Should you be in need of a gaming laptop this year, but somehow remain empty-lapped after the Black Friday bonanza, don't fret. There are still plenty of gaming laptop deals to be had over Cyber Monday. That even includes gaming laptops with current-gen CPUs and GPUs. Sometimes both, if you're lucky.
This Cyber Monday, you could see yourself bagging an RTX 40-series gaming machine with enough clout to break through into the Borderworld and drag Half Life 3 kicking and screaming into existence. Failing that, you could at the very least end up with a portable gaming machine that doesn't look like Knight Rider or some squashed Gundam reject, but instead rocks the kind of sleek aesthetic even a Bond villain would be jealous of. Imagine finding a machine with more RAM than even a hundred Chrome tabs could eat up.
All things are possible in the glowing RGB light of Cyber Monday's dawn. I've made sure to include something from every power level here, in case you've realised you don't need 140 frames per second at all times. This is a particularly great time to bag an older model, as many are going for deep discounts. It's unlikely these deals will stick around as Cyber Week rounds out, though, so don't wait too long to grab one.

This is a lot of laptop for not very much money. To start with, you're getting a 10-core, 16-thread CPU that will easily cope with pretty much any game you throw at it. There's an RTX 4060 graphics chip too, that supports DLSS upscaling and frame generation. The main caveats here are that storage is a bit disappointing, so you'll probably want to upgrade it at
