As someone who regularly follows the best cheap gaming laptop deals, I would say that January isn't usually a high point for bargains. This week's ongoing January sales, however, feature some great options for those looking to get prepared for 2025's much-anticipated line-up of releases.
For example, over at Amazon UK, you can pick up this Acer Nitro V with an RTX 4060 graphics card for £859.99 (was £1199).
If you're on the hunt for a decent budget machine that will last a few good years, then this one is a superb choice thanks to its hefty price cut and recent components. The combination of an 8th-gen Ryzen chipset, 16GB of RAM, and RTX 4060 means this one is more than capable of smooth frame rates on its native 16-inch 165Hz 1200p display.
Moving up in price, you can also get this Gigabyte G6 at Currys for £899 (was £1099) and this Medion Erazer for £999 (was £1,149) at Box – both fantastic options.
In the case of the former, you get a great RTX 4060 machine with a relatively understated design - something the Acer above arguably lacks. As for the Medion, it's a superb deal for a gaming laptop with a powerful RTX 4070 card, which is something you usually don't see for under £1,000.
