Best gaming laptop deals: Razer, Alienware, MSI, and more

There has been a huge boom in gaming laptops in the past few years; once they were bulky, expensive, and not that good, we now have thin and lightweight configurations with lots of power. We’re also seeing more and more powerful GPUs in gaming laptops, although it’s important to note that even if laptop GPUs have the same name as desktop GPUs, they often aren’t the same. Even so, having a laptop RTX 4070 or 4080, which are one step down from their desktop counterparts, are leaps and bounds better than a few years ago when we’d have to rely on the processor to do all the graphical lifting.

There’s a lot of variety to pick from, and the market is saturated with deals, so to help you along, we’ve collected some of our favorite gaming laptop deals below. We’ve broken it up between Intel CPUs and AMD CPUs so you can pick the processor family you feel most comfortable with.

Best Gaming Laptop Deals (Intel)

The great thing about Intel-based gaming laptops is that there are a lot more configurations available for you to pick from. That means more deals and a better way to hone in on a specific type of CPU/GPU combo that you’re looking for. You also won’t struggle to find laptops with the top-end GPUs like the RTX 4090.

Best Gaming Laptop Deals (AMD)

Where AMD lacks in terms of variety, it more than makes up for both efficiency and cost. AMD CPUs tend to be less expensive for the same amount of power, although, because they aren’t as popular, you tend to find fewer deals and not as many configurations as Intel. Luckily, that’s started to change in the past few years, and we’re even finally seeing AMD-based gaming laptops with the most powerful GPUs, like the RTX 4090 or the RX 7900M.

  • MSI Bravo 15 with RTX 4050 —
  • Dell G15 with RTX 4060 —
  • Legion Slim 5 Gen 8 with RTX 4060 —
  • ASUS ROG Zephyrus G14 with RTX 4060 —
  • Alienware m18 with RX 7900M —
  • Alienware m16 with RTX 4090 —

Best Dell XPS deals: Save on Dell XPS 13, Dell XPS 15 and Dell XPS 17

The Dell XPS is one of our favorite laptop lines out there. XPS laptops come in tons of different options, from smaller, budget laptops that are great for students and casual users, to 17-inch behemoths that pack a ton of power. We've pulled out our favorite Dell XPS laptop deals below, organizing them by XPS 13, XPS 15 and XPS 17.

While the most obvious difference between models is the size of the screen, there are a few other trends you can see as the models get bigger. More room in the chassis means more room for components, so the XPS17 models tend to have more RAM and better graphics cards and CPUs than the smaller laptops. Dell also assumes that the larger laptops will be used by professionals, so the components can keep up with a higher level of processing power demands.
