HP Victus 15-fa0004TX NVIDIA RTX 3050 Gaming Laptop 15.6" FHD 144Hz Intel Core i5-12450H - 16GB RAM - 1TB SSD - Win 11 Home - 1Y Warranty - AX WiFi 6 + BT5.3 - Webcam - USB-C (DP1.4) - HDMI 2.1

Pros:
-Slightly longer battery than other budget gaming laptops. My older brother used to own a MSI GF63, and my mate now has a ASUS TUF. Both of those could only go like 3-4 hours when brand new and not gaming. This Victus can go about 5 hours, not a whole lot but ok for a school day.
-Battery charges quickly at least compared to my mate's TUF. From about 15%, I can go to full charge in about an hour while his takes over an hour.
-Runs most of my games decently well. I most play War Thunder, Marvel Rivals, Fortnite, Minecraft and Lethal Company. MC and Lethal obvs runs no problems. WT and fortnite I can run at medium settings 60 but I no...view more Pros:

-Runs most of my games decently well. I most play War Thunder, Marvel Rivals, Fortnite, Minecraft and Lethal Company. MC and Lethal obvs runs no problems. WT and fortnite I can run at medium settings 60 but I normally run semi low to match the 144hz. marvel rivals is the only one I have some issues with but everyone agrees its the games problem. I run low to get like 50fps.
-Lots of storage compared to other laptops I looked at for the same price. 500GB is too little if you try to install 5 games nowadays, 1tb is safer.

Cons:
-I can't see the screen in class when the sun shines on it.
-The laptop feels very heavy and it squishes a lot if you hold/press it too tight. Sometimes when I'm playing games the keyboard squishes a lot too.
-The laptop gets hot and loud. My brother used a software to check and it doesn't seem like the CPU or GPU is overheating. But after an hour of gaming I can definitely hear the fans through my headset, and I can feel the heat through the keyboard.

Purchased for my daughter for school as she needs a graphics card etc. It is a bit heavier than others but I suppose it has a bit more tech in it. Purchased for my daughter for school as she needs a graphics card etc. It is a bit heavier than others but I suppose it has a bit more tech in it.
