Starting today, Dell is offering a Dell G15 Ryzen Edition GeForce RTX 4060 Gaming Laptop for only $849.99 after a $250 instant discount. Alternatively, you can opt for the Dell G15 Intel Edition (with double the storage) for $899.99. If you're looking for a capable gaming laptop but don't want to pay extra for the Alienware brand name, then the G15 should be right up your alley.
Dell G15 RTX 4060 Gaming Laptop From $849.99
The G15 is Dell's line of 15" laptops that is marketed towards budget gamers. They offer solid gaming performance at a price that's usually about $300-$500 cheaper than a similar Alienware build. It's definitely one of the better budget gaming laptops you can get for under $1K.
The full specs include a 15" 1080p display, your choice of AMD Ryzen 7 7840HS or Intel Core i7-13650HX CPU, 16GB of DDR5-4800MHz RAM, and a 1TB SSD (on the Intel model, 512GB on the Ryzen model). The two processors perform similarly to one another and are capable chips for both multi-tasking and gaming. They certainly won't bottleneck the GeForce RTX 4060 mobile GPU.
Performance-wise, the RTX 4060 is a healthy jump in performance compared to the previous generation RTX 3060 GPU. In fact, it sits right in between the RTX 3070 and RTX 3070 Ti and offers plenty of horsepower to run pretty much any game smoothly on the native 1080p display. Additionally, RTX 40 series cards support DLSS 3.0, which gives you a substantial fps boost with very minimal drop in quality for games that support it; it's especially useful in gaming laptops where it's important to squeeze every bit of performance out of the GPU without using up too much battery power or generating too much heat in the small chassis.
If you're looking for something with even more power, or with a bigger and higher resolution display, check out the best Alienware and Dell gaming deals today. There may be more deals on Alienware m-series and x-series gaming laptops, but at a higher price.
