If you don't want a hulking gaming laptop, let me introduce the Zephyrus 14 (see our review): a 14-incher that can game without busting your bank balance or your shoulder when lugging it around—no-nonsense specs in a delightful package.

I'm going to be entirely up front with you: You can find RTX 4060 gaming laptops on sale for a less cash than this. In fact, you can buy an RTX 4070 gaming laptop for less cash than this. And we're sure to find more with Black Friday around the corner. Why bother with the G14 at all, then, you might ask? Well, it's the loveliest 14-inch gaming laptop around, which is a compact form factor I can't get enough of, and the CPU in this machine is some serious kit you won't find in many cheaper models.

First off, you can pick up this gaming laptop for $1,300 over at Best Buy. That's a reduction of around $300 on the regular sale price, though I can't see many shifting for $1,600. This discounted price seems a fairer asking price, considering the quality of the device.
