Alienware m16 RTX 4070 Gaming Laptop for $1599.99
This Alienware m16 laptop comes equipped with a 16" 2560x1600 QHD+ display, the latest Intel Core i7-13700HX CPU, GeForce RTX 4070 GPU, 16GB of DDR5-4800MHz RAM and a 1TGB SSD. The 13th generation Intel Core i7-13700HX Raptor Lake CPU features a 5GHz turbo boost clock with 16 cores, 24 threads, and a 30MB cache. The Intel Core i7 Raptor Lake CPUs are among the fastest mobile gaming chips on the market. In terms of gaming performance, it's on the same level as the Core i9.
The RTX 4070 mobile GPU performs on par with the RTX 3080. It's a little bit faster than the RTX 3070 Ti but not quite as powerful as the RTX 3080 Ti. You'll need this kind of power to run games comfortably on the laptop's beefed up 2560x1600 or QHD+ display. Compared to RTX 30 series cards, RTX 40 series cards also support new features like DLSS 3.0, which is essentially DLSS 2.0 plus frame generation. For games that support it (like Diablo 4) this can be a pretty signifcant FPS increase over even DLSS 2.0.

Alternatively you can opt for the RTX 4060 equipped model for about $150 less. Performance-wise, the RTX 4060 mobile GPU sits right in between the RTX 3070 and RTX 3070 Ti. It still offers enough power to run games on the native 2560x1600 QHD+, especially with DLSS 3.0 enabled.
