A win for HP. The HP Victus 16 is one of the few budget laptops on the market that comes with an Intel Core i5-13500HX processor.The HP Victus 16-r0076TX offers an interesting mix of midrange hardware, including an Intel Core i5-13500HX Raptor Lake-HX processor and an Nvidia GeForce RTX 4050 (Ada Lovelace) graphics card. Connectivity: Could use more I/OFor a gaming laptop, the I/O on the HP Victus 16 is surprisingly light. On the right side, there’s a USB-C port, two USB-A ports (all three rated for 5 Gbps), and an HDMI 2.1 port on one end. There’s a barrel pin connector for the charger next to it. The USB and HDMI ports are a little too close for comfort, especially near the HDMI port.
Performance: Raptor Lake and Ada Lovelace shineThe HP Victus 16 is available in a few configurations. We used the base model, which comes with an Intel Core i5-13500HX and an Nvidia GeForce RTX 4050 laptop GPU. GeForce RTX 4060 and RTX 4070 are available if you want.
Those seeking a more powerful CPU can opt for the Core i7-13700HX version, which can only be paired with a GeForce RTX 4070. Users seeking additional memory can also choose a version with 32GB of RAM and 1TB of storage.
System Performance
While the HP Victus 16 performs well as a daily driver, it lags behind the competition in PCMark 10, scoring only 6,125 points.
Its CrossMark score of 1,701 puts it ahead of the Lenovo LOQ 15 and Acer Nitro 16.
The situation is much the same in AIDA64, where the Raptor Lake-HX processors consistently lag behind their AMD counterparts. GPU PerformanceAt first glance, the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4050 doesn’t look like the most powerful GPU on the market. It has 6 GB of GDDR6 VRAM on a 96-bit bus, 2,560 CUDA cores, and TGP values between 35 and 115 watts.
A little digging in the Nvidia Control Panel shows that its maximum TGP is capped at around 100 watts, which is respectable. Interestingly, the GeForce RTX 4050 here can “borrow” up to 20 watts of power from the CPU. Gaming PerformanceThe GeForce RTX 4050 excels at gaming, even with just 6 GB of VRAM. It can run every game we throw at it at 1080p 60 FPS with all settings turned up high.
The stellar performance of Cyberpunk 2077 can be explained by Nvidia’s extensive optimizations for the game. Esports titles like DOTA 2 run well on the laptop.
The architectural improvements brought by Ada Lovelace make the RTX 4050 a decent 1080p gaming machine. However, we don’t recommend enabling ray tracing without DLSS as it’s very VRAM-hungry. Emissions: A bit too loud and hot when runningSystem noise
The CPU and GPU each have a dedicated cooling fanWhile HP did everything it could to cool the Victus 16, it had a hard time keeping the hardware in check. The first thing you’ll notice is how noisy the laptop gets under the lightest load, which gets progressively louder when gaming.
Our testing determined the maximum noise output to be 55 dB(A). While it’s well below the threshold of what can be considered loud, it’s not something that will blend into the background without a pair of headphones. HP Victus 16 Laptop Battery Battery LifeThe HP Victus 16 comes with a respectable 83 Wh HP Victus 16 Laptop battery. A 99 Wh battery capacity would have been ideal, but those are reserved for the top SKU only.
In our Wi-Fi web surfing test with the brightness set to 150 nits, the HP Laptop Batterylasted about 8 hours and 51 minutes. With the brightness cranked to maximum, the battery life dropped to 8 hours and 10 minutes.
Interestingly, the laptop fared even worse in the Big Buck Bunny FHD H.264 test with the brightness set to 150 nits and all radios (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth) turned off. It lasted only 7 hours and 39 minutes. Ideally, that number would have been higher. With its powerful processor and 165 Hz screen, the HP Victus 16 is an ideal 1080p gaming machine for esports enthusiasts on a budget, but only if you can tolerate its noise and heat.
