I have a hp omen 15 from 2014. It still is a quick machine. The only thing that has gone wrong is the battery. Considering 8 years, that’s fair. This laptop is very similar and I expect it to be a great laptop as a desktop replacement and light gaming laptop.
i have HP Notebook 15 2015 model. 5th gen i3 processor. still work very well and handles daily tasks with ease. i changes the battery 2 times and added an extra 4gb ram.
I have all my Pc games I always wanted and this little guy has so much power that it runs all my games at a solid 144hz and I use it through my MSI monitor
Hey, great review! I got this same laptop but with 16GB RAM, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti, AMD Ryzen 7 5800H, 144Hz; and it was for only $700.00 (plus $45.00 shipping) and it runs so well. My only issue with it it's the same here in this video, batteries life run out quickly. But overall, pretty good laptop so far!
@@glutenfreecookiestastelikenoth yea this laptop is really good and worth this, but battery in gaming laptops Is quite weaker or dures less screen time that simple laptop
Got mine today it’s teally fast for games playing on ultra settings. The best buy guy tried to upsale me on something else but nah 300$ off to get a gaming laptop at 510$ out the door im taking that
As a designer, we don’t run laptops on just battery power. We don’t sit in Starbucks designing… laptops have to be plugged in, so your gripes with the battery draining while using adobe suite or solideorks etc are irrelevant
Why plug in a laptop and go through the extra trouble of more cords when you can just have a desktop though and make the battery irrelevant if you're just staying stationary? The only real reason to get this laptop is if you plan on plugging it into an external monitor and using a plug at home, but that's basically a desktop so doesn't make much sense.
Thinking about picking this up for college, gonna be using mostly Adobe photoshop, blender, autodesk maya, and some light gaming here and there, so far looks like a great investment
I'm glad I got this daring Laborday sale for 550$ USD. I'm just useing it for D&D stuff so I think what I got is ideal. But I did manage to upgrade the Ram and the SSD.
@@mollies13 I doubt that. I don't think it will. It can definitely handle far more stress. It has an i5 12450H processor and 8 gigs of RAM out of the box. It can definitely take like more than 20-25 open tabs on an average. Won't get hot with any of that.
@@drummer7557they are not that loud but luckily there is an awesome feature where you can open the omen app and set the fans on eco mode and it will be as quiet as a mouse
Honestly, this is what we need. A true review, I'm really impressed of your job bringing us a lot of useful information about this model. You're cool 🤠🔥
"Performance was smoother on an external display" - that's a very interesting point, and it's not related to the load on the power supply as you suggested. This is what the MUX switch is for, and I wonder if Victus 15 has it or not. The thing is that the internal display is routed through the integrated GPU, even when it's the discrete GPU that's rendering the image. This is a bottleneck that the MUX switch eliminates by directly connecting the screen to the Nvidia GPU. The HDMI port is also directly powered by the discrete GPU.
I commented 7 days ago but purchased this machine before watching this video and now that i got it i wanted to give my 2 cents and after listen to yours is yes the battery life is so bad lol Im coming off a M1 macbook air for this computer I get 4 hours just browsing without the charger but then it takes 1 hour to charges back to 100% but you always need a charger handy lol but you can play mw2 on low settings but I didnt play more then 30 mintues - 1 hour to kill time it wasnt to hot the fan does come on, the screen looks amazing even with brightness all the way down even on MW2 and yea i agree with you with the backlight it looks sexy when your in a dark ass room. im gentle while typing so the screen dont wobble but i agree with most of what you said 100% but i would have gotten 32 gb and 1 tb for $800 on amazon i dont mind carrying a charger but there expensive $75 and yes the track pad is decent but get a $12 wireless mouse great review man
we can upgrade the ram to 64 gb but 16 or 32 gb would be sufficient. We can even upgrade the storage by adding M.2. This is one of the best eco laptops for gamers and work. No gaming laptop can work without battery and same goes for this too. 1650 is good for casual gamers but not for hardcore gamers.
This is a good laptop for casual games, older titles, and even some from the Xbox One/PS4 era. Anything beyond that, perhaps. But it will burn it up fast, or you'll throw it because of the fan noise lol
@@drummer7557 Would budget laptop would you suggest for a hardcore gamer? I like that this one has the 2.1 HDMI port! It would pair well with my LG-C1 55'
I just need this laptop to run terraria, Minecraft and roblox pretty smooth (at least 60fps), and be able to run autocad good enough for my classes. My current computer runs Minecraft at 15 frames per second.
