Known Issues & Fixes

Issue Solution / Fix
Some early reviewers noted the 200W adapter is on the lighter side for an RTX 5060 configuration compared to rivals, limiting sustained peak performance slightly. Not a defect; use Omen Gaming Hub's balanced performance mode for sustained workloads; peak boost clocks are brief by design at this power budget.
A number of users reported the single-zone backlighting feels basic compared to Omen's per-key RGB, a common complaint about the Victus line generally. Not fixable; this is a deliberate cost-cutting measure to keep the Victus line affordable. The Omen series offers RGB if that's a priority.
