If you're looking for a powerful gaming laptop that won't break the bank, consider picking up the Dell G15 for $899.99 (was $1,199) at the official Dell store this week.

The potent combination of an RTX 4060 graphics card, 1TB SSD, and 13th gen Intel Core i7 make this one an absolute steal at this price - notably because Dell is offering an exceptional $300 discount.

Overall, the G15 isn't a premium machine but it does offer almost unbeatable bang for the buck at this price point if you're aiming at gaming at 1080p. At this resolution, the RTX 4060 should be able to handle most games no sweat and you've also got the massive bonus of a large 1TB SSD right out the box. That'll give you more than enough space for multiple game installs at once.

As with most cheap gaming laptop deals, the Dell G15 is a bit on the bulky side. You do, however, get an absolutely ridiculous 360Hz refresh rate display included, which is another thing you rarely see on gaming laptops at this price point.
