming at night, and Wi-Fi 6 keeps the connection fast and stable.It’s sleek in the Mica Silver finish, and Windows 11 Home runs flawlessly. Highly recommend this laptop for gamers or anyone needing a powerful, reliable machine!

I bought this as a portable workstation. I wanted the 32 GB of memory most, and I wanted a fast-ish processor for future proofing. It does the job very well. It boots quickly and runs fast. The display is clear and bright, although I'm not using its abilities.It's not a laptop; it's a portable. Battery life is only a few hours, and it's heavy. At the same time, I have no problem carrying it around.Different configurations of this model have different charging and battery BIOS options. Mine doesn't allow limiting charging to 80%, and USB charging doesn't seem to work. HP should fix this, but it's not really a problem. The--enormous--power brick has long cords and charges quickly.BTW, I erased Windows 11 and loaded Ubuntu 24.04. The only problem I found is that suspend mode doesn't work at all. I just shut down and restart; start up is fast enough that I don't mind.

With the 75W NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050, this laptop is able to play high-end games with high graphic settings. I tested it on Forza Horizon 5 with ultra settings and it ran very smoothly. I also tested Baldur's Gate 3 and it also ran well with high graphics.The fans can get a bit loud, but typically only turn on during intense activity, and they are good at keeping the laptop cool. The top of the laptop and the keyboard might only feel slightly warm after a long session.One annoying thing about the laptop is that there is no Fn lock button, so by default, to activate buttons such as volume or brightness, users need to press Fn+button to activate the relevant action.I was a little disappointed that there were no biometrics in this laptop, but I can live with that.For the price, it is quite good; it plays games and runs Gen-AI tasks at a decent level.

Came exactly how it was described. Runs very smoothly on high settings on most games. Forza 5 on most all high settings getting a smooth 160-175 fps with frame generation on. Battery seems like it will last around 6-7 hours as long as you turn the laptop on “ECO” mode in the OMEN gaming hub and have display on around half brightness.

The media could not be loaded. I was excited to use my laptop but when I tried turning it back on it doesn’t turn back on or it would take 10 minutes to turn back on, let’s be honest who’s waiting 10 minutes for a laptop to turn back on

Good laptop, value for money
