Looking for a gaming laptop? You may be eying the Amazon Big Spring Sale as a potential option, but let me tell you upfront – today’s best deals are actually at Best Buy.
Don’t get me wrong – Amazon’s deals on gaming laptops today are OK, but they don’t quite match the competition when it comes to outright value, in my opinion.
For example, you can get this decently specced-out Acer Nitro 5 for just $699 (was $949) at Best Buy today – a great option if you’re strictly on a budget. By comparison, the cheapest gaming laptop in the Amazon Spring Sale is the Asus Strix G15 for $749 (was $949.99), which features a slightly weaker graphics card and only 8GB of RAM in contrast to the Acer’s 16GB.
Higher-end options are stronger at Best Buy today, too – take this MSI Cyborg for $849.99 (was $1,099) or this MSI Crosshair for $1,199 (was $1,399). Both these machines have been slightly cheaper in the past – most notably over Black Friday and Presidents’ Day – but they’re still some of the lowest-priced gaming laptops to feature an RTX 4060 and RTX 4070 graphics card, respectively. They’re both great choices when you consider the cheapest equivalent machine at Amazon costs $1,149 right now.
