FULL STORY ======================================================================

No need to wait for Black Friday if you're shopping for a new budget gaming laptop. Right now, I've spotted this HP Victus 15 with RTX 4050 at Best Buy for $649.99 ($899.99) .

The HP Victus 15 is a staple in HP's gaming line that refreshes every so
often with more modern processors and graphics cards. Throughout the years, it's kept a reputation as a sturdy gaming laptop for folks who don't want to drop $1,000 on a portable PC but still need solid entry-level performance for undemanding games. Today's best budget gaming laptop deal

The HP Victus 15 is a basic but reliable laptop for gamers on a budget. For less than $650, you get an AMD Ryzen 5 processor, RTX 4050 graphics card,
16GB RAM, and 512GB SSD. These specs aren't particularly mind-blowing, but they're decent for your first gaming laptop or passable in a pinch. Even a mid-range laptop costs north of $1,000 these days, so this is good value if you just want to play simpler or undemanding games such as Roblox and Fortnite. View Deal

We didn't review this exact HP Victus, but we did review one with the same GPU. In our HP Victus 15 review , we praised the gaming performance and professional aesthetic that works well for doubling as a work laptop.

This Victus 15 forgoes the latest hardware for more modest specs, including
an AMD Ryzen 5 processor, RTX 4050 graphics card, 16GB RAM, and 512GB SSD.
You probably can't run Cyberpunk 2077 at max settings, but it's plenty for playing PC games at 1080p and browsing the web for work. In fact, the 144Hz refresh rate is reasonable for even fast-paced games like Fortnite and Valorant.

The HP Victus 15 also has a larger version, the HP Victus 16 . For more, see our best budget gaming laptops .