AH. This is my first time buying a gaming laptop and I'm completely lost. Don't know what to choose between ASUS TUF 15 and this. My heart is leaning towards the Victus now, but I also really like the ASUS TUF and the fact that it has RGB 😆 but of course that backlit keyboard can't be the deciding factor. I just need something that can easily handle heavy games and open-world games, while also looking as crisp as possible. I've been using an old Macbook from 2011, so I'm used to that crystal clear display. So good display, as close to that Macbook, AND performance is what I'm looking for.
Probably a stupid question, I want a laptop able to handle programs used in Architecture school but also want to be able to play the sims 3 and 4 with all expansions on it, would this one be good enough? If not, any recommendations?
1650 is just fine. It's great actually. If it sucked they wouldn't still be pushing it in 2022. It's way better than just integrated video graphics. At $479 black friday price; it's a mid level gaming laptop at a better than entry level price. You can always spend more....but it's not needed. This a great laptop for a 14 y/o in 2022 at the very least. Only thing I wonder is if they cheaped out on the motherboard?
At the same price and specs, I'm getting a desktop computer with Zotac GTX 1660 Super, but I don't have a 144 Hz monitor only 60 Hz. Shall I go with the desktop or laptop?
@@lilbigbob40 Thanks mate and I also found that the colors of Victus 15 aren't that great. And your suggestion for the graphics card even made me more pivot toward a desktop.
New Victus 15.6 models have Ram upgradability only up to 16gb as per HP website. Do you think 16gb upper limit is ok for a laptop for everyday stuff and video editing for youtube?
I just bought one 2 months ago its definitely great budget laptop I like it much nice design but got heated while playing wow over 95c that's the only issue I have with it but I switch to eco mode which keep it at 60c while gaming but low performance, if you are a gamer with this laptop switch to eco at gap 60 fps . Great video mate
What external cooling fan could I use for the HP Victus 15 laptop? I noticed that there were only two openings for the pre-installed fans. The rest of the underside is a fake vent.
Good video as always. I am looking at the 2023 HP Victus for $900. You should review it! Or give me your opinion on it? I am looking at it strictly for the PC release of Undisputed Boxing.
Basic? Understatement. Laptop glows red and power brick goes into meltdown after 5 minutes of normal usage. The noise is enough to wake the dead, avoid.
It’s definitely great for medium settings gaming with the charger plugged in. Has a bit of ram issues with forza but just keep the settings lower. I talk about that in the review
Runs Val perfectly. I play apex on it on med-low settings. Cod really pushes it to the limit. It’d probably be best to get an extra stick of ram to have 16. It’s probably what I’m about to do.
Gaming laptops imo are best for those old 360/Xbox One games you really want to get HIGH framerates out of. Use a new console or Desktop PC for newer AAA titles. That's just me. A lot of fun "old" games, 2007 until around hmm 2014 or so are great. And don't put to much load on the system overall. ;o)
@@drummer7557 yeah.. i play black ops2 on my victus(just got it 2 weeks ago), and frame rate is amazing i really enjoy it , and as for high graphical game such as apex framerate on medium graphics are good. what i can say is that it is a good budget gaming laptop for light and medium gaming.
My son has one and the Screen is IPS, so good angles, poor color gamut overall. Then again PC's aren't known for bright colored (accuracy) gaming. Sadly.
Agreed I'd rather they make a CHROMEBOOK you could game on, and just put several tiny fans lol. It would be way more silent. That's why I don't game on laptops. Just my Desktop, PS5 and Series X. You don't realize how much you miss that silence until you do laptop gaming. Sadly ;o(
You can just get the Asus A15 laptop for just $899.99 on sale best buy, Yes I have one and wow for just doing normal casual youtubing with 10 tab opens thats it, The fan is Super silent and yet cool to the touch! Like my old Lenovo yoga 3 14 inch notebook I5, that laptop gets warmer even though im just doing youtubing watching and jeez the fan gets loud.
@@PlanetGamz I would think not since the graphics are originally coming from the graphics card which can't create 4k in the first place. If that were the case everybody would just have integrated graphics and 4k tvs right?
