Here are the best gaming laptop sales
Hello deal hunters!
The best gaming laptop deals of the week are here - Newer RTX 50 models are finally hitting attractive prices:
This Week’s Best Deals
CPU: Intel Core 7 240H GPU: NVIDIA RTX 5060 RAM: 32GB DDR5-5600 Display: 16” 2560 × 1600 120Hz SSD: 1TB $989.99 at Dell Comments: This is one of the cheapest gaming laptops with RTX 5060 graphics we’ve seen so far, and finally similar in price to what was normal for 4060 models a year ago. The Aurora series is Alienware’s new “budget” range that replaces the Dell G series, and I recently bought this exact configuration to review. That’s still a few weeks away unfortunately, but so far it seems like a decent laptop for the price. |
CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 8940HX GPU: NVIDIA RTX 5070 Ti RAM: 16GB DDR5-5600 Display: 16” 1920 × 1200 165Hz SSD: 1TB $1609.99 at Best Buy Comments: For some context, the RTX 5070 Ti performs slightly behind the RTX 4080 (comparison video coming soon!) - and good quality RTX 4080 laptops at this price almost never happened. We haven’t yet reviewed the 2025 model of this laptop, but the 2024 and 2023 chassis was exceptional with very few downsides. |
CPU: Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX GPU: NVIDIA RTX 5070 Ti RAM: 32GB DDR5-5600 Display: 16” 2560 × 1600 165Hz OLED SSD: 1TB $2027.99 at Lenovo Comments: This laptop has the same graphics as the Strix G16 above, but the extra $400 gets you double the RAM and an OLED screen. This is another one we have in the queue to review, but like the last gen Pro series, it’s a premium gaming laptop and offers good performance. |
CPU: Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX GPU: NVIDIA RTX 5090 RAM: 16GB DDR5-5600 Display: 16” 2560 × 1600 240Hz SSD: 512GB $2359.99 at HP Comments: A bit more expensive than the others, but this is one of the cheapest RTX 5090 laptops we’ve seen so far. You can customize it quite a bit when ordering, so more RAM/SSD/OLED screen will increase the price - probably why it’s so low (at least for a 5090 laptop!) It costs similar to what we often saw last gen 4090 laptops go for, which is good considering the 5090 is only slightly faster than the 4090 in games. |

Video of the Week
Is it worth paying more for an RTX 5080 gaming laptop, or should you save some money with the 5070 Ti?

Tip of the Week - When is the Best Time to Buy a Gaming Laptop?
We’ve tracked deals on the https://gaminglaptop.deals site for years now - these are the best sale periods we’ve seen:
Black Friday / Cyber Monday (November): The best sales all year happen here, a month or so before Christmas.
Amazon Prime Day (July): Alright so we don’t normally see too many good deals from Amazon. But when Amazon runs their big sale of the year, other companies tend to jump in with their own sales too. This is happening this week! Check the deals site often throughout the week!
Back to School Sales (July/August): These sales are usually for more general purpose laptops for school use, but gaming models still see some nice deals.
This explains why there are finally deals on newer RTX 50 models.
We haven’t sent our weekly deal email out for a few weeks now because the deals weren’t good enough.
Hopefully this is the start of that changing. In previous years July is typically when we first see prices lower and then slowly keep lowering until Black Friday.
Alright, these are our favorite gaming laptop deals of the week! Did we miss something you have your eyes on 👀? Reply and let us know!
