The greatest PC deals this Prime Day are all the RTX 4070 gaming laptops under $1,200
Acer Nitro 16 | RTX 4070 | Ryzen 7 7735HS | 16-inch | 1600p | 165 Hz | 16 GB DDR5 | 512 GB SSD | $1,199.99$1,129.99 at Newegg (save $70)
Forget an RTX 4060 laptop at this price point, you can secure yourself an RTX 4070 for the same money. Not only does this machine come with a bigger GPU than most for the money, the rest of this laptop is awesome, too. A fantastic Ryzen 7040-series CPU is paired with 16 GB of DDR5 and a 1600p screen. Only downside is that 512 GB SSD, though you could swap it out for something bigger.
The reason we like a sales event such as Prime Day is because it convinces retailers to drop prices on gaming laptops that were already pretty competitive. Like these RTX 4070 gaming laptops below: you could have picked up any one of these for a reasonable price over the past few months, but thanks to Prime Day pressure, retailers across the US are now discounting them further.
The cheapest RTX 4070 gaming laptop I could find for Prime Day is the Acer Nitro 16. It's on sale over at Newegg for $1,130, with a $70 saving.
This Nitro 16 comes equipped with a Ryzen 7 7735HS processor, an eight-core/16-thread processor with heaps of performance. It's paired with 16 GB of DDR5 RAM. So far, so good. In combination with the RTX 4070 mobile GPU at its core, this laptop should take good advantage of its 2560 x 1600 screen—that's a 16:10 aspect ratio for more viewing space—and 165 Hz refresh rate.
The only downside to this Nitro model is that it comes with only a 512 GB SSD. That said, this laptop appears to have a space NVMe slot within for an easy upgrade should you wish to buy a cheap 1 TB SSD and fit it yourself.
If you're not the type to tinker then it's not much more money to swap the Nitro 16 for the Acer Predator 14, available at Amazon for $1,150. This features the same RTX 4070 GPU except a Core i7 13700H processor. It's also equipped with a 1600p screen, 16 GB DDR5 and a 1 TB SSD.
