Not sure if it’s directly relevant but I’m a law student and I too use my Victus for all the assignments/academic work, along with the internship work. On weekends and at nights, I use it for heavy gaming like Forza Horizon 5, Halo Infinite, Warzone etc. Been doing it for more than an year and no issues till now. My last HP gaming laptop lasted for 6-7 years with A LOT of abuse, so you shouldn’t be worried. You’ll probably have to get a battery replacement in a few years tho.

My only major concern was while interning virtually with a tier-1 law firm, and the HR told me that the IT Dept would install some corporate monitoring software to alter/delete the firm’s confidential data that could possibly be stored on my device. They also wanted to block the ports and USBs for the course of the internship (which is a big issue coz I won’t be able to connect my guitar or audio interface to my laptop).

Considering my past experiences, I was highly sceptical about their IT Dept’s expertise. I was afraid they would inadvertently fuck things up, or ruin my gaming experience (via the background activity/trackers etc.) for the month. So I did some research and found a way to circumvent their entire scheme. Not sure if my actions were completely legal, considering the documents that I had signed while joining. (For the record- I have manually deleted all the “data” I acquired during the internship).

To conclude, your laptop will be fine. Just make sure you don’t allow the firm’s “techies” to touch your personal laptop.
