Recently HP has announced Victus Laptops and they look very appealing to me.
I have pre-booked one Victus by HP with Ryzen 5 5600H and RTX 3050.

But now I am confused and curious to know that if my decision was good as Victus has also a laptop with all the same specifications except the graphic card at a price difference of around ₹6000.

Full names with other specifications on Amazon.in

  1. Now which one is more worth? Is the upgrade of 1650 to 3050 for around ₹6000 worth? What are your opinions?

  2. Is there any other laptop that can compete with these laptops or is more worth than to these laptops?

Both DON’t have backlit keyboard, Modern Laptops have begun to adapt backlit KBs,
IMHO, i will buy the Lappy with HDD only and check if they have provisions for NVMe, and i will buy NVMe from the market for a better price, which will cut the hefty pricing of the LAPTOP. .. and look for 120Hz to 144Hz refresh rate.

try ROG STRIX,

and others

I would suggest you to keep your pre order for 3050 model because its well worth the extra 6k due to DLSS and more powerful than 1650.

How do you know they don’t have back-lit keyboard?

yeah , i hv just gone through the specs , it has backlit keyboard, but their product marketing team does not have a good specialist it seems, coz, they have not posted any Photos as such with backlit on, so its possible for the buyers to get away from such products with a bad demonstration.

moreover u r suggesting a LAPTOP without high refresh rates, whats the point of having a 30XX series GPUs , if u dont have atleast 120Hz refresh rates.

So which laptop do you recommend? Under ₹72000? For casual gaming, student work ,and a little video editing and 3D work.

bro, i did not know your budget, VICTUS specs are good go for it. but double check their specs

Ok. But still is there any laptop you would like to recommend over Victus Ryzen 5 5600H under 72000?

3050 has been shown to be equivalent or worse than a 1660 ti in many videos. Can consider getting a 1660 ti laptop as well.
