2024 has been a funny old year for new gaming laptops. We haven’t seen any new mobile tech from Nvidia and this year’s crop of processors from Intel and AMD have offered only minor upgrades. New AI features are a thing, sure, but they’re still in their infancy - and not quite mainstream enough to make a real dent in the performance of even the best gaming laptops outside of older systems like DLSS.
All of that means 2024 gaming laptops are stuck in a sort of limbo - and that’s excellent news for anyone on the hunt for Prime Day gaming laptop deals this summer. Amazon has traditionally never been particularly good with these specialist rigs, often pricing well over MSRP and stuffing its shelves with after-market configurations that few want or need. But Amazon’s not the only player in its annual sales anymore, and stores like Best Buy and Newegg are primed to offer some of the biggest offers we’ve seen yet.
