There are still some good Amazon Prime Day gaming laptop deals available, even as the two-day sale nears its technical end. The full gaming laptop spectrum is on offer, from the truly portable to the bulky desktop replacement, at a range of prices.
One highlight is the Gigabyte G5 KF , which comes in under $1,000. You'll want to add another 8GB of DDR4 memory to it, but otherwise it's a great budget laptop with an RTX 4060. For a high-end machine, the Lenovo Legion Pro 7i with an RTX 4080 is one of our top picks, on sale for $2,199.

Those and the other gaming laptop deals below are all solid picks. A couple of them only come with 512GB of SSD storage, which might limit you if you tend to play a variety of modern games, so keep in mind that you may end up wanting to upgrade them.
You'll also see a both 120Hz and 144Hz screens on these gaming laptops. Refresh rates, as we explain in our guide for the best gaming monitors, determine how many times the display refreshes per second. The higher it is, the more smooth a game can look. For esports-ey multiplayer games, a high refresh rate is ideal.
A game like Dave the Diver, however, doesn't benefit as much from a high refresh rate. For games like that, I'd look at a gaming laptop like the the Asus ROG X13 Flow.
Our list for the best Amazon Prime Day PC gaming deals includes some of our favorite gaming mice and gaming keyboards to pair with a new laptop. And if you're still on the fence about going portable, our guide for the best Prime Day gaming PC deals might help you compare.

Some games take a while to load on mobile, but once they start, the gameplay is smooth and exciting. I hope future updates improve mobile performance, but I still enjoy playing several hours a day.
