Now, it may be hard to get a desktop gaming PC for cheap, but you can buy the best gaming laptops without spending a ridiculous amount of money. Or you can look for real bargains like this one. Right now, a Gateway laptop with a Ryzen 5 processor and GTX 1650 is on sale for $599, a $300 savings over the usual price. This is one of the cheapest laptops ever with a dedicated graphics card.

The model on sale is powered by an AMD Ryzen 5 4600H processor, a 6-core/12-thread APU with integrated Radeon graphics. It also has 8GB of RAM, a 256GB SSD for Windows and gaming, and a 15.6" 1920x1080 IPS screen with up to 120Hz. A high refresh rate display on such an inexpensive laptop is rare.

For graphics, this laptop uses an Nvidia GeForce GTX 1650. This is a lower-end graphics card, but it is sufficient to comfortably play most modern games at 1080p as long as the quality settings are turned down. See our GTX 1650 review for more details, but keep in mind that we reviewed a desktop model, and laptop cards are a bit slower due to thermal limitations.
