    I will say that the computer is Great for beginners especially the 8GB Ram with half a terabytes. Some game stutters a bit but with 16gb of ram and 1TB of storage will be a fun experience and no need to worry about your game lagging or Crashing. Ive been using it for weeks, is fast, smooth and perfect for my study, and video game. I would be playing fortnite at around 120fps on creative and 70 on battle royale, the fan doesnt make much noise, device will get bit hot. but after finishing gaming, in 3 or 5 minutes the computer will be cool quickly. Batterry is great, but if its for gaming without a charger it'll drain immediately. If its for web search or watching videos, it'll be a decent battery life. It does last long, somewhere to 4 or 3 hours.

    Awesome laptop for the price I got it at during Black Friday. Ordered another 8gb stick of ram, (Samsung which is the OEM to my surprise) and now it’s really screaming. Will run any Esport game at maxed out specs if that’s your thing, and most AAA games are playable at medium-high settings. Running Witcher 3 on high settings at 1080p gets me an average of 68fps. Outside of that, it’s just a fantastic laptop for general computing, and the full size keyboard is easy to pickup within just a day or two. Very happy with my purchase.

    For gamers who don’t want to spend a fortune on a gaming laptop, the HP Victus 15 is an excellent choice. The AMD Ryzen 5 7535HS and Radeon RX 6550M combination provides strong performance for 1080p gaming, making it perfect for casual gamers or those on a budget. The design is sleek and practical, the display is solid for everyday use, and the keyboard and trackpad are comfortable for both gaming and typin0g.

    I was able to pick this laptop up for $430 and as long as you can get it under $500 I think its a great value. The 6550M can handle most games decently well, the main compromise is the 4GB of VRAM but for casual gaming its fine. You wont be playing anything crazy on here with crazy settings but for casual gaming or even bigger games on lower to mid level seetings its great. My main areas of concern are the RAM, 8GB isn't nearly enough. I would HIGHLY recommend picking up at least another 8GB of RAM maybe even more depending on what you are using it for. 8GB of single channel RAM in 2024 is painful. My other main issue is the 512GB SSD, just like the RAM it isn't enough. Many laptops compromise on storage so this is to be expected but I would highly recommend expanding your storage. Overall for work and casual gaming this laptop can't be beat at a sub $500 price point. Just add some storage and a bit more RAM and this is a cheap yet solid machine.

    Victus 15.6" Gaming Laptop – Solid Performance for

    I purchased the Victus 15.6" Gaming Laptop as a Christmas gift for my 15-year-old son, upgrading from his older machine. He primarily uses it to play Minecraft and Helldivers II, and so far, the laptop has handled both exceptionally well. One of the biggest improvements he’s noticed is the lack of lag, which was a problem on his previous device. Even with only 8GB of RAM in a single slot, the performance has been smooth, and the laptop hasn’t struggled with his gaming workload. It does have an open DDR5 slot, providing an easy upgrade path if needed in the future. Overall, this has been a great purchase so far. It’s delivering solid performance right out of the box, and the upgrade potential adds even more value. If you’re looking for a budget-friendly gaming laptop that can handle moderately resource-intensive games well, especially at low resolution, this is a good option.

    This is my first gaming laptop like ever, and I will say even an open box it looks and works like brand new. I recommend it for people who are getting into gaming computers as their first. I do recommend upgrading it to 16GB RAM like I did; it’s much faster and much better. Games like BEAMNG Drive work great, no lag, no nothing. I recommend it 100/100. I will say the battery life when playing a game without power can deplete it fast so just expect the battery to be bad, not too bad where you can’t just browse, play it with the cord plugged in faster and better.

    I purchased this gaming laptop for my son and he loves it. The machine plays all of his games at +60 fps and has been averaging 100+ fps. The laptop runs cool for having an AMD processor. We added 16gb ram to bring the total ram to 24gb(8gb is pre installed). This I recommend.

    I bought it as a early Christmas gift for my daughter. The computer is great so far for gamer that are into Roblox and Minecraft. Also to play games from Xbox Game pass. I only speak of those games cause that is what my daughter plays. I can't talk for games with more graphics.
