Best Amazon Prime Day gaming laptop deals - I'm finding the best prices on your next mobile gaming machine

This is the cheapest we've found an RTX 5050 gaming laptop we'd actually buy for a while. There are others, but you may well be looking at a 45 W TGP in those cases. For budget gaming laptops I would absolutely make sure to track down the wattage the GPU is specced to run at before making a purchase. The 75 W RTX 5050 isn't terrible, but it's not the highest you'll find—although it will be pretty capable with the 1080p screen attached to it.

Budget gaming laptops deals are not great right now, indeed finding good RTX 5060 laptops below the $1,000 mark has become virtually impossible. This Lenovo LOQ machine is above that figure, but it does have a decent 100 W GPU, a speedy 1080p screen, and the now miserably familiar memory/storage combo of a 512 GB SSD and 16 GB RAM. The memory side wouldn't be too bad if it wasn't for the fact it's single channel, but in our review that didn't actually harm gaming performance.

In these RAMpocalypse-infested times, you have to sacrifice something to get a good gaming laptop at an affordable price, and in this case, it's the GPU's power limit—just 85 W, which lowers the chip's full capabilities. At least everything else is nice for the money, and it's plenty skinny. This is the cheapest RTX 5070 machine I can find right now I'd buy with my own cash, and a pretty sweet deal when most of the competition is ranging around the $1,500 mark.

This is a lot to pay for an RTX 5060 gaming laptop, but once you take into account the fact you're getting a 240 Hz OLED panel thrown into the bargain, this deal makes a lot more sense—although I have seen it for cheaper in recent months. Being a 1600p display, the 115 W RTX 5060 mobile here will need some DLSS and MFG help to make the most of it at native res, but this is still a slim and sleek machine with a very high desirability factor.

Thought 32 GB gaming laptop deals were dead? So did I, to be honest. But this one's a peach for the cash, given that RAM prices are utterly ludicrous right now. It's also got a 240 Hz IPS display, a 115 W RTX 5070 mobile, and a chonky 24-core Intel CPU. Be still, my beating heart.

This Legion lappy used to be cheaper, but as the memory crisis pushes gaming laptop pricing ever higher, it's jumped recently. Even at this price, though, it's a very well-equipped machine well worth considering, with an extremely powerful Intel chip at its heart, a beautiful OLED panel, and a 1 TB SSD. It's a shame about the 16 GB of RAM—but it's still plenty to get gaming with, and given the state of the memory market at the moment, it's about the best you can hope for at this sort of cash.

The G16 has been a firm favorite here at PC Gamer since Asus started wrapping them in milled aluminium chassis designs, and this one's got that super slim, super sleek feel. What you're getting here for the cash is a very portable form factor, a hyper-premium design, and a 240 Hz OLED. Some of the new models are a little noisy thanks to some saw-toothed fan profiles and hot-running Intel chips, as we found in our review of the RTX 5080 version, but this is still a gaming laptop I'd be happy to call my own.

Key specs: RTX 5070 (105 W) | Core Ultra 9 285H | 16-inch | 1600p | 240 Hz OLED | 16 GB DDR5 | 1 TB SSD

This particular lappy has 32 GB of DDR5, a 10-core AMD Ryzen AI 9 processor, and a 240 Hz screen for fairly reasonable money. And of course, it's all being driven by a 115 W RTX 5070 mobile, which should do rather nicely. You'll need some DLSS assistance to make the most of the refresh rate (particularly at 1600p), but this machine has a good chunk of premium hardware for more reasonable cash.

Key specs: RTX 5070 | Ryzen AI 9 365 | 16-inch | 1600p | 240 Hz | 32 GB DDR5 | 1 TB SSD

This is a pretty powerful gaming laptop for the money, although it used to turn up on discount for a bit cheaper. First, you get that RTX 5070 mobile GPU, which is a very capable chip for a 1920 x 1200 resolution, especially with a 115 W TGP. And second, you get a 16-core, 32-thread AMD processor which is a mobile beast. Throw in 16 GB DDR5-5600 and a 1 TB SSD and you've got a lot of high-powered hardware with a decent saving.

I'm a big fan of this mildly anachronistic gaming laptop. It's thick, can be loud, but it delivers on gaming performance and does so for an affordable price tag. The RTX 5070 Ti at its heart is a quality 12 GB mobile GPU, has a 140 W power limit, and if you run it on balanced mode you'll still get good gaming performance on the 1200p screen but without the turbine whine of the fans. A great machine at a great price. I'd prefer more RAM and storage, but if it's gaming performance that's your priority, this will deliver.

This lappy has a honking, chonking, AMD Ryzen 9 8940HX CPU throbbing away in its RGB lit chassis. It's a 16-core 32-thread beastie from the previous generation, which, in combination with a 140 W RTX 5070 Ti mobile, should make for some serious gaming performance. The screen is a 165 Hz 1200p model, too, which the graphics chip should have no problem maxing out in most games.

