We see a lot of gaming laptop deals in our line of work. With PC graphics and performance evolving on a daily basis, there’s always new gaming tech on the horizon. If you’re the kind of enthusiast who takes power and accuracy very seriously, you’ll want to feast your eyes on the Asus ROG Zephyrus G16 Gaming Laptop.

It’s an absolute workhorse of a gaming laptop, and for a limited time, Best Buy is selling it for $2,050 after a $250 discount. One of our favorite features of this Windows laptop is its Copilot+ compatibility (the feature goes live in late November 2024), a Windows AI suite that joins the ranks of popular tools like ChatGPT and Google AI.

Why you should buy the Asus ROG Zephyrus G16

The best gaming PCs are equipped to handle any challenge. Whether you’re playing a graphically demanding title like Alan Wake 2 or an NPC-filled dungeon crawler (Diablo IV anyone?), the Zephyrus G16 is equipped with some of the top PC internals, including an AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX CPU, 32GB of RAM, and 2TB of storage. Graphics are handled by the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070, which is one of the best GPUs for color rendering, ray tracing, and frame optimization. 

The Zephyrus G16 has a 16-inch OLED ROG Nebula Display that delivers up to 2.5K resolution at 240Hz, along with 0.2ms response time and NVIDIA G-SYNC support for reduced stuttering and input lag. Stay ahead of the action and say goodbye to image ghosting and other frame-based maladies. We’re also glad to see Asus put a lot of thought into cooling, as the Zephyrus 16 uses Liquid Metal, 2nd Gen Arc Flow Fans, and a Vapor Chamber to keep your internals from overheating. 

Other great features include three months of Xbox Game Pass on the house, HDMI and USB connections, along with an SD card reader and a headphone jack. It’s hard to say how long laptop deals like this one will last, so it’s not a bad idea to act fast on this offer.

Save $250 when you purchase the Asus ROG Zephyrus G16 Gaming Laptop at Best Buy, and be sure to check out some of the best gaming headset deals we’ve been finding.

Shopping for back-to-school? These are the webcam lights I’d actually turn on before a Zoom call
From a budget clip light to a proper desk setup, there's a webcam light here for every price.
Head, Person, Face

Between online classes, group project calls, and the occasional job interview over Zoom, your webcam will be doing a lot more heavy lifting in school than it ever did at home. The problem is that most laptop cameras are bad in low light, and a single overhead bulb or a window behind you turns every call into a game of "wait, can you see me okay?"

A good webcam light fixes that faster than moving your whole desk around. I picked five, starting with the most affordable and working up to the one that's genuinely overkill for a Zoom call but still worth knowing about.

Google Chrome

Chrome's Reading Mode just got a new button tucked inside its settings menu. Google is quietly testing a translate option for the feature on Chrome Canary, the browser's experimental testing channel where new ideas show up long before they're ready for everyday use.

What does this new translate button actually do?

AI dramas need actors, so Chinese platforms are turning human faces into stock assets
People can now earn money by licensing their likenesses to AI creators, although keeping track of where those digital faces end up may prove considerably harder
Adult, Female, Person

People in China can now license their face to AI much like a photographer licenses a stock image. AI creators can then make that likeness speak, move, and appear as different characters in short dramas or ads.

Contributors have earned between $15 and $700 through platforms such as ActID and New Claw, according to Rest of World.