Could this handle recording and occasionally streaming games like Minecraft and Valorant? And having multiple applications open at once i.e. discord and obs
can probably record while playing those games with diminished settings on both the game and software, probably wont be the best but you can get away with it, but it probably will struggle with streaming, especially with other programs open
Hey I was wondering, is this laptop really good for Sims 4 gaming with lots of mods and stuff installed? (Im mostly asking Sims players to answer this.)
Look, what i have discovered from a lot of victus reviews If you want to play anything that is "demanding in battery" use it connected (if not you are seeing 1.5-2 hours in eco mode- i was playing wuthering waves for reference) If not, actuvate the eco options and the thing will laat around 5 hours
I know it sound random but I have this model and I tried any way possible in my field but I am stuck on either 40 hz or 60 hz and this laptop can handle 144hz idk what’s wrong can’t find that number anywhere in settings, ( even tried bios but can’t enable advanced mode )
Just curious how would warzone do with this laptop im trying to work my way onto a full pc build and letting go of my consoles i wanna start with a laptop just to learn the basics of movement and things like that thanks
It can probably do warzone, but be prepared to have your whole hard drive consumed. Also, make sure you play with lowered settings or else you will have frame drop and unplayable lag. Also make sure the computer is plugged in when gaming high end games (AAA)
its better you don't add ram from an old laptop. old laptop ram generally have low ram speed. make sure the ram mhz matches with the one preinstalled in the laptop
Sounds like a terrible idea. You'll have Windows crashing on you before anything worse than that occurs. Check for compatibility before you do so and if possible, just get a new stick instead.
Update* I added the ram from my old laptop and it’s been working fine (that older laptop had two sticks in it, the one I swapped to my new one was a stick I bought around two years ago to add to it’s already 8gbs)
Just puchased this. I'm more of a casual retro gamer and generally into lighter and older games, not that much into brand new AAA titles, so I find this more than acceptable.
This is why the HP Omen is a better laptop, it has ports for SD Cards, USB A and C, HDMI and 100% RGB Screen colour. Made for Gamers and content creators. Got the 17.3 Inch last year with the Intel I7 Processor and the NVIDIA 3070 RTX, which makes it a battle tank!
I have a hp victus I notice for a 2022 laptop it dnt have hdr support or it's not trun on and if it does have hdr support how do I trun it on because I play cyber punk with out hdr this laptop is very lacking and can you recommen a laptop witch meets the victus price and power
Seriously considering one of these lower end victus laptops. I can buy one at Argos, locally, for £560 but it only has a 256gb drive and i wonder if i could live with that? Otherwise it's the same laptop. I probably, realistically could live with it. I imagine i'd have maybe a couple of larger games (50-80gb) and some smaller ones which i often play which are often just between 2 to 6 gb. I don't really store much else and generally just have a few movies to watch so i think how big a hard drive do i really need? The laptop i have now was given to me ... a lenovo ideapad 3, 1.8 ghz Celeron, integrated intel UHD graphics (surprisingly good!) and a tiny teeny 128gb SSD and 4gb of ram. I love it but it just ain't powerful enough but i'm easily playing X2 -The Threat, Baldur's gate 2 enhanced edition, diablo 2, GTA San Andreas and of course 'Pharoah and Cleopatra' ... which has always played on practically anything. You mentioned 'Hearthstone' - I was trying to remember the name of that game and install it, so thanks 👍 I think Rimworld or Terraria might be stretching it a bit with just 4gb of ram. Could probably play Terraria on lower settings. Anyway so i'm trying to think realistically, what do i actually need from a gaming laptop for the games that i actually like to play and it's rare that i play AAA titles anyway and would something like a Victus with an i5 or ryzen 5 and 8gb ram actually be just right. I have £1000 to spend but really i'd quite like to buy an acoustic guitar also. Just trying to get the best bang for my buck and not buy a more powerful (and more expensive) laptop that i might not actually utilise fully. Great review by the way it really helped me think about this as a purchase.
@@beastatkhd6293 Yeah that''s not bad and that's a decent cpu. I ended up getting a Asus Vivobook for about £850. It haz a nice Ryzen 7 cpu, with integrated Vega 7 graphics, 16gb Ram. It's a bit more than i wanted to spend but i'm happy with it.
There is one that I’m looking at it has a i7 13700H 13th gen with a 3050 6gb gddr6 for 750 I think it’s an amazing price I’m going from an ryzen 7 2700x to hopefully that^

@@st3ve874 even outputting to my tv? I know the laptop screen only does 1080p but was wondering if im hooked to 4k oled tv
@@PlanetGamz I would think not since the graphics are originally coming from the graphics card which can't create 4k in the first place. If that were the case everybody would just have integrated graphics and 4k tvs right?