This Vector is still one of the cheapest RTX 5080 gaming laptops you can find right now, but it has jumped in price recently. Our Dave reviewed the Vector 16 HX AI last year and likes the value proposition you get when you take into account that mega GPU, although it is a bit of a hairdryer on full whack. Still, stick it in Balanced mode and the noise is much more reasonable.

Our best high-performance gaming laptop pick features a monstrous collection of components. The RTX 5080 is a full-strength 175 W variant, the panel is a 240 Hz OLED stunner, the Intel CPU is mega, and as our Dave found in his review, the gaming performance is simply excellent. It's one of the fastest laptops we've tested to date, yet comes wrapped in a chassis you'd actually want to show off—although it must be said, it's a pretty sizeable machine to lug around. Expensive, too, but at least it's about as fast as it gets.

Okay, so this model doesn't have the properly punchy Z2 Extreme chip of the ROG Xbox Ally X below. As such, it's nowhere near as powerful, and more suited to indie games rather than the demanding stuff. That being said, handheld gaming PCs are rising to silly prices right now, and this one's still got a super-comfortable chassis, a good screen, and the Xbox FSE interface.

Key specs: Ryzen Z2 A | 7-inch | 1080p | 144 Hz | 16 GB LPDDR5x | 512 GB SSD

It is a borderline ludicrous amount of cash to drop on a gaming handheld really, but the ROG Xbox Ally X is a truly great device. I thought the design ridiculous until I had my review unit in-hand. It's super comfortable to use, the new library makes Windows usable, and the Z2 Extreme chip is powerful. Could do with a bit of a discount, but this is the cheapest you'll find it today.

This laptop is a bit of a chonk, but for this sort of cash it's well worth considering. Our James reviewed a version with a different CPU last year, and found it to deliver good 1080p performance from its RTX 5060 mobile GPU. It's got a slightly dull screen, and the chassis design won't set your heart aflame, but you'll struggle to get more gaming performance for the price.

Key specs: RTX 5060 (115 W) | Core i5 13420H | 15.6-inch | 1080p | 144 Hz | 16 GB DDR5 | 1 TB SSD

RTX 5060 gaming laptops under £1,000 have become difficult to find, but this little Lenovo machine is still worth looking at for a fair chunk over. It's got a 115 W variant of the RTX 5060, which is a great match for its 1080p screen. Plus the CPU is decently beefy, and it's got a proper 1 TB SSD.

Key specs: RTX 5060 (115 W) | Core i7 13620H | 15.6-inch | 1200p | 165 Hz | 16 GB DDR5 | 1 TB SSD

We reviewed the RTX 5060 version of this laptop late last year, and found it to be good—with one primary caveat. The 85 W RTX 5060 at its core isn't the fastest variant you'll find, and this RTX 5070 version has the same power limit. However, the A16 has an excellent chassis design, a decently fast screen, and a great smattering of budget components that still make it a desirable thing, and the RTX 5070 version will still be pretty quick.

The Lenovo Legion 5i used to be found discount, but even at full price it's still a good deal. This model is still one of the cheaper RTX 5070 gaming laptops you'll find in the UK right now from a major manufacturer, and one that's worth some serious consideration. It's got a speedy Intel chip, a 115 W variant of Nvidia's mid-tier mobile GPU, and a proper 1 TB SSD, making it quite the catch. We love a Lenovo lappy, and this one makes a whole lot of sense.

We've been very impressed by the RTX 5080 version of this particular laptop for the value proposition it provides, and the RTX 5070 Ti variant is no slouch, either. While many RTX 50-series lappys are still priced into the stratosphere, this 16-inch machine isgood value for the components you end up receiving. That's apart from the SSD, unfortunately, which is far too small.

Although the RTX 5070 Ti here has had its wings clipped slightly with a 115 W TGP, it should thrash any RTX 5070-equipped lappy in the gaming benchmarks with very little issue. Plus, it's been combined with an eight-core, 16-thread CPU with plenty of get up and go, a 180 Hz 1600p screen, and a proper 1 TB SSD. I'd like to see some more RAM, but it's darn expensive to buy on its own right now, so bear that in mind if you're thinking of an upgrade.

RTX 5080 machines are still eye-wateringly expensive for the most part, but we're big fans of this Vector lappy, especially because of the price. It might not have the prettiest chassis, but it's as fast as a very, very fast thing for a fair bit cheaper than most of the competition—with a speedy 240 Hz IPS panel thrown into the bargain, too. That makes it a genuine value proposition in a laptop market filled with extremely pricey equivalents. It's a smart buy, no doubt, although I'd stick a touch more RAM in it—if you can find some for anything less than silly money.
