If you really value an incredibly fast refresh rate for something like competitive esports, then the aptly named Alienware AW2524H is what you’re looking for.

That probably is the case given it’s a smaller 25-inch screen where a lower resolution doesn’t matter as much,

Best Chromebook deals: Cheap computers starting at $54
HP Elite Dragonfly Chromebook front view showing display and keyboard deck.

If you want to grab yourself a Windows laptop but feel that the prices are pretty high, especially when it comes to the best laptops on the market, you may want to consider going for a Chromebook instead. That's because ChromeOS tends to be a lot more lightweight than Windows, so the specs you have can go a much longer way, and even the best Chromebooks don't cost as much as the best Windows laptops. Even better, you can still get some great Chromebook deals, which is why we went out and collected our favorites below. You'll find crossovers with our lists of the best laptop deals (student laptop deals in particular) and major brands like HP laptop deals, Acer laptop deals, Dell laptop deals and Lenovo laptop deals.
HP Chromebook 11A G6 Education Edition -- $46, was $244

Probably one of the cheapest options you're going to find for a Chromebook is this education edition that's made to be as basic as possible to bring the price down. The processor is a very entry-level AMD A4 9120C which is just about enough to get productivity tasks completely, and probably can't handle more complex tasks. The 4 GB of RAM isn't a lot either, but at least with ChromeOS not being as demanding resource-wise, you shouldn't feel it as much as you would on a Windows device. The biggest downside is the 16GB SSD, which means you will almost certainly have to rely on one of these external hard drive deals.
