- 2023 HP Victus 16 Review. This laptop features an RTX 4050 and an I7-13700H CPU. There's a lot of great things about this laptop but there's one thing holding it back.

What do you guys think of the HP VICTUS 16? Also make sure to like or subscribe if you enjoyed the video. Thank you for your time!
I'm a but disappointed. Previous versions were a bit better. It's too much overpriced.
I atleat believe they won't do such things with the Omen version of it.
How good is Lenovo loq laptop????? For medium gaming and office???
@MatthewMoniz Hi there, you said the wifi card is swappable. Does that means I can swap it to wifi 7 card in the future?
My model is a 16-r0016ns, wich has RTX 4060 and 144 Hz display, although its not great in colors and other stuff. I like the model but, like any budget gaming laptop, it has ups and downs. Among the weak screen (totally repairable with an external monitor), has only one storage slot with a fast 1 TB SSD (although for me isn't a problem, since I have 2 TB external storage for media and backups). The rear air vent is badly designed in my opinion, it seems to me that the bottom of the screen its in the way of air flow. Its BIOS is very weak, very few options. Only allows SO Standby mode wich only allows to see "balanced" energy plan in Window, If you disable S0, you can see the other Windows default energy plans but you won't be able to wake laptop from sleep state by any means. I've worked around that by creating an energy plan for gaming with customized settings, with a registry tweak, wich shows more options in Windows energy plans, one of them is setting the maximum CPU frequency (for both P and E cores), it works even with Turbo Boost Enabled or Omem Gaming Hub set in Performance mode. BIOS has the Battery Advanced Optimizer System, but battery still charges to 100% If you use your laptop plugged in most of time. Also, that system is auto, it doesn't allow you to set a certain percentage of charge. Undervolting or fan control is also not possible on this model. By the way, Omem Gaming Hub is the only way to control fans, once again, an automatic system. In short, my model is one of those that HP says ""don't worry about having a weak BIOS and almost no control of your machine, trust in HP, we do all the job for you". Of course, I'm liking its performance and cooling system is good too. I bought mine for 1115,65 euros, hence I can't ask more for a budget gaming laptop. Btw, I saw you talking about the processor, its strange. My model, If I use it without any restrictions, reaches 4990 MHz (its advertised as a 5 GHz max).
@@WillDragonPThello do u have any problems with your HP laptop? I just want to know cuz I am about to buy one HP 16 d0000tx 144hz full hd i5 12th 12500H RTX 3050 4GB ram 8GB (max 32) DDR5 type and memory 512GB, both ram and SSD have 1 extra slot. At the price of 670USD. Do u think it is worth the price? Thz
just a note : Costco is selling the Victus 16-r0073cl with an upgraded spec: i7-13700HX cpu, 32GB RAM, 1TB SSD and the RTX4060 GPU for just $1100 and it comes with a 2nd year warranty extension
Should i get it? Its going for 999 right now. I need for video editing
You think i should get it!?
Very nice@@starzeyel
@@angelwalker. Yes sirrr
its 9999
Laptops like this generally last a long time. Thats probably what hp are ultimately offering here.
True, you can also find detailed videos directly from HP where they show you how to switch the battery, ram, ssd, wifi card etc. The build quality maybe on the cheaper side but HP still wants you to upgrade/ repair and use their laptops as long as possible so big 👍 fot that.
Was thinking the same. Looking for a new HP after my pavillion finally gave up after 7 years
@@juhlian4255 I can recommend the victus 16, rn playing God of war on high 80-100 fps with dlss 2.5
Good review. Highlighted all the key points, easy for decision making.
If you are buying directly from HP you can customize and choose what screen you want to have from what i saw on different reviews.
Weird. We have 144Hz even down to the 4050 model. Wonder why it's different for this SKU.
Reviews are always great. I wish you would review the asus rog strix g16 with an rtx 4060 card
we have a 13650hx+4060 model with 2560*1440@165hz display at around $1000, sounds like a good deal
I prefer side ports, since I use an external monitor and have a vertical stand for my laptop.
First of all high refresh rate is not even all about games, the productivity or a regular usage of the computer is just drastically more satisfying compared to 60hz and second - I have no idea how 75/90hz isnt at the position where 60hz still stays, its been decades since 60 became standard, everything in tech world is evolving rapidly and regardless, there are modern laptops and displays that come with 60hz which feels just disgusting. At least 75hz shouldve been normalized like 5-10 years ago already, especially when just that 15hz makes a significant difference
Hi Matthew, great review, will that laptop struggle for live streaming mobile games via OBS? The game will be played on the mobile phone not on the laptop itself. Hope you'll find time to answer my question. Thank you sir.
