Need a new gaming laptop? These are my 7 favorite deals from the Memorial Day sales

Memorial Day sales are officially live, and if you’ve been thinking about upgrading your gaming setup, now’s the perfect time to score a great deal. Big-name retailers like Best Buy, Walmart, and Dell are all offering excellent price cuts on gaming laptops today.

I’ve searched through nearly every Memorial Day sale today to find a wide range of gaming laptops, including everything from entry-level models to high-performance machines packed with the latest hardware.

My picks start at just $649 for this incredibly good value RTX 4060-equipped MSI Thin at Walmart, but quickly escalate from there. You’ll also find price cuts on brand-new RTX 5000 series machines like this MSI Vector 16 HX with an RTX 5080 for $2,999 (was $3,499) at Newegg. I’ve also included some of the newest Alienware Area-51 models, just in case you’re interested in something really high-end.

Generally speaking, today’s price cuts are some of the best I’ve seen since Black Friday, although there isn’t quite as much variety on offer. There are good options across the various price ranges, however, so don’t miss out before the Memorial Day sales draw to a close.
