It's a great time to consider picking up a gaming laptop this week with the Best Buy back-to-school sale in full swing. Right now, for example, the retailer has some of the lowest prices I've ever seen on machines with the latest RTX 5000 series graphics cards.
First up, this Asus TUF A16 for $1,349 (was $1,699), which is an absolute steal for a machine with a brand-new RTX 5070 GPU. Despite its reasonable price tag, you get a Ryzen 9 chipset and 32GB of RAM with this configuration, making it a fantastic all-around workhorse for both gaming and productivity applications.
For something a little more premium, you could also consider this Gigabyte Aero X16 for $1,499 (was $1,649) or the excellent Asus ROG Strix G16 for $1,549 (was $1,999).
The latter, in particular, features a potent combination of an RTX 5070 Ti and Ryzen 9 chipset, which is extremely impressive for just under $1,600. The Gigabyte, on the other hand, only features an RTX 5070, but makes up for it with a lightweight and subtle design that's more understated than the usual gaming laptop.
You can read more about these gaming laptops in more detail below, or head on over to Best Buy for the retailer's full back-to-school sale.
