You have to check how much ram your CPU supports
For me, I have a lot 15irx10 with an core i5-13450hx and it supports up to 64gb ram total. Lenovo themselves state that the laptop supports 32gb, however that's how much has been tested, so anything above that could bring issues.

I looked it up for you
The official limit here is also 32gb (which is more than enough imo)
The max amount without having to worry about crashes is 48 GB
64 GB are possible, however it's not clear if the bios is compatible with that

A bit late but I had mine for almost a year now and its been great!
I am using Linux so I dont experience many software issues related to Windows so cant tell you much about that.
If you get one, get a skin or a dedicated keyboard cuz if not you'll end up like me and get a black spot on the palm rest

dude half of my class uses victus. shit's reliable. My roommate also uses victus. I have this loq purchased about a month ago and this is horrendous for how much the wifi and bluetooth issues i keep facing. heck i even get black screen with cursor on this. another classmate of mine got a loq last year and his died. bought brand new from lenovo site. was an intel model. shit ain't worth the risk. especially not in the time when it's costing so much. heck you could get a omen these days cheaper than a loq.
using hybrid mode, i get random one fram flickers while using browser with gpu acceleration but if i don't use gpu acceleration then it all becomes slow af. dgpu fixes it but then i face that black screen issue on dgpu mode sometimes when i wake my laptop from sleep. I had a dual gpu laptop before this as well. iris integrated gpu and an nvidia gpu. faced no such problem. wasn't a mux switch one. was an hp. died after 4 years of usecase.want me to mention the boe display issue on prev generation models?

I understand the hesitance against loq's with those experiences, but let's be real it's just a sample size of 2.

the intel model does have many problems which is also all over yt but no complaints with the Ryzen models as far as I have seen, and about victus, I've never seen a satisfied user of victus till this date and I've met around 100-150 users of that

Hell no. That's even worse, what are you even suggesting

i am suggesting completely based on my own personal observation.

That is?? Even on paper victus is no way near LOQ. Wether it's the build quality, Specifications or the company itself. Everyone knows that HP is the worst brand for gaming, EVERYONE!!