If possible pls review the victus 15 . Planning to buy one of those.
I can pre-order this model in Europe for €1,299 (€1,194 with student discount) with a 13700H, 32 GB RAM, 144 Hz display and an RTX 4060, lol. Display and price critiques don't seem to apply in my case. Actually seems like a steal for these specs? Imagine EU getting a better deal than NA for once
build quality leaves alot to be desired.
@@derekhatakewell it doesn't cost alienware or razer money either,the issues like mentioned in the videos were display and the price,and i think for the 1100 euros and 144 hz rtx 4060 is a great deal
If you want hp that desperately just go for the omen. Victus is 200€ too expensive for it to be a solid buy.
Where did you buy it?
I bought mine with 144 Hz and RTX 4060 but 16 GB RAM, 1 TB SSD for 1115,65 euros.
I've got it and it's a very powerful little machine laggs spikes here and there when it gets hot but that's expected with a laptop
This review is 3 months old and already way outdated or reviewer just didn't take the time to research that these are fairly customizable on the HP website. 16" Victus with 32GB RAM, RTX 4070, 144h panels or greater (yes, these are customizable too! A fact that the reviewer didn't even mention), 1TB SSD for around $1550.
Thank you and you are right! I bought this one 2 1/2 weeks ago with an AMD Ryzen 7 7840HS CPU in Germany 1496 €. I'm so happy - this was such a good deal - there are no more available in this config anywhere in the country at this time. Unfortunately I didn't have the time to get past the Win11 installation (took no more than 10 minutes, WOW), because the laptop came without OS 🙂. I have a lot of Windows 7 licenses and I hope they still work.
just picked up one with a 3050, 8gb ram (ordered another 8gb stick for about $15) I5 processor, 144hz monitor. for $600 I'd say it was a pretty good pickup.
How do you like it?
@@allworksnew the processor isn't great, but with the extra ram, it's pretty good for an entry level gaming laptop
i heard that the wifi connectivity is pretty bad, are you getting issues with that?
@@prinzexisalowqualityytber It's not the best, but the router is on a different floor and pretty far away and it works fine for most applications. though you'd probably want to be closer for online games.
How’s going performance are u satisfying?
I love the minimalist look of this laptop
This regular spec is ridiculous. Costco had the Victus with i7 13th gen, 4060, 1tb ssd, 144hz display on sale for like $1200 last month...
Plus it has a second SSD slot under the left fan. Wonder why the other ones don't
Dang, I just look one up where I’m at and it also had 32gb of ram.
@@Kaizu823 Yeah forgot to mention! Even at full price, $1400, it's still a better deal than the HP version....
Also has the unlocked i7-13700hx.
I just picked one up from costco for 1099 today! I havent bought a new laptop in yeaaars. ExplorerPatcher is a must. Win11 UI is so bad
The SSD expansion is weird. I have this exact same model, except mine does have an expansion slot for a second SSD under the left fan. Maybe it's bc I bought mine from Costco?
Hi Mathew. Hi Jarrod! Can you please review the Asus Tuf Gaming F17 FX706, with 16gb ram, rtx 3050? There are not enough reviews on this laptop and I'm looking to get it by the end of the year and I want you to give a detailed review of it if possible. Thanks for reading my comment.
i have the victus 16 and tho i am not a hardcore gamer i use it for a lot of stuff from my mech eng studies [ auto cad ] rendering etc to coding binge watching and i really love it i have the 144hz version
para corregir la precisión del touchpad deben internamente agregan un cable que haga contacto a tierra, haciendo esto mejoraran enormemente la precisión, hacia guia por internet con ejemplos sobre este asunto.
what's your recommendation of 16" gaming laptop for the same price range?
Pls review the Victus with the 6gb 3050 and a budget CPU
Amazing Video!
Thanks!
Hello, i got the model like this HP victus 16 d0000tx, 144hz 16.1 in, 12th i5 12500H, 8GB ram and RTX 3050 with 4VRAM, the ssd slot is 512GB 2 slot, ram also 2 slot but I only got 8GB ram, for the price of 670? Should I buy it?
i thought the victus was known for its screen wobble , but seeing this video it looks like they fixed it in 2023
Laptop setup video?
Please review the 2023 vivobook pros , thin and loght with RTX 4050/3050
Would this be a better voice compared to the LOQ 15?
I got a deal for the HP Victus 2023 in France for €999 i5 13500H, RTX 4060, 16Gb 5200mHz DDR5 ram, 512gb NVME and 144Hz Display I think for the price there is no better option currently
Can i ask?
I buy that laptop from dubai
Then when we transfer here in canada why sometimes when i plug its was not charging? Any changes in settings need to do? Or what should i do?
