I've found a cheap RTX 5070 gaming laptop you'll actually want to buy, an increasingly rare thing in these uncertain times

Just call me Captain Deals. On second thoughts, don't.

Still, it's got a 1200p 165 Hz panel to drive, which shouldn't be too taxing on even a power-limited mid-range Nvidia graphics chip. And while the Intel Core i7 13620H CPU at its heart isn't the most powerful, its six Performance and four Efficient cores should still make quick work of modern games.

Finishing out the specs sheet, you get 16 GB of DDR5-5200 and a 1 TB SSD. Nothing particularly interesting to report there, but both are perfectly reasonable in 2026. I'd like to say you might want to upgrade the RAM to 32 GB, but given current prices, I'd say it's a much better idea to hold off.

What goes up must come down, right? Right? Anyway, this lappy is good to go right now, and it's a darn sight cheaper than almost all of its competition. It's got plenty of bang for your buck, all wrapped up in a chassis that might make your friends jealous. Nice.
