Portable gaming power is a luxurious thing. Simply being able to pick up your gaming machine and take it from room to room, on the sofa, in bed—or even, heavens help us, to work—means that your precious gaming rig suddenly becomes a thing of immense flexibility. And if it's got a proper RTX 4070 GPU onboard, you won't be hurting for desktop-like frame rates.
They're expensive though, right? Well, depends how you look at it. I've found three RTX 4070 gaming laptops for under $1,500 this Prime Day that I'd be proud to own, each of them capable of proper gaming performance for less than you might expect. And while calling them cheap might be pushing it, they're all extremely well-priced for the gaming experience they can deliver.

Still, it should deliver some proper mobile gaming firepower for a surprisingly small amount of cash

It's not much of a looker though, I will admit. And you might want to upgrade the single channel memory to 32 GB dual-channel RAM (which you can do for just $74, btw). But how about we sweeten the deal? This 16-inch lappy features a 1600p 240 Hz display, meaning that it's got a properly fast and vibrant panel to take advantage of all that gaming horsepower. 240 Hz is pretty much esports-level when it comes to screen speeds, so if you're a multiplayer shooter
