Depending on your performance/battery settings, you have to charge it pretty often, but it’s perfect for gaming (heavy-duty like COD, Warframe, Fortnite, etc.) and even SolidWorks if you’re using it for CAD classes or such while in college or after 👍🏻. You don’t really have to get a monitor if you don’t want to.
I am very pleased with the computer so far. I am not a big gamer but I do need something a bit more powerful to play the ones that I have. This computer works perfectly.
I got two of these for my kids and they use them to play all of their favorite games including Roblox, Farming simulator, Minecraft and so many more. We have not had any issues with them. very reliable.
I originally bought an HP Victus just for use while traveling since I was quite happy with my HP desktop for home use. I was so pleased with the specs of the Victus that I bought another one for use at work. It's easily the best laptop I've ever had, and at a very decent price, too!
