Best Buy gaming laptop deals

Lenovo LOQ 15: was $949 now $629 @ Best Buy

Lenovo LOQ 15: was $949 now $629 @ Best Buy
A decent gaming laptop deal that may not boast the most cutting edge graphics tech, but the RTX 3050 still has enough grunt to handle most modern games around a solid 30 fps (if not higher) at this laptop's native 1080p resolution. The 144Hz refresh rate means response times are extremely speedy, while 8GB of DDR5 RAM and an 13th Gen Intel Core i5-13420H processor round off this mid-range gaming laptop nicely. 

Acer Predator Helios Neo 16: was $1,349 now $949 @ Best Buy

Acer Predator Helios Neo 16: was $1,349 now $949 @ Best Buy
The Acer Predator Helios Neo is a powerful gaming laptop that can be used for just about any task. The $400 discount is obviously the headline news here, but under the hood, there's plenty to write home about the Helios' innards. Its 16-inch panel with 165Hz refresh rate, Intel Core i7-13700HX CPU, 16GB of RAM, 512GB SSD, and GeForce RTX 4050 GPU make for a combo that's very much up to the task of handling modern PC games at a solid frame rate.

While not the lowest price we've ever seen, right now Best Buy has this well-balanced gaming machine for $120 off. The 16-inch Asus TUF Gaming Laptop comes equipped with an AMD Ryzen 7735HS CPU, AMD Radeon RX 7600S GPU, 16GB of DDR5 RAM and a full HD, 165Hz LED display. Those specs should be able to handle big PC hits such as Starfield at frame rates above what the Xbox Series X can muster up.
