You should be prepared to spend some serious cash if you want to buy a powerful gaming laptop like the Alienware x16, but fortunately, there are savings that you can enjoy with your purchase. Dell has slashed the machine’s price with a $950 discount, so it’s down from $3,450 to $2,500 — it’s still not a budget-friendly device, but it’s a reasonable price considering its capabilities. This bargain may not last long though, as gaming laptop deals almost always expire sooner than you think, so you have to proceed with the transaction as soon as possible if you’re interested.

I’d buy one of these 4 gaming monitors while Amazon Prime deals are still live
Computer Hardware, Electronics, Hardware

A monitor is one of those PC upgrades I’m usually reluctant to rush into. Too many options, and once you start looking at OLED panels, ultrawides, 4K resolutions, and high refresh rates, prices can get expensive fast. That’s exactly why Amazon Prime sales are usually a good time to start looking.

I’ve reviewed the monitor deals currently available on Amazon, and these four caught my attention. There’s a little bit of everything here, from a 240Hz OLED that should be fantastic for gaming to a 34-inch ultrawide and even a monitor capable of hitting an absurd 480Hz. More importantly, all four are on sale right now, with one down as much as 44%.

Asus Zenbook 14 hits the shelves to tackle MacBook Neo with OLED, better ports, and other perks
At just $100 over the MacBook Neo, you get an OLED display, more versatile ports, biometric authentication on all models, and a backlit keyboard.
Asus Zenbook 14

The entry-point Asus ZenBook 14 is finally up for grabs in the US market, and this one is staring right at the MacBook Neo with a handful of practical perks. Just like the MacBook Neo, Asus' offering also comes with an all-metallic build that uses the proprietary Ceraluminum material that we have seen on pricier ZenBooks.

But there are a handful of upgrades on this $800 laptop that set it apart from its $700 competitor from Apple. The most notable one is a 14-inch OLED display, which offers a much better viewing experience than what you get on the MacBook Neo. The port selection is also pretty generous, as you get a pair of USB-C ports, a full-size USB Type-A port, and an HDMI port as well.