That is a super cool gaming laptop, but it is not ergonomic. Ergotauri is making new one-of-a-kind ergonomic gaming laptops.
would this be ok to use for streaming my ps5 to twitch using obs with capture card ?
Might have some trouble honestly, might have to run low settings and go from there
Could this handle recording and occasionally streaming games like Minecraft and Valorant? And having multiple applications open at once i.e. discord and obs
can probably record while playing those games with diminished settings on both the game and software, probably wont be the best but you can get away with it, but it probably will struggle with streaming, especially with other programs open
Hey I was wondering, is this laptop really good for Sims 4 gaming with lots of mods and stuff installed? (Im mostly asking Sims players to answer this.)
Look, what i have discovered from a lot of victus reviews
If you want to play anything that is "demanding in battery" use it connected (if not you are seeing 1.5-2 hours in eco mode- i was playing wuthering waves for reference)
If not, actuvate the eco options and the thing will laat around 5 hours
I just made mines 16gb ram now gaming is waaaay better
Very good review👍
Ty!
Well i got the Hp Victus 15.6 12th Gen 32gb rm Gtx 1650 for 300$ in the box! Was that a great investment? And can i play games like Fortnite?
For $300 this can do a lot
@@NoisyPixelNews thank you! i was hoping 300$ was good for this
Does the location of the on/off button bother you?
it did at first but you get over it lol
Is this laptop good for programming?
This pc is 479 right now. Is it worth buying it?
thats an awesome deal if you are on a budget, can do a lot with this for $500
@@NoisyPixelNews Plan to upgrade it to 1.5Tb ssd and 16gb ram
suggestions under 700 usd for rtx3050 or above with 1Tbssd and 16gb ram?
i dont think you can go wrong really, it was a decent laptop, just needs to be plugged in for that extra performance
I know it sound random but I have this model and I tried any way possible in my field but I am stuck on either 40 hz or 60 hz and this laptop can handle 144hz idk what’s wrong can’t find that number anywhere in settings, ( even tried bios but can’t enable advanced mode )
Have you tried using NVIDIA control panel?
@@NoisyPixelNews yes sir and it’s only showing 3D settings not display
Would this music be good for basic music production with little to no plug ins?
Can it support multiple monitors via the USB-c port?
Shouldn’t be an issue with the right adapter
I have a question, does this only take lan cable? Can I connect it to my wifi without cables?
It def has WiFi or lan
Just curious how would warzone do with this laptop im trying to work my way onto a full pc build and letting go of my consoles i wanna start with a laptop just to learn the basics of movement and things like that thanks
It can probably do warzone, but be prepared to have your whole hard drive consumed. Also, make sure you play with lowered settings or else you will have frame drop and unplayable lag. Also make sure the computer is plugged in when gaming high end games (AAA)
Can you connect it to a monitor?
Can I add ram to it with a spare stick I have from an old laptop?
Yes, you can add up to 64 gb ram. In command prod just type wmic memphysical get MaxCapacity. It will display max Ram capacity of your system.
its better you don't add ram from an old laptop. old laptop ram generally have low ram speed. make sure the ram mhz matches with the one preinstalled in the laptop
Sounds like a terrible idea. You'll have Windows crashing on you before anything worse than that occurs. Check for compatibility before you do so and if possible, just get a new stick instead.
Update* I added the ram from my old laptop and it’s been working fine (that older laptop had two sticks in it, the one I swapped to my new one was a stick I bought around two years ago to add to it’s already 8gbs)
Has to be DDR4, 3200 mhz at least. Won't really change framerates much though. Slightly.
Does it work if I download visual studios 2022 ? Or is it not compatible?
Don’t see why it wouldn’t work but I’ve never used it
yes and easily due to intel core i5 12450h
Just puchased this. I'm more of a casual retro gamer and generally into lighter and older games, not that much into brand new AAA titles, so I find this more than acceptable.
This is why the HP Omen is a better laptop, it has ports for SD Cards, USB A and C, HDMI and 100% RGB Screen colour. Made for Gamers and content creators. Got the 17.3 Inch last year with the Intel I7 Processor and the NVIDIA 3070 RTX, which makes it a battle tank!
I always leave my laptop plugged so the battery doesnt rlly matter
Can it run Minecraft on medium or high settings? Or just the lowest?
