Our Verdict
ASUS TUF Gaming A16 Advantage Edition (2023)
HP Victus 16 (2024)
The HP Victus 16 (2024) and the ASUS TUF Gaming A16 Advantage Edition (2023) are both great budget gaming laptops with AMD CPUs. However, the HP uses NVIDIA discrete GPUs, while the ASUS uses AMD GPUs. Performance will depend on which configuration you get, though it's worth noting that NVIDIA's implementation of features like DLSS and Frame Generation typically perform better, at least in their current versions. On the other hand, the ASUS has an additional SSD slot, allowing you to store more games, and it'll provide a superior visual experience when gaming, as its displays support variable refresh rate.
