I’ll get right to it: The 16.1-inch HP Victus gaming laptop is one of the best Cyber Monday gaming deals I’ve seen. It wasn’t available during Black Friday, and it’s only happening for the rest of the day. Normally $1,399.99, you can get this powerful, portable machine for $879.99 at Best Buy. This laptop possesses a trait that’s rare in gaming laptops under $1,200: It has a speedy RTX 4070 graphics chip inside, which has the power to run many PC games at medium-to-high graphical settings.
While the Victus is HP’s entry-level gaming laptop series, sitting beneath the more premium Omen, it’s tough to argue with its specs — especially at this price. It has an AMD Ryzen 7 8845HS processor, Nvidia’s RTX 4070 graphics, and 16 GB of fast DDR5 RAM. The weakest part of this configuration is its storage, which comes with 512 GB, but can be easily upgraded by opening the laptop’s bottom shell. As for the display, it runs at 1080p, and this hardware should run most games very well at that resolution. I quite like the Victus’ low-profile design, in part because it’s not too flashy like most other gaming laptops.
