The most difficult part is removing the cover and he decides not to show it.

0:42 like 50% of people watching this want to see you pop that lid. Why skip it? That's the hardest part unless you're repasting.
I have this laptop and another, better gaming laptop. The Victus 15 is a motha to open.

Im using 24gb of ram in mine, and running at full speed. If people wanna eventually upgrade to 32gb but only have the money for a single 16gb kit, go for it. Leave the 8gb stick in it, and just make sure its 5600mhz cl46. Watching this video because I wanna upgrade the storage now, the 512gb ssd this thing comes with is tiny to todays standards. I do recommend for anyone that wants to keep their stuff to get a m.2 enclosure, you can use software to transfer your entire c drive to your new drive. You can then use your old drive as a fast usb drive, just use the software or windows to format the old drive once you've made sure your new one boots.

This is actually great, I remember reading online that there were limits but 96gb of ram running perfectly fine, really opens the potential of the laptop for sure!

The built in Ethernet jack worked for me when installing windows 11 without extra drivers. Thanks for this video!

Could have cloned your original SSD to the 2 TB SSD and make it bootable?

On a side note - Damn I wish I was american when it's time to buy new computer gaming parts/laptops. Getting the Victus 15 with a 4050 for only 600 USD from walmart is insane value.

I thought I had a good deal ( And I do, considering local market and most stuff on amazon, newegg - I checked) nabbing the 2050 version, 16 ram, and AMD Ryzen 5 7535HS for 600$ while I was in Thailand, but that's a whole tier better for pretty much the same price.

I just completed my RAM upgrade a few minutes ago. Here are my thoughts:
1) There's no way I could've unhinged the plastic prongs without my new prying tool. I also had used the mini screwdriver to hold each corner up to be sure they wouldn't click back into place, but I was just nervous. I suggest getting the prying tool rather than the mini guitar pick ones because the leverage is so much better and it's around the same price as the 10 packs of picks.
2) When inputting the RAM sticks, insert at a diagonal and gently push down until it clicks into place. I got two 16 GB sticks to be sure 100% they are compatible (anyone want my extra stick from the build lol). I didn't insert the second one at a diagonal before pushing down, so it didn't click into place. Removing and reinserting was a hassle.
3) Unless you are also replacing the SSD, there's no setup once you turn it on.

I'm pretty happy with my purchase, I'll be using this for college so I'm glad everything worked out. I choose 32 GB of RAM to be 100% sure there's no issues in the future, but I don't see the need to increase HD space with cloud storage. I'll probably only play a few games at a time on here anyway, so I don't mind reinstalling games.

Make a video on (battary care feature not available on hp victus but available in hp omen why?)

[kamertonaudiophileplayer]

Excellent guide, I can upgrade my laptop now. Try LLM, 96GB will be not enough.

[GaloMatagayIII]

Does it void the warranty when you upgrade your SSD?

[FubarMike]

Where there any screws under the rubber strips on the bottom? I know HP loves to pull shit like that.

[chaleboy]

The 4tb wouldn't work cause you would need a better heat sync to support it unless ot has a dual to where you can put 2 slots for 2tb on each slot

[EthanTheMan]

Geez 96 gbs of ram hell I thought 32 was a lot. I have 32 gb in mine and its amazing

[johnpaulbacon]

could maybe clone from the original with a usb to m.2 adapter

[amitmannur]

Can you tell me screw size for ssd holder ? I used same as screw which i used to remove outer lid but it did not work .

[kapilvijay]

Hey i did found another slot od ssd but its not soldered, if i solder myself and add another ssd to it will it work?

[CryMore]

Can we get a new video showing cs2 and the others games again, now with more RAM?

[GMaN]

i wish i had the patience to do this shit myself lol i just need to find someone to do it for me

[GMaN]

would buying a "Corsair Vengeance series 32GB DDR4 3200mhz sodimm laptop memory-black" be a good product to buy to upgrade this computer?
