If you want to get into PC gaming, but the cost and sheer amount of accessories feels inaccessible, a gaming laptop is the way to go. A laptop built specifically for gaming packs everything you need under the hood without you needing to shell out for a bunch of extra components. Of course, gaming laptops can also cost an arm and a leg, but there are plenty of budget options (and deals!) as well.
The bad news is it's not traditionally one of the best times to be looking for a new laptop at a discount. The good news is this ASUS ROG Strix model is breaking the rules. As of April 30, you can get the ASUS ROG Strix G16 (Intel Core i7-14650HX, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060, 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD) for $1,299.99 instead of its original list price of $1,499.99. That's $200 you get to keep in your pocket. Plus, you'll get a free month of Xbox Game Pass with your purchase.
This configuration comes with some serious firepower for the price, including an Intel Core i7-14650HX processor, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 graphics, 16GB of DDR5 RAM for speed and efficiency, and a spacious 1TB PCIe Gen 4 SSD for seamless multitasking. While its 165Hz refresh rate and 3ms response time could certainly be faster, but for this price, corners have to be cut somewhere.
If you're new to PC gaming or looking for a more portable (yet affordable) gaming rig, the ASUS ROG Strix G615JMR-AS74 is a solid pick at full price. At $200 off, it's an excellent value.
