15.6-inch 144 Hz gaming laptop

The HP Victus 15.6-inch FHD 144 Hz laptop pairs an Intel Core i5-13420H 8-core processor with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050 Laptop GPU (6 GB GDDR6). Sixteen gigabytes of DDR4 memory and a 512 GB PCIe Gen 4 NVMe M.2 SSD provide capacity for current titles and multitasking. Windows 11 Home ships pre-installed.

Sustained thermal behaviour

The 144 Hz IPS panel with 250 nits and 45% NTSC covers fast motion without ghosting. Eight cores — four performance and four efficient — scale up to 4.6 GHz under Turbo Boost while the RTX 4050 6 GB GDDR6 handles graphics workloads. The chassis manages heat during extended sessions without throttling the CPU or GPU clocks.

Installation and common issues

The single-piece chassis limits internal access; memory and storage upgrades require removing the bottom cover and disconnecting the battery. The 512 GB NVMe drive occupies the sole M.2 slot, so expansion means drive replacement. Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.3 drivers occasionally need a manual update after the first Windows 11 feature upgrade.

Questions about this item

How loud does the RTX 4050 fan get when the i5-13420H runs at 4.6 GHz all day?
