As mentioned before an an earlier post today, there are very few premium laptop deals.  There is an i9 gaming laptop from Alienware that is over $800 off, but that is only about 25% of the retail sticker price. 

The best deals come from the entry level market stuff.  And even though HP has tossed its hat in the gaming laptop genre (and has some decent deals), with my experience using this brand it is likely I will never trust another HP product again.  They are just too cheap (and I am talking fall apart and blow their chips cheap).

And even though it took me all day, I did come up with a great deal...

The ASUS FX505 15 inch FullHD Gaming Laptop

This gaming laptop looks to be even better than my Dell Gaming laptop.  It offers a decent 8GB RAM to start you out, an Intel i7 (8750H) CPU & NVIDIA GTX1050Ti, which is a very nice, powerful and yet, not hot (and therefore not too noisy) GPU to handle the video display.  It comes with a 256GB M.2 SSD for the fastest data delivery, and has Gigabit Ethernet. 

The Black Friday Deal at Amazon for this one is $800 USD ($200 off Retail).

Although I doubt this deal will get any better on Cyber Monday (computers are no longer discounted well unless they start out cheap), I would say that this is a very capable machine with specs that will blow my Dell Gaming laptop away.  It even comes with Call of Duty: Black Ops 4, Gears of War 4 and Age of Empires Definitive Edition.

The CPU is an 8th Generation Intel Core i7-8750H processor, which means you have hyperthreading like crazy and up to 3.9GHz speeds.  Plus the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti comes with 4GB of dedicated video memory and can power hardware acceleration in not just games, but in 3D and video editing applications, as well.

This is a nice gaming plus video & photo editing platform beast for only $799.00!
