GIGABYTE’s AERO series laptops come loaded with some great hardware for the price, and the configuration on sale today features AMD’s Ryzen AI 7 350 eight-core processor, 16GB RAM, and a 1TB SSD for fast performance and ample storage. As an entry-level machine, this one packs an RTX 5070 laptop GPU with 8GB VRAM, which should be able to drive up to 165Hz on the 16-inch WQXGA display for smooth gaming and creative workloads. Even with all that power packed inside, the chassis remains impressively slim at just 0.65 inches thick. You also get stereo speakers and a solid selection of ports, including HDMI 2.1, four USB ports, and more.

Acer’s Nitro V 16S is also worth a look at $1,200, if you don’t spending a bit more for your gaming laptop. This one is powered by an RTX 5070 GPU, and it even comes with a FREE 007 First Light game code.
