Hell yeah, I mean computers should be free by now. As a matter of fact, why don't they pay us $200 or $300 to take this ANCIENT GARBAGE off their hands? It's obviously so underpowered and outdated and can't even display a gif of a flying toaster without catching on fire.
Disregard these people. This is a good laptop for the price. If you don't think it's priced fairly, then wait for Trump to reduce the tariffs he made us pay in the first place before buying more electronics.

This Victus looks like a strong budget gaming laptop for 1080p play, with the Ryzen 7 and RTX 4050 handling titles smoothly and the keyboard backlit for everyday use. Reported performance includes 100 to 120 frames per second in Black Ops 7 with DLSS balanced, and the build has held up well over years of use. The main knocks are the mediocre CPU label, Wi Fi stuttering on some setups, and its heavy chassis. It feels like a solid value if you can live with the tradeoffs.

Common Questions (5)

  • It can have packet burst and stuttering on Wi‑Fi, while Ethernet works normally. Disabling the 2.4GHz band and adjusting the network adapter power settings reduced the problem, and a USB Wi‑Fi adapter is another reported workaround.

  • It is viewed as strong value for moderate gaming at this price, especially compared with a Walmart TUF listed at $599 for similar specs. The RTX 4050, 16GB RAM, and 512GB SSD make it a practical budget gaming pick.

    BraveEducation582thresholdBraveEducation582

  • Yes. It can handle 1080p gaming well, with one report of Black Ops 7 multiplayer running around 100-120 fps using DLSS Balanced. The CPU sits around 80C and the GPU around 70C during play, which is a useful thermal reference for this chassis.

    djyauco

  • The build is reported as very solid, with zero issues after about 3 years of use on an earlier version. The main downside is weight, so it is sturdy but heavy.

    riverhorse

  • Yes. An earlier 8-series version was improved by adding another RAM stick for about 30% more performance, and the 512GB SSD can fill up quickly with games, so storage expansion may be useful.

I bought this a little over a week ago. Not bad for gaming at 1080p at all. The cpu hovers around 80C and gpu 70C playing black ops 7 multiplayer 100-120 fps with right graphic settings and dlss balanced. However i was getting crazy packet burst and stuttering playing on wifi, ethernet no problem. I ended up disabling 2.4gz band and messing with the power setting for network adapter and have reduced the packet burst significantly on wifi. It was borderline unplayable on wifi

I have another version of this laptop we got earlier this year from Microcenter. It's been great so far.

The deal cycle on old equipment is moving slower than usual. This stuff should be like $200 or $300 by now.

Disregard these people. This is a good laptop for the price. If you don't think it's priced fairly, then wait for Trump to reduce the tariffs he made us pay in the first place before buying more electronics.

You're correct, they should pay us for collecting all the user data and selling to their partners Big Grin

Just picked up at my local bestbuy. Pretty solid laptop, i picked this over the ASUS tuff from walmart because bestbuy via paypal offered 4 pay plan and the 20% point rebate made this a deal. Walmart dont allow the 4 pay.

Honestly, this thing has pretty solid stats and backlight on the keys. I got a similar TUF for the same price point and I'm happy. I'm not a hardcore gamer but NMS is beautiful....
