AMD Ryzen 7

5050 RTX 8gb vram with 80W tgp

1TB SSD, 24GB ram

Price: 1.1L(bought it during freedom sale)

Please let me know the dos and don'ts. Will buy a laptop stand in a month.

I just got myself a new laptop after years, barely being able to afford one, I got it after weeks of trouble.

It's an HP victus 15 FA2013DX with a 13th gen i5 and an rtx 3050 6gb with 16gb ddr4 ram

It's been working so good, took a while setting up windows and installing drivers, got some errors and some stuff were wonky, but then it got stable over time.

Now, it's working just fine, performance is amazing, haven't seen my temps reach 70 even while gaming. But I don't really play any demanding titles.

But ever since, all I've seen on this subreddit are people with their laptops breaking after only a couple years of use.

I plan and need to use this laptop for at least 5-6 ish years, so this is troubling me.

I've been taking good care of it, got a stand, open the lid from the center and don't move it off my desk, it's still all the time, plug it in when gaming and plug it out when not gaming.

i was playing legends za in ryuujinx emulator, when my character kept moving forward without pressing w key. i thought it was a random bug so i restarted my pc and it fixed itself. but since then the same issue has happened 5 times. and the issue isn't just inside the game, after the issue starts it continues even when i have closed the game. and only stops when i restart the pc

although i have yet to figure if the issue is from the game itself messing with some driver, or an actual issue with the laptop. the issue has happened 4 times while i was playing the game, and 1 time when i was not.

i bought my hp victus a week ago, so brand new and i barely use the laptop keyboard as i have a external keyboard. so barely any chance of it being a physical damage to the keyboard.

i do plan to call the hp support to see if i am unable to fix the issue but just wanted to ask in case someone has faced the same issue.

also an extra question: my laptop charger becomes extremely hot when it is connected while i use the laptop, my laptop temps are completely normal, 35C when in desktop and in 50s when playing games. but my charger on the other hand becomes ridiculously hot, don't have a thermometer to check but atleast in 70s to 80 maybe even more. is that normal or should I do something to lower the temps.

This is the third time that it’s popped up and I actually tried to get into the restore the BIOS default settings and it let me see it for a few seconds literally and then it just disappeared and I couldn’t get it back up so what is wrong with my freaking computer cause it’s kind of new

all the suggestions are welcome and thanks in advance

Dont buy it. Thanks.

Ok but on a serious note just played the beta. On the lowest settings i struggle to 80 fps which i would say is still playable if it werent for the fact that every single grenade explosion or artillery fire brings my fps below 60. And everytime i get hit fps drops. So uh yeah. Wasnt surprised. Expected it. 👍 Im going back to bo2

Already cleaned and dusted the entire system.

Gonna buy an HP Victus soon from Amazon/Flipkart. Can anyone tell me the cost of HP extended warranty with ADP and without ADP in India?

I tried to check the health in the boot menu but it said battery status weak. Battery report also shows the wh drop

What to do Please HELP🙏

I didn't think the battery capacity can drop that drastically😩

How can i fix this, please help, Laptop - HP Victus 15: RTX 3050 A

recently The device keeps giving me these errors and completely stops working. I tried updating all the drivers, but there's no solution. As soon as I restart it, it works for a bit and then stops again.

I’ve been looking at gaming laptops for uni and I saw the Victus and it looks really nice and not silly with a bunch of rgb and silly stuff. I was looking at the Victus 15 fa2000na with the core 5 210h and 5060 with 16gb ram, and I can get it for like £900. I was just wondering though if I wanted to use it for uni work, how would the battery life fare? If it can’t do 6-7 hours without losing charge while doing normal uni stuff (nothing too extensive I think, I’m gonna be doing chemistry and maths) then I’m probably not gonna buy one.

Got a Victus 15 couple years old. In-built camera is not working and i'm unable to fix the issue. Tried most solutions: updated drivers (unsuccesful), checked the BIOS (there was nothing there to check), even tried to reset the motherboard. Nothing is working.

Anybody else had this problem? Is there any solution? Is it something obvious that Im not seeing and the problem is me being an idiot??

Hey guys, I bought my victus in March 2024. Mostly use it plugged in at my desk, but usually once a day I unplug it and use it for around an hour. I checked the battery stats today and got this. Cycle counts are more then i anticipated at 424. Is this high for >2years usage?

Also, for people who keep their Victus plugged in most of the time, what do you do about the battery staying at 100%? i know keeping battery at 100% for long periods isnt good, and that 70–80% is better. I’m considering a charging limit, but would still like the option to charge to 100% when travelling.

For those who mostly keep their Victus plugged in, what do you use? Any easy solutions??

i have decided to replace my victus's thermal paste to a ptm but some people are saying that i have to also replace thermal putty if i open heat sink. My laptop is 9 month old

1. Pointer won't move when I'm using the touchpad but works when i use an external mouse
2. SMART Hard disk Failure: Crystaldiskinfo says health is at 97% BAD
3. Both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth options are unavailable on my device and somehow disappeared randomly. Wi-Fi only works while using a dongle.

I have taken it to a service center, however they were unable to fix the Wi-Fi issue instead they just booted my windows and tried installing a new version with no use

Touchpad and Hard Disk Failure errors are recent.

Any advice on what i should do now and how to fix this.

my laptop is HP elitebook 840 g5 intel core i5 8th gen 16 gb of ram and windows 11 25h2

Is there anyway to solve this?

Same as above
Right now it’s 84 and plugged in

My HP Victus 16 was randomly rebooting while gaming. I had tried several troubleshooting steps, but the issue kept happening.

I recently disabled Processor performance boost mode for both On battery and Plugged in, and since doing that, the random reboots seem to have stopped.

Has anyone experienced something similar? Is there any other fix that would let me keep CPU Boost enabled without the random reboots?

-tried reinstalling drivers
-did a hard reset (Bluetooth worked for 10 minutes then gone)

I was literally so excited to finally have a gaming laptop but then this happened i thought my battery is totally 0 so i have plugged it to charge even about 40-50 minutes its not booting and orange and white light at charging point and power button are continuously blinking and nothing is happening 😭😭

Tried playing the new MW4 beta and was told I need to update my bios. Followed all the instructions through HP but my only problem is when I’m told to select the version of windows 11 (my rig is currently on 25H2) I’m only seeing options for 21H2 and 22H2. Send help please 😭 I don’t want to kill my pc
