Better than Amazon: Best Buy’s gaming laptop deals start at just $699 today
Looking for a gaming laptop? You may be looking at the Amazon Big Spring Sale as a possible option, but let me tell you up front: today’s best deals are actually at Best Buy.
Do not get me wrong – Amazon’s deals on gaming laptops today are OK, but in my opinion they don’t quite match the competition when it comes to real value.
For example, you can get this nicely equipped Acer Nitro 5 for just $699 (was $949) at Best Buy today – a great option if you’re on a strict budget. For comparison, the cheapest gaming laptop in the Amazon Spring Sale is the Asus Strix G15 for $749 (was $949.99)which has a slightly weaker graphics card and only 8 GB of RAM, as opposed to the Acer’s 16 GB.
The more expensive options are also stronger at Best Buy these days – take this MSI Cyborg for $849.99 (was $1,099) or this MSI Crosshair for $1,199 (was $1,399). Both machines have been slightly cheaper in the past – especially during Black Friday and Presidents’ Day – but they are still among the cheapest gaming laptops with an RTX 4060 and RTX 4070 graphics card, respectively. They’re both great choices if you’re looking at the cheapest equivalent machine on Amazon currently costs $1,149.
