Did you spill liquid on your HP Victus during a long gaming session? Every minute counts. Repair usually takes 1–3 working days, but what you do in the first moments determines the outcome.
In short: if you’ve spilt liquid on your HP Victus, immediately disconnect the power, turn off the laptop, flip it upside down with the affected side facing downwards, and bring it to our service centre as quickly as possible so we can disconnect the battery in time. In a gaming laptop with powerful components and higher power draw, the risk of serious short circuit is greater than in a regular office laptop, so there’s absolutely no time to spare.
Our experience with HP Victus
We’ve repaired 2 HP Victus laptops after liquid damage. This is HP’s mid-range gaming series that generates considerable heat, which means the effects of liquid damage can be more serious here than in a regular home laptop.
Victus — why liquid damage can be riskier here
Victus, as a gaming laptop with more powerful components and higher power draw under load, has a greater risk of serious short circuit when in contact with liquid than laptops with lower power consumption. That’s why with Victus models we check particularly carefully whether a short circuit has occurred on the motherboard before we propose further repair steps.
