Best Buy's latest gaming laptop deals offer up to $450 off the latest RTX 5070 and 5060 models

Late August isn't typically known for deals on gaming laptops, but Best Buy has some excellent choices right now - especially if you're looking for a price cut on one of the latest RTX 5000 series models.

Right now, for example, you can get this Gigabyte Aero X16 with an RTX 5070 graphics card for just $1,299 (was $1,649), which seems like an incredible deal to me considering this configuration is brand new. Under the hood, you're getting not just an RTX 5070, but also a Ryzen 7 350 chipset, 32GB of RAM, and 1TB SSD, which are extremely impressive at this price point.

Another highlight today is the Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 for $1,349 (was $1,799) at Best Buy. This is one I always include when it's on sale because it's a model that we've always highly rated (and loved) here at TechRadar. At 14 inches, it's the perfect college, work, and gaming laptop - and you also get an RTX 5060 and AMD Ryzen 9 chipset for good measure.

If you're a college student about to head out for your first semester, then either one of these machines is a decent buy right now. I've also attached a few more great gaming laptop deals from Best Buy in more detail just down below.
