Mid-range gaming laptops have come a long way since the introduction of Nvidia’s RTX 4000 lineup of laptop GPUs. Almost reaching desktop levels of graphical performance, these GPUs have allowed gamers who prefer portability to enjoy all the latest video games at crisp resolutions and high frame rates. The HP Victus line of gaming laptops are some of the best bang for your buck machines out there, and the 16-s0097nr Victus is available at a great deal for a short time.
The Victus is a very capable laptop
The HP Victus comes with Windows 11 pre-installed and a 16.1” display at a resolution of 1920 x 1080. Powering it is the AMD Ryzen 7 7840HS processor with a max boost clock speed of up to a staggering 5.1 GHz. The processor also boasts 8 cores and 16 threads. For RAM you’ve got 16 GBs of DDR5 RAM with a clock speed of 5600 MHz.
You also get 1 TB of SSD storage – M.2 NVMe – and fast charging, with a claimed battery life of 13 hours and 30 minutes for video playback. For a webcam you’ve got a sharp 1080p camera, and the keyboard is backlit with 1-zone RGB. There’s also dual speakers by Bang & Olufsen, so you know you’re getting some great audio.
The RTX 4060 is perfect for 1080p gaming
The cherry on top of this wonderfully powerful package is the dedicated RTX 4060 GPU. This GPU, with its 8 GBs of GDDR6 VRAM, can tackle any game you throw at it. Even the newly released Alan Wake 2 runs at almost 60 frames per second on High settings at 1080p. Cyberpunk 2077’s newest DLC – Phantom Liberty – runs at 71 frames a second at 1080p with all graphical settings cranked to Ultra.
This HP Victus deal presumably isn’t going to last long. So if you want to save $350 and get this amazing gaming machine for only $1,049.99, we’d urge you to act quick.