Just picked the last with i7 13700, RTX 4060, 32 GB, 1TB and 144 Hz version for 1099$ and that compared to this one feels like REALLY CHEAP lol. Hope it works well. Worried about the panel, only 255 Nits...
Bro 1099 only???? Dayum
@@Ahmadmouniem_scarf Yeah man, Black Friday deals got insane. And regarding the nits worry, in fact, it's so bright, I was thinking it could be worse so totally recommended for a hight end budget gaming laptop.
that costco sale was goated
I feel uncomfortable with the wifi card and ssd placement of that laptop. And 60hz? Most cheap 1650 laptop offer 120hz+ already. This one looks like a bad deal for me even if they lower it to $999 with only one ssd slot I still think that this is still a bad deal.
I'm noticing it doesn't have a displayport and only HDMI. Is that a deal breaker ?
mine opens with one finger and ryzen5 7535hs w geforce2050 and 144hz refreash great laptop
This thing is $960 on my college library website. It's the best one on there cause all the others have I3s and crap like that.
Is this laptop good for edting ?my primarly use would be gaming but i want to be able to do vedio edting jand photoshob just fine
Does anyone has any benchmark about the AMD Ryzen version of the victus?
i have the same Victus 16, running on RTX4070 with 144Hz.. i guess models may varies in different country.. cost 1.4k Euro
Does changing the backlit color works?
Thanks
As a laptop reviewer would you consider the HP Victus 16-r0073cl 16.1" Gaming Laptop Computer (Refurbished) - Mica Silver Intel Core i7 13th Gen 13700HX 1.5GHz Processor; NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 8GB GDDR6; 32GB DDR5-4800 RAM; 1TB Solid State Drive for $649.99 to be a good purchase. I am going to get a one-year warranty, adding another $80. What are your thoughts, or should I keep looking? The single SSD slot is the only major letdown so far. Thanks.
Can you test msi stealth 17 studio
Good honest review and yep, too much for too little.
Thanks Bryan!
Hp victus 16 rtx 4050 ryzen 5 8645hs vs lenovo LOQ rtx4050 ryzen 5 7535hs . Which is the best?
800 euros for an RTX 4070 on Amazon Germany. That includes the VAT too. Nice deal.
I have got the victus with 13700h 4060 8gb and 144hz ips dsplay but sadly no additional SSD or nvme slot very disappointed.
Hi. Is there no Micro SD port in this model?
I bought HP Victus Gaming 16 R0074TX - Raptor Lake - 13th Gen Core i7 13700HX (16 Core) Processor 16GB 512GB SSD 8-GB NVIDIA GeForce RTX4060 GDDR6 GC 16.1" FHD 1080p IPS 165Hz Micro-Edge Display B&O 1-Zone RGB BKB TPM W11 (Mica Silver, HP Direct Local Warranty) for just 1420 dollars like it is literally so much upgraded and still in a good price
need help picking a laptop out. I’m an architecture major in college (i’m a sophomore) and I need a laptop powerful enough to do renders and use revit and autocad. anyone have any suggestions? I saw this laptop for $1000 at costco but the sale ends next week. I built my pc 5 years ago and after that I stopped looking into pc parts and stuff like that so i’m not sure if this is good or not? (I personally have not had good experiences with laptops)
Looks like my previous laptop, HP Pavilion.
Might as well buy an ENVY laptop.
can you charge it via USB-C?
Gonna buy a victus 16 rtx 4070 Ryzen 7 7840hs 144hz for €1350 this week
Do you have it ? Could give a feedback, would liké to buy thé same
How good is Lenovo loq laptop????
It is a year later, but the Costco version is $899 today.
What about victus 7840hs and 4060 ?
His 4060 hx version is better than the rog Strix G16 4060 or not
Is hp omen good i wanna buy it for 1150 euro
My HP Victus was 884€, Ryzen 7 7840HS, Rtx4050, 16gb ram and display is 144hz. Why are so many different configurations and price ranges on the same laptop model? 😂
You don't need to go over 90W for a 128-bit card, in fact, 75w is enough.
60W is the maximum you need for a 64-bit card.
That is such a weirdly priced laptop you got there. The HP Victus I see where I live is selling a similar priced laptop but with a 144hz (1080p) and RTX 4060. Strange.
