If you're looking for a solid and affordable entry-level gaming laptop then I've picked out this Lenovo LOQ Gaming Laptop at Best Buy for $799.99 (was $999.99). The Lenovo LOQ 15 has had a couple of upgrades since the original launch.

That's because the HP Omen Transcend 14 is $1,299 @ Best Buy for a limited time, discounted from the usual $1,699 asking price. That's a substantial savings of $400 off this svelte and elegant gaming laptop, which has the added strength of looking like a low-key ultraportable when closed so you won't raise eyebrows at the coffee shop.

Amazon is offering a tremendous discount on an Asus gaming laptop with Intel Core i7 and Nvidia RTX 4060, amounting to $230 savings.

Of course, the big question with this particular deal is - will it get any cheaper over the Black Friday deals event in November? There's always a possibility, but I think there's also the potential for this particular listing to sell out well ahead of November.
