These are our picks for the hottest Cyber Monday gaming laptop deals still live today
pcgamer.comAh, my first ever Cyber Monday. Well, not really my first, as I've been buying, selling, and reviewing PC hardware since the late 1990s, but this is the first one where I've really sat up and paid attention to exactly what deals are out there.
And as far as gaming laptops are concerned, there's only one that I would personally buy. Not because the others aren't great, it's just this one hits all of the things I want from a gaming laptop.
MSI Vector | RTX 4080 | Intel Core i9 12900HX | 16GB DDR5-4800 | 1TB SSD | 1200p | 144Hz | $2,099$1,599 at Newegg (save $500)
This MSI Vector model uses the full-spec 175W RTX 4080, whereas many other designs tend to go with a lower-power version. Sure, it's no looker and it's pretty chunky, and I'd rather have a higher refresh rate panel and a bit more RAM, but at this price, it's nigh on perfect.
Price check: Amazon $2,091.05
When it comes to gaming, you really want the best GPU you can get for your money. And there are plenty of RTX 4080 gaming laptops around, but this one is quite special, as MSI has given it the maximum power limit and clock speeds. Unlike other brands, which drop these down a bit, here you're getting the full shebang.
Naturally, you have to pay for that in some way, and in this case, it's the amount and speed of the RAM, and the LCD panel isn't as fast as others. But it's all perfectly acceptable to me. I just want the best laptop GPU for my money and this deals wins easily.
