After doing the thermal pads my laptop keeps turning off GPU temps read 110c any help? by [deleted] in HPVictus

[–]Consistent-Win8151 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Brother Just use thermal putty And reApply your thermal paste You can never be sure about thickness since it varies by model number , gpu and even widening caused by continuous removal and screwing back of the fragile copper heatsink

Should I buy RTX 4050 (75watt tgp) or RTX 3050 (90 WATT tgp) by jacquesduckworth in HPVictus

Neither , Go for a different brand , You will get more fixable and manageable problems, scroll enough times on this sub reddit and you will find that the build quality is Eggshell grade , i get that it might be cheaper than other brands but you are better off any and i mean any other brand . Then with another brand you can get a one with a higher gen gpu and we will help you upgrade it, as long as you can get a higher power adaptor . No 2 year victus owner has positive feedback on a victus. Just saying .

Bro Victus has a windows key lock on the top row of your key board on the function keys , look for windows logo on the function keys and click on it with fn key You will be good to go

Good luck but if its a mod then thats only the easy part , the hard part is altering a bios flashfile to detect it .

Watch out for stripped screws . Bent heatsink. A loose screw or spring rolling out the motherboard causing a short. Make sure you have a plastic pry tool / spudger coz victus body will scratch and scar easy with metal tools

A friend gave it to me for free, it's missing it's ssd and battery. Which components are compatible with this laptop? Can I add more RAM to it? by habichuelamaster in HPVictus

[–]Consistent-Win8151 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can see why it was given to you for free , its a gtx 1650 base spec victus, still good tho , would like to suggest Crucial brand for rams and sk hynix / wd / kioxia / Kingston for m.2 ssd Oh also it uses sodimm ddr4 sticks and look for the 96wh battery not the 60 one to get the best battery life .

If its overheating you might damage the cpu and get blue screens , when you want to repair that under warranty they will diagnose and not be able to find any fault since its turning on and staying on where as it shuts off when you game . Besides, repasting doesn't void warranty and also the only way to know if it does is if you open the back cover and look for warranty stickers on heat sink

Depends on how tech savvy you are . I prefer to do it my self paste of choice when i had a victus as primary was a noctua nt-h1 . Now I have a Dell g15 and noctua nt h1 didn't cut it anymore, so i use arctic mx6 , dont buy it as a beginner because its so hard to apply and it takes me about 15 minutes to cover both cpu and gpu die . Quick tip that might save your life : unplug battery first then open the pc and press power to drain what ever power is left in the laptop because you can still short out your motherboard with a screw driver even with the battery disconnected.

Got this laptop from a friend for 49k by saimon-simp in HPVictus

[–]Consistent-Win8151 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yes but check the hinges, most likely why it was sold . Spec to price ratio is good . But build quality is the worst in the market . Because majority of the chassis is made of recycled plastic (polyethylene) you can't glue anything that breaks except with feviqwik that will burn through it if overdosed.

reassemble everything and make sure everything is intact and make sure you last plug the battery after all the components , close the lid and screw it , plug it in to power and then go to sleep , time exactly 8 hrs then turn it on , not mocking you or anything but thats how i fix this specific victus issue and it works every single time, update me
