It may have an older CPU, but this Leopard can still run with the young cubs thanks to the RTX 3080, and with the MSI GP66 Leopard currently at $1,569.99 (open in new tab), it's one of the smartest buys this Cyber Monday! It may be.

The machine's other specs aren't anything to sniff at either: it has 16GB of DDR4 RAM, which can be expanded if you want a larger capacity. The only downside is that it only has 512GB of storage.

Anyone who has installed any of the major games released in the last few years will find the storage cramped.

On top of that, it has a beautiful 15.6" IPS screen at 1080p; I know we live in a vivid world of 4K and 1440p, but 1080p is plenty for a 15" laptop screen. And when paired with the RTX 3080, it can deliver all the 144 frames per second that the refresh rate promises.

Even outside of the chaos of Cyber Monday sales, this is a quietly confident laptop, and when reduced to such a price, it's really hard to resist. For gaming on the go, you'd be hard-pressed to find a better choice than this reliable old Leopard.
