HP Lists Victus 15 Gaming Laptop Model with GeForce RTX 5060 & 5050 Mobile GPUs

[T0@st]

Last December, details of NVIDIA's RTX GeForce 50-series of mobile GPUs leaked online—fast-forward to the present day; Team Green and hardware partners are touted to release higher-end devices at some point next month, following a pre-order period. Lower-end offerings seem to be distant prospects; industry moles suggest a May launch window. Last week rumors emerged online; notebook supply chain insiders reckon that a "significant delay" will affect initial shipments of GeForce RTX 50-equipped laptops. It is not clear whether these issues will impact the rumored GeForce RTX 5060 and RTX 5050 mobile models, but HP has accidentally confirmed that an updated Victus laptop will utilize the aforementioned budget-friendly GPUs.

VideoCardz has preserved an intriguing screenshot. Their report alleges that a refreshed HP Victus 15 laptop variant (FA2) utilizes Intel 13th Gen "Raptor Lake" processors, paired with unannounced "hybrid graphics" options. HP's product component list includes last-gen Core 7 240H, Core 5 230H, Core i7-13620H, and Core i5-13420H processor SKUs. Older configurations of this 15.6" gaming laptop sported mobile GeForce RTX 4050, RTX 3050, RTX 3050A, and RTX 2050 GPUs. The leaked document suggests that modernized graphics packages are in the pipeline, but HP has not confirmed any concrete timelines.

More 8GB rubbish in 2025. It's the same TSMC 4N process node as last time so there aren't even any performance or efficiency improvements. Your 115W 4060 will match the 5060 Watt for Watt, most likely.

If the 5050 gets 8GB, it'll be an improvement over the 4050's 6GB since such a weak GPU is likely to be used for older games and esports titles with a low-end 1080p display and as much as I want to say that 8GB is inexcusable, it might at least not be an immediate disappointment, given the already low expectations of entry-level gaming.