Easily run it on any settings
My Victus has 52.5 battery. How will this battery serve me ? If I change the battery from 52.5 to 70 , will it be better.
I don't think ull will be able to upgrade to a bigger battery capacity
The temperature for CPU is 90 C, Is it common in most gaming laptop?
90 celsius is a bit hot for gaming. Should be like 70-80. The laptop could be running hot on you.
at 5:15 did he say rg 45 network port or is it a rj 45 network port
i probably meant J lol
Is here someone who played Dota 2 on this laptop? Pls Share your experience with me 🙏🏻 how many was fps? And if it drops during heavy team fights?
I have a hp victus I notice for a 2022 laptop it dnt have hdr support or it's not trun on and if it does have hdr support how do I trun it on because I play cyber punk with out hdr this laptop is very lacking and can you recommen a laptop witch meets the victus price and power
it does have hdr but if you want to change color space, you would have to go into windows settings
@@NoisyPixelNews that's kinda werd that it dnt just have a option to trun on hdr I even noticed samething with more powerful hp omen
Got it on sale for $479 today at Best Buy
everyone seems to be getting one, great deal
I got one too! One of my best purchases ever!
I see that’s a newer model i have and how about screen wobble?
Specifications!?
How would this work for a regular laptop with no gaming. Just word processing. surfing the web and email most of the time.
great deal for that, 144hz screen is just nice at $479 right now
The way you lift the screen makes me anxious. Haha
it was supposed to lol
So this laptop canot be charged via USB C port????
No
@@NoisyPixelNews Do you know if the same is true for the hp victus 16 d0023dx?
Extra cooling pad is needed?
Won't make much difference honestly, just a few degrees. Gaming Laptops just don't have good cooling, no matter what type of thermals they use.
What about screen wobble?
#wobblyscreen
Just a quick tip, remove the omen software, for some reason it's not optimized with victus 💀💀💀💀
is it still same for now?
Does it lag for anyone else while scrolling?
Seriously considering one of these lower end victus laptops. I can buy one at Argos, locally, for £560 but it only has a 256gb drive and i wonder if i could live with that? Otherwise it's the same laptop. I probably, realistically could live with it. I imagine i'd have maybe a couple of larger games (50-80gb) and some smaller ones which i often play which are often just between 2 to 6 gb. I don't really store much else and generally just have a few movies to watch so i think how big a hard drive do i really need?
The laptop i have now was given to me ... a lenovo ideapad 3, 1.8 ghz Celeron, integrated intel UHD graphics (surprisingly good!) and a tiny teeny 128gb SSD and 4gb of ram. I love it but it just ain't powerful enough but i'm easily playing X2 -The Threat, Baldur's gate 2 enhanced edition, diablo 2, GTA San Andreas and of course 'Pharoah and Cleopatra' ... which has always played on practically anything. You mentioned 'Hearthstone' - I was trying to remember the name of that game and install it, so thanks 👍 I think Rimworld or Terraria might be stretching it a bit with just 4gb of ram. Could probably play Terraria on lower settings.
Anyway so i'm trying to think realistically, what do i actually need from a gaming laptop for the games that i actually like to play and it's rare that i play AAA titles anyway and would something like a Victus with an i5 or ryzen 5 and 8gb ram actually be just right. I have £1000 to spend but really i'd quite like to buy an acoustic guitar also. Just trying to get the best bang for my buck and not buy a more powerful (and more expensive) laptop that i might not actually utilise fully.
Great review by the way it really helped me think about this as a purchase.
I got one for £699 with 16gb ram and a 12450 cpu. Not a bad deal
@@beastatkhd6293 Yeah that''s not bad and that's a decent cpu.
I ended up getting a Asus Vivobook for about £850. It haz a nice Ryzen 7 cpu, with integrated Vega 7 graphics, 16gb Ram. It's a bit more than i wanted to spend but i'm happy with it.

@Noisy Pixel Hi Bro
Please assist how can I get my pc to run fifa23 smoothly. Hp victus 15 Ryzen 5 AMD RX 6500M. If possible can I give access to my pc remotely.
Just downgrade settings and plug the computer In to the charger, see if you have better frames and less lag
Noisy Pixel downgrade in game settings to medium or something, not high or ultra
I tried most things including your suggestion. I tried changing AMD Radeon software settings the gameplay still lags. Maybe there's something I'm not doing right.
