Even though we're slowly inching closer to the annual Memorial Day sales, there are a ton of fantastic gaming laptop deals this week that prove you don't have to have patience to be rewarded...

First up, this Dell G5 15 SE over at the official Dell Store for $685.99 (was $929.99) is looking like an amazing pound-for-pound buy if you're strictly on a budget. Being manned with exclusively AMD components - A Ryzen 5-4800H processor, Radeon RX5600M graphics card, 8GB of RAM, and 256GB SSD to be precise - gives this one some great bang for the buck. Don't get us wrong, it's not that powerful, but for 1080p gaming on a budget, you can do far, far worse.

If you're shopping for that perfect mid-range gaming laptop deal then we heartily recommend this 15.6-inch Evoo from Walmart. Ok, so it's a Walmart 'own-brand' machine but that doesn't mean it doesn't pack some serious components. To be specific, this one's got a Ryzen 7-4800H, RTX 2060, 16GB of RAM, and a 512GB SSD, making it one exceptionally powerful laptop for the money.

Got a little more to spend? This new Dell G15 isn't exactly what you'd call a cheap gaming laptop deal, but it's still a great buy if you want something up to date that will last a good few years. With a combination of an Intel Core i7-10870H, 16GB of RAM, 512GB SSD, and crucially an RTX 3060 graphics card, this one's going to let you max out even the latest games with ease.