Here it has 32gbs of ram, rtx 4070, 2560 x 1440 240hz display for CHEAPER. Shits crazy.
yea same i got mine like 3 years ago for 1250$ 144hz 1tb ssd rtx 3060 and i71180h, build quality is alright and i can lift the lid up with one finger unlike him for some reason, only issue i had was that the fan made a weird noise when i moved the computer around while it was running, but somehow it fixed it self like after a week
Do you advise me to buy it? I am a student at the university studying the field of multimedia. Does it suit me? I mean, do you recommend it to me?
please reply ! Because I want this thing, it is necessary, thank you!! For helping me, and if anyone has experience with these things, please advise me. Thank you again!
u could have gone through a much better verson with Dell or ASUS
Costco currently has it for $999
My model has a Ryzen 7 7840HS, RTX 3050 6GB, 512GB Gen 4 NVMe, 16GB DDR5 @ 5600 MHz, and a 144Hz 250Nits IPS Display, and only got it for $850.
It’s a very solid and fast machine and the best thing I purchased.
HP victus 16 Ryzen 7 s0094ax is good for buying
Victus 16 i7 13700 gtx 4060 16go 1to for 1050 euros
Is it a good deal ?
I would say it is if you live in europe i live too and lowest i can find it in my country is 1500€ so yeah go for it
tbh HP have decent laptops and theyre often goes on sale.. this one is really overpriced you can get HP Omen's 16" with 3060 3070 for that price or lower
WHY are there speakers on the bottom of laptops?! I was JUST about to buy this thing and I hear him say shit speakers on the bottom. Ugh.
BTW it's not 60hz, at least not anymore, they offer it with a 144hz. And it's $1150 on Amazon with all other specs the same. So was totally going to do it but I have a laptop with 2 speakers directly above the keyboard and I don't know why you'd put speakers anywhere else. They might as well tell customers "sound will vary drastically depending on surface / may sound muddy because we just didn't want to work that hard to put speakers where they should be".
chinese and Indonesia ver. has 2 slot nvme
I got this laptop for 1449€ in my country and it has a 4070, 144 hz screen, Ryzen 7 7840HS, 32GB RAM, 512GB SSD. I will only replace that SSD with a better one.
3:54 what anime
😒👍 thank you for opening it, its a no go because it only has 1 m.2 slot
How is the battery Life ?
3 hours at most. Like most gaming laptops you should use it plugged in
For anyone who wants to know it's on sale on Costco. It's $999 w the specs it offers it's absolutely worth it. I returned my lenovo legion slim 14.5 with similar spec for this one.
How’s your laptop doing so far? I’m eyeing on this with Ryzen 5 8645hs+rtx4050+16gb d5 ram for USD660ish
Bought legion 5 pro 6800/3070 for these money, wouldn't exchange it for this victus
60hz ...wow . mindblown
Very nice,but when review HP OMEN 16
I already reviewed it
It is $1000 at Costco now
Wise man once says, "It is what it is"
This laptop is 1100$ at Costco rn
This is on sale rn at Costco with a i7, 4070, 16 GB RAM, 1TB SSD and 144Hz display for 1200$. Fipn steal if you ask me
is it worth it if I bought this laptop with specs ryzen 5 7640hs rtx 4060 16gb with price $917?
In my city, it is sold for $850 !
I got a Victus 16 with Ryzen 7 7840HS
Rtx 4060 8gb
16gb gddr5
1tb ssd
144Hz display
83whr battery
for $1000
Where you guys buying your bad deals?
The HDMI port looks horrifically misaligned, and the RJ45 and USB port are hairy!
This laptop seem popular in my country right now. But I will never trust that kind of plastic build, especially the screen hinge. Lenovo taught me a terrible lesson with the hinge designed just like this one.
well do you recommend a specific laptop that you liked?
I just don’t see a valid reason to pay for this. Even though is not extremely expensive it doesn’t look like a good option to buy.
i have one with a 4070
How tf u got 9 hours of battery on it, mine has a 4-cell 70mah and gives me 4 hours with eco mode on a good day
60hz
big red flag, 60hz in 2023 and a 4050 priced 1500$!? this is not it HP
Can't upgrade SSD? 👈
I got this laptop for 999 at Costco 💀 and it has a 4060 rtfs 144 hertz screen 13th gen i7 and 32 gigs of ram
Costco has the 4070 now for 999
Just dropped in price to 1,100. I bought this a couple days ago and they gave me a refund for the difference!
It's $800 refurbished at a microcenter near me
This should cost 550$-650$ at most. And even at such a price range I'd consider it a niche specific product, for people who either just need the power and don't care about the display (for office work perhaps), or people who will always be using a secondary monitor as their main display.
Show me a comparable laptop for that price!
@@Pencilneckgeek216people like this are people who always think theyre too smart but its not the reality
What???
$600? Office work? Really? L take.
HP are only OK for laser printer IMO
60 hz is a huge dealbreaker for me. I need to protect my eyes
Nice
60hz.... 1,500$
