HP Victus 16 review: Affordable gaming laptop with AMD CPU and Nvidia GPU

For penny pinchers. In the most affordable version of the Victus 16, HP combines a Ryzen 5 5600H with a GeForce RTX 3050 Ti, which promises plenty of performance for the 144-Hz FHD display. If it only wasn't for the mediocre image quality…
HP Victus 16

After we already tested a more expensive version of the Victus 16 with a Ryzen 7 5800H and GeForce RTX 3060 several months ago, we are now putting the affordable model of the Victus 16-0145ng to the test. Even though HP cuts costs by not including a Windows operating system (we installed Windows 11 Home), a Ryzen 5 5600H and a GeForce RTX 3050 Ti for around 920 Euros ($975) is still impressive. Similarly, including 16 GB of DDR4-RAM and a 512-GB NVMe SSD at that price also gives no reason for complaint. At least on paper, the IPS display also strikes a good figure, since 144 Hz indicate an adequate reproduction of fast games.

* ... smaller is better

Even though the competitors are not exemplary in this regard either, delivering similarly meager results, neither the brightness nor the color space coverage are adequate anymore in 2022. Only 62% of the sRGB color space and an average brightness of 239 cd/m² make for a very pale and dark image, particularly in bright surroundings.

The color accuracy turns out similarly disappointing. In the state of delivery, the panel struggles with a green tint, but at least you can alleviate this with a calibration (as usual, you can download our ICC file from the link to the right of the brightness distribution schematics above).

The subject of the response times gives us less reason for complaint. Considering the price, almost 19 ms black-to-white and 30 ms grey-to-grey are okay. The same goes for the viewing angle stability, which ranges at a typical level for IPS screens.

Display Response Times

Display response times show how fast the screen is able to change from one color to the next. Slow response times can lead to afterimages and can cause moving objects to appear blurry (ghosting). Gamers of fast-paced 3D titles should pay special attention to fast response times.
       Response Time Black to White
19.4 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined↗ 9.7 ms rise
↘ 9.7 ms fall
The screen shows good response rates in our tests, but may be too slow for competitive gamers.
In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.1 (minimum) to 240 (maximum) ms. » 37 % of all devices are better.
This means that the measured response time is similar to the average of all tested devices (21.5 ms).
       Response Time 50% Grey to 80% Grey
29.6 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined↗ 13.8 ms rise
↘ 15.8 ms fall
The screen shows relatively slow response rates in our tests and may be too slow for gamers.
In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.2 (minimum) to 636 (maximum) ms. » 33 % of all devices are better.
This means that the measured response time is better than the average of all tested devices (33.7 ms).

Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)

To dim the screen, some notebooks will simply cycle the backlight on and off in rapid succession - a method called Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) . This cycling frequency should ideally be undetectable to the human eye. If said frequency is too low, users with sensitive eyes may experience strain or headaches or even notice the flickering altogether.
Screen flickering / PWM not detected

In comparison: 53 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 17924 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 3846000) Hz was measured.

Performance

With the equipment of our test unit, the Victus 16 belongs to the gaming midrange. The components used are balanced and should attract price-conscious gamers.

Test Conditions

The Omen Gaming Hub, which should be preinstalled in models with Windows, offers three different performance profiles. With the exception of the battery tests, all the measurements were performed using the highest mode (see screenshot #3). The fan control was always adjusted to the automatic setting.

Processor

The Ryzen 5 5600H is a hexacore processor that is specified at 45 watts and able to operate on up to 12 threads simultaneously. Under load, the 7-nm model has a clock speed of 3.3 to 4.2 GHz.

In our Cinebench loop, the performance develops very evenly, similarly to the competitors. As you can see in the table, the Ryzen 5600H is significantly faster than Intel's Core i5-11300H, which only contains 4 cores, though (max. 8 threads). Thanks to using the Ryzen 7 5800H (8C/16T), the other competitors are slightly faster.

DPC Latencies

As it happens so often, there is some need for improvement in the latencies. According to the LatencyMon tool, the Victus 16 without any further adjustments is not ideally suited for real-time audio and video processing.

