Starting the list at number five is MSI GF65 Thin 9SEXR. Powerful performance at good bargain.
The MSI GF65 Thin 9SEXR features a 144 hertz display and a strong Nvidia RTX
2060 graphics card which when combined with the Intel ninth Gen i7 CPU results in a very
powerful gaming machine on this list at an affordable price. The MSI GF65 Thin 9SEXR
features a 144 hertz display and the horsepower necessary to run games at high frame rates.
While the Intel ninth Gen i7 does not quite equal the performance of some of the AMD CPUs
on this video the NVIDIA RTX 2060 GPU is the best available for a $1,000 budget and two work
well together. The only recommendation we have is that you consider updating the eight gigabytes ram
you won't get much battery life out of this machine while it's unplugged and it's one of
the heavier laptops on this list. But this is a reasonable trade off for what you receive.
The pros are lightweight for a gaming laptop 120 hertz FHD screen, Dlss 2.0 support,
affordable, lots of graphics power and the cons are short battery life, plastic construction,
eight gigabyte single channel memory. Next at number four is HP Pavilion 15 best budget gaming
laptop. If you don't have much more than $700 to spend but require a 1080 P laptop capable
of playing virtually any game without issue this HP Pavilion gaming laptop is worth considering.
It is one of the more economical options on this list coming in at little under $760.
This HP Pavilion features an AMD Ryzen 5 4600H processor, a GeForce GTX 1650 graphics card,
eight gigabytes of RAM and a 256 gigabyte solid state drive.
Additionally, it features a 15.6 inch 1080P 144 hertz display. That's pretty good for about $750
gaming laptop, as it features a powerful enough hardware configuration to allow you to play most
games at maximum settings and on medium settings for more demanding titles. Thus, if you're on a
budget and can't afford the Acer Nitro or Lenovo Legion, this HP Pavilion laptop is a viable
choice. For a detailed review of this laptop, click the link on the top right corner. The pros
are capable display with 144 hertz refresh rate, great performance, decent battery life, good color
accuracy, and the cons are heavy, poor touchpad and noisy. Coming in at number three is Acer Nitro
5 2021 edition. Best Value gaming laptop. Despite being far less expensive than some of the other
alternatives on this list. The Acer nitro five is one of the finest gaming laptops under $1,000
currently available. The Acer nitro five is powered by 10th gen intel core i5 processor,
an RTX 3050 graphics card, eight gigabytes of RAM and a 256 gigabytes NVMe SSD.
Additionally, it features a 15.6 inch 10 ATP display with a 144 hertz refresh rate. The 10th
Gen Core i Five and RTX 3050 GPU are powerful enough to run virtually any game at its highest
settings on a 10 ATP display. Additionally, the 144 hertz refresh rate will significantly
improve game performance. This is especially true for competitive games like Rocket League,
Call of Duty and Fortnite require split second decisions. The one disadvantage of this Acer
gaming laptop is that it comes with a limited amount of storage out of the box. Although the 256
gigabyte SSD is speedy, it is unlikely to be large enough to hold the average PC gamers collection.
You may always purchase an additional 2.5 inch drive if you require additional storage
The pros are competitive performance for the price
run surprisingly cool and quiet with demanding loads fast 144 hertz IPS screen
and the cons low storage heavy and bulky case no biometrics card reader or USB C port.
Next on the list is Asus ROG Strix G15. Our runner up pick, the 15.6 inch Asus ROG Strix
G15 is another inexpensive gaming laptop that cleverly balances performance and portability.
This laptop is powered by an AMD Ryzen 7 4800 processor, eight gigabyte of RAM and a
512 gigabyte SSD and features an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 graphics card. It is a virtual reality
ready machine with an FHD display and a 144 hertz refresh rate for excellent gaming experiences.
This device's mobility is enhanced with Wi Fi 6 for seamless internet connectivity.
This is certain to appeal to digital gaming lovers. With a weight of 5.29 pounds and a
profile thickness of one inch. It is an excellent travel companion for a computer of this level.
The HDMI output enables connection to external monitors while the five
hour battery life enables some unplug to use. Additionally, you may take advantage of an RGB
illuminated keyboard which gives it a particular atmosphere of glitz to all gaming pursuits.
The pros are plenty of power for triple A gaming, superb 144 hertz screen, easily upgradeable,
support Wi Fi 6. While the cons are no webcam, no SD card slot and Thunderbolt support.
And finally, our number one is Lenovo Legion five. Overall best gaming laptop under $1,000.
Our current recommendation for the best gaming laptop under $1,000 is the Lenovo Legion five.
This Lenovo gaming laptop is equipped with an AMD Ryzen 7 5800H processor,
an RTX 3050 Ti graphics card, 16 gigabytes of RAM and a 512 gigabyte solid state drive.
Additionally, it features a bigger 15.3 inch 1080P 165 hertz display. With a Ryzen 7 CPU
RTX 3050 Ti GPU and 16 gigabytes of RAM this laptop is capable of maxing out any game.
Not to mention the 165 hertz refresh rate display ensures a very fluid in game experience.
The one disadvantage of this Ryzen seven gaming laptop is that it is technically not under $1,000.
Rather, it's a little bit above it. However, for the additional amount you receive a faster
processor, a more powerful GPU, more RAM and a higher refresh rate than the alternatives.
The pros are a great CPU and a smooth, capable graphics card, robust design, high quality
keyboard, loads of ports, while the cons are underwhelming display thicker and heavier than
competitors. Finally, if you have $1,000 to spend on a new laptop, this laptop will provide you with
a far superior hardware configuration than any of the other sub $1,000 gaming laptops available.
