Gaming laptop deals are getting really cheap these days thanks to the latest RTX cards and new chips fromIntelandAMDslated to hit the market soon. We’ve just spotted a bargain in the form of this 15.6-inch Gateway Creatorfor $599at Walmart, which, while not rocking the next-gen specs, does pack in a ton of power for the cash.
For $300 less than its initial sales price, you’re getting an AMD Ryzen 5-4600H processor, 8GB of RAM, a 256GB SSD, a GTX 1650 graphics card, and even a 120Hz refresh rate display. These are some extremely competitive specs for the money - especially when you compare it to other gaming laptop deals this week.
Take this 15.6-inchAcerNitro 5 atAmazonfor $741.13, for example. This Acer likely features a slightly better screen (144Hz vs. 120Hz), but everything else is almost exactly the same. When comparing the Ryzen 5 processor in the Gateway versus the Intel Core i5 in the Acer, you’re also pretty much looking at a dead-heat performance-wise for gaming, which makes the Gateway pull ahead when it comes to straight value.
So, if you’re looking for a cheap, and we meancheap gaming laptop dealthat’s suitable for your more casual gaming applications likeFortniteat 1080p, then this Gateway has a very low barrier of entry indeed.
