Prime Day FAQs

What's the difference between a gaming laptop and other laptops?

One of the biggest differences is that gaming laptops have more powerful graphics cards (GPUs), components that let them play modern games with realistic visuals. They also tend to have stronger processors (CPUs), meaning programs and files open faster and are better for multitasking. These laptops are great for users who want to play games, edit 4K videos, and quickly switch between dozens of apps.

More typical laptops can have a range of CPUs, from basic to advanced, to power productivity apps like a web browser or the Microsoft Office suite. They usually don't have a GPU and offer significantly better battery life, as well as lighter and more portable designs.

Design-wise, the best gaming laptops tend to be bigger and heavier, and battery life isn't great. But they're often outfitted with customizable lights that give the keyboard and chassis a sleek neon glow.

When it comes to price, the most powerful gaming laptops are far more expensive than any other kind of laptop. But it's not hard to find more affordable options, and many budget gaming laptops can still play all your favorite games, albeit with some performance caveats.

How much should I expect to pay for a good laptop?

Windows laptops range wildly in price, starting in the low hundreds and going up into the thousands. But in general, you should expect to pay at least $600 to $700 for a decent budget laptop, around $1,000 to $1,300 for a mid-range model, and upward of $1,600 for a really powerful PC.
