Prepare yourself, right now as all these superb Memorial Day deals(opens in new tab) are surfacing, this beefy MSI GE66 Raider is the cheapest it's ever been. With a GPU/CPU combo like that, it won't last long in the sales; there aren't many left either so now's the time to splurge on a gaming laptop if there ever was one.
For just $1,679(opens in new tab) (which is $620 off the usual $2,299 asking price), you'll be getting a smashing current-gen Nvidia GPU, coupled with a powerful 8-core, 16-thread 11th Gen Intel CPU. With a spec like that, you'll be shooting through those frames, even at the Raider's native 1440p resolution.
MSI GE66 Raider | Nvidia RTX 3070 | Intel Core i7 11800H | 15.6-inch | 1440p | 240Hz | 16GB RAM | 1TB NVMe SSD | $2,299 $1,679 at Amazon (save $620)(opens in new tab) A pretty intense combo here; that 11th Gen CPU and 30 series GeForce RTX 3070 will be able to make the most of this laptop's UHD panel, which tops out at 240Hz for anyone looking to game competitively. It's not cheap (though that's quite a discount), but together with a decent chunk of RAM and NVMe storage, it'll see you through whatever you throw at it.
And if the UHD panel resolution doesn't get you excited, the fact it's got a 240Hz refresh rate certainly should. That means smooth frames even if you manage to push your framerates a fair way past the 200fps mark.
Of course, if you want to play high fidelity games on this one, and marvel at all the super duper textures, you'll need that 1TB of storage. And you'll be glad of the NVMe speeds, too.
All that's on top of just the right amount of RAM for a gaming laptop, and a rather sexy chassis to boot.
