MSI Thin | RTX 4060 | Ryzen 9 8945HS | 15.6-inch | 1080p | 144 Hz | 1 TB SSD | 16 GB RAM | $1,199.99$739.99 after rebate at Newegg (save $460)
It's all here: an RTX 4060, 1 TB storage, and a lovely Ryzen 9 processor. The 1080p IPS with a 144 Hz refresh rate is a good fit, too. And all for a very appealing price. Though you do have to file a rebate to get this one down to the full discount, so make sure you definitely do that. Otherwise there are RTX 4070 laptops for less. Plus the chassis is pretty chunky, but that's to be expected at this price point.
We've seen a handful of pretty tempting gaming laptop and gaming PC deals over Black Friday and Cyber Monday, but I reckon this one is about the best we've seen for an entry into laptop gaming. It's one that I'd actually purchase myself.
In fact, in my own case, I'd probably pick this above some great value higher end laptops. That's because I think this MSI Thin for $740 at Newegg (after rebate) knows exactly what's most wanted out of a gaming laptop: 1080p gaming horsepower. That it has the ability to crunch through some productivity work if needed is a nice bonus, too, of course.
