I think I may have just found one of the best bang-for-the-buck gaming PC deals of the year, courtesy of the excellent Nvidia Gaming Week sale at Walmart.

Right now, you can pick up this RTX 5070-equipped Acer Nitro 60 for just $1,099 (was $1,899), which is a bonkers low price considering this machine not only features said graphics card, but also a Ryzen 7 chipset, 32GB of RAM, and a 2TB SSD.

Granted, the Ryzen 7-7000 under the hood isn't one of AMD's strongest, but it's still an exceptional pairing with the RTX 5070. Put together, you shouldn't have any issues outputting some serious 1440p gaming performance with this machine, which is impressive right out of the box.

We haven't personally reviewed this machine here at TechRadar, but I'm cautiously optimistic in recommending it. You get a great graphics card, a decent case with easily accessible components, and a nice helping of storage. The 650-watt power supply could be one to upgrade in the future if you're planning on swapping your GPU, but it's definitely not a deal-breaker.

For sheer bang-for-the-buck, this deal offers Black Friday levels of value in my opinion.

Not only do you get a strong combination of an RTX 5070 graphics card and Ryzen 7 chipset, but you're paying an almost unbeatable price for a rig of this calibre. Generally speaking, I'd expect to pay at least $1,300 for these specs at a discount, so this is a fantastic deal.

If you're looking for a cheap (and I mean dirt cheap) gaming laptop, then this HP Victus 15 is a solid option. The specs include an RTX 4050 graphics card and a 13th-gen Intel Core i5 chipset, which are older specs now, but still superb if you're just looking for something to cover the basics. Don't expect fireworks, of course, but this machine should be able to play older and less demanding titles decently at 1080p resolution.

If you'd prefer a gaming laptop, you can also consider this Acer Nitro V, which is a slightly newer (yet still cheap) option. Under the hood, the RTX 5050 graphics card and Ryzen 5 chipset are equivalent specs to the HP above, just with the latest generation tech. That should afford a slightly smoother experience in-game, as well as better support for Multi Frame Generation and other software tricks.
