HOW is This Walmart Gaming Laptop only $499??

[@georgeogden1277]

It's now $667. The "Toasty Bros Effect" strikes again. 😂

You sure about that? Says $499 when I click the link in the description. Of course, it is out of stock for shipping, and not available at any stores within reach.

[@kindzadza134]

I was in USA last week for the first time and got the Victus 15 variant with Ryzen 5 7000 series and RX6550M for 429USD from Best Buy just few days before this banger dropped. Kinda disapointed I didn't wait for few days, but time was tight and I didn't know there will be such deals at all. On the upside every gaming laptop (even the shittiest possible MSI RTX2050 models) in my country costs AT LEAST like 650 USD even on "holiday deals", so I still got a decent deal after all.

[@TheQuixotic1]

REQUEST: When you do videos like this, please crack it open to see if the RAM is soldered and if there are any additional NVME slots for expansion. Things like that are definitely handy bits of information to have for how future-proof some of these laptops might be. 👍

[@KeRmiTaKilla]

Lol u can make that video. 😂

[@RedNineTeen]

I have this laptop and I can definitely tell you that they ram isn’t soldered so you can upgrade to a 32gb if need be.. and extra slots for expansion from what I can tell when opened mine there weren’t any.. just one nvme slot

We typically do when it needs to be upgraded, this laptop didn’t need it but noted!

@@KeRmiTaKilla I have a Lenovo Legion Pro 5 with a 4070 as my laptop, no need for another one. But if they already bought the PC to review, it would definitely be a very beneficial extra 2 minutes of content they could add to their review that would be beneficial for a lot of people to see what the potential upgrade path is for the machine.

This is/was the king laptop black friday deal. Congratulations if you got one.

[@SciFiDude79]

I'm not surprised they were in stock so long at that price. I work at a Walmart and we get in hundreds of laptops for Black Friday sales. And that's just one store. Multiply that by all of the US stores, plus some of our online merchandise ships from warehouses. Most of our Black Friday tech deals aren't even regular stock, they're sent in specifically for those sales. So, companies like HP make these devices specifically for those sales. And they make a LOT of them.

[@elserpiente98601]

What is the max RAM and SSD max specifications?

[@godisevil-b5d]

I returned it because of the small screen after purchase on pre-black friday sale. $499 is both the pre and black friday price which should also be available in-store on actual black friday Nov 29. After coming from a 17 inch gaming laptop and without a huge bottom bezel, the experience was like looking at a tablet. If this horrible trend of the huge bottom bezel were not stealing the full screen experience, I would have probably kept it.

[@davidrains6751]

can you go into the bios and try to up the wattage the components can use ? do hp victus have usable bioses

[@jurpo6]

no. victus has zero bios, all you can change is date and time. you have to have the omen gaming hub in order to unlock the full potential, this is intentional. i scored 2k more timespy with the hub on performance.

[@thewhyzer]

If it's a 200W laptop with a 13th gen Intel CPU, does that mean it might need to be flashed with the Intel CPU fix?

[@matthewmckinney6164]

No, laptop intel cpu's were unaffected

[@thewhyzer]

@@matthewmckinney6164 I thought that was only because Intel CPUs under 60W or something weren't affected, so if a laptop had a CPU that drew more than that, it might be affected. Then again, the CPU in this laptop might still be under 60W and the rest be for the GPU.

​@keromamdouh3681 it maxes out at 110w for 4050, 60 & 70. Plus 4000 series has dlss. So 4050 even underpowered, beats the 3050

their production line probably made too much for this variant when the trend and demand has changed that more ppl wanted laptop with different lcd spec like 100% srgb or maybe because the price-to-performance back then was not good with the performance of chopped down 4050 6gb. . regardless, this laptop become the cheapest 4050 gaming laptop in my country. usually its price would be like usd$1000
