What is this 'Unknown' in System Power Report?

What is this 'Unknown' in System Power Report?

Battery life of my HP Victus is utter garbage. It barely lasts 2 and a half hour when I have eco mode, power efficiency, energy saver all on. SO I decided to check System Power Report and found this 'Unknown' which has caused 20k mW energy loss. What is it?

PTM7950 40x80x0.2mm, after pasted

Think I have used more than the size of cpu and gpu, but since there was some last thermal paste I was on the plastic die?? Idk, as you can see my cpu and gpu are small squares, even tho have applied on that black die for safety idk!!

Have I done it right or should have just pasted on metalic die?

Temps -CPU- 102°C to 45° normal and below 78 while gaming fortnight,

GPU - 64 while gaming same before the paste

Is it normal for screen to flicker when plugging and unplugging?

I noticed my screen will flicker for a bit when I connect it to a charger and when I unplug the charger.

Doesn't happen any other time.

Got a New Victus Any Recommendations?

Let me preface I am not a really hardcore gamer since I primarily play indie games which I hope my Victus can handle future indie titles. But I do play some triple a games from time to time. But considering my specs:

Intel i5 13420H

Nvidia GeForce RTX 4050 6GB VRAM GDDR6

16GB DDR4

What game I can possible play on this any recommendations? Also should I avoid heavier games the likes of Red Dead Redemption etc, thanks in advance!

Hi everyone, I recently bought an HP Victus Gaming Laptop and wanted to know your honest opinion about it.

My main use will be heavy gaming, plus some coding and daily work

I’d like to know from current users:

How is the gaming performance on HP Victus?

Does it overheat during long gaming sessions?

Any FPS drops, lag, throttling, or fan noise issues?

How is the long-term durability and build quality?

Any common issues like heating, hinge problems, battery drain, or lag?

How is the build quality and durability after 1–2 years?

Did I make the right choice compared to Lenovo LOQ / Acer Nitro / ASUS TUF?

Did I make a good purchase for the price 82k

Bought an HP Victus with RTX 4050.. turns out it’s 50W TGP

So I recently bought an HP Victus (i5-13420H, RTX 4050 6GB, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD). I didn’t realize at the time that this particular model is capped at 50W TGP, and the product images/description were… let’s just say not very clear. I only figured it out after setting everything up and noticing performance wasn’t where I expected compared to other 4050 laptops.

Things I’ve already done:

Updated drivers (NVIDIA + Windows)

Set power mode to performance in windows settings.

Plugged in while gaming (obviously)

Looking for advice on:

Optimization tips for squeezing out extra FPS without wrecking thermals

Also curious if anyone else got caught off guard by these lower TGP variants and how you dealt with it.

My HP victus CPU went up to 80-90c while playing Roblox

So I notice when playing Roblox, My CPU would go up to 80-90c+, I had my laptop for more than a year, My Roblox is set to 120fps and when I set it up to 144fps(the max refresh rate) it would go up to more than 90c+, Is this all normal? I'm kinda worry about it, If this is how it runs on Roblox, I wonder how it will run on heavy games on steam...

Title: COD WWII crashing after install on HP Victus– need help

Hey guys,

Title: COD WWII crashing after install on HP Victus– need help

I just downloaded Call of Duty: WWII on my HP Victus laptop, but when I try to run it, I keep getting an error and the game won’t start.

I’m not exactly sure what’s causing it. The installation completed fine, but as soon as I launch the game, it throws an error (screenshot attached).

My laptop specs:

- HP Victus

- AMD Ryzen 5 8645HS

- (16gb DDR5 ram rtx3050 6gb.)

Things I’ve tried:

- Restarting the laptop

- Running the game as administrator

Still not working.

If anyone has faced this issue before or knows how to fix it, please help. I’d really appreciate it 🙏

Worst descision to buy victus 😭

It’s been about two years since I bought my HP Victus laptop. Right after the warranty expired, the right side of the display suddenly went black. Interestingly, when I switch the refresh rate or toggle between Eco mode and Default mode in OMEN, the missing portion of the screen briefly becomes visible again.

Over the past few months, the issue has worsened, and the screen now flickers unpredictably.

I took it to a local repair shop he said to reproduce issue 😭 but issue itself sucks it's totally unpredictable when it comes, and after cleaning the laptop, the problem seemed to disappear—but only for about two weeks. After that, the same issue returned.

Temps while gaming

My Victus temperatures went up to 97 degrees C while playing God of War Ragnarök. Is that normal? My Victus isn’t very powerful, but I’m not even playing on demanding graphics settings. I mean, 100 is the boiling point of water, right….what’s going on?

HP Victus 16 Power Button Sank Down

Today I opened my laptop to see some white powder around the Power button and on the screen where the power button is. I wiped it out and saw that the power button is sunk and cannot be used as it's almost in the pressed position. What happened and what should I do next?
