My favorite RTX 50 gaming laptops are up to $450 off for Prime Day — 7 deals I'd shop before they're gone

The final hours of Amazon's big Prime Day sale are looming, but there are discounts galore on RTX 50-series laptops that shouldn't be missed. If you're in the market for an upgrade, I've spotted just the bargain deals on the latest gaming machines — and yes, it starts at under $900.
Epic discounts on Nvidia GeForce RTX 50-equipped laptops don't come all that often, but right now, you can find an Alienware 16 Aurora with an RTX 5050 for just $899 at Amazon. That's a steal for a gaming laptop, but if you're after even more power, this Gigabyte Aero X16 with an RTX 5070 is $450 off at Best Buy. At $1,199, that's the cheapest RTX 5070 machine I've ever seen.
There's more where that came from, and I've picked the best RTX 50 gaming laptop deals that are a steal for under $1,500, going beyond just Amazon's big sale. Whether you're ready to check out what all the RTX 50-series fuss is about (it's impressive) or need a proper gaming laptop upgrade, don't miss out on these deals before they're gone.
As an avid gamer, these are the laptops I'd be jumping on, so let's dive into the deals.

Expect an Intel Core 7 240H CPU, an RTX 5050 GPU, 16GB of DDR5 RAM and a 1TB SSD.

Easily one of the best RTX 50-series gaming laptops just got a deep $300 price cut. This packs the RTX 5060 (for all that multi-frame generation goodness), Intel Core i7-14650HX, 16GB DDR5 RAM and 1TB SSD, alongside Wi-Fi 7 connectivity.
This is RTX 5070 performance for the price of an RTX 5060 laptop, while not ignoring the other specs that make for a good gaming laptop — sharp, fluid display, AMD Ryzen AI 7 350 CPU, 32GB DDR5 RAM and a 1TB SSD.
I'm a huge fan of the updated Asus TUF Gaming range, and this Asus TUF Gaming A16 now offers pure value with this big discount and the specs it boasts. Expect an AMD Ryzen 9 270 CPU, RTX 5070 GPU, 32GB of RAM and a 1TB SSD. Even better, its 16-inch FHD+ (1920 x 1200) display offers a great 165Hz refresh rate. I tested the Asus TUF Gaming A18, and I couldn't get enough of playing on that machine, so this A16 won't be all that different.

Sporting the might of an RTX 5070 Ti, this MSI Vector 16 HX AI gaming laptop boasts some powerful specs. Along with powering through the latest PC games, expect an Intel Core Ultra 7 255HX CPU, 16GB of DDR5 RAM and a 16-inch FHD+ (1920 x 1200) display with a 144Hz refresh rate. It comes with 512GB for storage, which is a tad low for gaming, but that can always be fixed with an external SSD.
