Usually available for $1,370 at Best Buy, this $320-off laptop has everything you could need — a gorgeous display, a powerful CPU, plenty of storage space, and a top-notch graphics card. Frankly, you can't go wrong by getting this laptop.
For starters, the HP Victus has a 15.6-inch IPS display with a decent 1920×1080 resolution and a 144Hz refresh rate. This combo will deliver good visuals no matter if you're watching movies or playing games. That speedy refresh rate, however, is going to ensure you can't blame a slow screen on your lack of reaction time during boss fights.
Overall, this laptop was built for speed. With an Intel Core i7 and 16GB DDR5 RAM, this model is ready to tackle your daily workload, gaming, and keeping entirely too many tabs open in your browser. Throw in the RTX 5060 and you get a future-proof laptop — at least for a few years.
Frankly, when you see a laptop with these specs for $1,050 the only possible reaction is to add it to your cart because that's a purchase you won't regret.
That's a fantastic price for a great gaming laptop

There's really only one problem: my laptop is too old for a Windows 11 update. On October 14th, 2025, Windows 10 will reach the end of its life period, which means no new features or security updates. The former is not a big problem. The latter will be a disaster.
I'm not alone in this situation. Over 50 percent of users are still running Windows 10, and this figure is gradually dropping. How many will have updated in six months' time is anyone's guess, but whatever the percentage, one thing is clear.

What makes this challenging is that Windows 11 is so technically demanding that it's not possible to update all fully functional computers. Sadly, my six-year-old laptop is one of them.
If Microsoft stops updating Windows 10, it wo
