I’m a sucker for a great gaming laptop deal, and that’s why I couldn’t ignore the fact that Best Buy is selling the Alienware 16 Aurora with a hefty $350 discount. If you’re quick, you can snag this RTX-powered Intel Core 7 laptop for just $1,149.99. That’s a huge deal!
Here’s the configuration waiting for you in this machine: an Intel Core 7 240H processor that launched less than a year ago paired with a chunky 32GB of high-performance DDR5 RAM (two user-upgradeable slots) and a fast 1TB Gen 4 SSD (also two user-upgradeable slots). This laptop boasts a gorgeous 16-inch 2560×1600 screen with 120Hz refresh rate, which is great whether you’re doing work or relaxing with games.
But the kicker here is the RTX 5060 graphics card, unlocking access to Nvidia’s DLSS 4 for an awesome gaming experience with current-gen 3D titles and ones to come for several years. It’s bolstered by a rich interface (full-sized HDMI, dual USB-C, dual USB-A, LAN), speedy Wi-Fi 7, and a 6-cell battery with approximately 10 hours in our review of this laptop.
Our reviewing expert Chris Hoffman thought this laptop was too pricey for the parts, but it’s a much better deal with this sizable price drop. Score the Alienware 16 Aurora for $350 off while you can! Or if you want to go a bit cheaper, see the best gaming laptops under $1,000.