Storage Solution

Our test configuration collects some positive points with its storage solution. Even though the storage capacity of the Samsung PM981a with its 512 GB does not create any enthusiasm, the M.2 drive on NVMe basis fares very well in the benchmarks, leaving even the 1-TB drive of the more expensive Victus 16 model just barely behind.

Graphics Card

With the GeForce RTX 3050 Ti, Nvidia offers a successful midrange GPU, as long as you disregard the mediocre raytracing performance. The DirectX-12 model is able to use 2560 shaders and includes 4 GB of GDDR6-VRAM. Unfortunately, the latter isn't up to date anymore at this point. We currently expect at least 6 GB from midrange devices. Demanding games will therefore reach their limits in higher resolutions and settings.

Generally, the performance of Nvidia's Ampere chips depends very much on the configured TGP. At 75 watts (including Dynamic Boost), HD has chosen a fairly high value for the RTX 3050 Ti, which is also reflected in the above average scores in the synthetic graphics benchmarks and tests using real games. However, the Victus 16 still has a hard time against the competitors. Both the Asus Strix G17 G713QE and the Dell G5 5515 are able to achieve a small advantage in most cases. The GeForce RTX 3060 of the more expensive Victus 16 moves ahead by about 30% most of the time.

Gaming Performance

Less demanding or not extremely computing intensive games don't create any unsurmountable challenges for the GeForce RTX 3050 Ti, and high to maximum settings in the native resolution of 1920 x 1080 are no problem most of the time. Things only become tight in demanding games such as Forza Horizon 5, Dying Light 2, or God of War, where it is not always sufficient for smooth frame rates with all the controls set to the maximum.

During the constant load test with The Witcher 3 (1 hour @FHD/Ultra), we do not see any conspicuous behavior. The performance remains fairly stable during the whole time.

Emissions

Noise Emissions

The noise development leaves some mixed feelings. Although some other gaming laptops become even louder under load, 44 to 53 dB(A) in 3D operation aren't really good at all either. With these values, the Victus 16 comes close to its faster sibling. Surprisingly, we even measure a slightly higher noise level during idle operation. When the laptop isn't busy for a moment, the fans are either turned off or run already at a very audible noise level. A constant, discrete fan speed would have been preferable here.

Temperatures

As usual, the case warms up particularly in the back half. At two spots on the Victus 16, we measured more than 50 °C (122 °F) under load. However, this value is still within the typical range for gaming laptops. Inside the case, mainly the processor heats up. After an hour of the stress test with the Furmark and Prime95 tools, the Ryzen 5 5600H stays at a comfortable 85 °C (185 °F). The GeForce RTX 3050 Ti reaches a moderate 75 °C (167 °F).

Power Management

Power Consumption

The power consumption is unremarkable. Between 7 and 15 watts during idle operation and between 93 and 185 watts in 3D operation is relatively efficient for a gaming laptop and appropriate for the hardware used.

Battery Life

The battery capacity is the same as that of the more expensive Victus 16 model. 70 Wh in combination with the automatic graphics switching ensures a solid battery life. The 16-inch laptop lasts for a good 7 hours in our WLAN test with the brightness reduced to 150 cd/m².

Gamers who consider their budget and don't have high demands on the image quality might like the Victus 16-e0145ng that we tested here.

The Ryzen 5 5600H, the GeForce RTX 3050 Ti, and the NVMe SSD together form a balanced and fairly powerful package, which is suited for diverse application areas. Aside from the mediocre performance of the display (low color space coverage, meager brightness, etc.), the HP laptop does not show any larger weaknesses. The elegant case houses relatively good input devices and a decent number of ports, although you have to live without Thunderbolt. The battery life and sound are also appropriate for the price, even though they don't really inspire enthusiasm.

Overall, we liked the Victus 16-e0145ng a little better than the Lenovo Ideapad Gaming 3 15IHU. On the other hand, the comparably equipped Dell G15 5515 and Asus ROG Strix G17 G713QE competitors are slightly ahead in our evaluation.

Price and Availability

A similarly equipped version of the HP Victus 16, only with a Ryzen 7, is available from the HP store for about $950
