Best Buy has just slashed $200 off this Asus TUF gaming laptop, that brings it down to just $599. This machine comes packing an Intel Core i5 CPU, Nvidia GeForce RTX 3050 GPU, 512GB SSD and 8GB of RAM.

View Deal (opens in new tab) This Asus laptop comes sporting an 11th Gen Intel Core i5 processor, and is also powered by a Nvidia GeForce RTX 3050 graphics card and 8GB of RAM. It's not a machine for ultra-high-performance gaming, and the amount of RAM will put limits on some multitaskings, but with these specs you should still have enough power to play plenty of the best PC games at medium settings. Plus, with a 512GB SSD you'll have all the room you need to store them. This Asus TUF packs a 15.6-inch HD display with an impressive 144Hz refresh rate, and we appreciate the relatively thin bezels. Weighing in at just 5 pounds, it's extremely portable with a slim overall profile of just 0.96-inch, making it ideal for gaming on the go. The lack of a HDMI port for big-screen gaming is a disappointment, but otherwise, this Asus boasts a USB-C thunderbolt 4 port, USB-C 3.2 and two USB-A 3.2 ports. Picking up one of the best gaming laptops is usually a pretty expensive purchase, but thanks to this Best Buy deal you can score a midrange Asus machine for a very reasonable price.
