So I just tested a 65W USB-C dedicated power brick and it does nothing. So it seems USB-C charging is NOT SUPPORTED on the Victus.
Looking further through the manual I see the following as well. I find this description quite vage to be honest. "and charge" Could mean either way right?
Page 4 Chapter 2 Getting to know your computer / Left side
- Table 2-2 Left-side components and their descriptions
The earlier provided screenshot (Page 56 Chapter 13 Specifications / Input power (PDF-page68)) really works confusing and in my opinion should be edited / partially removed from the manual as it seems, USB-C charging is NOT SUPPORTED.
Unfortunately I discovered the hard way.
Here's a link to the English manual (instead of the previous linkt referring to the Dutch manual)

The or more a manual states the following, and so it seem it does, but can't make out if this manual is actually specifically for the HP Victus or not. I did download it via HP portal under my laptop (Here)
Could anybody clear this up before I blow up my USB-C port on the first day 😅

You can charge it with a USB-C power adapter.
I wouldn't use a power adapter with more than 65 Watts.

I will have to amend that statement and say 90W. 150 Watt
The information you provided earlier does show that 90W is OK.
M42546-001 is the replacement power adapter part number and it is 150 W.
