Gaming laptops currently available provide an ideal balance between power and portability, accommodating triple-A demanding games without being cumbersome to transport or carry around.
They offer both great screen quality and performance at an excellent value for money. Most monitors force users to choose between sharp resolution and fast refresh rate; but with the GS76 Stealth you don’t have to make that sacrifice!
Acer Nitro 5
Input may receive a portion of sales from purchases made via links found on this page, though prices and availability are subject to change.
The Nitro 5 gaming laptop stands out as one of the more affordable offerings with an Nvidia GeForce RTX 30 series GPU, and among the first to feature Intel’s latest 12th generation processor. More expensive configurations provide access to seventh-gen Intel processors while offering more memory and storage.
Even our budget Acer Nitro 5 packs impressive performance for its price; most modern AAA games run smoothly at 60 frames per second or better on 1080p resolution with ray tracing enabled and at 60 FPS in 1080p resolution with non-Ti GPU models rather than our Ti model GPU we tested.
The display may not be as sharp as some premium models, but it still covers most of the sRGB color gamut and features an antiglare coating to maintain an acceptable brightness level. Plus, there is plenty of ports to choose from!
Asus ROG Zephyrus Duo 16
This machine reworks the traditional laptop form factor to create an innovative dual-screen device. The mini LED display boasts vivid color reproduction that rivals top gaming laptops and supports Dolby Vision HDR for color accuracy and Pantone validation.
The secondary display raises above the keyboard to reveal a small window offering direct views of your motherboard and colourful RGB accents, known as Asus’ Fearless Eye feature. One of its signature characteristics, Fearless Eye makes the Zephyrus Duo 16 even more unique and distinguishing features.
The chassis itself is fairly chunky and may not fit easily in most laptop sleeves, weighing in at over 5.5 pounds and being 0.8-inches thick. But its design feels cool; we like how Asus has gone for more subtle purple and pink holographic colors for its gaming laptops instead of using standard red/blue schemes that most gaming laptops utilize – an impressive feat of engineering nonetheless! The Asus ROG Zephyrus Duo 16 stands as an impressive piece of engineering technology.
MSI GS76 Stealth
The MSI GS76 Stealth stands out as one of the premier fantasy gaming laptops available today, boasting high-end components in an extremely portable package. It boasts comfortable keyboard and trackpad use as well as plentiful ports – not forgetting its stunning 17″ display!
The GS76 is an elegant machine measuring only 23mm at its thickest point. All matte black in color with a shimmery dragon logo on its lid that only appears under certain lighting conditions.
Inside the GS76 is an Intel Core i9 processor with speeds reaching up to 4.9GHz for optimal gaming and multitasking experiences. Next-gen PCIe Gen4 Lanes provide hyperspeed performance for storage and graphics cards compared with prior generations of PCIe; giving this laptop an immediate loading boost over previous generations of PCIe. *Performance results may differ depending on configuration; please contact manufacturer for specific details. Note: Some games may require additional software to run smoothly.
MSI Raider GE67 HX
For gamers who seek something that stands out, the MSI Raider GE67 HX gaming laptop is an outstanding choice. From its rugged finish and signature MSI branding on the lid to large heat vents on its sides and back and RGB light bar on the front – everything about it speaks “gaming.”
Inside the Raider HX lies an impressive combination of hardware that ensures seamless performance when playing resource-intensive games such as Shadow of the Tomb Raider. An Intel Core i9 processor and Nvidia GeForce RTX 30 series graphics card deliver exceptional performance, while high-speed PCIe NVMe storage offers quick loading times.
The Raider HX’s 15.6-inch QHD OLED display offers incredible image clarity and high refresh rates to eliminate motion blur, with variable refresh rate support to minimize screen tearing, high contrast ratio, and deep blacks produced through its variable refresh rate feature.
