The two best gaming laptops lead the early Walmart Black Friday deals
Get a great gaming laptop for $750 or a beastly rig for almost $1,100
It’s almost impossible to find a gaming laptop that’s truly affordable. But thanks to a spectacular early Walmart Black Friday deal you can do just that with the $749 Lenovo IdeaPad Gaming 3.
The Lenovo IdeaPad Gaming 3 is a thoroughly modern gaming laptop that’s currently $300 off, making it one of the most affordable gaming laptops this holiday season. Along with the savings, this laptop feature a brand new Ryzen 7 processor and Nvidia RTX 4050 graphics.
That’s enough power to let you play Counter-Strike 2, Valorant, Overwatch 2, League of Legends, Rocket League, or any competitive online game. The Nvidia RTX 3050 isn’t the world’s most powerful GPU, but thanks to DLSS 3 you’ll be able to play most modern PC games at 60fps without sacrificing too much on graphics.
Now if you’re looking for a gaming laptop that’s a bit newer and more powerful, the best early Black Friday deal we’ve seen so far is the Acer Nitro 16 going for $1,129. It comes sporting the latest components with an AMD Ryzen 7 CPU and Nvidia RTX 4070 GPU. This machine not only pumps out better visuals, but its higher resolution 1440p display will make everything look better too.
Normally, a gaming laptop this good would cost around $1,300-1,800 or more, but thanks to a $170 off deal at Walmart, you can pick up this laptop for almost $1,100.
And if gaming laptops aren’t your jam, we’d also rounded up the best Walmart deals for Black Friday, many of which are also available now. Stay tuned as we’ll highlight all of the best Black Friday deals throughout the month.
