I finished reviewing an RTX 4050 version of the HP Victus 16 a few weeks ago, but it's the RTX 4070 configuration that's been occupying my thoughts ever since. I spotted its $1,399.99 MSRP shifting a little at the start of October,

The most stunning thing about this HP Victus 16 is that features an Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070 graphics card while coming in at under $1,000. We usually expect such laptops to be closer to $1,500 up to $2,000, and this is one of the best GPUs you can get without shelling out a fortune.

Chuck in a bigger SSD and it's a bit of a barnstormer for this sort of cash.

A massive $500 discount makes this the cheapest gaming laptop deal I've ever seen to feature an RTX 4070 graphics card. In fact, you usually don't see machines carrying a GPU like this for under $1,000, let alone $900.

This MSI Katana 15 runs on a powerful AMD Ryzen 9 8945HS CPU, which is just about ideal for high-performance tasks and gaming. It also has 16GB of RAM for snappy multitasking, and you can always upgrade later with two 32GB DDR5 RAM sticks, bumping it up to 64GB of RAM.
